charts discussion Oscars Push 200%-Plus Sales Gain for JT, La La Land, Moana

[UNNAMI]

 

The biggest seller on Feb. 26 among all the songs performed on the show was Timberlake’s former Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit “Feeling,” which sold about 12,000 downloads on Sunday -- up from 4,000 on the previous day. The combined versions of “How Far I’ll Go” went from 4,000 to 6,000, while “City of Stars” climbed from 1,000 to 5,000 and “Audition” grew from less than 1,000 to more than 2,000. “Both Sides, Now” (3,000), “The Empty Chair” (1,000) and “Lovely Day” (1,000) all zoomed from negligible figures.

 

Increases earned from the show were not limited to the songs performed on the Oscars broadcast. In addition, the film that won the most awards (six) of the evening, La La Land, saw its three separate soundtrack and score albums rise from a combined total of about 1,000 to 3,000 downloads sold. 

It’s expected that in the full tracking week, which ends at the close of business on Thursday, March 2, there will be sizable gains for all of the above songs, in addition to the nominated scores (Jackie, La La Land, Lion, Moonlight and Passengers).

I wish How Far I'll Go was a hit   It deserved Let it Go success.
