Radical Optimism leaves UK album chart

Recommended Posts

After just 17 weeks of charting RO leaves the album chart in her homeland and  her most important market.

 

It should be studied how she managed to go from the biggest female album of the decade to one of the biggest follow up bombs ever.

idk why some of you act surprised, radical floptimism has some of her best songs ever (particularly goddini) 

but she never had the talent or fanbase to keep smashing every single time, the bubble was gonna burst at some point

even saying that RO wasn't the biggest bomb ever

don't count her out, if she runs back to TAP, she can make a stellar comeback.

It's difficult to sell out stadiums or arenas for that matter, not everyone has that

Future Nostalgia is bigger than literally anything Miley has ever done, and ESV was a huge bomb, spending less time on the UK chart than Radical Optimism. Your fave even ran to her for a collab back in 2020 :rofl:

Not RO outcharting ESV (with the biggest hit of the decade). Miley, the flop that you are :suburban:

I don't think the problem is management, it's A&R. "Training Season" and "Illusion" just weren't punchy enough. The former in particular, it's a creative metaphor but a bit harder to wrap your head around than her other hits. And "Illusion" feels redundant after another magic themed single ("Houdini").

 

I think the US is in a midtempo phase right now and these were all aggressive dance hits. "These Walls" would've probably done better as a single.

I mean 17 weeks in the top 100 is better than 15 in the top 200

We're still in time to get back to FN and release Cool to stay relevant, miss Dula!

 

Jokes apart, I think she still have the power to come back as strong as during FN - perhaps even more. I'm pretty sure she can grow even Bigger than that if she plays it well, tbh. And I just know she's cooking something up already.

True and at least it went Gold, so we'll take it :suburban:

She better go back to TAP next era though, no more Dukajin making FLOP decisions and ruining her career :clack:

She can recover with her next album, it was just a matter of these singles not connecting enough. Her image is basically unchanged, it's not like she went through a bad scandal and people hate her or forgot about her. "Dance the Night" was only a year ago.

Exactly, she can easily sweep this era under the rug and pretend it never happened :coffee2:

 

I guess that's one of the Pro's of having a bomb era, most people (GP) probably won't even realize it happened in the first place and when she comes back she can come back Swinging with a Quality lead single that will connect to audiences. Unfortunately the singles run of RO just didn't have that connecting power, but hey not every album is gonna be a smash :emofish:
