Zara Larsson- Crush + Midnight Sun (Sept 26)

Randomly, Pretty Ugly got 180k streams yesterday, after trending up a few days. Normally at this time of the week it gets around 80-90k. Wonder if it is gaining some form of traction?

It was used as a lip sync in last week's episode of RuPaul's Drag Race so that could be why.
 
I’m not gonna lie, it’s probably my favourite on the album now :D

Surely Gen Z need their own Hollaback Girl :disco:
 
The way the charts are these days I genuinely won't be surprised if it hits #1 in July.
 
Finishes #3, #9 and #22 this week :disco: Sales for the title track up again, so that should see it with at least another three weeks around the top twenty area.

Also enters the top 40 in Australia and NZ this week. This must be her biggest solo hit since Ruin My Life now.
 
On My Love with Guetta was a bigger hit in UK I think. She also did quite well with Can't Tame Her, which certainly felt like it was in the charts for a while.

I like Midnight Sun and the above mentioned two but I still think she has far superior pop songs in her back cat which I wish had been hits more so than these. For me she could pull together quite the greatest hits selection (except most weren't actual hits).
 
I'm pleased for her. I thought she was going down the toilet the way Pixie Lott went. I don't know much about her but i did listen to a podcast where she comes across as passionate and astute.

Both of those were certainly UK hits. I think they both did around 3-4 months in the top forty which is really rather good despite not huge peaks. But neither seemed to do much outside of the UK and Sweden, so it’s good to see this one actually on the Billboard Hot 100 and charting right across Europe/Northern America/Australasia.

I do like Midnight Sun but I agree she has far better.
 
Stateside now #2 on US Spotify thanks to it being used at the Olympics. #6 on UK as well. So it’s shaping up to get some nice peaks this week. She’s credited officially in about half the charts and not the other, but the US she is and it looks like that’ll be hopefully a top 20 for them this week :disco:
 
Stateside is blowing up on Spotify

Global: #3 (+5) [New Peak], 4,946,464 (+763,233) (+18.25%)

United States: #1 (+1) [New Peak], 1,576,422 (+252,965) (+19.11%)

United Kingdom: #4 (+2) [New Peak], 399,077 (+51,177) (+14.71%)
 
Midnight Sun now silver in the UK. Must’ve sold a solid amount prior to charting (seems to be on about 110-130k since then).
 
New peaks for Midnight Sun on Spotify in the UK (#38) and US today (#89).

Stateside still doing marvellously, and Lush Life holding on. Gonna be a big chart week I’d say this week for her.
 
Returns to #20 in the UK for its tenth week in the top 40.

Also new peaks in Australia, US, Canada and Ireland this week. Maybe it will keep rising until the actual midnight sun in June :D
 
Yeah after posting I realized how much text they included. Damn Germans.
 
that magazine shoot being borderline blackfish is crazy.
 
Midnight Sun up to #12 this week in the UK on its thirteenth week in the top 40. Really has become quite the hit. It’ll need a solid boost to make the top ten, though it did get new peaks on Spotify the past few days so you never know.

Lush Life still #4(!) and nowhere near ACR so will be around a bit yet :D
 
It's soooo wonderful to see her regaining success. She deserves it. Not only is she a fab performer, but she's whip-smart and a decent soul too! An all-round gorge human!
 
Oh I actually enjoy the album! Yes there are highlights and a couple of ropey songs, but it's all so breezy and likeable.
