November 16, 2025Nov 16 XMAS is included high up on loads of Amazon playlists already but it’ll need the Alexa spam to kick in to start joining the perennials. One thing to remember is it’s on SCR which should help it chart once the numbers significantly ramp up. Where’s Gwen and the other Amazon exclusives past and present on the Amazon chart? I can’t seem to see it on my app but I’m using prime access not unlimited.
November 16, 2025Nov 16 From SH -Kylie will perform XMAS on the Strictly Semi-Final Results Show (14th December)!
November 16, 2025Nov 16 Yep but also Kylie is solely on Amazon so really needs to it to take off. I just like seeing Kylie in the charts anywhere and releasing new music and still competing with the youngsters. It all just adds to her stardom, her longevity and legendry status when many back in the 80s doubted her. Remarkable

November 16, 2025Nov 16 Amazon accounts for about 25% of the UK music streaming market, second to Spotify that has just under 50%. Didn’t realise Amazon was so strong.

November 16, 2025Nov 16 I meant will it be an exclusive for a while then be available on Spotify Apple etcOtherwise how will she chart so highWill we be able to download it?

The download they seem to be holding back until release week but yes there's always a download available via Amazon.Amazon Christmas originals always chart so well because Amazon's streaming market jumps over Christmas, everyone does the whole 'Alexa play Christmas music' then Alexa spams whichever Christmas Original they are pushing (Kylie will also be on standard ratio meaning her streams will count 100% towards the chart whereas all the Christmas classics are on ACR (50% count towards the chart)It's basically chart manipulation by Amazon to an extent because it plays all the time.

November 16, 2025Nov 16 Tom Grennan climbed to top 40 on w/e 12 Dec last year so probably around then.
November 16, 2025Nov 16 Amazon Music166 (+7) XMAS, Kylie XMAS is surely going to get BBC Radio 2 and Capital FM playlistings very soon Kylie has the benefit from not just a single but a new repackaged album too which will in turn help the single too Conservatively i am going for 5k physicals and 1k of downloads to start the chart week 12th December. She also has TV promo - Strictly, Capital FM Jinglebell Ball + probably some more interviews on radio, bbc, itv etc Any publicity for Kylie = extra sales
November 16, 2025Nov 16 The problem is when the general public hear the sing they won’t find it on Spotify, Apple. i tunes etc. So isn't the promo really only going to help the album?

November 16, 2025Nov 16 The whole point Amazon give a 3 month free trial to people and they can play Kylie Kylie fans will download from Amazon no problem. its very easy and do so every time she releases Plus more poeple will ask Alexa to play. They may watch a Youtube video too etc
