'we can't be friends (wait for your love)' will hopefully reach #1 soon. The top 3 looks set-in-stone now.

Hi all! Glad to see the albums going down so well! It's definately a favourite of mine, I'd probably rank it my 3rd favourite of hers, love the cohesion, 'yes, and?' honestly seems the most out of place. Here's my ranking of the album, 'don't wanna break up again' and 'imperfect for you' have been my biggest growers. Hoping 'supernatural' will be a single at some point plus either 'the boy is mine' or 'bye'.

 

01. supernatural

02. we can't be friends (wait for your love)

03. yes, and?

04. the boy is mine

05. bye

06. don't wanna break up again

07. i wish i hated you

08. true story

09. eternal sunshine

10. imperfect for you

11. intro (end of the world)

12. ordinary things (feat. Nonna)

13. Saturn Returns Interlude

 

supernatural is just as good with Troye, I love both versions. :heart: I'm still waiting for my CD to come in the mail.

101. Saturn Returns Interlude

 

 

'we can't be friends (wait for your love)' will hopefully reach #1 soon. The top 3 looks set-in-stone now.

This album becomes Ariana’s 5th consecutive U.K. #1 album :cheer: looking forward to finding out the sales

 

‘bye’ just announced as the first of three tracks charting from it, at #13 ^_^

Amazing news!

 

Someone else may confirm this but I *think* it’s just Madonna and Taylor who’ve managed 5 consecutive studio albums in a row to get to the UK albums #1 amongst females. I had a look earlier at the females with the most number one albums and I think Ari has joined that trio who’ve done five in a row :wub:

Edited March 15, 20241 yr by JLJ

First week U.K. album sales are in: 38,207 [5,760 CDs, 6,527 vinyl, 247 cassettes, 880 downloads, 24,793 streaming]

 

A 39% increase on the first week of positions :cheeseblock:

Those are fantastic sales :cheer: I think the album might even stay at #1 next week (I think JT is the only main competition, unless I'm forgetting someone else).

Hopefully the album will serve some pretty good longevity going by its streaming stability so far.

 

#1 in the U.S. confirmed too:

One final Spotify update to complete the week. 9/13 of the tracks still in the top 50 and every track comfortably in the top 100 : :clap:

 

In the official chart 'we can't be friends (wait for your love)' ends up at #3, 'yes, and?' is #6 and 'bye' is #13.

Sold 225k in the US according to HDD, the biggest debut of the year.

This spends a second week at #1 in the U.K! :cheer: Ari’s second multi-week #1 album here after thank u, next

 

‘bye’ achieves a second week top 20 this week at #20

Spends a second week at #1 in the U.S. too *.*

After a fair few listens this could be my favourite album of hers yet, gorgeous!

The album falls to #4 in the U.K. this week (behind Elbow, Metro Boomin and Olivia Rodrigo) and has now been certified silver ^_^

 

'bye' remains in the top 40, doing rather well for an album track

This album is a non-mover in the U.K. at #4 on its fourth week! Really happy with the stability so far.

 

Ari still has both singles and 'bye' in the top 40, the latter is down to #36.

I'm still rinsing 'we can't be friends (wait for your love)' but of course am curious to see what's next for this era!

Down to #9 in the U.K. albums chart this week, although a busy one for new releases with five new entries ahead of her! 5 weeks top 10 (so far) in this climate is fab :clap:

An icon, a legend, the moment

Video for single 3 has been shot, honestly not fussed which song it is, love them all. Hoping deep down it's for 'the boy is mine' or 'supernatural'.
