Hi,


Are these just RO or her totals incl existing tracks from DL1 FN and droplets etc?

No, just RO tracks

Houdini still doing over 2M almost 6 months later. I honestly dont understand why they didnt push it harder instead of moving on so quickly

So how does that tally with 15.8m "filtered"?

 

Sorry - just trying to get my head around the methodologies. Genuinely confused.

15.8M was just Spotify, 32m is probably from all streaming platforms

Omg the second day numbers… :rip:

i'm sorry for the people who don't get it but i love this album, the songs transport me right into a perfect breezy early summer weekend with lots of sunshine, coffee dates, long walks on poplar avenues and cool coble-stoned alleys where aperol spritz flows. i can't wait for summer 2024.

 

will do another post about the songs a bit later.

It kind of will be, in the sense that it's surely going to be sort of the last tour with some RO tracks interspersed. Probably will remove the likes of We're Good ( spare inflatable lobster going cheap anyone?), Fever ( outside of France?), and about three others, to put in the singles, whatever streams best off the other tracks and DTN (so lobster replaced by mermaid?)

Like they really should pivot completely, starr over with These Walls and say Houdini-TS-Illusion are part of one side of the album, but that the album has a different side to it that is now going to be introduced

the album making Houdini flop 

:clack:

I'm sad for her. Basically sounds like dull leftover demos from FN. Why this took so long to release is beyond me. If they wanted to follow the same sound, it should've been released while she was on tour. I'm surprised this project even got the green light for release. 

Hopefully she's hard at work on a superior DL4 for a fall release.

Just listened to this for a second time while in the shower. Amazing album, it's fully clicked for me now

 

FN has higher highs but RO is much more consistent, nothing feels filler-y and is worth pressing the skip button over (whereas FN has Good in Bed and Boys Will Be Boys)

 

I don't give a **** if the album is bombing or people aren't listening. I'm loving it and that's all that matters

Like stuff in the Middle and Far East?

 

Big old difference - like double.

 

No idea how that compares to others or FN on those platforms or even how directly comparable stuff is given different consumption patterns since 2020.  
 

I know Spotify subscribers are more which doesn't exactly improve the relative number for that platform FN v RO (!), but 32m globally sounds a bit "different".

I hope that Warner ties her up to a heater and reintroduce her to TAP, and she's not allowed to drink nor eat unless she sings whatever they serve her to the mic for that fall release

 

Either way she's going on vacanza, it's summer in the northern hemisphere :gaycat6:

Terrible, cute additions for a FN anniversary edition, but can stay 200km away from RO

 

No offense to you but even for a custom fanmade deluxe this doesn't fit well for me personally :eli:

Honestly this is such a good album. She did a great job.

 

It doesn't deserve to be a flop…

hope she will have some good streams in  the long term 🙏🏽
