UK midweek #5 (from #6 on Mondays update)!

The potential on this is genuinely so promising! I don’t know quite what’s still to come in terms of singles but at least she’s going to be active in MAYHEM promo until at least November. I think we’ll probably get another single though. I wonder if other videos were pre filmed before album release week wasn’t her team And her dancers on a set for something that hasn’t yet dropped? Also the chart performance and hold up is super strong! For comparison this is her previous solo eras first three weeks on UK albums chart. The Fame - #3 - #4 #4 (later climbed to #1) The Fame Monster (charted as The Fame but re-release went climb to #7 from #55 and then #12-#2) (also climbed back to #1) Born This Way - #1 - #1 - #3 ARTPOP #1 - #9 - #24 Joanne #3 - #14 - #22 Chromatica #1 - #1 - #2 So from this it’s looking quite promising! I don’t wanna speak too soon either but I can see this lasting longer than Chromatica overall too. The tour coming this year is a good sign!

Pre booked a Manchester hotel already before prices go crazy! Would love to go abroad to see her but trying for Manchester first! The presale situation I wish was given to MAYHEM buyers as a priority. Now it’s all confirmed though I can plan my summer out and hopefully attend at least one show. Paris would be a dream for me! But I am happy it’s not just London for the UK and Manchester is closer for me so it’ll make a nice trip should I be successful. Definitely expecting possibly one more Manchester date too!

For Manchester if you become a Coop member you can get access to a presale on Monday (essentials just download app and pay £1). However the Coop had a presale for JLS this morning and it didn’t go down very well 😅 Gahhhh there should’ve been access to an artist presale for the Mayhem variants we bought!

For acts like Gaga too where staging is a big part of the show it’s more aesthetically pleasing in an arena venue compared to a stadium where it’s sometimes still light when the show begins!

I also prefer arena based shows! But the ticket saga is also a bit more heightened based on availability. I might try for Manchester here though!

Mileys always been super consistent with me so I’m definitely here for this. I’ve always thought she’s been a lot more versatile than she gets credit for so I’m intrigued at the direction of this in terms of sound as the cover doesn’t give too much away! Both Plastic Hearts and Endless Summer Vacation were very strong for me so high hopes here. I’ll be hoping to get a signed copy from her store I was too slow for the first batch but hoping between now and release date there’ll be a re- stock. I do think we’ll likely get at least one single before the album drops too!

Autumn would be great for Europe / UK as far as I’m concerned (and it would mean arenas too righ?!) Part of me did wonder however if the active tour is next year and this year / shows announced so far were for fans in territories where she’s not been for a significant time period. There’s rumours the next shows she’s announcing are for Australia but this is definitely by no means official!

Excited for the deluxe and have now ordered a physical CD! Wonder what kind of chart impact this will have upon the chart when the deluxe drops. I think she’ll likely return to the top 5 possibly with the physicals too but it should boost its chart life. Even without the deluxe its actually managed more weeks top 100 than what Positions did here in the UK!

Smash hit!! Deserved a better UK peak but definitely amongst her signature ballads. Roughly wonder how long before it joins her billionaires!

Hopefully she holds up to stay at #4 to bag a second week in the top 5!

The Beast is really getting stronger and stronger now on each listen for me! The vocals in that middle 8 and last chorus! Because it’s part of such a strong album I think it could be a real underrated anthem but i genuinely think it’s some of her best studio vocals perhaps ever?! Also so happy to see the US #1 achieved! 7 #1 albums now in the US (Born This Way, ARTPOP, Cheek to Cheek, Joanne, A Star Is Born, Chromatica and now MAYHEM) ♥️. I believe she’s achieved 200k+ as well with all her solo studio albums from Born This Way onwards too!

As per sales thread we had a total of 93,510 sales for this in the UK! Presumption this is on imports as the UK never had this chart separately at any point? Although there are streaming versions of the album of just The Fame Monster.

I kinda love this but I’ve always been partial to country. She does sound really great on it though and like others have said this is very Woman in Me / Come on over esque Shania and quite fun too! I quite like how versatile Chappell already is proving to be. Definitely someone exciting and one who I think will switch many times throughout their career!

Playbois never been much of a UK album shifter but this era may be different! His albums so far have entered at #27 and #17. Sabrina is having a tour impact in the UK mixed with BRITs and deluxe impact still fairly fresh so she’s likely returning to #1! I hope the chart run for MAYHEM is a good one for her though! Get those streams Godga. The way it’s held up is kind of giving me hope. Here’s hoping we get a single confirmation soon for what’s next to be pushed and we can get some viral moments.
