Reckon the albums will go: 1. Charli - 25K 2. Bon Jovi - 23K 3. Taylor - 22K 4. Billie - 18K Will be close though Bon Jovi already at 18K which is 2K off what Billie did last week, so can’t see Billie getting better than fourth, I doubt Taylor has any physicals left to sell really bar the town buyers; so can’t see her topping her last week of 24K which was almost a third physicals. Charli’s streaming I reckon will just about overtake Bon Jovi

Really hope Billie doesn’t get it and Taylor’s just waiting to send some physicals tomorrow!

Excited to see Eminem’s album sales, R&B will be more streaming heavy but reckon he could hit 100K. He is the third biggest seller of the century behind Taylor and Rihanna

If she can make it past Thursday I reckon she’ll do it with the bank holiday, it’ll be on alot of playlists Friday/Saturday/Sunday.

Bye bye Kings of Flop!

But driving liscence and good for you came out before the album so they’re the songs that could chart again but are too old

That drop for Dua is terrible for second week. Considering Future Nostalgia held up pretty well, it actually had a 2-1 chart run making #1 in its second week. But I guess she only really had 1 proper hit which was back in November.

Hope Taylor can overtake King of Leon, I think she will unless King of Leon have copies they haven’t shipped/sent as I imagine she is looking to land around 25K

The fact Illusion was released three weeks before the album rather than the week before, also the fact her first single was back in November. I doubt she planned to release in May… Marketing / promotional activity makes no sense, she had no choice but release Illlusion when she did, as couldn’t release after the Taylor mania.

Dua very lucky to make #1, reckon she planned to release the album in Taylor’s week but pushed it back 2 weeks to get some attention #1, very lucky she didn’t just go for 1 week as would have missed it.

Yes I was!

I think fortnight was a terrible choice, had she playlisted, radio’d and made a single of either I Can Do It With A Broken Heart or Down Bad I’d imagine they’d still be top 3 right now. Fortnight is only higher due to playlist support and being promoted as the single.

There’s only 3 days of sales left rather than 4 so highly doubtful. Meaning Taylor would need to double her sales she managed in four days in just a 3 day window without the weekend boost, and Dua to sell and stream nothing for her to catch up… I.e. not happening

These streaming numbers proving Fortnight was a terrible choice. Anybody with a brain could have known; I Can do it within a broken every or Down Bad were the most commercially viable single choices. Fortnight literally has no hook or catch? It’s like when she released the terrible End game because it had future and Ed Sheeran? She needs to stop making songs singles purely because they have a huge name collaborator, it doesn’t make a song stick.. Reckon it’ll continue declining relatively fast until the eras tour kicks in and it’ll stabilise, but hopefully she’ll release a proper second single by June. Dont think anybody even puts it in the top half of the 31 track list. Even failing the two obvious choices So Long London, But Daddy I Love Him, The Black Dog and Guilty As Sin would have all performed better also as they actually have a hook (these would have made sense as later singles after the first two though)

Wow, that is pretty terrible comparison. Most other artists are beating their Spotify debuts.

I don’t know why she didn’t put the Barbie single on the album? It sounds relatively similar and was a huge hit, it would have definitely helped streaming numbers and kept it around a bit longer from people listening to it. She’d also have a smash from this album on top.

Taylor should have kept the sale open for 24 hours longer, why’d she close it Wednesday midday.

Sabrina’s stolen #1 from her auto play of the week, robbed Taylor of a second week!

She got loads of streams Tuesday/Wednesday because her U.K. tour was due to start Wednesday before it got cancelled (when then made headlines as her concert got cancelled making more listen)

Can see Taylor falling down to about 25K next week so can’t see Dua losing to be honest. Dua has demand for vinyls/physical sales as well, so although I can’t imagine Dua having lots of longetivity compared to FN I do think she will do well on first week sales

I don’t think she will have sold at least 12k based on just an email/taylor nation (not many followers) promoting it. She’ll need minimum 12K by the lead Sabrina has, probably 15K

She’s not posted about it anywhere on social media either, just tweets or emails.

7K sales in a week isn’t decent for the Brit female with the most #1s/top 5s in the UK, especially as it willl drop off the charts straight away. 7k sales will not even return the cost of making the album

Same, I used to get that for Olivia Rodrigo obsessed and Hoziers too sweet, but now it’s Sabrina

Flop shop boys missing #1 like their last lot of albums. Ready for Taylor to hopefully ship off 12k CDs to get #1, although is there really demand straight after the album?
