Ocean is not streaming friendly at all. Too many long songs. Still waiting for Spotify to change how they count plays because right now it’s ruining the industry by encouraging shorter and shorter songs. YouTube does it very well with watch times and pay creators based on engagement. That alone curbs clickbait short videos and encourage more meaningful content. Spotify has no system like that. The pay rate is flat based on play counts disregarding length.

I 100% agree, Fingertips, Candy Necklace Kintsugi and Taco truck would be doing ~100k extra streams per day if they were 4 minutes or shorter and that’s why I think A&W (7 minute song) is a bigger hit than doin time (4 minute song)

Sad because she would’ve been #1 any other week before March. Her label is trash at picking release dates. Tbh they’re trash at most things. How do you sell over 100K and still not be #1. The album should have come out the week Karol G releases her album. Easy #1 or any other week before that. Now she has to settle for #3 because of a 36 song album and a 0.69 cents songs EP with 10 versions and 12345 remixes .

Fingertips helped me calm down with panic attack…and then it made me cry. Probably my favorite song off the album

i mean definitely agree but i also feel like the delay was probably due to physical copies not all being ready so if it was released weeks earlier it probably wouldn't have sold this much anyways

I mean it would still be #1. Sales were LOW all year around. Also they could’ve delayed it further if the physicals weren’t ready. They are still having inventory problems gimping her first week sales:

Because it’s not a Marina Teen Idle reference. She just rhymed the same words.

I think it is- she has tons of music references even if sub conscious-she’s rhymed the exact same lines on when the world was at war before and was a fan of Electra heart.

 

Theres also an uncredited melody and line interpolation on Ride-4.06

Y’all I am STILL feeling a deluxe edition. It’s just the vibe I’m getting like anyone else getting this?!

Hasn't she literally talked about how much she hates deluxe editions? And why split up sales like that? AND wouldn't it be her first Deluxe Edition since UV? 

[Xenoblade 3 2,065]

I don’t think Lana is thinking of that lady when writing her songs.

Deluxe boost sales not split them, hence their existence. It’s literally another variant with bonus songs.
