He’s added 2 more days to LA where Kylie is supporting.

This will be a very partial day as it was only released onto Spotify in the U.K. sometime on Wednesday night so the full first day Thursday streams will come through this evening.

Head passes a billion streams on Spotify with 1,000,361,202

Head is on 999,518,977 streams, it will hit a billion once the update comes through tomorrow (it probably already has).

I hope the OCC update her official charts page to reflect Love Sensation. They’ve updated Madonna’s, and updated Kylie’s albums for the re entries yesterday, so I’m not sure what’s taking them so long with the single. https://www.officialcharts.com/artist/43484/kylie/

The vinyl is only coming in September though according to the website? Also at £20 (with postage) I’m not sure how many they’ll sell.

Given people were freaking out yesterday as it was (apparently) no 64 I’m taking top 10 as a massive win!

In the intro to the Chart Show the presenter said it was a contender for no 1 so I’m going top 10.

Yeah I think it will debut between 11 - 15 which isn’t spectacular but will give Kylie another top 20 hit - something that seemed impossible 5 years ago.

He’s also wrong on the CDs though - the ones that have been dispatched will be included in this weeks numbers.

Here are the actual midweeks Thursday Update (UK) 30 (NEW) Love Sensation Sales: 7,124 (677 yesterday) ZERO CDs - So they'll be included next week it would seem. Sorry I messed up. I posted on the other one the chart without the chart rules. EEK. They'd be No77 today on the old rules (with no rules) Albums 15 X (3,712) 50 Light Years (1,980) 53 Aphrodite (1,925) 89 Kiss Me Once (1,498) No need to apologise to me 🥰

Literally the maths doesn’t work like a bit of critical thinking would be nice.

This is the update published on Tuesday for sales up until Monday: UK Chart (Tuesday update) 8 (RE) X - 3,618 sales 28 (RE) Light Years -1,898 29 (RE) Aphrodite - 1,853 42 (RE) Kiss Me Once - 1,435 Singles 20 (NEW) Love Sensation Sales: 5,692 (Yesterday 714) Today’s post is saying that the new total for Thursday (for sales up until Wednesday) is 6,446 (a difference of 755 which he is saying are the sales for one day), meaning that there is a day of sales missing.

This is inaccurate. The Wednesday midweek had the song at no 25 not no 64.

CDs have been dispatched.

The music video is out to buy on iTunes if anybody wants to throw the song another sale.

Also Love Sensation streamed nearly 800k on Friday across the 3 versions - that’s not far from Padam’s peak streaming, so streams aren’t completely negligible. It’s just difficult to work out how many of those are from the UK

Kylie is credited on the OCC update so it looks like she’ll be officially credited at the end of the week too.

I’d feel a bit more inclined to download more copies if I knew for sure that Kylie was even going to be credited on the chart entry.

Head did 1,111,711 steams yesterday but must have just missed the Global Spotify 200 with filtering as the no 200 song did 1,110,907

It’s entered the Spotify Global top 200 at 184!

The documentary is still no 1 on Netflix U.K. series for a 5th day in a row which seems pretty impressive given the usual high turnover of Netflix shows.

It opens with just under 55k on Spotify, I don’t think this is going to be another Padam

It’s odd that the 90s Greatest Hits appears on the iTunes Charts more often than the way more comprehensive Step Back In Time.
