Set to reach a new peak of #3 on the Billboard 200 next week.

"The Art Of Loving" is now certified Platinum in the UK!

Four brand new certifications from the album this week:

Man I Need - 2x Platinum

A Couple Minutes - Silver

Baby Steps - Silver

Let Alone The One You Love - Silver

She’s now got a US top 3 album!

Remember when first hearing Nice to Each Other last summer I didn’t think it was anything special but now over Xmas hearing it on Jools it’s just so classy and sounds timeless - def a grower!

"The Art of Loving" is now the 2nd biggest album released in 2025 in the UK, surpassing "Man's Best Friend".

Olivia has been a really slow burner with me. I guess I just didn't really get they hype until very recently. Checking the album out for the first time this afternoon and it really is a lovely listen. Perfect for a Sunday.

For me she's just extremely hit or miss. Nice To Each Other & A Couple Minutes are both utterly dreadful, Man I Need is extremely mid but then So Easy (and Rein Me In) are both A-tier pop songs.

I don't mind Olivia but she isnt an artist i would buy an album from, i find some of her songs ok but while im not a huge fan i am happy to see her do well.

Its likely she will do well at the Brits so i have been half expecting a deluxe version of the album to drop around the time of the Brits but nothing indicates there is one coming.

What I really love about her is that her music gives me hopeless romantic in a romcom vibes. It's like a nice warm hug.

"The Art of Loving" is now certified 2x Platinum for 600k units!

The slayage

Expected but that’s pretty fast to get to 2X in today’s climate! I can easily see it getting to 3X as well massive sucess!

I also wonder if she’ll at some point do a deluxe of the album perhaps in Q4 not that it needs it to maintain success! It’s gonna take something pretty big for this to not be the biggest album of the year now though.

Be interesting which way she goes as the current trend seems to be more Yearly albums, I do think singles wise she has almost exhausted possibilities than can dethrone the big players she has already released, and the best route would be a new album or even singles chappel roan style

Returns to #1 on UK iTunes following her Big Weekend set!

i can really only see Taylor Swift beating Olivia, if she releases one this year.
