  1. Finally!!! Though that release date is a laugh. Maybe they thought she wouldn't get a #1 on a quiet week anyway? It's hard to predict if she could but i thought with such a vocal fanbase that she could push 15-20k units with all these variants?
  2. Thank God! I was convinced it was getting shelved. Over a month late but still salvageable.
  3. The way all her socials comments are nothing but requests for thr album. I fear she's losing fan goodwill without an announcement.
  4. If this album has been scrapped I'm gonna be so annoyed 😭 where tf is the announcement??
  5. Down to 75 on AM now. The likes of Castle On The Hill and Shape of You by Ed Sheeran are now above it... don't really know if something has prompted their rise or people just rarely listen to new releases. Hopefully it can bounce back a bit after the weekend but it's not looking good. Maybe the album announcement can bring a bit of hype
  6. Well without Spotify support it was never gonna be a hit. It's re-peaking at 42 on AM currently but that can't carry it. I imagine it would easily be top 40 for 4+ weeks if it had the same support on Spotify but it isn't gonna happen. Think we may have to just deal with the fact she's unlikely to get another hit from the album and hope that the label are happy with a small but strong fanbase. Sounds like the album is definitely coming at least so that's a win.
  7. 42 on Apple! Smash. Those playlists are working it seems Edit: well fluctuating between 42 and 45 for me? Dunno how these charts are working lol
  8. Top 40 easily secured then. Thank God. Would have probably made top 20 with HHUK though 😩
  9. 47 on AM! New peak? Hope it continues to rise. I imagine It Girl was falling by now?
  10. Ouch! I'm thinking it's likely to miss the top 40 if it's fallen 12 spots in 1 day?? This has not been a good launch between the HHUK snub and the video being restricted. Ugh. I think getting rid of the "F**k You For Now" on streaming and just having it titled FUFN would work a bit better also.
  11. Spotify ruining it again ffs. "The Door" and "Apple" both still being on Hot Hits UK is wild. I'd love to know what their criteria is for adding songs. Being one of the only non-album bomb songs to debut in the top 100 should put you in a pretty good position? It's not like it's an Indie song that pulled 15k streams. I just don't get it. I need Apple Music to end their domination immediately
  12. Thank God for physicals. This is obviously gonna tumble a few positions every day thanks to Spotify and YouTube but at least it'll be a lock for top 40. Maybe even top 20?
  13. Looks like 12 Playboi Carti songs above and they seem to be dropping pretty fast. Hope this can crack the top 40 and slowly rise afterwards. Apple Music supremacy 🙌🏻, just wish it had a bigger market share.
  14. Yeah this is the only time I've noticed a Youtube restriction other than Tove Lo's last EP music videos which had full on nudity in them. Hope her team can fix this because it seems to massively be impacting views.
  15. Seems like an okay start. Just hoping it can manage the top 40 at least. Should be easy with physicals? Seems like the album release is locked at least unlike Perrie and Leigh. Going into album release with 2 top 40s should be decent. Hope they pick a quiet week where she should easily manage a #1 with decent physical sales.
  16. Just listened to the clean version on AM by accident. Sounds great still but it's literally still titled "FUFN (F*ck You For Now)" but uncensored?? Like what's going on there lol? The title probably should have just stayed as FUFN in general or maybe change the clean one to "Forget You For Now". Feel like her team have messed up with the explicit title of this and it looks like it's affecting Youtube as well.
  17. The video may not have hit every beat but there's clearly a vision there and it was pretty well made with lots of cool moments. She's one of the few popstars still trying with videos along with the likes of Gaga so I appreciate it! The dancing at the end was great, wish she did more of it. Also a little bit Gaga-esque. I'm still kind of worried over the performance of the song though. It seems like it's doing similar to It Girl so far and that wasn't even a single. Ugh. Can only hope it takes off somehow
  18. Part of the reason I moved to Apple Music (in addition to the sound quality + Apple deal) is because Spotify's playlisting is absolutely awful and never makes any sense. It's a conspiracy theory I'm interested in. I'm convinced it's not even the label's fault and Spotify themselves considering I've never thought the same about AMs playlists (yet).
  19. Incredible song. Absolute banger and her best since AOMD. Deserves to be a major success but I can't actually wrap my head around the playlisting. What is going on? She really does have hype behind her and playlisting is the only missing ingredient. We can only hope people love it enough that it catches on despite this. I'll even give it a download if it's on Amazon (I don't have iTunes). Edit: tbf the Apple Music playlisting (which I use) doesn't seem that bad? It's near the top on A-List Pop which is one of the most pushed playlists. Also in the top half of Today's Hits. Spotify 1when I catch you...

    Damn this is crazy. Looks like Vanish Into You is still the push on Apple Music as its in the big playlists. On first listen I liked Garden of Eden infinitely more so I think that might be a better one to push but now I've listened to Vanish multiple times I'm kind of obsessed with it. The beauty of this album.

    Having to listen to this station at work daily is actually hell lol. Why on Earth are they playing Teddy Swims that much alongside all the 1 year old songs that are already done to death? Is it any wonder we're getting fewer entries into the top 40 when one of the biggest radios won't play anything other than Benson Boone, Teddy Swims and Boots Stop Workin?
  22. Is anyone else seeing a huge amount of promo on socials for Jade? I've seen: two different Tiktok ads (each showing 2 short clips of a song - so promoting all 4 of them). Tiktok ad of FUFN. Instagram stories and posts being promoted of her Brits performance. I hope people who aren't fans yet are seeing this too lol. Either way it shows the label is pushing her pretty hard? Really hoping FUFN can manage to be a decent bit so their faith is rewarded.
  23. Still holding at #7 on AM and #1 in major cities like London, Manchester etc. Pretty good. Expecting a mild drop on Spotify but not too bad I hope. Random question but does anyone know how much bigger Spotify is than AM? Twice as big? I've noticed songs I'm rooting for tend to do better on AM so I'm hoping it makes up some ground in popularity lol
  24. Whilst I think the song is good and deserves way better. I don't find myself going back to it as much as AOMD and MC. Especially AOMD. Hope it performs better in the future though. I know we've only heard a little snippet of It Girl/That's Showbiz Baby but that sounds like a smash to me. Potential third single?
  25. I recently changed from Spotify to Apple Music and noticed this is #26 on there. Pretty good! The girls always seemed to chart better on AM from what I can remember. Though I am surprised it doesn't seem to be approaching Spotify in popularity unfortunately.
