Yeah i have no idea how Disco did more 

Did it have even more editions released or something?

Maybe people being locked in their houses helped with sales and wanting to escape through buying and listening to music at the time.

 

Disco did have the deluxe, and infinite disco + the remixes and extended as well.

All that didn't release on its first week though. 

 

Weird stuff tbh. Covid didn't really increase physical sales as well as far as i know.

[Maroonx]

Aww I wanted 60K on its first week... But I guess it will end up with 51-53K in the end... Still amazing though

[Haze]

Disco was in a chart battle with Little Mix, and they really pulled out all the stops for it to snatch that #1. With no real contender for that spot this time, I guess they're keeping some things for a good second week.

[oceans]

any songs like padam and tension?

[Blue Jeans]

This album makes me cry from happiness

[Popboi.]

Yesterday's sales were pretty dry despite the signed formats, odd. At least it's same ballpark as DISCO but with healthier streams

Not really TBH lol. 

 

Try "10 out of 10" has that same dance-electronic vibe

It is a progressively worsening sales market every year guys, this isn’t new

Capitalism, sis. It's capitalism. Every album sale counts these days with all those chart battles so they want you to buy as many variants as possible.

 

I could fill a whole book with tricks when it comes to physical and digital variants (artists only selling signed BLACK vinyl because people want colored variants so they buy both, choosing the worse color for the alt cover so fans, again, buy both etc.)

 

It's a big chance for them to cash in, so really they have to take it. It's keeping a huge organization afloat including backups, dancers, etc, enabling tours, promo, everything. It would be nice if it was more spread out with gp support, but that's the domain of a select few these days. Actually, that makes me ask, are tours self-funding, or does some of this money get pumped into tours?

How is Hold On to Now such a magical song? I'm honestly floating while listening, ugh a genius woman

My god she loves that song. If you haven't seen the Radio 2 concert, the moment where she spreads her arms to "Hold On To Now" it's really something else. 

 

 

Oh wow, I see Ben Stokes is dancing for her (1:03:49)

I caved and bought the Bonus edition lmao

 

Honestly, worth it, Drum and Heavenly Body are amazing. I hope they don't make it to streaming anytime soon, yes I am selfish! 

 

A little off topic, do you think the Vegas show will pretty much use the same setlist as the Fan Experience show from yesterday? Seems likely... the residency basically begins in one month. I don't think they have much time to come with a new show, arrangements, etc. 

[Glamthony]

Mother has arrived. Almost half of my Tension orders arrived today 

 

Green Light sounds amazing on vinyl 

 

By the way, the webstore deluxe CD has a shiny foil

[Drowned8World]

Hands, Hold On To Now and Green Light is my trinity

Have you guys heard the new tracks? The ones added to the new deluxe version? I'm curious to know if they are anything like

 

Hold On To Now, Vegas High, Somebody To Love or Hands?

They're different but if you love those four I'm sure you'll love these two, two excellent pop songs.

Not really, but Heavenly Body is a great baby-trance club track, I think you'll adore it since it is like a spiritual sister to Padam and Tension.

Wait...half of Kylie's #1 albums in Australia happened in the past 5 years? 

She didn't have a single album hitting #1 in the 80's AND 90's? 

 

Kiss Me Once was #1 but not Aphrodite? Wtf is this

Listened to the album a few times as I read the last 60+ pages of this thread. it's AMAZING! Album is def in my Top 5 Kylie albums already along with (Fever, Aphrodite, Light Years & Disco) may end up in my Top 3 overall. 

 

My favorite tracks: 

Vegas High

Things We Do For Love

Heavenly Body (top 3 after 2 listens)

Story

Tension

Padam Padam

Hands

 

 

The visualizer for Things We Do For Love made it connect so much harder for me, one of my favorites of hers in years.

 

Just heard Heavenly Body and Drum in the last half hr. Both are so AMAZING deserved to be part of the standard. Heavenly Body is automatically in my Top 3 of the album

 

I added Hello & Running to end of my tracklist, hope they get officially released.

 

Anyone have an alternative tracklist including Heavenly Body and Drum? I'm not the best at coming up with alternative tracklists.

I would put HB after One more time to ease the transition to a more chill tracks and Drum after Love train 

[VENUSWAVE]

nearly 120 plays of Things We Do For Love and that outro hits the exact same as the first time i heard it, song of the CENTURY i fear
