OCC: Mariah Carey's Best Selling Singles & Albums
What a slow start Mariah had in the UK, Someday and Loves Takes Time #1 in the US, but barely making a dent in the UK. Hopefully Emotions can keep rising through the years, it’s one of her most recognisable songs Great to see a recent single almost make the top 10 #Beautiful

Spotify Chart Thread 2018 [VI - November]
That actually isn’t bad? Most songs drop out if they are not on any big playlists to stabilise the initial fall. You obviously don’t understand how Spotify works, hun.

Ava Max - Sweet But Psycho
Sweden showing taste as usual. This needs to be HUGE, the best new pure pop song in a long time.

iTunes / Spotify watch
Isn’t it bizarre that Till the World Ends never appears? As it is the show closer. Is it suffering as it’s does not appear on the Greatest Hits albums?

Why did Wordshaker flop?
I would say it was a combo of Forever Is Over being the lead single and the fact it had a ridiculous title. If they had lead with Ego - I think the story would have been very different. Ultimately it was the right thing to move on to Headlines as we got Higher from it, but I do think they gave up on Wordshaker too quickly.

Artists that Radio 1 refuse to play
It was surprising that they playlisted Mariah in 2013 after snubbing her since 2008. I suppose she hasn’t really released anything since, but I would be amazed if they supported her new era. I think Lady GaGa and Katy Perry are probably the next to go unless either has a HUGE comeback.

Artists that Radio 1 refuse to play
Britney Spears - Hold It Against Me (2011) Kylie Minogue - Get Outta My Way (2010) Robbie Williams - Shame (2010) Madonna - Celebration (2009) Take That - Love Love (2011) Leona Lewis - Trouble (2012) Christina Aguilera - Keeps Getting Better (2008) Kelly Rowland - Lay It On Me (2011) Jennifer Lopez - I’m Into You (2011) Kelly Clarkson - Heartbeat Song (2015) Mariah Carey - Beautiful (2013) I’ve listed some of the (still active) artists who Radio 1 won’t play and the last time they were added onto the playlist. Who (if any) would be most likely to be added in future? And who is at risk of joining them soon?

Sounds Like Friday Night
I thought it was quite good - People are so quick to criticise, but will moan “we don’t have a music show” when it’s axed. The format works well and I think it will be a hit with the audience it’s aiming for (not the 30+ year olds pining for a Top Of the Pops revival).

Demi v Selena v Miley
Selena and Demi are equal in that they are only as big as there last hit and overall in terms of album sales and relevance they are both miles behind Miley.

OCC: Kesha's Top 10 Best Selling Singles
Her "Warrior" era was a complete flop, which was a shame as it was quite a good album.

Spotify Monthly Chart Thread [07/17]
Noticed that Camila is No 1 on the Hot Hits UK playlist, would be great if this could give it the final push for the top 10.

If albums where the act was featured in each song were made
Never gonna happen. I doubt Justin knows or cares where he charts in the UK and Ed already said that taking over the singles chart made him "uncomfortable", so I don't see him doing it either.

Mariah steady at #2, she's closing the gap, with 5000 streams separating her and CB.

Christmas Number One Single Odds
Mariah is up to 3 on Spotify already and she has the Christmas Carpool coming up, I really don't think she is out of the race.

Christmas Number One Single Odds
I think Mariah could do it this year, her streams should be huge that week and she has the Christmas Carpool Karaoke coming up, which should help with downloads.

I'm pretty sure she's still trying to get that second album out.

Couldn't happen to a better song.

Spotify Chart Thread 2014, Part I
As someone else has said, an artist makes next to nothing from Spotify. It's essentially giving away their songs for free. I am 1 of the "12 million" that listen to her on Spotify, but I can go out and buy her CD's or download her album(s). As Spotify becomes more and more popular, album sales will keep decreasing. Unless Spotify find a way to more it profitable for the artist I can see more and more artists following Taylor's path.

Spotify Chart Thread 2014, Part I
It's a wise decision. She's selling in huge amounts, with or without streaming. More artists should follow her lead.

Greatest Hits Inc. (Part 4) // General Discussion
Disappointed The Saturdays don't get a track on the Live Lounge CD, the Mash-Up was great. Pretty much confirms they are no longer a Radio 1 artist.
