Bjork

Oh my signed vinyls at her store "100% written in blood" <3

yes underperforming in a very stable way hahah ☠️ actually I think every big name is in danger of underperforming like Ed, I'm sure it would be the same for Adele even Taylor would be in danger... actually with Fortnight, it got to #1 on the power of her gigantic fanbase but the song didn't go viral on tiktok and so the song was not a 10-week #1 I reckon the future #1s will be random songs that go viral on titkok, mostly unknown or little known artists like we've seen in the last few months with the big hits (Messy, Ordinary, That's so true, Sailor song etc)

again Show me love is #2 when combined

They key is playlist support Right Now Lorde has great playlist On Spotify, nothing on Amazon New Benson is the other way around Only the big tiktok hits do well everywhere cos they dont depend on playlists

This week we also had Michael Jackson peaking at #13 with Liberian Girl, the 9th single from Bad, which was released in the UK but not in the US The video had a lot of celebs, including my Debbie Gibson :D

what over-saturation?

Lorde down to #111 on Amazon, think this is sadly gonna cost her a top 10 place come Friday :/

last week Fri-Mon was holidays, streams will be much higher this week

Last Monday was a holiday, virtually a Sunday in terms of streams, hence the big increase

oh very nice climbs today Love me not up to#4!! Undressed #8, Friends #9, Lorde #11 Charli #27, Damocles #47 Just realised Show me Love is #2 combined!

Kind nice one from Gloria Estefan, I liked that one

Lorde on the other hand is going in the wrong direction and down to #105 on Amazon

My concept of songwriting is a bit different, i need storytelling and personal input from the writer that makes it relatable This is generic songwriting

Lol you're defending the undefendable. Isn't Jeff Buckley your fav artist? Do you think he'd come up with such a cliche idiotic lyric? This is the basically the 2020s equivalent of Bette Midler's Wind beneath my wings

Oh I thought Lorde being added as track #18 was quite high for their standards new Benson is definitely too low, doesn't help much being added as track #56 HH are really pushing for the Selena/Benny track this week, they're the HH cover + moved to track #10

oh my I just realised I love the 1st half of 1989 with Madonna, Paula Abdul, Debbie Gibson, Sam Brown, Cindy Lauper but the 2nd half is the worst thing ever, Jive Bunny, bad SAW, bad euro dance, you cannot get worse Sonia is the start of the quality descend from SAW, really average singer and average song and someone who doesn't have the x-factor and ouch that Better Midler song is diabolical. One of the worse, if not the worst, ballads of the history of music, the 80s equivalent of Perfect and Ordinary.

Newbies on Amazon: 69 Myles Smith 70 Benson Boone 90 The Lorde

not really, Shaboozey and Alex Warren joined Ed at his pop up gig at Coachella Noah Kahan was at Nashville

No need to Lol :/ Don’t Go Away was a single in many territories same as Don’t Panic or Sonnet

Worst song of the yer for me so far... those (baad) lyrics

Bjork-Yoga ;) Oasis - Din’t go away Recently Taylor - Maroon

Guns N'Roses is my favourite of the newbies, Patience is one of my fav ballads from them It's Alright I much prefer the original, don't think PSB did much with it. Love some of their covers, particularly Always on my mind, but this is too plain Breakthru, I never liked that one and it's the kinda song from Queen that I really hate nice to see Dandy's fav band back already with a 2nd hit

no Lorde :/ do they usually playlist Lana?

expected drop from The Lorde but decent figures also love how people re giving so many streams to Ribs <3 <3 <3 what a hidden gem!!

^Saw that and I couldn't make it make sense
