They spent the last week promoting streaming parties, selling single bundles, majorly discounting the song on all platforms, releasing extra visuals (a BTS and tour visual), and even made a discounted instrumental available to generate extra sales.

gagaisitalian 3,573 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Watermelon Sugar is one of the best songs from a male artist I've heard in years. He really delivered some great musical composition and vocals, even if it's silly lyrics. I stan him right behind Gaga so hard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't aware of that but to be fair the song had an organic rise to the top 10 before his team made this big push to get the #1; still a big feat for him especially as a british artist! live and let live Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chic 20,830 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 1 hour ago, StrawberryBlond said: I'm still a bit clueless as to why it picked up so late on in the game when the video had been out a while and I still don't know why its so beloved either but there could be worse songs at the top and it's nice to see that later singles can still be hits. It might make labels reconsider halting promo once the album gets released these days. As for Billie, I can't get over how low this single is charting. I know it probably isn't her lead but even so, I thought her fans were quite intense by this point? Unlike US charts most of the time, there's a lot of one-week #1's so far. The top spot has been a constant revolving door this year where you can't predict from one week to the next. It must be because so many of us are stuck indoors due to Covid and desperate for anything new, so we jump on every new song to come along. Watermelon Sugar is a bit of a summer song so it’s possible it picked up in the US because of the warmer weather. Might even have started trending on TikTok or something, though I don’t use that so I have no idea Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk about major discounts, it was only 29 cents cheaper on iTunes, even though it was 99 cents it wasn’t 69 cents. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOJA CAT 1,833 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 I wonder what the largest amount of singles has been released to go #1, like Harry's had his fourth and Doja had her fifth thank u, next Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
