Another one! Jeez.

Hold On To Go

They could be cleverer with the multi buy options. Those special CD should be 3 for £25 or £30 and/or they could have buy the vinyl, add the CD/ Cassette for £5 etc. They also should do the same for the Tension stock left, daft holding onto cassettes that only appeal to a limited amount of people. At least the pink tension cassette sold out eventually. Add a Tension Cassette for £4 or something low with every purchase.

Its streams ebb and flow between 400k up to 750k plus. Good to see it’s having another flow! Hope PP, Tension and IYE can build too at some point as they seem to be the tracks that might benefit most. Aside from Santa Baby of course. Oh and something off T2. One can dream.

That week was a ride. Signed vinyl, cassette bundles, nip and tuck with Little Mix. 4 years already. Seems so fresh. Weird thinking back to the gap between CGYOOMH and SKOB being 4 years too. That felt far longer.

Story(time)

Totally agree. Tied it all in with the tour announcements. There might be a radio single coming soon or early next year but given she’s had the three collabs and LCA receiving A list Radio 2 attention it’s unlikely. They’ll just maximise the Australia leg to stir up some hype to try and sell as many tickets in the venues that have not sold out. The tour effect and T2 release has improved her overall streaming too.

Midnight Ride fave, 0/10 worst.

Story

35k sales week one totally eclipses the Guest List Edition week one. No doubt long term the Tension era will outsell Disco. UK and worldwide. Especially with the future tour effect.

Probably most of the sales were from that signing session ha ha

Tension II is more fun but Tension is a stronger collection. Tension II hopefully will collect more streams long term outside of Padam of course.

Also Dancing did well on UK streaming. There was an OCC report not so long ago and it was high up. Together with strong downloads it helped it go silver. She promoted the era much more too. …that said surely Magic and Real Groove are close and Tension too. Say Something seemed to drop back by comparison but who knows it may have done better UK only.

The US figure is baffling…surely they dispatched the majority of pre orders? Can’t be that many missing. Maybe US is weighted much more to streaming so that physical sales make less of an impact? Re the UK midweek it’s hard to see but not at all surprising. Week two sales are vanishing for almost everyone and even with price drops it’s not enough to compensate for the base streaming that keeps the classic studio albums and greatest hits collections forever in the top 100. If they’d saved the extended mixes this week it would easily have kept her top 20 because it would guarantee 3000 sales….but they wanted to improve global chart positions with it. Just imagine (no pun intended), Tension 2 would have missed the US top 100 otherwise. Probably why they released it last week.

Biggest perhaps not most successful.

Well we know that platinum certification is coming fairly soon. Wish we had a total for the Tension single, oh and the Disco ones too ha ha.

Her longevity is quite incredible.

Oh I thought they only split bundles if people paid the extra postage cost.

Thank you!

2 on sales is decent. Also let’s not forget some of the CD and cassette will be delivered with the vinyl.

Chance Tension will go Gold this year? T2 going to take a while to reach silver but it should do next year.

Nice spread of figures. Good promo for the tour tickets and hopefully the tour effect will boost streaming and sales over the coming months.
