Monday at 19:562 days I really don't see what's so special about that Haven song to be blowing up out of nowhere! Just sounds like generic dance fodder to me.

Just sounds like generic dance fodder to me.Like many others of its ilk that ended up doing well - Kisses, The Days, Can't Decide and Make Me Feel Good. All so nothing-y.

They actually did the same with The Fame a few weeks ago..."Gaga fever is well and truly alive following the release of The Dead Dance and her sold-out UK Tour, The Mayhem Ball, commencing next week. As a result, her debut album The Fame, could shoot an astounding 31 places up the rankings this week (19). Upon its original release in 2008, the record was an instant hit peaking at Number 1, staying there for seven weeks non-consecutively."... which was also primarily because of a new vinyl variant for The Fame/The Fame Monster, lol.

Yesterday at 06:081 day ^^ The OCC seem to hate variants/physicals and would much rather present a picture of a healthy market.The only time I’ve ever really known them to highlight it is when The Lottery Winners went to #1 and they called out the variants.
Yesterday at 06:151 day As if a Grammy nom would result in anything in the UK charts... I don't thin even BRITS nominations cause significant boost, wins perhaps.
Yesterday at 12:551 day I imagine they thought a mention of the Grammys would work better in terms of Google hits, more so than a new vinyl would?
Yesterday at 18:351 day Er please album if the year pfft maybe top 10 at a push , Jade is clearly album of the year even HMV says so 1 hour ago, Adelita said:Hoping Mayhem can hold on Top 20. AOTY!
9 hours ago9 hr Taylor released more signed cds earlier again sold in minutes reckon that should keep her safe on albums this week
6 hours ago6 hr I think some of you are over expecting the impact the versions have on Taylor in the UK charts 😭Like digital sales for the album are barely 211 which even removing them she is above Rosalia, and signed cd stock is probably negligible.I think she was safely on course for both #1s without any push
6 hours ago6 hr You do realise taylor is the kind of artist that CAN sell loads of signed variants in literally zero time , but yeah she was probably safe regardless on the album front , singles its could still go either way
