Oh, #1 in the UK
I was talking about the US. The same place that Titanium only went #7 while Diamonds topped both countries, and was her first #1, in the US.
Ignoring the fact that Titanium was a truly global smash I see.
And that the UK chart is far superior to the Dullboard 100.
Not to mention that Titanium is a better song.

Mhmmm
Really the only major difference between the UK and US charts is that the setup, which includes airplay, of Billboard makes it harder to be a "flash in the pan" #1 with first week sales.
If I want a script I dont expect a youtube link when I quote it sis. Try harder next time.

Not you thinking "Diamonds" wasnt a Global smash.
I didn't say that though. I said that Titanium was a global smash.
I know that the #NVAY is known for their inability to read but you don't always have to live the stereotype.

...but Titanium was a bigger smash. Diamonds may have peaked higher, but it didn't have a whole lot of sales legs. In fact..... Diamonds was one of the lowest selling #1's of the whole year.
Edit: Actually it was THE lowest selling #1 of the year.

But they're both global smashes, and only one went #1 in the US.

Chrome changed so that some extensions can't be installed directly through Chrome. The drag/drop method works though.

Kill and Run is amazing. I cannot with Lana, Sia, and Florence delivering such amazing songs from the OST. No doubt they released the best songs to get people to buy it, not shit like Back to (being) Black feat. some rapper because this song definitely needed a rapper.
Right!?
I mean, really...HEW listened to Back To Black and thought, "You know what this needs? A rap verse...from Andre 3000..."
Just utter shit.
Sia>Lana>>>>Florence>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Beyonce
As far as the Gatsby soundtrack goes.

I had a dream that someone called the WiiU the "WiiHEW."
PopGAF is invading my dreams.

Worked like a Charm Thanks!
But they're both global smashes, and only one went #1 in the US.
As if the relevant part of this sentence is the 'only one went #1 in the US'.
But did your dream lie?

WiiHew an unbreakable flower that survives under the harshest conditions and still thrives
lbr WiiU is a flop but its not THAT much of a flop
C'mon, WiiHEW is a Warrior doomed to Die Young like all the other Crazy Kids

The UK is the 4th biggest market in the world and the US is the first (or second, depending who you trust) so it's clear which chart matter the most.
In any case, Diamonds was a smash not only in both charts but also in Germany (3rd biggest market) where it spent 8 weeks at #1
While its true that Sia's first big ww break was Titanium, "Diamonds" marks is the first precedent of a Sia penned tune (on which she's not featured) that achieves global success WW. She's written for quite a few pop stars in the past and those tracks did not make even 1/50th of the success Diamonds had

My original point still stands and will continue standing. "Diamonds" is Sia's first #1 in the US.

Look at the trend-setting smashes of the UK chart and tell me with a straight face that Billboard is the most relevant. Stay is still top 10 in the US, in the UK it has been removed and replaced with far more relevant bops.The UK is the 4th biggest market in the world and the US is the first (or second, depending who you trust) so it's clear which chart matter the most.

Moreover as the navy is fond of telling us, the UK stans Rih so it is only logical that Rih would stay percheD looking at UK chart trends to see what to do there for her next smash.
The fact is and will remain that the impacT is Sia's.
No surprises that the Beyoncésque #NVAY would try and steal another artist's impacT to attribute it to Rih's. They tried it with the Pour it Up remix (Godney's impact) and with We Found Love (Kelis' impact) too.
WiiHew its just a fool who will now cease fire
Gurls.
Can we just agree that Sia>>>>your faves? Because she really is.
Bless Xtina for opening the door for her.

Its up there with my main fave but the rest? Fer Sure!
Bless Xtina for opening the door for her.
Bless Rihanna for opening the successful door for her.
Breathe Me predates Xtuba's work with Sia and shits on it.Bless Xtina for opening the door for her.
Gerl staph with your delusions. Titanium was a bigger smash and you will deal.Bless Rihanna for opening the successful door for her.

Bless Xtina for knowing that Breathe Me was more than "that song that plays at the end of the Six Feet Under finale" and introduced ha to the industry.
;___;
We'll have to have a listening party one of these days...in private.
To be fair if you were going to listen to a Sia-penned track it should be Titanium. One of the best pop songs in years.
