Ideal scenario: - Hallucinate next single worldwide except for US (BMH still rising) - End of summer, release Levitating everywhere - Re-release just in time for the holidays - Grammy performance + wins - World Tour 2021 her tour is slated to begin on January 3, and since it's Europe (where governments are handling the pandemic way, WAY better) I feel like it could actually begin by that time. I don't care about her European dates I'm just hoping we see the light at the end of this tunnel aaaah

Spotify (6/23):
933,288,777 | Don't Start Now (+2,755,900) 279,781,296 | Physical (+1,079,528) 253,421,668 | Break My Heart (+2,585,116)
55,128,640 | Future Nostalgia 43,380,043 | Levitating 39,736,408 | Hallucinate 33,295,112 | Pretty Please 31,756,855 | Cool 30,479,895 | Love Again 25,769,276 | Good In Bed 21,884,363 | Boys Will Be Boys
Total: 1,747,922,333 (+7,969,642)
Love seeing this pull in huge numbers three months after its release. I'm certain she can hit 3B with this - 1.5B w/ DSN, 1B between Physical and BMH, and 500M with the rest of the album tracks. And if this era still plans to run for a long time, even more!
DSN is also about 40M away from I'm The One, which is the 100th most streamed track.

This album deserves it. What a phenomenal piece of art she released.
I hope this album gets the recognition it deserves at the Grammys. She delivered.

The possibility of this excites me beyond imagination. I hope Madge will say yes.

According to some, one of Levitating's songwriters Sarah Hudson shared some old photos of Madonna in her stories on IG. It might mean Levitating would be the next single with a Madonna feature.

It's been said that Sarah Hudson tends to post old Madonna's photos on her Instagram stories, but it's too much coincidence, isn't it?

Sarah have been working with so many artists (incl. Madonna herself), it's not necessarily anything to do with Dua Lipa. I would DIE if that was the case though.

Do they need to pull the "remix" card so soon though, especially if they have a plan that spans more than a year+?

Nope, keep Madge away from Levitating.....If they insist in throwing her (and her auto tune) on a song let it be Hallucinate.

If there'll be a feature, it will be Madonna (provided she's on board with this). Haters better deal with it.

I can't imagine Madonna sounding right on any of Future Nostalgia's tracks, so this whole idea is a head-scratcher to me.

Why would they put Madge on any song? Don't they want it to do well? Madge is radio poison and she sure doesn't do too hot at streaming either.

A Dua x Madonna collab could be gay heaven if done properly.

Yeah but that's the thing, considering Dua's recent music style + Madonna adoration, it doesn't strike me at surprising that the sis would immediately jump in at a chance of having Madonna on a track.

If the collaboration with Madonna on "Levitating" turns out to be true (apparently it is), it seems that they're aiming for recognition this time, leaving chart strategies in the background and giving Dua an opportunity to work with one of the artists she admires. It's a bold move, but I applaud it.

I can't hear Madge on any song from FN but I'd love to see it happen for the culture
Even though Madge is a bit loony as of late

You can say that about any supposed older popstar but the cycle needs to break and someone needs to take the risk. Regarding streaming, I think she does a lot better than popstars from the 80's and 90's. It will be fine. I love levitating. It is my favorite song on the record.
