[Dear Reader]

Only my two favorite albums released this year 

[Badgalbriel]

Yep, the two best albums of the year

[MardinBeksloy]

And she's about to perform her 7 sold out stadium shows there this month. She might snatch the year best selling

The way Billie has demolished HTE  So glad her Sophomore Slump era is dead and gone and people are back to realizing she's queen of Gen Z  

 

Does help that HMHAS is a skipless album

I really hate that HTE is "known" as a sophomore slump cause it's such an amazing album, a masterpiece.

HIt me hard and soft, a 10 track album did that

Imo it was 4-5 songs too long. I think it would have fared much better if it was:

 

1. Getting Older

2. I didn't change my number

3. Billie Bossa Nova

4. Oxytocin

5. Goldwing

6. Hailey's Comet

7. NDA

8. Therefore I Am

9. Male Fantasy

10. Happier Than Ever

 

 

IMO it had too many skips people didn't really enjoy the project as a whole. I agree it still has some amazing tracks and career highlights though

She's a local to the #1 spot on global charts 

[UnusualBoy]

Talent won  

 

And Taylor hasn't touched Germany there with the tour so the #1 is basically on lock. Not sure but I think the last time an international act was #1 in the albums yec was Adele with 21, Divide & 25 were #2 the year they were released so this is quite impressive

Mess, I did (Honestly the album came and went so don't hold it against me lol) but yeah they got the #1, still impressive since in the last 10 years only 1 international acts has got it.

[Arthoe]

Taylor is #1 with 11 tracking weeks

Billie is #2 with 7 tracking weeks

 

K.I.Z. is #7 with only TWO TRACKING WEEKS  

 

 

[Heldenzeit]

Both far from the best but our country's gp's taste has been OFF since forever. 

 

Congrats tho, girlies!

I mean, they are German act after all and the one present from the beginning of the century on the scene at that, especially being relevant during last 10 years basically, so it would be only logical.

I'm lowkey a stan of them, and they have NEVER sold that well or had any actual Top 20 hits, their last album was their first one to ever chart on a year end chart after more than 15 years in the business. I have no idea what happened all of a sudden

Yeah, but this is their third album in a row to score big when we look from the start. 
All years in business/music have been paying off for them there.

Wasn't TTPD top 7 after its first 2 weeks? It debuted with high numbers

What's your take on Brat and Eternal Sunshine?

Brat is cool. Not my thing, but I can see that it's a good album. ES is plain generic. 

[getinthezone]

streaming ruined charting

Ja ja Billie ist ein global ikon
