Rina Sawayama - Hold the Girl

just ordered the red vinyl so she'll prob be #1 in the Netherlands too.
 
1 BLACKPINK - BORN PINK (16,554) *
2 Rina Sawayama - Hold the Girl (11,275) *
3 Suede - Autofiction (11,197) *
4 Marcus Mumford - (self-titled) (9,582) *
5 Pink Floyd - Animals (6,326) ^

her lead today has closed from 112 to 78 copies. it could be tight! looking at ~13k on Friday.
 
You would have thought that her lead would increase over the week based on better streaming numbers than Suede.
 
Ends up at #3 with 13,961 sales, 77 behind Suede.

7,148 of those sales on vinyl, where it is #1.

Only #42 on streaming, which I find surprising - and probably not a great indicator in terms of being likely to fall hard next week.
 
I'm happy enough with Number 3 - a shame it was so close but whatever. Yeah she'll massively fall next week, but at least she's now got SOME chart success behind her, however fleeting!

Suede's cheap download with bonus tracks did the job for them then. Quite surprised by her streaming as well. Dirty Hit seem to specialise in artists who can go top 5 in week one then vanish (assuming this is what happens, of course...).
 
Down to #60 in the midweeks. Suede #27, Blackpink #45.

Looks like my chart tenacity comparison to Jessie Ware wasn't far off the mark.
 
I thought she was much bigger than that.
 
How have I only just discovered this queen? Hold the Girl is the BEES TITS.

What else do I need to know?
This Hell
Comme des Garcons

Start there and go see what else pops up :D

That "iiii" at 3:48 in Hold The Girl is the best Rina second for me, though I think Bad Friend is her best song.

I also love This Hell! :angry:
 
This Hell is a fantastique bop of course as well, but not a masterpiece like Hold The Girl.

Can we please just send her to Eurovision already ugh queen.
 
I see she's not a huge chart force. Still we love our WHAT IS THE CHARTS PLEASE queens.
 
I prefer This Hell to Hold The Girl personally. But they are both FUCKING STONKING.
 
I love Dynasty too if we're still looking for recommendations.

Cannot WAIT to see her in 3 weeks time!!! :D
 
this album is such a delightful breeze. it feels like it's over in a flesh. after the darker midsection, Hurricanes is such a massive breath of fresh air. what a song :disco:

Funnily enough, THIS is my least favourite song on the album... :D But each to their own.
