  1. "Senior citizen" question - lol - how are Youtube videos counted for chart positions? Is watching the video once on YT equivalent to hearing it once on Spotify?
  2. The fact that it's getting 1st play from R1 and TBM's Happier being a hit is hopefully going to give EOSN some cred to get higher placings on NMF and potentially some new ones.
  3. 955K, should easily do 1M by end of the day. Pretty impressive!

  5. If I were Warner , I’d focus on the uk to begin with
  6. 510K and it’s not even 24 hrs yet! Well, almost .
  7. If was going to be this cheap-ass and took not more than a few days, one wonders why she couldn't film one for HOTN as well.
  8. I don't know what it is, but I ADORE Real Groove! Both the original and the Dua version
  9. This was a try-hard album - trying to ape her own formula or others' and hence, wasn't successful. But a decade later, I still think "into the blue" is a lovely song with a very nice classy yet low budget video. I also loved the title track, "Feels so good" and B-side Sparks NOTHING ELSE
  10. I love a few songs from Disco and don't care about a few. But in a decade, something tells me I'll still be listening to songs like Real groove, miss a thing, etc. but don't know how many from Tension I'll be listening to.
  11. The song is sooooo good! Fierce is the word that comes to mind
  12. This is shaping up to being a hit. Returning holidayers and partygoers need something to ease into September (the new January!)
  13. Same. SA, confide in me, Devil. ATL and Certain are my constant top 5. But they change positions within !
  14. My only issue with light years is that it’s a pleasant collection of pop songs but there wasn’t much mainstream single material other than the first 3 singles. Or maybe a 4th could’ve been the title track. I’m not saying there weren’t any bops on the album, just saying none (bar the first 3 singles) seemed strong enough to be singles.
  15. Oh, and my sweet Padamic_Tension , great topic!
  16. Best decision ever! To me - songs like OOANLT, Padam or Head are excellent pop songs that just happen to be sung by Kylie. But songs like SA, all the lovers and Confide are songs meant for Kylie and I can’t imagine anyone else singing it. SA was that best lead single to bring her back into Public attention as it reminded the world what we love Kylie for - effortless easy on the ear catchy pop wirh a sense of euphoria and gay abandon. In short - it’s got the Kylie DNA. I suspect it OANLT was the lead single, it may have changed the narrative to “Kylie is adopting a dark clubby euro sound image” Or something and the renaissance wouldn’t have gone so smoothly. Kudos to Parlo for the game plan - (re)intro K to the world with a sound she’s known best for and doesn’t antagonise anyone… and then work on the darker edgier sound for Fever.
  17. Every song should have been a single. One of my most favourite and well aged albums of all time
  18. This is all coming together nicely. And right in time for the later part of summer I like the idea of a clubby Ibiza themed video. Low cost, and can give it a clubby edgy vibe as well. Now they just have to figure out how the promo and radio/social media campaigns will work.
  19. At this point in time, if I were Kylie or her team, just pick MOM or EOSN and promote the hell out of it - vinyls, appearances, whatever. All these random collabs are so confusing even for for fans to keep track or support/stream for chart benefits. Even worse when there are 2 in contention.
  20. It's a great dance track in the same vein as Speakerphone, Skirt, Butterfly, etc. but in the current version, it's so hardcore dance and less mainstream. I'd be surprised if ANY mainstream session playlisted this (aka, I'm not expecting this to do much on the chart or streams as it caters to a very limited audience). It also doesn't (as of now) have a viral element in it to make it explode on Tiktok. I love it btw.
