Jesy Nelson - Boyz (feat. Nicki Minaj) • 8th October 2021
I remember recently watching one of those videos where they were talking about their first impressions of each other and how they were put in the band. In a clip, Jesy said when she heard Perrie sing, she thought it was a black woman/Perrie sounded like a black woman. Reading these comments just reminded me of how that made me cringe. Slayer hun, I don't think these comments are hateful. They are opinions surrounding the music/music video. Even if they don't make sense to you, they are valid. A lot of us are actually learning from these.

Maybe they will give us two videos on the 12th, like they did with Strip and More Than Words. Not sure that will be a good idea though re charts for the individual songs; although I must confess, I'd be low-key served!

Official Chart Rules FAQs
Not sure if this has been covered already: What are the rules regarding Greatest Hits albums? For example, Little Mix are releasing a Greatest Hits album in 2 weeks. It will contain 4 brand new tracks. Three songs from the album (different from the four brand new ones of course) are currently on the charts and are expected to still be on the charts by release week. All three are likely to be on ACR then (one already is), and two out of the three are features. One out of the three is already in Ann-Marie's Therapy album. When this Greatest Hits album gets released, I expect the brand new songs will be streamed the most. But I understand the rule to be that only 3 songs from an album are allowed to chart. Would that mean that if the new songs are streamed the most, the ones already on the charts will disappear? What about the song with Ann-Marie which already belongs in another album? Or am I making a simple rule unnecessarily complex, and it's simply a case of the top three most-streamed charting, thus pushing away other songs in the album already on the charts irrespective of their history/being part of another album? Please let me know, anyone who has answers. TIA.

Absolutely! And lots of people have outrightly and repeatedly called it a flop on Little Mix forums, and I didn't see people running around getting offended and accusing others of hating on Little Mix or not wishing them success.

One person alone in anger/frustration can't be compared to messaging people. It's interesting that a mere insinuation by that dude has been the premise of a lot of your posts. Really interesting. You have pointed out a few times that you're a person of colour, and of course nobody should tell you how to feel. All people of colour do not have the same experiences though, so it'sunderstandable that different things will offend different people. Blackfishing generally offends/affects black women more, for obvious reasons. Another person of colour who is not black, or even a black person who is not female, might understandably not feel as offended.

They're serving us Between Us lyrics instead of announcing No!

We need to borrow some of that ice Nicki Minaj eats and thow in here to bring down the temperature! But Slayer, why do you keep saying Leigh was messaging people though? Thought it was just one person? Because saying she "keeps messaging people" is significantly different from messaging someone. Maybe I'm biased, but I never actually read that message as Leigh seriously wanting him to make a video. Her last text was in the lines of "maybe I'm just fuming".

I've been refreshing my Instagram waiting for this announcement, and all I see is Perrie and Disora!

Where will Between US debut?
Coldplay with the biggest opening week sales this year of over 100,000 has been pushed down to #5 in the midweek update. They might rise before the week ends, but definitely not going top 3 in week 2. As much as we all feel threatened by ABBA, I still think their first week will be massive, but that will be it, relatively. Most of the preorders that crashed their site would have been moved/shipped by end of week 1. Week 2 is mainly for artists with streaming power, and I'm not sure they're quite there. I'm not sure how well Disco will do either. I'm more bothered about Rod Stewart and Taylor Swift, and maybe Ed Sheeran cos his streaming pull would sustain him for many weeks after week 1. I think these 3 and little mix will be top 4. Who will be where in that top 4 is what I can't really tell yet. I suppose later details will shed more light.

Yes it's a decent song and their performances of it always make it even better. Maybe the girls themselves don't like it? I mean, it wasn't even performed in the Glory Days tour, which was just the next tour after Get Weird. I'd think Greatest Hits would be a balance between the best-selling singles, fan faves and their own faves. I'm personally not a massive fan of it, but I definitely would have preferred it made it instead of Bounce Back. Doesn't matter that much to me either way.

I wonder whether the announcement will be tonight or tomorrow

Cut You Off chorus is actually sugary.

Brit Awards 2022 Predictions
I think international female will be Olivia Rodrigo. International Male - Lil Nas X Best Group - Cold Play (yes they've won so many times but their album sales put them way ahead of the rest), ?Little Mix again. Maneskin will be likely nominated for international group. Could they win? Album of the year - I can't call for that one. Also British single - I think Body, or Wellerman, or Ed/Adele. Tough one too!

Sweet Melody • 3rd Single
Happy one year anniversary to the sweetest melody LM has ever released, and one of my absolute best songs of all time! This song hit somewhere in my brain I can't describe!

Seems like 2021 has seen massive releases by a number of artists. What are your thoughts regarding potential nominations and winners?

Anyone knows how this is doing on iTunes, especially when compared to Taylor Swift's Red and Rod Stewart? Just curious.

No • 12th November 2021
All this Holiday slander lol. In the end it didn't really do much worse than Break Up Song, especially when you consider BUS was a lead single. Both are also gold certified, and they also have similar worldwide reach in terms of countries they charted in. Unpopular opinion: I prefer Holiday to Break Up Song. Jade's parts are my bests.

No • 12th November 2021
Gosh not Ed Sheeran's week! He will probably release a single/video along with the album, and Bad Habits will return to SCR. I wonder if he will beat Adele!
-
No • 12th November 2021
I'd have thought they'd do something especially as the songs have leaked, and I'm sure they're aware! Or maybe they're releasing on ABBA week.

No • 12th November 2021
Everyone on his twitter thread is screaming "'No' lyrics" lol. Very soon it will start trending on twitter, literally

Little Mix to announce split next month rumour daily mail
I don't think she'd have stayed. Her departure in retrospect was actually abrupt. She left week of album release and week of The Search's final. She "blocked" them and cut them off...

Little Mix to announce split next month rumour daily mail
A bit inconsistent with what's flying around. Thought it's now believed Jesy left abruptly and blocked them? What's with the roundtable talks and Jesy calling a meeting with the girls? Also, in one of the live lockdown interviews, they consistently denied none of them had tried to/wanted to/been offered to go solo. So someone somewhere is either economical with the truth or making up stories.

Well they still haven't announced it and it's Monday already!
