Who's listening to Delirium's non-singles?  

I guess the fact that it has 219 songs on it helped.

[istan4badgalriri]

Zara's album track streams are really bad, people only listen to her hits

and they are, check the other thread 

 

it’s the top 10 most streamed albums overall but without the singles (to show which albums are on the list only because they had hits)

[LoKoPaNdA]

Lana's album is one of the few that did amazing in both physical/digital and streaming

Oh right, I wasn't looking at the numbers. Thank you for explaining, I wasn't paying attention

!!!! The amount of times people claimed that Anti was only charting on Billboard 200 because of the hit singles or how all of it’s high streams comes from Work.

-   People clearly enjoy the album as a whole.

this one got a lot of playlists support too (I think it was a single somewhere)

 

 

ANTI streams are so impressive considering two album tracks are also interludes
