Chemical debuting at #9 globally, #7 in the UK and #2 in the US on Spotify is an interesting definition of "deep-diving" lol

Surprised to see Bulbasaur out but can't say I'm complaining lol, I like it but it was one of my least favs of the ones left last round. Gonna have to go for Rowlet (again), Charmander & Squirtle this round.

Rowlet, Bulbasaur and Fennekin for me but we're at the point where I like all of the ones left

Gonna have to vote the 3 gen 7 mons this round, i like litten but its final evolution is tragic and i like rowlet too but all the others left are better imo

Having now listened I can say it's a pretty bad album imo but still my favourite of hers since Reputation lol

Haven't heard any of the songs yet but hopefully it's more like Reputation and not some of the drivel she was putting out with the albums after that.

Chespin, Popplio and Scorbunny for me

I'll be surprised if it even goes Top 10 but I guess we'll see in a couple weeks lol

I hope this isn't another My 24th Birthday situation where it doesn't make Top 40, Mel Made Me Do It isn't quite as good as that but it's still great and it'd be nice to see it Top 40. It's #1 on NMFUK so we can hope at least.

The Post Malone x Pokemon song peaked at #76 so I wouldn't even be considering #1 lol. If it goes Top 40 it'll be doing pretty well.

A collab between Dave & Bebe Rexha sounds so cursed lmao

Personally I think the #1s this year have been dreadful lol, Starlight was/is amazing but the other 7 have all been tragic imo, so another tragic #1 this year wouldn't change much for me. That goes for BOTA as well as I Ain't Worried.

Tbf the track is currently at #39 on Apple so it is theoretically possible, but I agree it's more likely a curated playlist.

I find it pretty odd how Are You Entertained got off to a surprisingly great start on Spotify yet it's nowhere to be seen in the Apple Top 100. Even globally it's #19 on Spotify but nowhere in the Apple Top 200.

Fantastic to see that Peru is likely to avoid again, hoping it can get to 26 consecutive weeks in the Top 10!

I have confidence that one day people on here will realise that sometimes artists release music just because they want to release music and not because they want it to do well on the charts, but it seems today is not that day lol

Joker & Queen is probably flopping just because it's a bad song (imo) regardless of if it's the Taylor remix or not lol, meanwhile Peru is a much better song (again imo) and that's been successful. I also wouldn't use Afterglow as an example of him underperforming, a random single with no promo dropped randomly in the middle of the week in the busiest time of the year still reaching #2 is more an example of his power on the charts I'd say.

Thanks lol but my name isn't actually a reference to the artist it's just a reference to the animal

Aitch already #2 on Apple, should easily be a Top 10 debut next Friday and could potentially even outdo the terminally 2nd place Peru.

I'd agree, that seems like the race to watch as thank u, next did around 44k streaming in its first week iirc, which seems like a more achievable target than 79k given these first day streams. Although, them both being 12 track albums doesn't matter at all in the UK, since only the streams of the 12 most streamed tracks on the album actually count to the albums chart (then the top 2 are weighted down to the average of the other 10), so those extra 4 tracks on ÷ didn't actually count towards its streaming total.

The all-time record streaming sales for an album for an entire week is 79k for ÷. Just looking at Spotify figures, 30 averaged 596,936 streams between tracks #3 - #12, while ÷ averaged 760,950 between tracks #3 - #12. From what I can find, ÷ did roughly 26k streaming sales in its first 2 days (432k sales in the Monday update, of which 6% were from streams), and there's absolutely 0 chance that 30 has done more in 1 day than ÷ did in 2 given its lower streaming figures. 14k seems like a fairly reasonable estimate for 30's first day streaming sales imo.

Wow 92 is an amazing score, even beating out the 90 of Psychodrama which I certainly did not expect! Definitely surprised to see Ghetts so high as well lol but I'm happy to see him at #1. Personally I found the album to be pretty good but nothing really incredible.
