Hopefully Illusion gets a mega boost

I know it's because it's track 1 but super happy to see End of an Era as the highest album track. Should have been the focus track instead of These Walls

Come through RO!

 

I want Maria, French Exit and Falling Forever to appear soon!!!

My… French Exit??

Apple Music:

 

Dua Lipa - Radical Optimism

 

19. Illusion (+4)

23. Training Season (+3)

44. Houdini (+10)

73. End Of An Era (+36)

78. These Walls (+45)

She’s got a few more showing up between #100 and #200 now too as well as new Becky Hill appearing.

 

I know expectations weren’t necessarily high for Dua but not even having the whole album top 200 on Apple at this point has to be disappointing right?

 

Not trying to hate, just wondering what the general opinion is.

My… French Exit??

It's entered now :cheer:

 

112. Whatcha Doing

139. French Exit

148. Falling Forever

Having done a listenthrough, These Walls is a really bizarre choice for focus track lol

Tbh I don’t know what would’ve been better - maybe EOAE.

French Exit and Falling Forever :wub:

 

We need Maria now!!!

I think "Falling Forever" would've been a great focus track (hoping it may get the single treatment at some point)!

 

Fingers crossed "Illusion" can get a big enough boost for a new peak. Although with the #8 doing 40k this week, that might be quite a big ask (likely will fall some next week but it's crazy high sales in the top 10 in general currently!).

Very muted opening for Dua on AM. Hope Spotify will look better for her.

The whole album is charting on Apple Music now

 

16. Illusion (+3)

19. Training Season (+4)

39. Houdini (+5)

64. These Walls (+14)

65. End Of An Era (+8)

90. Whatcha Doing (+22)

110. Falling Forever (+38)

112. French Exit (+27)

155. Maria (NEW)

167. Anything For Love (NEW)

176. Happy For You (NEW)

oh that's very good the whole album top 200 on Apple

Is it really tho? Seems like the bare minimum to me

for Du Lipa? She's no Taylor, if you were expecting all her songs to do over 1 million... that's not gonna happen

I believe Dua is on SNL tonight, should be good promo. Taylor did 445k second week US so prob 190k third week can't see Dua beating that

She’s probably only going to open with 60-70k, no chance she’ll be anywhere near #1.

I'm more interested in what happens to Dua's album in the UK, that's what matters this week, couldn't care less about her US performance

Well I'm sure they expected at least one album track to go top 40 on AM.
