Just a note- only audio views count toward the multi-metric albums chart. But perhaps the video could add a few extra late-week album sales.
Hoping the video's as epic as it seems it's going to be.
-
I emailed a Billboard staffer about the photo- perhaps they listened.
Though the HC-era photo remains on the Artist 100 chart.
-
The first teases that showed dancing in the club looked like it featured queens. This would be the video to include then, no doubt, given the "controversial" description of the video featuring drag queens.Ā
-
^They're in this video. Looks like even in the latest teaser.
-
No. 1 on the Artist 100? Didn't expect that one. She had charted at No. 7 upon the release of Rebel Heart.
I updated some other MX chart rankings in the U.S. thread in the chart forum.
-
Considering her history, outside of ROL, I'd be surprised if MX received any major nods.
requiem- Alecia Moore hart does great box office numbers, so more than just the Aussies care.Ā I like her, though have never seen her live and feel her music's gotten too samey.
In any event, MX is No. 1 on the albums charts this week, so yay.
-
Yes- and this latest teaser tags Jonas A, too.
-
I don't get the level of appeal of Ariana Grande and some others with biog success, though she has enjoyed huge streaming numbers.
Shammys nod for what, Shaun?
-
Adult outlets are playing "Crave," but I agree that any "backlash" won't do too much harm. She's not in her commercial heyday any longer.
What would be nice is if the video ends with the general message M wants to convey (not just "guns should be illegal"), whether with text or something else.

The 80% drop for RH was the pure-sales drop. RH's first week only included redemptions from a few dates (as not all dates were on sale up through the album release), and it was digital-only (Billboard estimated just 10,000 or so came from the promotion). So, I would expect at least an 80% drop for the new album; look at Jonas' album, dropping some 95% or so in sales. The overall drop was 87%, thanks to decent streaming numbers.
In any event, this is a GC thread.Ā We'll see when M will bestow the clip to the world.
-
A steep drop is coming, no matter what happens- recall the multipe U.S. Ellen shows came in week 2 of RH, and the drop was still 80%.
Nonetheless, can't wait for the video.
-
^The standard was on iTunes- it was ranked in the top 10 initially, and then swiftly made its way don the charts. It's not there any longer?
Still can't get over how the standard edition of RH lacked the title track.
-
^Fourth-largest sales week for a female this year (excluding A Star is Born, which is also credited to Bradley Cooper). Ones with higher sums:
* Billie Ellish: 170,000
* Ariana Grande: 116,000
* Pink: 95,000
-
Most importantly, in terms of this chart, enjoy this moment, in 2019, and, please- no dramatics for next week's chart and the inevitable big drop. Thanks.
-
90,000 is the sales unit; we don't know the breakdown of physical and digital. It will be No. 1 on Top Album Sales and Internet Albums, most likely. Possibly Digital Albums. Not sure about Vinyl Albums. RH peaked at 2 on the latter.
-
Madonna's performer status won't be tainted by one event/performance, no matter how many people watched it. Nobody, even the best of them, hits it out of the park every time. Given her track record, I'm confident she will continue to show why she is the Queen with the new tour.
And, yes, her reaction was classic M. Was that Liz. R in the background or another assistant/publicist?
-
Thank you for posting/sharing. Good read.
-
Lawdy at Cubby saying "Crave" was the dance No. 1.
-
Wasn't this taped yesterday? Thus we should know for sure if she performs at all, yes?
-
^I most certainly hope you wouldn't do that over a music-chart placement, or anything else.
-
"Medellin" peaked at No. 20 on UK Airplay; weekly spins peak was just 335, though, when it was ranked No. 43 in airplay.
-
Isn't there also a solo shot of someone in the shadows before the couple?
-
Yes, IR really does work well as the closer of the standard/15-track editions. And the video is effective.
-
What televisedĀ RH performance aired during release week in the USA? (not recalling) The Ellen show was the week after.
ashtangi74- a hit? At age 60? The adult-oriented charts is where she will score them, if at all- and she's doing so, with "Crave."
I wouldn't be surprised if the overly-but-unsurprisingly-dramatic reaction to Eurovision put her off to live performances for the time being.
