United Kingdom 2023: Mae Muller - I Wrote a Song

[Apo-KANT!]

Queen Mae has spoken

And this is why I will root for her even if the songs aren't my cup. She always has our backs and firmly so.

 

[lolly]

Seeing Beverley Knight fall from #10 to #39 in the final chart may give some indication of where Mae would have ended up without that discounting and social media blitz.

 

[Una Kratz Per San Marino]

The charts are garbage and I have no problem with any of our faves leaning into gerrymandering - if you’re not a fave of the biggest streaming playlists then you’re already facing an uphill struggle.

 

[Una Kratz Per San Marino]

Although...



I'm assuming that figure of 487m includes the 440m that Better Days alone has accrued over the last two years, the 20m or so apiece that I Wrote A Song and Feels This Good have, add another 1.5m for Me, Myself and I, and that leaves 5.5m for all the remaining tracks.

For an album that lacked a hit single, the Ava album looks to be one of the genuine successes on there.

 

[Devil]

Oh marvellous, glad she got top 40. Over 3k is pretty decent as well, as nearly all will be actual sales, not streams.

I mean I Wrote A Song became a decent hit for her

 

[jaybee]

Mae is only the fourth contestant to represent the United Kingdom at Eurovision in the 21st century, to achieve a UK Top 40 album following the competition

I think he means Ava Max, not R Mae.

 

[Una Kratz Per San Marino]

I think he means Ava Max, not R Mae.

Indeed I did

Dancing's Done was #1 in Sweden and the UK until Loreen's Tattoo got released?

“It's been a busy year for Mae Muller - Eurovision, a Top 40 album and she's also one of the cast in a new film, an action thriller called 'Gassed Up' directed by BAFTA nominated George Amponash.”

This sounds like absolute trash but get money, Mae

 

[jaybee]

This sounds like absolute trash but get money, Mae

could be good for all we know.

 

[Una Kratz Per San Marino]

Is Mae going to win an Oscar?

 

[Soldi Elektronike]

Can’t wait for her to demolish the BRIT Awards

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

Is Mae going to win an Oscar?

Aren’t you getting ahead of yourself? Let’s see how it fairs at CANNES first!

 

[MegaDolly]

Is Mae going to win an Oscar?

I saw Ed Sheeran is in a film too! He and Mae will be fighting over it

 

[jaybee]

She’s been signed to Capitol for quite a few years now

 

[dUbrodošli]

Not entirely sure what she’s saying here (it SCREAMED ‘parted ways with the label’ initially but doesn’t say that outright)

Anyway best of luck to her and hope she wins CBB

 

[Halli]

I am still playing Nervous on a regular basis.

 

[C’est la VoR]

"The pressure of chasing hits...caused me to make decisions which didn't sit well in my gut personally or creatively"

 

[Devil]

This slaps

 

[FetchFugly]

It is rather good.

The artwork though... Poor Mae, a faceless feature already.

 

[Halli]

Is that a new SINGAL?

*Still listening to Nervous on loop 24/7*

 

[Logic?]

Officially left her label/management. Maybe she’ll do a Raye.

 

[KNT]

Should Olly Alexander's label save us all some time and drop him now?

 

[Ich Carniva-la-la-la]

Should Olly Alexander's label save us all some time and drop him now?

Yes, please.

 

[Ill Advised]

 

[TiShh]

Sticking by my poll choice btw. In the best company with @ButterTart and @Martha Skidd

R Mae has re-emerged in what could loosely be described as a duet with the vocal talent that is Gerard Butler:



She seems to be a voice actor in this cartoon, so good that she is working.

 

[KNT]

Oh.

 

[La Peneloupée monte le son]

Oh the acting thing WASN'T an obvious lie to cover up getting dropped?

 

[Halli]

I thought she'd QUIT MUZIC

 

[C’est la VoR]

I thought she'd QUIT MUZIC

I think it was more a case of music quitting her.
