It's flopping
Posted by: WhoOdyssey 1st April 2019, 04:27 PM
Why's Gerry Cinnamon finally climbing into the top 40 6 months after it was released? 
Brilliant album though!
Posted by: ThePensmith 1st April 2019, 04:31 PM
Good start for Westlife, who'd have thought a year ago they'd be back with two top 20 singles to their name? Hopefully another long run like they had for 'Hello My Love' is in store for them.
Nice to see 'You Know I Know' climbing again for Olly, especially as 'Feel The Same' promo hasn't even started yet.
Posted by: WhoOdyssey 1st April 2019, 04:34 PM
Does he have any promo coming up for Feel the Same? Such a banger!

It was a joke Mark
It was a Christmas joke
Posted by: T’Seet 1st April 2019, 04:45 PM
Dido climbing *.*
She hasn’t spent more than 3 weeks top 20 since 2004.
Posted by: LMLou 1st April 2019, 04:50 PM
Great numbers for Billy, hope Bad Guy can hold on to top 3 or even climb above Giant maybe
Posted by: SophieMax 1st April 2019, 04:51 PM
I presume it will be #1 if more people keep streaming the song.
Posted by: WhoOdyssey 1st April 2019, 04:55 PM
Rammstein at #68! Still doing well on iTunes and the video has millions of views - so hopefully it will be their first Top 100 since 'Pussy' in 2009!
Posted by: ThePensmith 1st April 2019, 04:58 PM
He was on 'All Round To Mrs Brown's' on BBC One at the weekend, I'd imagine there'll be a few more TV things this month certainly although his tour starts next month so whatever there is will be limited, it always is when a single of his comes out around or just before tour starts!
EDIT: He was on Loose Women this lunchtime, my bad - talking about the song but he was also there with Jimmy and Molly, his two finalists on next weekend's final of The Voice. I know that he'll be doing a performance with both of them on the final, whether it'll be on 'Feel The Same' is yet to be seen.
Posted by: Djcheekymagpie 1st April 2019, 05:11 PM
Jax Jones only 2 place away hopefully get in by Friday
Mr brightside only come back on Monday back out again by Friday
Posted by: coi 1st April 2019, 05:31 PM
I don't think they'll hold on but I would be so up for Rammstein getting another top 100 hit!
Posted by: Wall 1st April 2019, 05:33 PM
Ouch at Zara.
Posted by: pippa 1st April 2019, 06:34 PM
Take That and Olly Murs back in the Top 40 has brightened up my day.
Jack Savoretti and Dido continuing to impress.
Billie Eillish having a great week too.
Posted by: Sid_ 1st April 2019, 06:47 PM
Queen Jess back in the top 10 
Posted by: Drpepper 1st April 2019, 06:55 PM
Ben Platt not even top 40...there's just no justice in the charts! Album is brilliant (not a term I use lightly)!
Maybe he'll promo here at some point and make an impact.
Posted by: SKOB 1st April 2019, 07:37 PM
Applies to quite many tracks!
Posted by: GTH 1st April 2019, 07:38 PM
Getting pretty bored of this stagnant top 2 now. Hoping Giant goes on ACR soon.
Really pleased with how Dido is doing. Would love to see this be a consistent seller this year. Just shows there is still enough general interest in her as an artist for people to give the new material a go.
Posted by: LMLou 1st April 2019, 07:48 PM
Suprised Don’t Smile at Me is set to fall quite a bit. Thought it would’ve reached a new peak this week
Posted by: Djcheekymagpie 2nd April 2019, 09:58 AM
Does Ariana Grande thank u next get replace monopoly feat Victoria Monet
If sell more then thank u next
3 chart rule
Posted by: SLlewellyn 2nd April 2019, 10:01 AM
If sell more then thank u next
3 chart rule
Yes, I would think that it would chart; and push "Thank U, Next" out - given that Ariana is credited as the (first) lead artist.
Posted by: M4NG0 2nd April 2019, 11:13 AM
Assuming the Top 2 remains the same, how many weeks in a row would that be now?
Posted by: danG 2nd April 2019, 11:16 AM
This would be the 6th week we have the same top 2 (and in the same order).
It wouldn't be the record though, only last year we had 'God's Plan' and 'These Days' as the top two for 7 weeks (and it would've been 8 had 'God's Plan' not fell onto ACR).
Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 2nd April 2019, 11:38 AM
Shame giant never hit the top spot as I'd have preferred the top 2 the other way around.
Posted by: Bjork 2nd April 2019, 12:05 PM
No no the Lewis capaldi song is a million times better
Still cringe everytime i hear Giant
Posted by: M4NG0 2nd April 2019, 03:22 PM
It wouldn't be the record though, only last year we had 'God's Plan' and 'These Days' as the top two for 7 weeks (and it would've been 8 had 'God's Plan' not fell onto ACR).
Also I think All 4 One's 'I Swear' was #2 behind Wet Wet Wet for 7 weeks in 1994 (or was it Right Said Fred behind Bryan Adams in 1991?)
Posted by: danG 2nd April 2019, 03:42 PM
You're right with the first one. RSF behind Bryan Adams was for 6 weeks.
Posted by: jimwatts 2nd April 2019, 04:25 PM
Longest ever static top 2 was in 1954 - 8 weeks:
Doris Day - Secret Love at #1
Johnnie Ray - Such A Night at #2 (after being #1 for a week)
Posted by: SKOB 2nd April 2019, 04:28 PM
Bad Guy can very well be #2 this week.

