Posted September 27, 2024Sep 27 Gaga has released a companion album to Todd Phillips’ new Joker movie, Joker: Folie à Deux, inspired by her character Harley Quinn. The album features covers of classic songs like “Smile” “World on a String,” and “That’s Life", but also two new original songs, "Folie à Deux" and "Happy Mistake". Where will it chart in the UK?
September 27, 2024Sep 27 Honestly I don't think it's going to bother the top 10. There are no physicals for a few weeks and it doesn't sound like the sort of album that will ignite streaming. Maybe low teens? A boost on physicals week will definitely happen so maybe it'll peak then?

September 27, 2024Sep 27 Top 10 peak potentially but possibly in week 3 (or the week the physical sales ship). I think it could do better than expected potentially and the film could help it as well I think it might fare similarly to how Cheek to Cheek did possibly? Streaming wise I don’t know what to expect but it is Gaga so people may well listen out of curiosity (also number 1 on UK iTunes but no idea of what sales are needed for that).
September 27, 2024Sep 27 Author It's very tricky to predict without physical release.. But I am thinking top 10 peak achieved twice (this week thanks to digital sales and streams and later with physicals).
