Massive jump for the Ultimate Collection too, from 94 to 51.

Don't know what's caused that.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 21st January 2008, 12:40 AM

probably sale price

great that shine and pateince are still top 75,both singles have around 40 weeks each on th echart which will really help push them up th echart of having total career weeks on the top 75 plus i think rule the world will have about 30 chart weeks within the top 75 also

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 21st January 2008, 07:07 PM

No - sale price has nothing to do with Ultimate Collection - its back up to its normal price (round about 11.95 most places). It must be the Brit Effect, people have got Beautiful World - after giving the 'boy band' a chance and now perhaps they want to hear some of the earlier stuff.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 22nd January 2008, 12:06 AM

well charting on full price is great news and ya the brit nominations must hav ehelped,

i wonder how far of the ultimate collection is of 1.5 million sales

Posted by: Shameless 23rd January 2008, 06:10 PM

rule the world is number 16 down 2 places in the midweeks

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 23rd January 2008, 06:33 PM

Have you any idea if BW will still be in the top 10 this Sunday?

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 23rd January 2008, 07:03 PM

now i haveny seen it in th emidweek i must ask mikey but im sure it will

Posted by: Shameless 24th January 2008, 11:05 PM

Beautiful world is top 10 in th emidweeks norma

Posted by: Shameless 25th January 2008, 11:02 PM

In ireland this week

Rule The World falls 1 place to number 18

in the albums

Beautiful world falls 2 places to number 12

Never forget the ultimate collection re enters at number 38 spending its 61st week on the chart

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 26th January 2008, 10:26 AM

I don't think RTW will ever catch up with Patience now (now not far off half-million sales, RTW has about 150,000 copies to sell to catch up). I'm quite glad really - if I'm being honest, it really isn't as good as Patience - or rather - I don't like it quite as much as Patience.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 26th January 2008, 07:28 PM

i didnt think there was as much a gap as 150,000,rule the world is still top 20 in the UK so i thnk it has about another 50,000 sales left in it,it will come close but considering patience was the comeback song and not on an album when released rule the world has done really really well as 4th single,if it had been the first single it may have sold better than patience

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 26th January 2008, 07:49 PM

But Rule The World was not a 4th single from the Beautiful World album - it was released as a stand-alone single. It only made its way onto the BW album at its 'deluxe' stage. I doubt it will get anywhere near Patience (which was still in the iTunes download chart a whole 14 months after its release, up to a few weeks ago). And quite rightly so - Patience is, for me anyway, leagues ahead of Rule The World. If I'm being honest - I prefer Reach Out to RTW.

Kathy

Posted by: Shameless 26th January 2008, 08:01 PM

i love patience nyself and i love rule the world i dont know which i truly prefer but i love both,i dont mean 4th single as in 4th single of an album its the fourth single since they reformed patience had the advanatge as it was the comeback single gaining alot more hype etc ,i like reach out myself which should have been a single instead of id wait for life but reach out isnt nearly as good as rule the world or patience or shine for that matter

Posted by: Shameless 27th January 2008, 06:06 PM

On week 15 rule the world falls 3 places to number 17

Posted by: Shameless 27th January 2008, 06:52 PM

Rule the world is on dancing on ice tonight a couple are dancing to it so it will give it a sales boost i think for next week

Posted by: Shameless 27th January 2008, 07:29 PM

Uk album position this week


6 3 53 Take That Beautiful World


34 51 71 Take That Never Forget - The Ultimate Collection

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 27th January 2008, 09:43 PM

Hope you're right Shameless ... it seemed to work for Leona last week - pushing her up three places.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 27th January 2008, 10:21 PM

ya im hoping the same for take that,although with westlife performing on the show they will prob gain the most

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 28th January 2008, 07:36 PM

Well they've crept up a couple of places on iTunes but I can't see that making any impression on the chart come Sunday.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 28th January 2008, 11:54 PM

could be enough to keep it top 20

Posted by: Shameless 29th January 2008, 01:23 PM

no info on rule the world yet but beautiful world is still top in the midweeks

Posted by: Shameless 3rd February 2008, 05:37 PM

rule the world hold stop 20 again this week,its number 19

Posted by: Shameless 3rd February 2008, 07:28 PM

Beautiful world falls 6 places to number 12 this week

never forget the ultimate collection climbs 5 places to number 29

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 3rd February 2008, 07:45 PM

I'm impressed with the Ultimate Collection's continued climbs over the past few weeks. Especially as its full price (incidentally - BW is no longer a cheap buy - so that's done well to stay as high as it has).

