Also they have to balance between begging for purchases while maintaining Kylie as an artist - she’s not a newer artist like Sam Ryder etc., that can get away with doing insta lives begging people to download a 59p single 🤣

They know she has an active fanbase and her team are in touch with SH so they know the news will get out there.

I think they need to do a few posts though advertised the extended for download. I get they want to maintain Kylie's status but this is literally her only ever chance and do the general public even notice? Most won't even know she's number 1 because they'll be thinking The Big Top 40 is the main chart 🤣

Amazon CD/Vinyl chart has updated:

CD - 16

7" Gold Vinyl - 28

12" Zoetrope - 34

The wait to find out where she is today is agonising. Have the Kylie stans at the OCC all been sacked? We were spoiled with Padam updates

Probably 1k ahead and tomorrow it'll be game over but it was fun while it lasted 😅

Great boost!

They’ve just updated Kylie’s cover photo on Facebook, with a link to the XMAS links… promo machine seems to be whirring again!

Today is the main midweek chart so the update and media hype will start this evening.

I guess there is a balance between going to much and also sneakily adding sales by suprise and quietly knowing what they have to keep throwing out at us and not causing too much of a campaign from other artists etc too.

Wednesday and Thursday could be fun.

Youtube Music Trending Video Chart

14 (+1) Xmas, Kylie. 237k views worldwide this week

Edited December 15Dec 15 by SmileyKylie

Kylie.com has been updated! Looks great with all the XMAS banner!

Right so if Kylie is on 18k and Wham was on 11k yesterday, it means Wham should end the week on around 44k (last week they did 42k).

Last week I mentioned Kylie would need to do 45k this week to be Number 1 and I am sticking to this number for now. I will
do more analysis once we have the full updated midweeks in a few hours.

I think Kylie will be on 24k later with Wham on 16k. Let’s see

Amazon Music

9 (+1) XMAS, Kylie

She’s still 6 on the Amazon Music app chart but good to see her climb!

you cannot predict what WHAM will do. There fans can equally download and stream more etc

Downloaded off the kylie store which was easy and the original & extended off Amazon which wasn’t ruddy easy!!! Got an error message and had to wait to download it after trying to find it again.

All that while being bumbarded with messages to sign up to Amazon music.

The extended mix is great, love the synthy tease intro.

Alexa won’t play me the extended mix, is there a trick in phrasing the voice command?

I said ‘Alexa play kylie Minogue Xmas extended mix’

Her team have woke up in USA and now add the download links to both her store and Amazon and also the YouTube video link etc

I did wonder why anybody would really be bothered about a campaign for Wham!, a quick look at the main Facebook campaign group and it seems the goal is for them to score a consecutive hat-trick of Chrisrmas #1s. Whoop-de-doo.

I can only see like a handful of people in there making posts encouraging people to stream it, and each post getting like 2 or 3 comments so it doesn't seem that big if there is a campaign (although I still think they'll get it regardless)

Spotify's not working at the moment. Wham! etc losing out on streams from there currently *.*

Agree. I’m in one of the campaign groups for one of the previous years and it’s basically just “it would be nice to be number one again”, but no real campaign or push for sales!

WAIT I SPOKE THAT INTO EXISTENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You honestly couldn't write that lol

I'm both excited and dreading to see today's midweeks as I think today will be where we know for sure if she has a chance or not of number 1.
