The album is #1 on the German iTunes Charts.

Her Singles are in the Top 100 of the iTunes Charts.

 

How is it doing in other countries? And how can we see the streaming counts?

We'll know on Monday, but not too promising. #1 in UK will be hard with how much Taylor is doing, but shouldn't be impossible.

Billboard is dumb as hell for ranking Falling Forever as the worst song on the album :biblio:

I have decided Maria should be the next single. It has what it takes to be a forgettable Europe-only summer hit. Her "Te Amo"

Billboard has s***  for hearing as usual. Anything For Love was like #8 or something on their ranking which was three spots too high.

Tea is Failing Forever is the worst track by far and Anything For Ian is the best one despite being unfinished

I fear Happy For You does absolutely nothing for me, someone said it's 'girl who is going to be alright' coded and that's exactly what it is :deadbanana:

 

It sounds like a bland soundtrack song to me

same.. I'm seeing all those "her best song ever, career highlight!" for HFY and I'm like.. what are they hearing? maybe it got to grow on me idk

that woman hasn't given her fans a tour in a decade because she cannot sustain a live singing voice and acts like it's a more personal reason

No tea as much as we've collectively clowned on her numbers i don't think Dua is gonna suffer much in the long haul. Her next tour will sell regardless. She's a good performer and has soooo many massive hits to her name that the ticket is worth it off that alone. 

Some like to compare this to Artpop or Witness, but Gaga and Katy ruined their public image and that's why their respective tours underperformed too. Dua isn't in that situation. The music underperformed but yes, people would still go to her concerts since she hasn't lost that 'cool' factor

I think it's also because people don't see Dua as much of a cultural figure outside of a rich woman on Instagram unlike celebs like Gaga and Katy were lol

Smashing Forever is an absolute bop, you can all choke! It's giving Highway Unicorn, galloping horsey girl realness and I'm all the way here for it.

Guys this is a grower :WAP:

 

Listening to this after having eaten an edible, THE DETAILS AND ORNAMENTATION IN THE BACKGROUND!!! :jonny4:
 

B*TCHHHHHH :jonny3: The vocal layering she does on this record 

 

Shoutout to the producers as well :clap3: They f*cking ATE :katie2:

My thoughts exactly! After smoking a bit last night I heard EVERY SINGLE DETAIL. The production is insane and saved the album for me.

Yeah this is the main reason why I don't understand those comparisons. Katy and GaGa made lots of mistakes and damaged their brands and reputation before and during those eras, which affected the reception of their music.

 

Dua is still liked. The music/videos/looks just aren't what people wanted/expected from her. She can easily recover as long as she doesn't make any other dumb mistakes, like waiting too long or something.

she could release extra tracks to help her streaming. 20.5 millio and 60 million to 70 million for the week is ok as she doesnt have a smash on the album. The singles release was messy as f**k. Hope she can atleast go platinum in the US with the album. Thank god she is performing on tv.

Hope she works with the flowers producers,max martin,ali payami and new but hitmaking producers. Tame impala sound is unique to him, it doesnt work for Dua. Whoever gave the greenlight to release these misfires should be fired. Im looking at u daddy lipa. The label also should be held accountable.

someone posted they are working on live stream of Dua show in Times Square tonight

it will probably last about 15-20 minutes like Post Malone or Shakira's concert in Times Square with some old and new songs

She should've gone full Tame Impala, this chill loungy aesthetic does the songs no favors, they all sound half baked.
