First week sales for Confessions II

[Jark]

PREDICT the UK and stateside numbers.

 

[POP!]

With the variants I’m hoping 100k+ in the US, don’t know how to gauge the UK really but 40k+?

With the variants I’m hoping 100k+ in the US, don’t know how to gauge the UK really but 40k+?

for context, Kylie's last several including Disco and Tension opened in the 50-59k range. This Music May Contain Hope by RAYE opened to 47k, and Olivia just opened to 103k.

I think she can clear 50k.

Madame X sold 95k in the US and a rather paltry 20k UK in week one.

I think she will sell 120k in the US with this with the potential for more.

 

[Sheena]

The ridiculous overvarianting will see it go 60k+, surely?

Week two is what’s going to be interesting

That's about what I think too. I really hope she can cross 100k in the US.

 

[Suedehead]

I predict about 50K for the UK
I reckon they’ve looked at US pre order figures and are hoping for a final push towards 100K hence the additional US variants.

Not sure if it will hurt its overall streaming position but it's 4th of july independence day in the States so a bunch of country crud/throwbacks taking over the US Spotify chart today and tomorrow. And most stores closed today (stocking problems, etc.)

 

[Jark]

if this doesn't sell a million copies first week due to Republicans playing Taylor Swift at their gun parties and going viral crashing their gauche parachutes I think we will have to annex your country into Greenland.

USA. I don't FUCK with it!!!

It did 29,992 pure sales in the UK on day one. Apparently this doesn’t necessarily include all pre orders.

I’m assuming this is pretty good sign for a 60k final count for the week, with all the pre orders, streaming and physicals for the remainder of the week.
