Awesome newses!! Padam platinum next :)

So it was on 555,230 as of 28th October. In 2024 to that date it averaged around 3,700 a week so it could very well go platinum in the next 2 or 3 weeks. Tension the album must be teetering on the brink of Gold too (96,532 as of 28th oct) Exciting!

Agree completely! She could even appear in an advert with the song playing. I know “At Christmas” was kinda a single with a bit of promo but it’s mad it gets 5 times the Spotify streams of “ Christmas Isn't Christmas Till You Get Here” defo scope for the latter to grow.

I just asked Alexa to play Christmas songs to test if Tom G was getting mega-pushed & it played Wham! first. Then Elton & Tom was third song.

I saw them live in the last few years & they were awesome, great tracks to dance to. Their Brother Sister album is a classic & the Greame Park mix of Back to love is a house classic.

LOVE White Lies first album & Farewell To The Fairground is a proper indie banger. Checking on bpi the album is gold, 2nd album silver & this is 1st single cert

Hoping for a stand alone release pre-tour with Kylie on the Og backing track, with Prince BVs then an electro-funk version to modernise. I think Kylie’s version should do the first verse totally acapella to drum home the virginal aspect of the lyrics. Be the first to kiss these lips, Lead astray these fingertips, Be the first to spread these wings, (pervarama!) Show me love and everything. Normally I hate general terms in pop lyrics like ‘everything’ (Bananarama’s Stuff like that I’m looking at you) but here it totally makes sense as she’s just emerged from her chrysalis & is wanting to experience the world. Little bit obsessed with Baby Doll atm

I just don’t get the popularity of Riptide. Whenever I see UK all-time streaming lists I play the song to remind myself what it sounds like & it leaves zero impression on me.

Bought it then played it. Might not be playing again eek

Some huge songs getting extra platinum awards in the same week. Three of them were on my mum’s 40th wedding anniversary playlist on Saturday night so defo multi-generational appeal

Thanks, good to know. I think releasing extended mixes for download only the week of release didn’t help streaming numbers but most of the tracks have over a million streams or maybe several million by now.

How can they count a stream for the collabs for two albums though? I’m on Apple Music & three are still greyed out. Presuming MR, DA & EOSN don’t count towards T2

So Jason, Cathy Dennis, Lisa Stansfield, Marti Pellow & Pete Waterman in the documentary but nothing from Band Aid II on the new version. Guess it’s really only Kylie that’s still having hits from that version.

Anyone know why T2 tracks (apart from singles) are still not showing on her kworb page? Found something last week saying Soneone for me has over 2m Spotify plays which would put it in her top 150 https://kworb.net/spotify/artist/4RVnAU35WR...google_vignette

Well imma gonna make a Dannii playlist tonight & stream her more. It’ll be most of neon nights plus a few others basically.

She’s cited the big brother mix of Confide & hinted at a deeper direction like IP so we may get piano house mixed with alt dance 90s flavour which I’d be delighted with!

After the sales write up, the certs are next on my list to view & I do check them every week. Really appreciate your hard work & love the new format. Didn’t SEB’s murder just pass a million at the start of the year? Decent to be up to 1,800,000 already. Hope it’s resurgence has financed a top quality new album from her.

I think with Kylie fans doing their best of t1 & t2 playlists then t1 should be holding no time

Padam is on almost 168 million streams. The single peaked at No.8 in the UK and has 555,230 chart sales to date. Padam is on 168m streams worldwide on Spotify according to kworb so if she has 168m in the UK over all platforms then it must have done so much more on Apple in the UK. Is that usual does anyone know? Apple has the bigger chunk of the Uk market? Or Kylie fans are more likely to be on Apple?

Late to the party but I was pretty convinced I got this correct guessing Sugarcubes with Hit

Well said!

Like a prayer x2 Plat & 2 Dusty certs make me happy

And b-sides! There’s enough tracks recorded for each album project that don’t make it & a handful end up getting leaked & fans lament not having them on streaming.