Posted by: dandy* 3rd April 2019, 03:34 PM
Billie Eilish is very consistent in the albums, that's quite an increase for a Tuesday sales 
edit - just realised it's two days sales isn't it! 
Posted by: Spiceboy 3rd April 2019, 03:34 PM
Ouch Westlife!
Posted by: Bjork 3rd April 2019, 03:54 PM
great for Billie eilish!
Posted by: SKOB 3rd April 2019, 03:56 PM
Billie should reach 45-50k on albums, pretty good as the album is streaming heavy.
Posted by: M4NG0 3rd April 2019, 03:56 PM
Would not have guessed a few months ago that Billie Eilish would be this big!
Posted by: danG 3rd April 2019, 03:59 PM
Good to see Europa likely to make the top 40 this week.
I would also expect Lil Nas X to make it too as he's just outside at the moment, the chart thread reactions for that song should be fun to read.
Posted by: Cqmerqn 3rd April 2019, 04:04 PM
Aw, I wonder if Billie could actually grab #1?
Posted by: JosephAvery 3rd April 2019, 04:05 PM
The gap's increased, so no
Posted by: 777666jason 3rd April 2019, 04:11 PM

Posted by: Bjork 3rd April 2019, 04:11 PM
hope Alec Benjamin can make it too, has to be close
Posted by: JosephAvery 3rd April 2019, 04:19 PM
Probably not this week unfortunately, but hopefully it can climb in next week!
Posted by: LMLou 3rd April 2019, 04:43 PM

Hope Billie can make it 2 weeks at the album summit!
Posted by: SLlewellyn 3rd April 2019, 10:37 PM
Next week she’s up against Khalid, another act that does great on streaming. Not sure how high his first week sales will be though, I wouldn’t have said more than 20k; but similarly wouldn’t have guessed any more than this for Billie Eilish and she’s set to at least double this!
Posted by: Behind These Hazel Eyes 4th April 2019, 06:50 PM
Any idea on The Veronica's position?
Posted by: WhoOdyssey 4th April 2019, 06:55 PM
Nowhere near the top 100
Posted by: Hadji 4th April 2019, 08:00 PM
Hope Europa can make the top 40. Hopefully they should seeing as they’re #64 on Spotify and #23 on itunes
Posted by: Steve201 4th April 2019, 10:07 PM
At this time of year streaming is becoming more and more dominant in the album chart compared to year end when the cd buyers return in force!
I didn't even consider Khalid which shows you a lot lol, but yes his streaming will be decent!
Posted by: WhoOdyssey 4th April 2019, 10:15 PM
I can't see Khalid getting #1, top 5 possibly.
