No Sleeep

Still can’t believe that Holly Valance song exists (although it’s been removed from iTunes now). Forgetting anything about the lyrical content why is she trying to squeeze as many words as she possibly can in?

If it means Victoria Beckham gets #1 over Harry Styles, ABSOLUTELY

Don’t care about Harry just devastated Victoria isn’t there!

From what I’m seeing him and his wife are 2 spoiled brats, all he’s really alleging is they don’t like his wife (which doesn’t exactly make either of them victims) but provides absolutely no context as to why that is. Considering her (billionaire) family’s links with Trump and Elon Musk I can see why the Beckhams would hesitate to welcome her into the family with open arms!

So she’s charted in every year of this decade so far except for 2022. Well, unless you include Santa Baby.

Wait what! Even Padam couldn’t do that

Definitely wishful thinking but we can pray!!

Well wasn’t she like 72 last week? She went 40-72 now back up to at least top 40 so it’s pretty clear she’s on heavy rotation at Amazon while Kylie’s being rested a bit

It just shows that Amazon is very unpredictable, they clearly pushed Kylie way more than anybody else last week and now they’re making up for it by pushing Gwen.

I’m fairly certain she will be in the first update, whether she can stay there is another story. I have a feeling she can do it

With Christmas falling on a Thursday that should see the traditional hits “struggle” a bit since the OCC don’t tend to account for holiday boosts in their estimates, I think she could easily get another week at #1

I was contemplating putting £1000 on her on Wednesday when she was 5/4 but just put £100 on, kicking myself that I could’ve been £1200 better off! The thing that put me off was she tended to slip as the week went on in previous weeks, I should’ve had more faith in her!

Thanks for the £125 profit Kylie!! Can’t believe Slow isn’t her most recent #1 anymore. Her span of #1s is now from 1988-2025!

Well that was record labels trying to stretch the rules to benefit their own artists (which still and will always happen), ACR is the OCC arbitrarily altering their own rules to prolong their relevance by pretending things are the way they used to be.

Because it’s blatant chart manipulation and they know it And yes I know the alternative is worse but let’s not sugarcoat it lol.

I can’t relax until I know! This will be a long day

14k (and counting) paid for sales in this day and age is incredible And even if you removed them she’d still be a strong contender. She so deserves this. And my bank account so deserves the £225 I’ll get if she wins

I don’t care if it sells 0 copies ever again after today as long as it gets that #1!!!

Cannot believe we’re (very possibly) on the eve of another Kylie #1. 22 years later

I think Mariah’s annual campaign is hurting the song more than helping it at this point, it’s kind of overexposure. I’m a massiveeee Lamb but I couldn’t even enjoy the HFIA era knowing it’d be wrapped up within a week to start the 3-month long Christmas campaign 🫠 Sorry, not to derail the thread. Buy Xmas!

I can see the OCC wilfully underestimating Wham’s Thursday streams since they’d obviously rather have Kylie be Xmas #1 than a Wham hat trick (I will never forgive them for doing Mariah out of #1 by a few hundred copies against Ava Max in 2018!)

Should we expect an update today? The anticipation is killing me!

I take it no news is good news or else they’d be rallying the troops

It’s awful but it’s the best 59p I’ve ever spent if it helps her get the #1!

Let’s hope SayHey are on it today, although I imagine somebody will be in trouble yesterday after Kylie’s odds shortened so much before the midweeks were “official”
