why PJ decided to release this week? they have quite the hardcore fanbase to multibuy and get the #1 in a regular week I reckon

I guess they’re just not that fussed, it’s not like they’d be near #1 in the US.

the point is that they could have been #1 another week

 

and let's not start with the labels/artists don't care bullshit

If they were bothered about being #1 in the UK (or anywhere), they wouldn’t have released on this date. It’s clearly not a priority for their release plans.

Taylor keeping Pet Shop Boys from #1 would be karma after they slated her this week.
What did they say?

It's just his opinion, doesn't bother me.

 

He noted that Swift’s music fell short of his expectations for an artist of her success level and claimed her discography didn’t stand up to those of pop stars like Michael Jackson.

 

“What is Taylor Swift’s ‘Billie Jean’?” he asked. “‘Shake It Off’? I listened to that the other day and it is not ‘Billie Jean’, is it?” Tennant said, according to The Mirror.

 

The “It’s a Sin” musician added he likes Swift’s music because it “brings people together” but “the one disappointing thing is the music, not the lyrics”.

 

Elsewhere at the event, during which the Pet Shop Boys’ new album Nonetheless was played publicly for the first time, Tennant also critiqued Swift’s practice of drawing inspiration from her love life for lyrics.

 

“To have a successful pop career now you have to have a series of relationships, which are amazing and then break up tragically,” he said. “In the world of pop, people don’t write songs like ‘Karma Chameleon’ anymore,” the singer claimed.
