Life is short, so if three of them want to, then they should just go for it! Mel B, Melanie C and Emma could absolutely work as a trio.

It's funny that neither Tension Live item was said to be Limited and yet sold out only days after release date, meanwhile two of the supposed limited Tension II CDs are still available after 18 months. Personally I think they underestimated how many Tension Live copies to print... which makes a difference from them usually vastly overestimating the amount to press of a lot of her other releases... can they try and find a happy medium, please? x

Not to nitpick but it actually went as high as #91! Unfortunately this campaign didn't seem to have quite as much interest as 5 years ago with Mollie. It can be a tall order to encourage people to spend 99p though, so I still think it's cool that we managed to get it showing up in the Top 100 for a day.

This surge being caused by men (and not a typical core audience of Madonna type of man x) was not how I'd imagine a Madonna song would get such a revival, but here we are lol. I was browsing the sound on TikTok and it's almost entirely teenage boys / young adult men who are using the sound. It's fascinating how/why things can go viral and what strikes a chord with an unlikely demographic.

Personally I'm not blown away by Coming Up Roses, but I really like Taste Back - I would be happy if that became a single somewhere down the line.

Get those sales Melanie!

Many of these battles are going to be so hard to choose between! 😱

I like the sound of it tbh

1 Nelly Furtado - Try (favourite) 2 Delta Goodrem - Eclipse 3 Chappell Roan - After Midnight 4 Lily Allen - 22 5 ROSALÍA - Reliquia 6 LiSA - Akeboshi (明け星) 7 Kesha - RED FLAG. 8 Kelly Clarkson - Haunted 9 FKA twigs - Stereo Boy

It's such a strong album! So pleased it made the Top 5 in numerous countries (and #1 in Australia!). I don't think there's a weak song across the 11. Adult Size Medium is huge, what a closing song!

Hopefully I've redeemed myself in your eyes in the other poll

What Took You So Long? Look at Me second!

I would have to say Northern Star, but All I Need to Know is close behind it

I'm moving some posts into this new thread

Definitely more to the point! Thank you 🙏🏻 It’s up to #92 now! At least it’s hanging around, seeing as yesterday it had briefly dipped back outside the Top 100.

I mentioned on PJ what was happening & that it had reached #91 on iTunes! I wonder if we can make the title of this thread more eye catching for more members here to check what’s happening. I altered it a bit but it’s a bit wordy 😅

Hopefully a few more people might consider downloading it! But it's cool we managed to get it into the iTunes chart at all *.*

Fingers crossed for the next update!

There's design aspects that I'm not keen on. Bravado reusing the same silhouettes as used on the rugby ball doesn't exactly make the coin feel unique/special, to me. It comes across as another piece of thrown together merch without much thought put into it, very "this will do". I'm not keen on the individual photos used for the girls not being from the same photoshoot. I know a lot of people won't notice/care about details like that lol, but why have Geri/Melanie C/Emma photos from the Spiceworld album shoot but not Victoria and Mel B? I'm in no rush to order anything. Honestly I have a feeling there will be price cuts a few months from now. For instance the cheapest Iron Maiden item is currently reduced from £18.50 to £11.10.

Hey! I've been well thank you It's good to be back and I couldn't miss this occasion! Fingers crossed this will show up in the next Kworb update, if it does I'll mention it on Popjustice and on Reddit to try and spread the word.
