Escapology

And imagine if she scrapped vinyls on the next record…girl will be doing 5k  

Why did she literally have to deactivate her fucking socials, like what is her problem

I saw a projection of 24-26k in US. 

So, what are your projections for the album sales? UK and US markets, what do you think? 

Anyways,
 

I’ve seen a couple vids of it with 200k+ likes already . If it keeps growing it’ll do wonders for this album

How dare...
People should reply with metacritic score.

the album is better sonically without Text Book and BB.
 
 

when dealer starts doing 2m streams a day and the album goes number one with 80k sales 

Oh fuck I just had a revelation
 

after y’all collectively had a 6 month long mental breakdown in the pre-release thread over vinyl colours let us post-release girlies let off some steam about sales
 

24k

what does she mean by "thanks for the shoes" in bbs? is she talking about people making fun of her wearing the same shoes all the time 

mama this is the blue banisters discussion thread and we will discuss the sales of blue banisters if we want to and you can scroll right on by 

Omg her sales predictions are atrocious I’m going to cry

I'm a witch

Aside from Drake who is at 1, Lana is set to outsell the current number 2 spot (they are at 2 with 18,000 this week). Drake and Elton seem to be her main competition, but if someone with 18,000 can be at 2, then Lana will still have a pretty decent debut

Am I the only one who still thinks Blue Banisters is such an underwhelming album title?
ARCADIA was right there, Lana.

I don’t think they care or else they would have released the vinyl at the same time. Most of the vinyl is getting released November 12th for some reason so it will count for that week. 

I don't get why pre-orders don't count unless the album ships, like if I already gave her my money it should totally count

the sales are so low i think bc of the vinyl delay. it would’ve probs been about 50k w no delays, chemtrails did 58k first week i think. so yeah it’s bad for her chart positioning and ppl r defo gonna use this to call her a flop, but also bear in mind the delays

24k isn’t even enough to typically debut in the top 10 in the US. ffs. 

Do the sales predictions count streams as well? I'm not too surprised since her physicals have been released in pretty limited stock. All her colored vinyl sold out within hours, and while many people like her music, I think the stock was just limited to begin with on that end

If she doesn’t sell her label isn’t going to invest money on her anymore. She’s always been a constant album seller but these predictions are seriously terrible. I don’t care if we never get another music video but if we don’t get vinyls ever again…. Lord help me…

68k not 18k. A debut in the top 10 is the best-case scenario at this point.
