charts discussion UK: "Midnights" #1, 204k; Anti-Hero #1; should have 8 songs inside top 10

SMASH!

[byzantium]

Wow.  Just.  Wow.  

[Bribe]

Her power is just scary  

[State of Grace.]

Omg I thought she wouldnt cross 200k after the mids

[Ampersand13]

I'm just floored this is ridiculous in the best way possible 

[UnusualBoy]

Insane numbers for an international act, I mean the only acts to pass the 200k in the past 10 years are Ed with Divide (672k) and Adele with 25 (800k) and 30 (269k)

 

She killed it

Coldplay did 235k with A Head Full of Dreams, and I think OneDirection might have done it too. Either way these numbers are just...

The absolute CLOWNERY 

Watch him religiously avoid this thread now

I've no words. She's overperforming everywhere this era.  

 

Graham Norton promo today so it should remain stable for 2nd week.

Voyage by ABBA did it too last year but these are incredibly high numbers. I don't think I ever expected Top 2 albums in the UK to surpass 100k each again. It feels like couple weeks before Christmas pre-streaming era.

[Boysdontcry]

Does anyone know the chart position of the 3rd song? It must’ve missed the top 10, assuming these positions are from a chart countdown.

 

I’d be surprised if it did miss the top 10 considering she was originally predicted for #1-3 in the UK.

Not @Hot Volcano embarrassing themselves like when they claimed Chromatica would be bigger in the UK than folklore

 

 

Now, while Chromatica crawls its way to 200k folklore is racing towards 400k

So only 2 international and 2 female act did 200k+ in the past 10 years 

Taylor being a US act at that maybe moving to the UK was the best decision
