Sunday at 23:563 days That's shockingly low.I thought he would do double that, even allowing for chronic low sales of albums nowadays.What a shame of all those excellent songs going to waste. 🤪

Tuesday at 13:392 days Let's hope Robbie & his team wake up & do their analysis on this, the numbers have been heading in the wrong direction for a long time I was listening to the podcast on Rewind Robbie Williams for the Camden gig & heard it being said that when booking tickets people could opt out of buying the album .Another thing is that I ordered the ZINE version of the album, there is no date yet for when it will be shipped, I am not sure they have even finalised the artwork for this . The ZINE version is supposed to Include the album track-by-track interview. Edited Tuesday at 13:452 days by Sydney11
Tuesday at 14:502 days I am not really sure what they can do.Short of collaborating with a really hot young artist who has a large streaming audience he is not going to get the streaming numbers or new music played on commercial radio/radio 1. The would literally have to use underhanded bot tactics to get streaming numbers up - and what is the point of that when fake streaming chart placement does not affect anything in the real world?At this stage of his career he could write an ‘Angels’ and it just wouldn’t break through. His fanbase is predominantly middle aged now, don’t really listen to new music much, and don’t follow the charts. The avenues for impulse purchases of albums have all disappeared - the large casual audience who used to pick up a CD from the supermarket when they did the weekly shop because they liked that song they heard on the radio is long gone. And they don’t stream.The biopic and the Netflix doc both failed to significantly move the needle in terms of record sales, a decent amount of promo for Britpop did very little, and you are no longer allowed to make an album purchase compulsory for tour pre-sale periods. Robbie may just have to be content with making music on an UTR budget for the hard core fans who really want to hear it, and playing the Greatest Hits live to everyone else.
Tuesday at 17:192 days It is a difficult situation for most established artists. I am not following the charts actively, but I see that national music is taking quite some momentum in countries like Germany. I also read that very few of the artists who have been huge in the nineties and noughties see a huge amount of albums or have hit singles, aside they are doing a collab. Well, the collabs of Rob had also not been very successful. The one with Avicii was aside in the UK, but that is the last I remember as success. While people attend his concerts for the show this never lead to higher sales in the countries he visited in the last 15 years. For Take That it is worse as they do not sell even tickets in Europe despite they had been huge. I think Coldplay might be the only ones who maintained sales figures despite being around long. Don't know when I heard the last U2 hit single. Then you check out the hyped new artists like Youngblud (Hope I spelt it right) and you see that his sales are also limited. Simply strange times or times where variety counts. I think Robbie is the first who knows.
Tuesday at 17:312 days Still think Rob needs 'do Elton thing' with collab.Well, you can remember there was a rumor that Olivia Dean will do a live performance of Angels with him in April.If it will be released then, then Number 1 is 100% happen.
Tuesday at 18:422 days Don't worry :)Olivia is the most popular female singer in UK now. What's more important for me she is really talented lady and has a charm of singers from the past. She likes me.Check it:

It wouldn’t get radio play - it is too old-fashioned a song. Olivia Dean’s fans want to hear her music, not Robbie’s.A collab would need to be a new song to actually work, and it would need to sound like Olivia’s song with a Robbie feature.
Yesterday at 00:401 day I get that his fans don't stream, but that wouldn't matter if middle aged fans bought a physical copy which obviously they're not doing. It's great that he got brilliant reviews for his new music - but has that encouraged anyone to actually go out and buy the album who wasn't going to anyway? He's done what people wanted - he's produced new music and he's (again what people wanted) played different tracks live, not just the Greatest Hits, but it still hasn't made a difference to the actual sales of Britpop.
