Hallucinate

A post-album hit? The album has been out a week.

Also Amazon Music Levitating is #95 (solo) & #68 (DaBaby) Holy #12 Diamonds #24 34+35 n/a It’s going to be very close this week. Everyone download and stream!

Levitating is way above Sigala and Clean Bandit on Spotify, so hoping it can sneak a #10 peak this week

Nothing But My Feelings is there worst song, Gloves Up is a 2013/14 mess. Sweet Melody and Happiness are career highlights though, so I can forgive the crashing low’s.

To think some thought Ariana might stop Kylie and Little Mix in her second week! Sales in general are beyond awful though.

Good. Save the Christmas songs for December.

I think it will be 12 or 13 by the end of the week and then climb to a new peak next week. It’s genuinely doing well, so the breakdowns are not required for once.

I don’t think Ari will have 3 songs in the top 10 by the end of the week.

Interesting week then, obviously a strong showing for Ariana - will the songs have a big drop tomorrow though. Hoping for Sam and Dua top 10 this week.

I’ve ordered the Splatter vinyl & iTunes - the first Little Mix album I’ve ever bought.

Post-album singles are dependant on playlist support, like any song. Harry has been lucky 4/5 singles so far have been added to Today’s Top Hits, which is the biggest playlist on Spotify. If Spotify gave the same support to post-album singles as it did to new music, there is no reason every album couldn’t have 5/6 singles per era, when people listen to a playlist they don’t care if the song is pre or post album. Hopefully the success of Harry and Dua’s album campaigns will encourage labels to push more post album.

I’m surprised how much it’s stalling on Spotify. It most likely won’t make the top 10 this week. I don’t think it will next week either, as there will most likely be 3 Ariana tracks in the top 10. There isn’t a big ACR clear out coming... then it will be the Christmas tracks pushing everything down. So unless it starts really climbing on streaming I’m doubtful of a top 10 peak.

Levitating #1 on the Today’s Hits playlist and has risen to #16 of the back of that. So it may just sneak in the top 10 this week.

Levitating is #4 on Hot Hits - why is it still so low on the Spotify chart? Maybe a bit of Dua fatigue.

The reason for One Last Time being #1 is heartbreaking, but it also feels right that it’s Ariana’s best seller. BUWGIB is such a non #1, there were much better single options on thank you, next.

Surely she has not wasted an Ariana collab on AIWFC, it already went #1 in America last year, which let’s be honest is all Mariah cares about. A new Christmas song with Ariana would be much more exciting.

Not Giving Up by The Saturdays. I think it was signed, pretty sure they did signed CD singles for every release.

It’s so frustrating that they are letting this era die! A #1 single in the UK and US with no follow up? I don’t care if it’s a post-album single, a new song tacked on at the end, a deluxe version... Just do SOMETHING.

It’s beyond annoying. I don’t know why labels are not trying to resolve this as it must be frustrating that most album campaigns are over the day the album is released.

Wouldn’t be surprised if they are snubbing it as they already added the Madonna/Missy remix to NMF.

Soooo.. This isn’t being sent to radio in the UK? Ugh, this feels like G.U.Y all over again - great video, awful rollout.

Yeah, I thought the same thing. I expected Hallucinate to be much higher.

Sadly, I think it’s game over for Hallucinate. It’s not increasing on Spotify, even with Hot Hits support and it’s decreasing on iTunes and Apple Music. Time for Levitating.

Really poor showing for Katy’s album and an even poorer showing for Dua’s remix album :(

Is Hallucinate back in the top 40 today?
