Really impressed and surprised that Steps are hanging on in there at #4 and on 8k sales. I expected them to completely collapse. Also, their Ultimate Collection album is up to #12.

Good numbers for Steps. They've managed more than a lot of established acts with big hit singles to push their albums, so they should be really happy with that. They should get to 35k for the week.

I feel exactly the same. I just don't really understand why songs that perform so strongly on iTunes, and bounce back with only the slightest of promotion, still get absolutely no support on streaming. It's bizarre to me. The whole appeal of streaming for me is instantly adding new songs to my playlists, but I could then be on there for ages going from one artist to another, finding old songs I'd forgotten about or discovering new ones. Obviously it doesn't help when Spotify doesn't feature artists like Steps on their main playlists, which is where the bulk of streams come from, but I still struggle to see why they're really not picking up any casual streamers from all this promo.

That article is from back in February. Ryan recently confirmed that the first 10 minutes of the opening episode will feature characters watching the election on TV and it'll be real footage. So, they're not casting a fictional Trump-esque character. He said the season will be about the horrors that happen to the characters on election night and the aftermath of it. https://www.bustle.com/p/this-is-how-ahs-se...ld-expect-53091

He just replied to me to say number 2 is realistic. So, that's as good as most of us were ever expecting anyway. Honestly, Steps grabbing a number 2 album with new material in 2017 is amazing.

Minty just tweeted that Steps' sales did indeed fall off the proverbial cliff. Tomorrow's update should be interesting. Hopefully they're still good for number 2 or 3.

I'd expect Steps to get a big boost soon. Their performance on Mrs Brown's show just aired and it was really good.

Except lyrically and sonically, it's the complete opposite.

Scared...is back in the top 10 on iTunes now. Hopefully it can hold on and then get another boost from Mrs Brown's show tomorrow night.

Yeah number 1 isn't happening. Realistically they can easily get 30k, so number 2 should be on lock.

To be honest, I'd watch Ryan Reynolds clipping his toenails for 2 hours, so you can count me in.

It's all about Scared of the Dark, Story of a Heart and I Will Love Again for me at the moment. Claire's vocal on the latter's chorus is astonishingly good, and the chorus of Story...is easily the closest they've ever been to just becoming ABBA.

I struggled with season 3, it was a bit of a dud, but I stuck with it and season 5 is amazing. Proper brilliant. I must only have 3 episodes left before it's done for good. It's a tight season that doesn't waste any time getting the storyline wound up. The scenes with Freddie and Vera in this season have been absolutely blinding.

Yeah that scene out in the yard was brutal. Freak can fight!

Enjoyed the new episode a lot. It seems like they're definitely setting it up for

The finale was fantastic and that was an absolutely outstanding little series. Seriously, how do you choose which of those women get the awards. They were all amazing. I was so tense for the last 30 minutes of that finale. It built it up so well and I hadn't read the book so I had no idea what was going to happen. Alexander frightened me so much, he was truly awesome in such a hideous role. Nicole and Reese though - wow. Their best roles in a very very very long time.

I adore the Hotel Transylvania movies, they're so good. I can't really bring myself to like Tarzan. It's just a story I've never got invested in. Maybe because it's been told to death in so many ways, much like Peter Pan. I'd never choose to watch either of them.

I totally missed this rate so I can't complain about the results, but Dream Warriors is a great horror movie. It's easily the 2nd best of the whole series. It does feel like number 57 is way too low <_<

Episode 6 just aired.

I think you're probably right but I'm actually really impressed with Shailene in this. I've never rated her but she's good. Very natural and the scenes with her son are really great.

I just use a VPN to trick Youtube into thinking I'm in the US. Works fine that way.

They said the video is being released on 7th April. They have a gig on the 8th don't they, so they'll be getting together to rehearse for that.

Yeah I'd be here for that.

Here for Steps to come thundering in on the 21st to dethrone him :P It won't happen, unless everyone else's album sales are down to around 15k by then, but it would be so amazing.

Yeah DH did deal with some serious issues, but honestly it's one of the campest, most over the top shows I've ever seen, and Devious Maids was basically the same show with different characters. Tonally it couldn't be any further away from Big Little Lies, which is at times very sinister and dark.