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 3rd February 2008, 08:09 PM

both albums have been so successfull and its just great to see ,likewise with the singles apart from id wait for life,the 3 singles have sold really well just as well if not more than some of the singles from years back and thats great as singles sales nowadays in general are much much lower

Posted by: Shameless 5th February 2008, 08:24 PM

Rule The World is number 25 down 6 places in the mid weeks this weeks

Posted by: Shameless 10th February 2008, 07:10 PM

rule the world is number 26 this week and beautiful world is number 19,both may benefit from valentines sales next weeek aalso

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 10th February 2008, 07:38 PM

And The Ultimate Collection has risen three places to 26 (after Mikey predicted on Friday that mid-week figures suggested it had fallen a place). Must have been a good few sold on the Saturday!

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 10th February 2008, 07:39 PM

ya i forgot t add that the ultimate collection climbed,again another album that could gain well from valentines sales

Posted by: Simon. 11th February 2008, 09:34 PM

I'm really glad this song has done so well My favourites of theirs

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 11th February 2008, 09:38 PM

Hello Simon! Hope you take part in the B&I thread!

Normakath

Posted by: Shameless 12th February 2008, 06:45 PM

ya simon please join in th eboot and immune

also id love to know what rule the world total uk sales are now

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 12th February 2008, 07:59 PM

Well they've sold about 60,000 in 2008 (only about 9 thousand less than Leon - and RTW has been out much longer!) Added to their sales from 2007 and I reckon it isn't that far off 400,000.

Normakath

Posted by: Shameless 12th February 2008, 08:14 PM

i thought it was well over 400,000

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 12th February 2008, 08:14 PM

No I don't think so - I think it is still considerably behind Patience.

Normakath

Posted by: Shameless 12th February 2008, 08:23 PM

what are patience over all sales now

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 12th February 2008, 08:30 PM

I would have thought close to half-million by now!

Normakath

Posted by: Shameless 12th February 2008, 08:35 PM

both huge selling singles which is great

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 12th February 2008, 08:49 PM

Spiker's just informed me on the chart thread that RTW has so far sold 418K

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 12th February 2008, 09:03 PM

that is great and it does have about 50,000 or near enough sales left in it yet

Posted by: Shameless 15th February 2008, 09:01 PM

RULE THE WORLD CLIMBS 3 PLACES IN IRELAND this week to number 23

never forget the greatest hits climbs 2 places to number 18

beautiful world also climbs this week up 3 places to number 24

Posted by: Shameless 17th February 2008, 03:52 PM

I hope rule the world stays top 30 again this week and both albums climb would be great

Posted by: Shameless 17th February 2008, 04:50 PM

Rule The World falls 4 places to number 30 on its 18th week on the chart

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 17th February 2008, 10:50 PM

Albums are still going ok. BW only fell 6 while Ultimate Collection fell 5.

