selena_lavigne Posted May 13 Posted May 13 i'm confused, how does a Dua Lipa album with a 6 month pre-album rollout only have 700M streams?

Did the global population stream the songs once cuz they popped up on their playlist and never again? Edited May 13 by selena_lavigne
selena_lavigne Posted May 13 Posted May 13 I would expect Houdini 700 Million, Training Season 400 Million, Illusion 150 Million. Plus streaming the new tracks. The album is half as successful as it feels like in my bedroom. 1
The Man Who Posted May 13 Posted May 13 My vinyl arrived last week and it's been on repeat pretty much nonstop. These Walls, Falling Forever and Happy For You are still my top 3. 1 2

With this album I wake up with a different song in my mind every day. 2 days ago it was Maria, yesterday it was These Walls, today is French Exit. That's what I'm saying. Like okay maybe the album isn't packed with instant classics, but it has a solid amount of songs to where I'm wanting to listen to another one every day because it's stuck in my head. I didn't have that with FN personally, so I just find RO more enjoyable overall. 1 2
makeawish Posted May 14 Posted May 14 radio 1 mocked up a version of illusion where they loop the end so she keeps doing the "ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh" bit for ages to trick the DJs and it bangs, needs a proper release tbh

Mastamaind Posted May 14 Posted May 14 Can we talk about the bridge of 'Houdini'?! Dua and Kevin Parker are geniuses for that. Like she delivered on the psychedelic aspect of the album tbh 5

Club classic Posted May 14 Posted May 14 My vinyl arrived today I ordered the deluxe gatefold and the alternate cover. The former is soooooo good! The printed sleeve, the gatefold, the mini booklet and the record itself are so carefully done! It also captures the album's vibe so well. Radical Optimism they can never make me hate you 1

Radical Optimism they can never make me hate you I initially ordered the deluxe but when they released the alternative I canceled it and got the curacao from retailer and alternative from the store and it was cheaper than getting just the "deluxe" one. Its nice we have two separate esthetics like this. They look good together. The alternative would look cool if the half was red. I still wish we would got full photobook.
