Scars

Not true!

I wouldn't say that, Miley was very unlucky with Party in the USA peaking at #2 and it's EP also peaking at #2 despite selling +100K for many weeks. People here forget that RCA struggled to get physicals of PH out during its debut week, this 60k number was never truly representative of its popularity so it's good that the chart position balances that out a bit.

The Time Of Our Lives (that one EP with Party in the USA) spent months doing +100k while charting at #2 and #3 and it actually charted at #7 during it's highest-selling week (150k). Justice for that one too.

Miley is such a wildcard, oh my god. Nothing screams more Miley than missing the top with genuine successes like Plastic Hearts and ESV, which even had a good debut, only to end up getting her first #1 this decade with this one.

If her team is smart enough (we know they aren't but a gay can only hope), a few TikTok videos from the Hollywood Bowl dates making the rounds are all it takes for the album to re-chart in the lower half of the Billboard 200 again next month and make the final chart run look less bad. I'll wait until tomorrow to say my congrats though, I don't want to jinx it.

No one can deny how much effort our girl has put into getting her career to where it is today.

No, EOTW debuted at #33 globally and #26 in the US.

Good that it debuted with the same numbers as EOTW, considering Spotify numbers are much lower overall now and honestly, EOTW sounded much more like a hit than BP.

They're using new criteria to calculate streams and heavily filtering them now, so the era of mass streaming (and streaming farms) is over.

Waiting for Different Religion to come out.

It's actually the Andrew Watt production, things didn't end up well between them.

Anyway I'm probably alone on this but I'm actually more excited to hear Different Religion than Bass Persuades. The teaser, the sound and the description from insiders got me obsessed with it. Ughhh

I have my own list of criticisms towards Miley as a stan, but people really do the most when it comes to her albums. Let's put into perspective that in the last seven years all of Miley releases had songs that were either career highlights or were among the best pop songs released that year. Slide Away, Midnight Sky and Walk of Fame to name a few. Her material is actually much stronger now than the first half of her career and that is something that most artists can't relate, especially when you're doing it for nearly 20 years. Most pop girls become a caricture of their prime years by that point but Miley refuses to be reduced to that despite internet gays screaming for a "Bangerz 2.0 era" whenever they can. Those things alone put her in a much better place than some of the so-called MPGs with "great discographies" that are burned out and have nothing truly exciting to put out anymore.

Love that PH is always the one getting the biggest boost whenever there is a new release, this cult classic!

It wasn't made by a stan. This isn't even the only one, there are so many of these on YouTube with millions of views. people really love to capitalize on death and mourning, it's disgusting.

Midnight Sky We Can't Stop See You Again Mother's Daughter Malibu Flowers Can't Be Tamed Party in the USA 7 Things Doo It! End of The World Love that she has never missed when it comes to lead singles, it is always the most suitable option even when the song isn't really a fan favorite.

The dramatics over a title, please. Can you annoying gays wait until you've heard the song at least?

That would be perfect, but we all know Miley love to turn down great opportunities. Reminder that she only agreed to perform Flowers at the Grammys on the condition that she could back out at any moment, which is why they decided not to announce her until the very last minute. But, who knows, maybe she'll be more willing to play the game now that she's at a new label this time. These two concert dates for the BP release felt like something that would never happen just one year ago

But we love that, unlike most artists, not all of her hits come from the first few years of her career, they're spread out. A legend who never gets boring because you never know what to expect

Don't think so, she'll do 2 dates at Hollywood Bowl already, which is better than Backyard Sessions tbh.

This post made me curious to why you had to randomly bring up Smile for this comparison and I am genuinely shocked to find out that 143 managed to be a even bigger flop than Something Beautiful. How is that even possible? Didn't this album have a 100-date world tour? omg We all love Miley's commitment to her music regardless of the numbers, and the goodwill she's built with the public is what has made this possible. A Cher-like kind of icon.

Not this having more likes than the original tweet, please

I feel like more people would've named Christina as their favorite singer if you asked them back in 2003 than the amount of people who would've named Dua in any year this decade, but even without a huge fanbase, Dua's music has still been far more successful and relevant than Christina's and that's what really matters.

I don't think anyone hears the name Miley and thinks of anyone other than her so if it happens, I don't see dropping Cyrus being that big of a deal really.
