B*Witched - TBA
PObCtI5yy14 ETA: they said they're looking at touring in 2024, so I'm guessing they're going to spend 2023 building up to it.

Eternal - Always & Forever (1993)
I was listening to it and dare I say that I'll Be There, Sweet Funky Thing and Never Gonna Give You Up could've been singles with radio edits (I'll Be There can be a bit repetitive)? Sweet Funky Thing was a promotional single in the US, so clearly they saw potential there.

Breathe ● 25 years on
Exactly. Even if Kylie had more success at the time, I don't see Breathe going anywhere past #9. Even if Madonna had released it during Ray of Light. And yes, it does really sound of that 96-98 era of dreamy light electronica.

Union J - Album/EP
I assume that's why they were advised not to talk about it - not bring the attention that they bombed to the press.

Eternal - Always & Forever (1993)
Even Amazing Grace could've been a hot single with club mixes :music: Eternal's digital platform presence is a mess though. Someone really needs to campaign to sort it out :arrr:

Spice Girls - Chart Runs & Sales Thread: UK
That's assuming we have the same certification level 75 years from now.

B*Witched - TBA
I'm not that surprised to be honest - Sony knows that they can benefit from their backcatalogue essentially being promoted. The new music will be done on the cheap with lots of physicals I'm sure, which might end up with small profit + if it's a 360 deal they might get money from tours etc.

Spotify: Most streamed Spice Girls songs
I'm guessing that part of it might've been that they didn't ship/produce more copies of it than they did initially + the lower sales climate in March. It actually had a fairly long chart run (17 weeks). Plus, I feel like once it failed to hit number one stores probably stopped featuring it in a prominent position, something that probably affected sales in what would normally be its biggest sellings weeks bar the first week.

Meghan Trainor - Takin It Back
If it does, I propose we all forbid TikTok.

All I See ● 15 years on
I mean, X is pretty much a consequence of having such a long production time I assume - wasn't there like a three cd demo disc for it? Usually she experiments a bit at the beginning of the album production, but ends up choosing a path pretty quickly. I guess here because of the cancer diagnosis she ended up recording so sporidically that she just never got to the point of really sitting down and focusing on a "sound". All I See is ok basically, but painfully average. When Kylie's actual successes in the US have been europop sounding songs it's always baffled me that they tried so hard to push her down an R&B sound when they attempted to have her succeed.

Maybe this reissue will push it past 110k :cheer: :lol:

Neon Nights ● album discussion
^ Goodbye Song is too barebones of a song; it has funny lyrics but I don't think it has much else going for it. They probably thought Creep was too sonically similar to Put the Needle On It and when it "only" got #7... In related news: @1636678524080885760

Zara Larsson - Can't Tame Her
To be honest, with the amount of radio support it's getting you'd think it would be higher up, but I guess it goes to show you the (unfortunate) power Spotify playlists have gained.
-
B*Witched - TBA
If they're doing a tour, I can't see them doing anything big. In all honesty, it would probably be better for them to pair up with another act, be a support act or do lots of festivals to build up some hype. I'm just not sure people are going to go and see a B*Witched solo tour in any big numbers.

Girl ● album discussion
Yeah, they obviously exhausted the vaults during the X-Factor era - since the album was put together so quickly, I really don't think there's a wealth of unreleased material to begin with. Unfortunately, it wouldn't surprise me if they think Dannii's UK profile is too low at the moment to justify a vinyl release there.

Belinda Carlisle - Big Big Love + EP
Hm, it sounds ok, but I don't love the vocal to this - sounds very chipmonk, but maybe it's been sped up for that clip.
-
Jesy Nelson - TBA • 1st Album
I think it's a bit overdramatic to say the boat has sailed for them solowise - I feel like radio will probably give each of them at least one shot with their first single, but they better be good essentially. Jesy will obviously struggle after the Bad Boys disaster though; I think it'll take a lot for radio to support her again but it will all come down to how good her management is.

Drag Race Sverige (Sweden)
For reference "Mamma är lik sin mamma" is a version of "Sadie, The Cleaning Lady" - except it's "Mother is like her Mother" - it would be a much better choice!

Siw Malmqvuist makes Lox Cakes
npEzTfLZt9s Since she was the latest judge on Swedish Drag Race I assume she's fair game to post here - plus, you know there's some fatsos on these forums that needs to eat healthy (unlike me, I'm a skinny Kween) :cheer:

Maybe one of the most bizarre lipsyncs, but this is the song they did it to: DpkFjgKcnKE If I had a choice, I would've choosen this: w_n0Ls4taMs

Drag Race Sverige (Sweden)
For people that don't get it "Unna dig" = "Treat yourself" Unna is basically the "treat" word, except it's a bit more than that but it's great