Hope they win something at the Brits but I've got a nasty feeling they'll leave empty-handed. Having said that - I'm sure Gary will enjoy being able to getting totally rat-*rsed this year as they're not performing.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 17th February 2008, 10:56 PM

id love them to win a brit i will be keeping my fingers crossed for them kylie and girls aloud

ya the albums are holding up well both still top 30,both albums have done amazingly well.

looks at the success of there greatest hits comparing to the spice girls,i wonder how boyzone will fair,i think boyzone will sell just under half of never forget and just near double of the spicies

Posted by: Shameless 24th February 2008, 07:41 PM

Rule the world climbs 6 places to number 24 this week and shine re enters at number 73

in the album chart

Beautiful world climbs 3 places to number 22 and
Never forget the ultimate collection falls 2 places to number 33

Posted by: Shameless 28th February 2008, 07:40 PM

Rule the world is to p20 in thursdays uk midweeks which is brilliant news


i really do think rule the world will outsell patience now

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 28th February 2008, 07:46 PM

I've got a strong feeling that RTW creeping up again is more due to the effect of the release of the Stardust DVD rather than the Brits effect (which would have happened last week).

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 28th February 2008, 08:06 PM

either way the single is still selling quite well and to be top 20 on its 20th week on the chart is brilliant

Posted by: Shameless 29th February 2008, 08:35 PM

Beautiful world dvd is new at number 1 hrere in ireland

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 29th February 2008, 08:46 PM

One of our Irish friends on Trousers has just posted us that - good to hear. I'm pretty sure it'll be number one here in the UK too. With Stardust being the number one in the Film DVD chart - Take That will, in effect, have two contributions in the DVD chart!

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 29th February 2008, 09:16 PM

I think its there first dvd number 1 here also

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 29th February 2008, 09:23 PM

Is there anywhere on Buzzjack that give out DVD music chart information. Do you think it would be a bit cheeky to ask Martin AKA Mikey for such news?

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 2nd March 2008, 03:48 PM

i dont know but there was a music site a while back that had all dvd chart positions but the site has since closed

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 2nd March 2008, 06:06 PM

Well on Play.com top sellers list this week:

1. Stardust
2. Take That Beautiful World Live
3. Ratatouille
4. Atonement
5. Oceans 13

So if Beautiful World Tour DVD is up there amongst actual 'film' releases - when you narrow it down to just music alone - I suppose Take That must be number 1.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 2nd March 2008, 06:25 PM

GREAT top 2

Posted by: Shameless 2nd March 2008, 06:42 PM

ON week 20 rule the world is back in the top 20 in the uk,it climbs 4 places to number 20,its chart performance is simply amazing

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 2nd March 2008, 07:17 PM

Beautiful World is up to 16 and Never Forget is a non-mover at 33. With RTW up again and the DVD almost certainly to be number one in the music dvd chart (hopefully announced tomorrow) - not a bad week's work for the lads.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 2nd March 2008, 07:26 PM

its a great week for them and both albums doing amazinglt amazingly well,

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 2nd March 2008, 07:39 PM

It looks like if they bring up-to-date the albums of the decade - Beautiful World could well be inside the top 10!

And some nay-sayers gave them 6 months tops in mid 2006! Daft really - considering they're far better and more successful now than they were the first time round.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 2nd March 2008, 07:48 PM

their success this time is beyond what anyone including themsleves ever thought,the greatest hits and beautiful world in total will be around 4 million by the time they finish and that is amazing

3 huge huhe selling singles also ,i think patience and rule the world mae the top 3 best selling take that singles along with back for good??? am i right??

Posted by: Bond Bug 2nd March 2008, 07:59 PM

Am I right in thinking that Take That have outsold more albums in the UK since their comeback than all their previous albums put together.

Posted by: Shameless 2nd March 2008, 08:28 PM

i doubt it as all of take thats albums have been big sellers i think all the first 4 albums sold around a million each and some a little more

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 2nd March 2008, 08:32 PM

Shameless - good news on the DVD - not only has the Beautiful World Tour DVD entered straight at number one - but the Ultimate Tour is back in at number 25!

(good old Martin AKA Mikey)

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 2nd March 2008, 09:02 PM

GReta news and yet another brilliant week for take that with the exception of id wait for life eveythinh else has just sold and charted amazingly

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 2nd March 2008, 09:39 PM

I really like IWFL sung on the tour - it is speeded up a little - and all four voices come in almost straight away - much better than the single release (which to be honest - I don't really like and it was a poor choice).

