I noticed there are some questions about how to stream. This week I would say streaming the whole album as often as you can is priority! Streams will get vetted for some of the charts and when you spread out your streams over more songs, more will count for the charts! Also try to use different options. We focus a lot on Spotify because that is the most visible one in amount of streams, but there are more options to stream which will count. Thanks for the explanation! Can you explain what you mean by the bolded part above? Do you mean playing the entire EP will do that even if on repeat, or do you mean streaming other songs not related to the EP?

I just read that in the Netherlands they will even out the streams for the 2 highest streaming songs on an album to a average of the songs 3 t/m 12 on the album. But what I ment is that there are systems in place that will toss out streams if you stream too much. So streaming Superpower 24/7 only will only count for a certain amount of streams. If that amount is 10 that means that if you only stream Superpower it will only count for 10 while if you stream the whole album it will count as 6x10. This is only for the charts by the way. In the Spotify numbers everything will count.

I don’t know, if it was already mentioned, but since someone said yesterday, that Brian and Roger should mention that „their younger brother has new music out“: Queen posted a whole article about it in their news on QueenOnline yesterday. With links to the music and video of Superpower. You can find it on their frontpage (where you can also watch the concert tonight!) www.queenonline.com/

Yes stream the whole album this week and the next perhaps. After that Superpower will impact radio in the US and streaming Superpower becomes more important.
