also so here for a 3:30+ length song with an intro and bridge. the sea of 2:20 adhd songs has grown very tiring!!

Yes it's so good to see her working with Max again! Ari posted this behind the scenes footage with him:

Happy that she’s #1 in the First Look chart although a 2k gap is small, hmm. Physicals watch: CDs and cassettes shipping tomorrow, vinyl Wednesday. It's a shame about the price of them :(

Dropped below Lovin on Me on US Apple Music. The #1 debut on Hot 100 might be out of reach I fear.

Lyric video now posted:

 

Good move there, should hopefully boost the streaming points a bit. I'm sensing with that gap though that it'll end up #2. That 'no tears' legacy.

 

Yes, they need to pull all the stops this week - next week Noah & Sophie will be too far away I reckon.

I'm absolutely obsessed with this — that intro gets me every time.

The early Hot 100 prediction from Talk of the Charts on Twitter has Jack ahead but not by a huge amount (261 points to 254, #3 on 180 so top 2 is guaranteed barring anything unforeseen, have seen bigger early gaps than that overturned plenty of times before). I think Jack is likely to hold on but Ari still in with a chance especially if she does something to push it more by the end of the week. Not sure if these predictions account for physical sales or not?

My cd shipped! I really hope she can clinch it this week as Noah has physicals next week so he’ll get back there either way!

My CD has shipped now too! Looks like they’re ramping up the U.S. push:

A 5 minute extended version? Omg 🤩 time to dust off my iTunes account

Oh yas an extended mix sounds great for this!

 

Hopefully these extra versions may be able to bridge the gap for a US #1 debut then.

#2 in the mids, 200 units behind Noah. I guess it's between Ari and Sophie now for #2

I have downloaded the extended mix, it's glorious :cheeseblock:

Up to 531K on Spotify today. Only 44K away from Sophie as well now!

 

She's here :cheer: I wish the extended version had been added as a track 2.

 

obsessed.

Oh this is making progress again on the streaming charts now that the weekend is over?

 

I am shocked. SHOCKED.

 

 

obsessed.

Omg :heart: now available on Spotify/Apple etc. too! I was expecting them to give it a couple more days to lock in further downloads but not complaining *.*

The #1 push intensifies: acapella, slow and sped up versions released!

Ariana is back up to #1 in the mids today presumably off the back of CDs/cassettes and downloads but it's so close eeeek

 

1 Ariana Grande - yes, and? (43,447) *

2 Noah Kahan - Stick Season (42,761)

 

Hoping the vinyl sales haven't been counted yet as mine only shipped today and of course there are a few more versions that can be downloaded as of this morning. Off to buy the acapella one :')
