Apparently this is being released in March, or earlier, per HitsDailyDouble. :o

Fine Line is one of my favorite albums of the past two years so consider me PERCHED.

I am so ready for the King to return and save us all.

So disappointed his Love On Tour didn't come our way but then Covid would have cancelled it anyway.

His thread on another forum which shall remain unnamed is quite problematic.
 
I didn't realize Fine Line was top 40 still on the Billboard 200. And also in the top ten selling albums of 2021 (pure sales). Pretty amazing considering the campaign wrapped up in January. From UK Mix:

ALBUM SALES WEEK 49 (PURE SALES)

albums selling over 500,000 - this year - 2 / last year - 2
albums selling over 250,000 - this year - 10 / last year - 10
albums selling over 100,000 - this year - 63 / last year - 58

Rank Estimated 2021 Sales TITLE Artist Estimated Total Sales

1 1,066,000 30 Adele 1,066,000
2 520,000 RED (TAYLOR'S VERSION) Taylor Swift 520,000
3 493,000 EVERMORE Taylor Swift 776,000
4 480,000 FEARLESS (TAYLOR'S VERSION) Taylor Swift 480,000
5 475,000 SOUR Olivia Rodrigo 475,000

I'm intrigued by where he goes next.

For shame I'd still rather Liam sat on my face, though.
 
Taylor having 3 of the top 5 and 4 of the top 10? when will your fucking faves? :D

do only pure sales count toward certifications, rather than SPS? I'll need evermore to trickle over that milli mark.

RIAA started tracking units (SPS) not just pure sales in 2016. It's interesting reading how the streaming formula favors long albums with short tracks, hence the trend to that direction. This is from Wiki:

In February 2016, RIAA updated its certification criteria for album-level awards to combine streaming and track sales using the formula for album-equivalent unit.[24]
  • Gold: 500,000 units
  • Platinum: 1,000,000 units
  • Multi-Platinum: 2,000,000 units (increments of 1,000,000 thereafter)
  • Diamond: 10,000,000 units
For certification purposes, each unit may be one of:[25]
  1. sale of a digital album or physical album
  2. 10 track downloads from the album
  3. 1,500 on-demand audio and/or video streams from the album

This. What an absolute waste (and it all started so well). Got to hand it to Harry - he has played it brilliantly.

Certainly better than National Embarrassment Liam Payne.

It's a shame as Zayn's first album is really good, and the other two have their fine moments too. Dame Elton needs to stage one of his (in)famous interventions!

Are any of the songs any cop, though? I can’t say I’ve bothered listening to any of them :)

Nothing has caught my ear so far but I'm in my late 40's and salivating over the upcoming Nurse With Wound box sets so I'm hardly in the target market. And yet, I know what he's up to and have an eye on his career because he is genuinely interesting. Neat trick.
 
I really like Harry, his music is pretty good, and him being actual besties with Stevie Nicks is lovely, but he wears the ugliest things.
