Heat Waves? That song felt like 2022 as whole

This album is such a pleasant listen. I have both Plastic Hearts and ESV CD's on my car and lately I've been coming back to them - and hear me out, this is coming for a synthpop **** - I do find myself prefering the company of ESV. Its atmosphere is just something else. A shame it didn't pull numbers.

Queen Dua really seems to love having a smash split across multiple versions

The way this feels so major - it totally deserves smashing out of the gate, but I hope it performs well at least. It's been a long time since a strong pop debut like this. Song-wise - the way it starts really grabs me but I'm not a fan of the first pre-chorus/chorus. But then, oh good lord, the way the perfection of the second verse hooks me 'till the rest of the song is fantastic. This is a classic.

There's no such thing as more important If you don't have one of them, you won't have a good relationship

I also agree that Sales shouldn't count that much (even tho more than a stream, but a lower ratio that reflects better how many times someone will actually play the physical format). It's a comsumption chart, not a profit chart. And its not becaus the sales are less counted for BB that they stop giving the money to the artist. You should buy something because you want it physically or because you want to give money to the artist, not to fake charts - and by cutting them out of the charts you are not affecting the first two reasons.

The song is hitting 3M combined And Radical Optimism is matching her fisrt 2 eras in daily streams:

I see the #200 with as many streams as ever. They are just more fractured across songs and #1s are less strong, that's all. The industry is nowhere near dying, is just changing.

Single Ladies is a classic, despite being annoying. 3 is just nothing. One of the percursors of hyperpop in mainstream, if anything.

As a Dua stan, Physical, even tho I had to think very well between that and Into You

Alexa, play Gaby Barrett - I Hope "Cheating kink" follows the same mind thought as "killers have a mental ilness". You having a excuse for your acts does't validate your acts in anyway. You have a cheating kink, you go fix the damn thing to a psychologist. That is a mental issue that can harm others, don't try to disguise it as whatever you're trying to do.

But you can get more diseases and with higher likelihood on penetrative sex. Besides, that doesn't excuse you to do both. Prep only protects you from some things, not most, like a con.

I'm Choosin' Texas, I can't tell. Bye Boston.

If the money from this song is all donated, what different does it make to be relesead in a day or another? Charts dates don't matter.

Ooh! Get in for a good ride, dear ATRLers

I'm good, yeah, I'm feeling alright

The lead was straight up bad, even tho the rest of the music was pretty good. But it was a pop shock regardless. Probably the last one I remember. After that we only really had TUN, DL and Flowers making waves culturally in a sense that everyone cared about the background tea or was shocked (in those cases just cared, nothing about it was shocking like LWYMMD or Work).

This didn't reset nothing in the culture. It was a smash hit that came, stayed and then went, without changing a thing in the game. Good 4 u is was closer to a cultural reset, given the -short lived- revival of emo/punk. And I usually say (and hear) that an MPG needs her Flowers

I wasn't aware of this tool tjspy is the electronic/dance-pop guy who knows way too much about pop careers, has strong opinions about the relative merits of pop girls, will happily turn a discography rate into a personal crisis, and then make a completely absurd joke about it five seconds later. He gives off "analytical stan disguised as a shitposter" more than "shitposter who occasionally discusses music."

Me neither, and thanks for wording it better. It's not beggars, it's literally minorities that are literally asking for tolerance, that's the whole point.

Since 2017/18 I've always looked at woke and thought that we might've been pushing things too far the way the way wanted considering we are "just" minorities, and eventually it would fire back. Woke people said "no, that'll never happen, we need to keep pushing even more" It backfired. I hope someday and somehow we get the gp's goodwill back and that this time we don't exploit it and learn how use it wisely.

To me they taste the same.

It wouldn't. YouTube streams are negligible in general because video-streaming counts way less. If you recalculated all chart it'll put Dai Dai 2/3 spots above tops.
