skwonderfactory Posted August 19 Posted August 19 I went to Target about an hour ago and they had the red ruby vinyl on clearance for $8.39. Did I buy it? Perhaps I did .
Nefertiti0 Posted August 19 Posted August 19 Houdini has left UK Spotify, now she has 0 songs charting there for the first time probably since Christmas
KatyPrismSpirit Posted August 19 Posted August 19 Why is she not pushing another single? Delusion came out over 4 months ago. 1

tjspy Posted August 19 Posted August 19 I was just remembering the way I was excited for the Houdini release, I have never been so excited for any release like I was for this one. It was the dance-track promise, it was the Danny L Harle production, it was the dark and magic theme, it was the official return after FN, like, everything was so iconic. From the first snippets, to the muffled beats on WhatsApp, to the aesthetics, to the leak. And the song turned out to be absolutely amazing. I was just merely sad that they barely used any magic/Houdini themed visuals on the video, but I was still very please with a strong dance video for a song like Houdini. I'd just like to see the keys, for instance, that they were teasing as a concept 1
State of Grace. Posted August 19 Posted August 19 I read on PJ that she apparently has 22 dates planned for North America next year with NYC on Sept 17th. That's.....over a year from now. I thought she would go there during winter/spring. They have to be planning a big reissue to relaunch the era and breathe a new life into it. I would love an EP of 5-7 songs that gets tacked on the standard album. Preferably Houdini rehashes xx. 1
Ivan_brit Posted August 20 Posted August 20 rising & Chrarting 15 weeks that's something There are a lot of albums that can't even chart more than 5 weeks 2

ahauntingnearu Posted August 20 Posted August 20 As much as I really like RO tbh, if it's more outtakes of the main vibe of album (sans H and TS), I don't necessarily want it - esp since it'll do nothing for her. I really think she needs to use more H/TS esque outtakes, or outtakes from a totally different vibe pre-RO vibe. Just gotta be something that'll stick. Maybe a darker sister album ? Idk 1

Do what Katy tried to do with Lifetimes but x100 better I don't know why she hasn't worked with RAYE. 2
SweetTalker Posted August 21 Author Posted August 21 Also wtf is this so fkn good. This would sound so well live, and would work so well with the damn black outfits she keeps wearing

Smosh them together, dancing and dark magic vibes.

mickeyderon Posted August 21 Posted August 21 If she's touring next year, she surely has to be doing an expansive reissue with new songs/collaborations. In the meantime, I'm surprised we haven't had a remix album.

It was all the OG tracks and collabs that carried. Imagine if we get an awful deluxe on top for RO too. 1 2
tjspy Posted August 21 Posted August 21 Levitating is currently joining the 200+ weeks club at the Global 200 meanwhile Houdini also reached 40 weeks this week 1
Solaria Posted August 21 Posted August 21 Another day another WhatsApp message begging us to buy her summer clothes. Another day where These Wallahs gathers dust. This is the best era to be a Love by FAR

Delusion came out over 4 months ago. there are no songs left on this record to push. that is not to say there are no more good songs on the record, but the tracks are completely unmarketable in todays climate. if commercial success is important to her, which we know it is from her teams interviews with MusicWeek etc, she needs droplets
Solaria Posted August 21 Posted August 21 I'm so obsessed with these versions like.... we need a live album kinda 2
PaloSanto Posted August 21 Posted August 21 picked up my sister from college today and while Training Season was playing she said: "wait did Dua's album came out or did she drop this and Houdini and went on vacation?" when even your target audience doesnt even know your album came out is time to rethink things 2
