00:00Just seen this. What's this? My album about grief and heartbreak is number one on the iTunes album
00:07charts. Let me tell you a little bit of tea. You know when an artist is like buy my album, buy my
00:12album, buy my album for like six days after the album comes out? It's because for every thousand
00:16stream that counts as one record sale. So you can imagine that's a lot of pressure if you're not a
00:21massive artist to just solely rely on streams to help you maybe get into the charts. I'm not saying
00:27I would love to chart but I am saying I would love to chart. Let me tell you two fab pieces of
00:32information. On iTunes the album is £6.99. Is that not a bargain? Is that not a bargain? Biggest gag of all.
00:40The CDs have now gone down to five pounds. Five pounds. This album is basically like therapy. You
00:45can get five pound therapy with a CD if the album charted this week. I think that we can do it.
