I never mentioned lead single.
Harry Styles - Harry’s House
- Thread starter Vasilios
- Start date
No but since this is (presumably) Harry’s lead, that would make it an apples to apples comparison. I also can’t think of many non-lead single examples off the top of my head, either.
Katy Perry?
In UK? Madonna, Mariah, Beyonce, to name a few.
he/him
I ....... don’t care

Hasn't this dropped quite significantly in the UK midweeks?
He allegedly taped something for Jools Holland so we’ll see
Did Kiwi walk, though? I thought it tripped, stumbled and fell before really doing anything.

Jools Holland? Well that definitely fits the audience that his team are trying to shoehorn him into, but I'm not sure it'll have a huge effect on his single's sales. The album might be another story though.
It’s at no 11 in the midweeks in the UK, a bit of a drop, but expected as the initial fan surge would keep it high in the first week. It probably won’t repeak but the real test will be how long it hangs around for. It’s no 13 and no 5 on UK and US Spotify, so it’s not plummeting.
I really like this, I’d much rather this do well than the likes of Ed Sheeran/Lewis Capaldi etc

Like you said considering the initial fan surge has passed this has actually stabilised quite well - I hope he continues to do well, particularly as this is so much more interesting and just generally better.
I don't think there's anything much separating this song from dozens of other songs I've heard this year, other than a Goliath-sized marketing budget. As long as he can hold onto high placements on Today's Top Hits, Hot Hits UK etc, he should be fine, but it's hard to tell if this song will maintain interest beyond that.
It was the most played song on Radio 1 last week and is getting a lot of play on UK commercial radio too, so that should help him there.
I know iTunes is a tiny sliver of the music market now, but relative to other songs on the charts, sales of this have completely dropped off, which surprises me. If sales still count for any sort of barometer of interest in a song, that might be a concern that something isn't connecting for him.

Although in an ideal world none of them would be successful!
Ι'm still absolutely loving the video. Glad he ditched the whole I'm a serious musician I play guitar now!!11 image and seems to actually be having some fun this time around.
