Let’s just say I’m glad she went with AOMD first. The beat sounds identical to ‘Sissy That Walk’

Jade staying stable at 17 again today is brilliant!

It’s doing very well on streaming and downloads alone though. Your argument that saving physicals for the second week is ‘artificial’ surely also applies to an artificially high peak first week too if you’re going by that standard. And having a multiple week top 10 as I said will only help with streaming playlisting placements, so that could realistically offset that 3rd week plummet too much. Think Kylie with ‘Padam’ last year. Even having a few weeks low top 10 gave her a few months of very high playlisting on all of the important Spotify playlists etc as it looked like a genuine hit. She didn’t throw physicals out straight away, but did when she needed it.

I think Jade has watched Leigh and Perrie drop to 30s-50s in the second week and is very clever holding back the physicals. Having longevity is actually much more important. Imagine if she can keep a position between 4-7 this week, release the physicals next week and remain another week in the top 10. Then promo, radio play etc can ramp up, as it really looks like a genuine hit. That could increase the Hot Hits Spotify playlisting etc. to a higher position and guarantee much more stability for the next month or so... We need to get over the peaking very high first week and then plummet idea, just so she can outpeak Jesy.

Wow at her Apple Music performance so far… And looking like she will have second biggest Spotify debut after Jesy (although that obvs had Nicki feature and much much earlier than the other girls) This defo shaping up to be the most promising start for Jade compared to the other girls solo careers.

Starting to lose hope that Tinashe is going to go top 100. How annoyingly close…

Agree with sentiment - it’s nothing special but MUCH better than Forget About Us for me. I do think she should be singing songs that show off her voice much more than this.

Tinashe you're going the wrong way sweetie! I need it to break the top 100 so bad :(

Tinashe rising on a Sunday update is crazy! Coming for top 100 this week for sure.

Do we know if chart rules will allow all these versions to be combined?

Come on Tinashe!! This is the day I’ve been waiting for.

Got disabled for about 8 hours but Tinashe works hard and it’s back up! Phew

Not the 'Nasty' sound getting removed and deleted from Tik Tok on the same day she is put on 'Hot Hits' and potentially looking like Billboard Hot 100 for first time in 8 years. So scared this is going to slow it down... the whiplash of being a Tinashe fan.

I love her and think she is such a talent... but this not doing it for me. She can be a great songwriter when she wants to be but this is appealing all her worst songwriting habits. Everything is way way too 'on the nose' for me? And the shouting out the 'farmers' 'cleaners' 'chefs' etc. is a cute idea but it could have been a politically charged tweet? It just lacks any form of creative subtlety. Still I am routing for her, but this is a skip.

Added to ‘Hot Hits’. The 1.5 million update coming!!!

Streamed over 1.2 million times yesterday… it just keeps on growing. If a remix is coming next week alongside Jimmy Kimmel performance, this is all lining up for actually breaking Hot 100 isn’t it? So proud of my girl.

This is sadly overshadowing everything. I think if he’s not disqualified and performs tomorrow, The Netherlands wins. If he is disqualified I think Israel has this.

An updated list including the semi final 2 bunch, taken at exactly the same time after performances. 1. Croatia (1.8M) 2. Ireland (1.8M) 3. The Netherlands (1.7M) 4. Greece (1.5M) 5. Ukraine (1.5M) 6. Israel (1.1M) 7. Italy (922k) 8. Switzerland (895k) 9. Finland (891k) 10. France (775k) 11. Spain (692k) 12. Serbia (591k) 13. Armenia (574k) 14. Cyprus (486k) 15. Lithuania (422k) 16. United Kingdom (381k) 17. Austria (359k) 18. Slovenia (352k) 19. Estonia (302k) 20. Latvia (289k) 21. Georgia (263k) 22. Portugal (260k) 23. Luxembourg (251k) 24. Sweden (204k) 25. Norway (187k) 26. Germany (163k) Looking like UK will defo be around the 15-18 mark like a lot predict.

Based on the YouTube views of the performances 24 hours of the semi-final, here is where Olly placed: 1. Croatia (1.8M) 2. Ireland (1.8M) 3. Ukraine (1.5M) 4. Finland (891k) 5. Serbia (591k) 6. Cyprus (486k) 7. Lithuania (422k) 8. United Kingdom (381k) 9. Slovenia (352k) 10. Portugal (260k) 11. Luxembourg (251k) 12. Sweden (204k) 13. Germany (163k) I know YouTube views won't neccessarily turn into votes, but could be an indicator where the interest is at this point. I am going to try and do the same with Semi-Final 2, exactly 24 hours after it finishes, to see where they place in this list... But it could suggest that Olly is looking like the top of the second half of the board if this is a good predictor.

Agreed. This is a massively disappointing album. It’s okay, but becoming of one of the biggest popstars in the world? It’s just so bland sadly.

I hope that 'II Most Wanted' becomes the 'Church Girl' and the internet makes them change their mind...

I am not sure.. Kanye only did 20k last time, I reckon this time would be more like 14-15k. I reckon Taylor could still be doing that number from streams alone on third week.

Music video very average I’m afraid. I’m kind of expecting just to squeak the top 10 today at #10. The one more week in the charts next week at around #18-#23 and then out sadly.

“I’m having a baby… no I’m not, but you should see your faces”. If you think that’s great songwriting, or even a mature enough lyric for someone in their mid-30’s then maybe we just have different taste. And for the record I also absolutely hate the “sexy baby” line too. Why if she’s just a great songwriter am I cringing so much?

This is one of the stans then, eh? I’m sorry I feel like this is her worst work yet. I have enjoyed some of her albums previously as well so I’m not a hater but this is just Taylor in autopilot… and where is the great songwriting they speak of? The Charlie Puth line, “tattoo golden retriever”, the whole chorus of But Daddy I Love Him, “I so depressed I act like it’s my birthday everyday”. I’m sorry it’s all so juvenile to me. Hard pass but get your numbers gal x
