Monday at 13:432 days I think its downloads and physicals + moderate streaming on Amazon should be good enough to get a top 10/20 Like you say Amazon will get good free publicity if it does well.

Amazon heavily auto play the Amazon Christmas Exclusive (For instance when someone says Alexa play Christmas songs - It will usually Play the Exclusive twice in every 10 christmas songs if not more) Sadly it's just playlists that help the exclusive rather than people seeking it out to play (It's basically artificial streams like most playlists)She'll definitely be top 10 easily without downloads / physicals but to stand at chance at a Christmas number 1 she needs to be pulling in the same streaming numbers as Tom / Sam Ryder / Katy / Jess Glynne etc at the very least.Kylie has a great fanbase as we know so if she's say number 1 /2 in the first midweeks sales flash (Which most of the Exclusives have been) it will assemble the fanbase to download and buy all the physicals they can which will massively help trying to secure her the Christmas number 1.

Monday at 15:072 days Yeah, it's practically impossible for this to miss the top 5, but its best shot at being #1 is most likely the chart published on Boxing Day, because Amazon will report its numbers instead of OCC just guessing them.The best outcome would of course be TWO weeks at #1.
Monday at 15:551 day Yep it’s best chance for number 1 is for the chart covering 19-25th December. Hopefully the Alexa spam will be so high for the 25th so it’ll be more worthwhile than the estimated Spotify streams…which itself is just ridiculous but there’s no way that can be avoided. It has a decent chance of Christmas number 1 the week before but will need the physicals and downloads. Of course if it underperforms or the Alexa effect is less strong then a high peak and sales is the next best. It’s all a big con anyway.

Alexa will make this a hit regardless of if fans rally behind it or not.I’m more looking forward to seeing if we can get the album to the top.
Monday at 17:081 day She is going to be singing it on Strictly and Jinglebell Ball + probably other promo too that week so many people will just think it is selling well rather than Alexa haha

Monday at 18:071 day 35 in midweeks and still going strong on Amazon today, rising rather than falling like last weekCome on Kylie Ann
Monday at 19:041 day If you were to get a free Amazon music trial would the streams we do on there count towards the chart? Seen that there’s a 4 month trial can get, tempted to get it to help stream if it counts 😂

Monday at 19:171 day That’s a good hold so the streams are flowing strongly. Hopefully this week it’ll hold or improve its numbers via Amazon.

Seen that there’s a 4 month trial can get, tempted to get it to help stream if it counts 😂Yes they do (as already mentioned) - have seen links posted in all the Kylie fan groups encouraging people to take out free trials to stream (I’m done the same).
