I think they are daft not to apply price cuts as it would help attract some casual sales especially at this time of year.

For these who are interested, sales of 'Tension II' on week 46 (the week it went from 119 to 188, total sales were 40,894

Just over 19k to reach silver, if she can keep at 1k a week it will get there end of April/beginning of May.

Think that was two weeks ago so it’s on 43-44k after last weeks chart.

A whole 99p off the T2 CD at Amazon - not quite the reduction to get sales flowing :lol:

Hardly worth their while reducing it by a pesky 99p.

A bigger reduction was needed for it to have any impact.

Who's still totally addicted to "Someone for me" and "Good as gone"? I listen to each at least 5x daily.

Taboo is the one I've remained addicted to.

Good as Gone and Kiss Bang Bang are still on repeat for me. But Someone For Me is up there too.

For me that first five track run is one of the strongest of any Kylie album ever released:

 

Lights Camera Action

Taboo

Someone for Me

Good as Gone

Kiss Bang Bang

This tbh - kinda sad it didn’t get the same exposure as a ‘standard’ album by being relegated to a Part 2.

It is a solid and consistent opening to the album but i think for me im not sure in a few years time will i still think they are as strong.

Kylie 20 min interview on bbc news at 9m30am Xmas day

 

Also on Heart Radio 6-10pm with Mark Wright.

 

All pre recorded of course and repeat but still good coverage

Up to 13 on Amazon current best sellers.

 

Every sale counts

All will help in that slow climb to the album going gold.

I wonder will they release another single, she owuld get some radio play which might help the album grab a few extra sales, i dont think it would do any harm in releasing another single as we only have had 1 that isnt a duet/feature.

My daughter not a Kylie fan as such but doesnt mind her but hears her music through me thinks good as gone or diamonds should be a single and while i like both myself, Taboo would be my first choice purely as i love it and want it as a single but looking from a general public point of view im not sure taboo would be the right choice.

9 on Amazon current best selling CDs/vinyls

 

Lets hope it sells a few this week in HMV too

With the various post-Christmas New Year sales, and hopefully either Taboo or Good as Gone sent out to UK radio in January, Tension II should finally hit Gold certification.

I hope we hear news on a song been sent to radio soon.
