Envoirment

So excited! The visuals look great. I hope we get all 13 music videos uploaded properly and the long-form/full thing at the same time.

I only heard "Ordinary" the other day and quite like it, can see why it's doing well!

Miley had said previously the album is inspired by Pink Floyd's "The Wall". So expecting it to be Pop/Rock infused.

#6. I expected she'll rise back into the top 5 come end of the week as 2 new entries ahead will likely fall somewhat.

Just got emailed by spotify about the limited edition smoke red Vinyl. Can't believe it's coming so soon. I wonder when we'll get the lead single? Or if the album will just drop all at once?

Adele - "Hometown Glory" Amazon - #49 (+171) Apple Music - #53 Spotify - #82 I think that's the highest it's been on Amazon (combined) and Apple Music so far. Might climb into the top 30 in the official chart this week?

Week 12 1. Lexi Love (1-x-10-9-4-5-8-5-3-7-4-1) 2. Onya Nurve (3-x-3-2-1-6-1-2-8-4-1-2) 3. Jewels Sparkles (2-x-9-8-8-3-2-1-1-6-7-3) 4. Lana Ja'Rae (6-x-11-6-3-12-10-7-5-3-5-4) 5. Suzie Toot (1-x-7-3-6-8-7-4-6-5-3-5) 6. Sam Star (5-x-1-7-9-4-3-3-4-1-2-6) Out: Lydia B Kollins (5-x-6-5-12-11-6-8-7-2-6) Arrietty (7-x-2-11-10-1-9-6-2-8) Kori King (4-x-12-12-11-7-4-10-9) Acacia Forgot (4-x-8-10-2-10-5-9) Crystal Envy (2-x-5-1-7-2-11) Hormona Lisa (7-x-4-4-5-9) Lucky Starzzz (3-x-14) Joella (6-x-13-13)

This episode was OK. I wished they were able to have more stage props etc to enhance the performances. Onya & Lexi rightly winning. Honestly I woud've had Suzie vs Sam for the bottom 2 as Lana's dancing was quite good and I didn't think her story that bad. Sam's dancing just wasn't great. Likewise Suzie's dancing was a bit meh. And the lip sync was good! And lowkey Lana won that. You could tell by the edit of the lip sync they were setting it up for Sam to win as Lana did a number of great things that the camera didn't focus on or were cut out of frame. Lana sending home Sam would've been such a gag.

Shame about Peppa & A'Whora! They would've been great to have on.

I thought songs older than 3 years don't get an automatic reset and it has to be requested by the label? Or does that not matter and any song that gets a +25% increase in streams (relative to the market) reset automatically regardless of age?

"Hometown Glory" Amazon: #59 (+245) Apple Music: #55 Spotify: #86 Looks like it will stick around for a bit which is great to see. As well as being reset in the charts! It might even be able to double its weeks in the top 40. Prior to its re-entry last week, it had 7 weeks top 40. Another 6 weeks doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility with its current performance on streaming services taking into account ACR. Although it also comes down to how long it continues trending on Tiktok. Perhaps it might get a little bit more playlist support on streaming services due to its resurgence which might help.

Just noticed "Hometown Glory" got the reset! Label must've requested it. Hope it can rack up a number of more weeks in the top 40

Only just listened to "Ordinary" and have to say - it's quite good! Glad to see the first song released in 2025 going to #1.

Some of those achievements are a damned nightmare! I have been playing overwatch since original release in 2016, particularly support characters. I finally got Zenyatta's Rapid Discord achievement last year and I nearly cried 😂 Although I do know that there are groups that "cheese" the achievements as I believe there are usually forums on the achievement sites for people to group up to try and get certain achievements. In terms of acheivements I think one of my most memorable would be getting the platinum in Bloodborne. I had literally tried playing and dropped bloodborne many times over the years as I could never quite get into or get the knack of it. But then something clicked with me and I spent a full week playing non-stop and managed to beat all the bosses. I'm hoping to do the same for Elden Ring eventually but I need to be in the right mindset to play souls-like games.

Of games released in 2024 it has to be Helldivers 2. That was such a fun couple months playing with friends.
