Joel said:The bottom of the email said BMGYes, it’s a Parlophone release (the single is charting under the Parlophone label and the cat numbers for the album are Parlophone).The email database is held by BMG so guessing that’s why they are listed on the email mailout.
December 2, 2025Dec 2 It's being handled so well so far - I'm assuming it's probably her management more than the label but they seem to be trying to build on pre-orders and streams before Christmas week.Hopefully they tease the Xmas music video in her promo next week (One show etc...)
December 2, 2025Dec 2 I have such a good feeling about this being either #1 or #2 but every single download really is going to matter

December 3, 2025Dec 3 Great update for the physicals on Amazon CD/Vinyl bestsellers today!Xmas CD - 197 Xmas 7" Gold - 490Xmas 12" Zoetrope - 600Obviously these all charted inside the top 10 on release of the pre-order but had fallen to as low as 1,800 (Zoetrope) Hopefully with more album promo next week she'll get some solid pre-orders.
December 3, 2025Dec 3 Author I own a couple of them:I don't like them very much... they require an app on your phone to be able to view the effect anyway. Looking at them spinning around with the naked eyed is just a blur. But labels seem to love creating them. In regards to Christmas, Wham! - Last Christmas had a zoetrope last year, as did Mariah Carey - Merry Christmas album.

December 3, 2025Dec 3 14 is very good considering the 1/12 bump seemed like it was missing its impact (looking at Spotify numbers as a guide, Monday’s streams for SB were 100k less than Sunday) though that could be a Spotify issue. Be great if it could hold onto top 20, would need to climb closer to the Amazon top ten I guess but it’s hovering around 20 or just inside.
