January 3Jan 3 Nice! Hope it can somehow rise into the top 40 eventually, should have made it ages ago !
January 3Jan 3 Re Enters the Irish Top 100 aswell this week at number 78, it current peak is number 69..
January 4Jan 4 FINALLY REACHES SPOTIFY UK TODAY CHARTING AT #159!All the hysteria aside, I can't remember ever really being this invested in a songs success. I'm quite a commercial taste kinda person so usually the songs I adore are hits anyway, so watching my favourite song of the year (and probably the decade to be honest, but it feels potentially too early to say something like that) continually rise in notoriety for nearly SEVEN months, feeling like its opportunity had passed, watching a 10 year old song get hype in its place, only for Midnight Sun to then get another boost has been insane and so rewarding.Wherever it peaks now, I'm just glad she's managed to get a charting song from this era. It being her lowest charting album with 0 no top 100's from it, despite it being far and away her best album, has felt so unjust this entire time and the hype and love around this song has always felt like so much more than its chart success would've told you. Now the story will be painted slightly differently and it's SO SO SO deserved. 😭😭😭
January 6Jan 6 I'm torn between feeling a bit bummed that the deluxe is only JUST getting started as they could really do with capitalising on this rising success with something pretty soon, but also happy that it means they're not likely to just be throwing rejects on and there'll probably be some really good songs coming.Her next moves are really important as to whether she can ride this current wave of hype and I've seen her team f*** it up too many times now, they neeeeed to get this right.
January 6Jan 6 If they get the deluxe our just before Summer am I delulu in thinking this could be her summer in the same way Brat was for Charli .... Even on a much lesser scale
January 6Jan 6 She definitely has enough single material on the album to feed the public until the deluxe. Would adore a Hot and Sexy release with an insane video with Tiffany in it
January 7Jan 7 Not sure what this means but I read online that it had almost 900K streams yesterday for Midnight Sun, which is one of it's biggest streaming days.
January 8Jan 8 Author 1 hour ago, DanielCarey said:"Midnight Sun" has finally been sent to US radio!There's not any proof of the aforementioned besides that tweet, which I personally find very misleading to create hype. It's true that "Midnight Sun" received four early US Pop adds yesterday, but this doesn't mean that the track has been sent to US radio. I mean, there's clearly an intent of Pop radio programmers to know which track of hers to play (after "Crush"), so opting to "Midnight Sun" seems the reasonable choice. However, there's also the resurgement of "Lush Life", which basically is the only song of hers doing well in other metrics aside radio, being streaming.To complement the above, it's too early to know what Epic will do (well, I hope they do something) because they could capitalize that resurgement to send "Lush Life" to US radio again and wait for "Midnight Sun" after that or the best scenario might be to work with both tracks simultaneously to see which does better, so they can ditch the other the moment it drops. However, the latter will be a miracle knowing how Epic radio team tends to work, lol!Anyway, the best is to wait until there's more information because, as I mentioned before, that tweet is very misleading.
