Does anybody actually believe this was her year? Sabrina outsold & had 3 smashes. BOAF was the only track that had real longevity & impact. If not SC, Billie's playing arenas while Taylor's dominating stadiums. If they wanted to go for someone who was a culture force > a commercial success, this was Charli's breakout year. Nobody's gonna look back in 10 years & say ah, yes, 2024, the year of Billie Eilish

If sabrina would deserve that was only way for her to get it during Singular act i and act ii eras sis also taylor and charli screams mediocre as hell

Billie's worldwide tour will outsold Sabrina's Tour by miles

 

HMHAS is still doing bigger numbers than Sabrina's album on Apple Music, more #1's and much more stabilitly Globally. 

 

Billie has currently 2 smashes and outstreaming Sabrina's biggest songs on Spotify currently and both almost 7 months old.

Taylor ? besides her worldwide tour, she has NOTHING this year, no acclaim, no hits, nothing.

Not the 2nd biggest year in modern music history (after 2023) being "nothing". Eilish fans are so funny. 

 

OT:

[Squall]

Does it mean most streamed?

[Green]

Deserved. Her songs also had crazy longevity on Apple Music this year

TTPD is the biggest album of the year in both sales and streams, which also happens to be nominated for an AOTY Grammy.  Following your reasoning, Billie only has a hit song to her name this year.

I didn't say the Apple staff should've named her again.

[Squall]

Ok now it doesn't mean most streamed:

 

 

 

It's not chart achievement then

The fumes and weird energy all over this thread. Billie's success really bothers y'all that much? 

 

OT: Congrats to a young legend

[Green]

Why can't that stanbase leave us to celebrate Billie's awards without getting pressed?

Well, both SnS and HMHAS will both surpass TTPD next year on Spotify. 

Billie has 2 Global hits to her name at least, with one of the biggest acclaimed album and a huge tour projected to gross over 200M with 83 arena dates only.

They didn't said it's the most streamed album but also didn't denied it. It just mean that they gave it to her not because of success but also cultural space.

I think the most compelling aspect of Billie's year was, of course, the quality of the music. She's had a blockbuster year in terms of success, which I'm sure factors into their decision, but HMHAS was an incredible record, with a core composed of some all-time great music. Chihiro in particular is such a compelling piece, and one I hope she builds on, but we can't leave out excellent cuts like BOAF (rightfully a hit) and L'amour.

And TTPD will be diamond next year while SnS & HMHAS will not even be halfway there so… And let's not even talk about pure sales, the ones that matter, not streams, which pay the artists cents = almost nothing…
