charts discussion HDD: SOS 170k

[dangerousbutera]

I don't think we'll see a TD this decade to the same magnitude that TD was in terms of hit singles, but the closest must be:

 

Future Nostalgia

SOUR

Planet Her

Short n' Sweet

SOS

 

I feel like in terms of aesthetics and the pop bombasticity of it all, FN, PH & SNS feel the closest.

There are 15 new tracks. It should be counted as a whole new album.

 

Why does she make it a reissue anyway, instead of a new era?

I have the same exact question. What exactly is a "reissue" even?

People talk about Short N Sweet being the Teenage Dream of the 2020s but SOS is literally right there

How so? SOS' only smash is kill bill

[STMG23]

SZA deserves every ounce of success. Her music is sublime

 

I also don't get the reissue though. Or, maybe I just don't get the digital rollout. iTunes (yes, I am old and stubborn) served me LANA in the entrity when I already owned SOW. Why not just add the songs or make it a seperate album? Confusing to me.

 

But after my old ass managed to just buy the Lana tracks, I have been bopping and swaying the whole day

Congrats to SZA

 

Taylor's hold

[Feanor]

Solana, Taylor.

 

Also wow at Bing Crosby, he came very close to surpassing Bublé.

Local hit i fear

[Ger]

Christmas super strong this year, which wa expected, but damn almost 100k for Michael is crazy, and very shocked with Mr. Crosby

[fridayteenage]

it's interesting that of the 10 biggest Christmas albums this week, 9 were recorded last century, but the exception is the biggest one.

IFPI says otherwise.

SZA's numbers are good if you frame it as a deluxe, I was expecting a bit more tho.

 

where's Billie? i was told that she's outstreaming Taylor who is #5

I don't use that site but based on what was posted it appears to include US numbers...

 

like how morgan's last night is top 10 on billboard's year end global chart for 2023, but that's mostly from the US. (it was 160 international)

Is #17 a high number for you? And still, most of its units are prob from the US

Well if you look at the chart Billie is outstreaming her right now based on the SEA numbers posted. Taylor is #5 because of her pure sales