The only down-side of all this success is that tickets for the next concert (hoping they do one in 2010) will be even harder to come by! I may even resort to doing something that I vowed I would never do - not even for ELO (and I'd do anything for Jeff Lynne) - and that is camp out for tickets! Or pay someone to do it for me!

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 2nd March 2008, 10:06 PM

ya the more success means tickets are far harder to get,still seeing do so well is great on the other hand.

if wait for life was a bad choice fr a single as the song was far far to slow and even to slow for radio play,i did think at the time that they would have enough of a loyal fan base at the time to seee it into the top 10 though

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 2nd March 2008, 10:13 PM

Honestly though - on the tour - its a pretty good performance (by all of them). Also - after all the frenetic energy they'd spent on Reach Out and It Only Takes a Minute - I think they all needed a breather!

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 2nd March 2008, 10:41 PM

well after the 2 years they have had they are well worthy of a break and duriong that break they will still see th emoney rolling in

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 2nd March 2008, 11:24 PM

Do you think you may get to see them live next time they tour?

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 2nd March 2008, 11:41 PM

id love to see them one day as they are so good live,maybe the next time they tour i will get to go,what puts me off is im epileptic and im usually wary of going to concerts in case i get a fit

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 3rd March 2008, 08:58 PM

Shameless - If they do the Odyssey again ... I'd recommend that venue. Its a lovely, smaller venue and the tiers aren't like Mount Bloody Everest like they are at the MEN and The O2. Also - if you're seats are a bit stifling - see the customer services to be re-located - they'll most likely put you in a more comfortable place ... also a good idea to check where the first aiders are. You must see them!

Norma

Posted by: Bond Bug 4th March 2008, 05:28 PM

I don't know how accurate this is:

I got info on BFI certification from Wikipedia
Comeback sales from Buzzjack chart pages.


STUDIO ALBUMS

Take That and Party
* BPI certification: 2× platinum

Everything Changes
* BPI certification: 3× platinum

Nobody Else
* BPI certification: 2× platinum

That's 7 x platinum total shipped or 2.1 million


COMEBACK STUDIO ALBUM

Beautiful World has sold over 2.2 million




'BEST OF' ALBUMS

Take That: Greatest Hits
* BPI certification: 3× platinum


COMEBACK 'BEST OF' ALBUM

Never Forget has sold just under 1.5 million



Total comeback sales: 3.7 million

Pre-comeback BPI certification: 3 million

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 4th March 2008, 05:34 PM

I think Beautiful World is now nearer 2.4 million so far, certainly 2.3+.

Thanks for the other info!

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 4th March 2008, 10:53 PM

the sales aall round are brilliant

Posted by: FlyingTheFlag 7th March 2008, 01:54 AM

Aside from the brilliant achievement of the DVD being #1 in the UK, Ireland, Italy and Spain further DVD charts have been updated -

Denmark - #3 http://www.hitlisterne.dk/

The Netherlands - #4 http://www.dutchcharts.nl/weekchart.asp?cat=d

Belgium - #7 http://www.ultratop.be/nl/weekchart.asp?cat=d

Sweden - #13 http://www.hitlistan.se/

Also expected to enter at #1 in Germany

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 7th March 2008, 08:33 AM

I was given wrong info! Someone on another site told me Take That were number 1 in the music dvd and number 3 in the overall dvd - but I think you're posting is certainly correct.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 7th March 2008, 11:39 PM

the dvd is down to number 2 in irelan dthis week,the albums have climbed and so has rule the world

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 8th March 2008, 12:10 AM

The DVD is top 5 in the Netherlands, Top 10 in Belgium, and top 15 in Sweden (they never do too well there anyway).

German DVD chart still to be announced. All in all a very profitable little venture for them.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 8th March 2008, 12:11 AM

id say it will do very we;ll in germany

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 9th March 2008, 10:13 PM

Pretty good going from the lads. Must admit - can't wait for the start of this Britannia High that Gary and Guy Chambers are involved with. Weird to think of Rob's song writer now working with Gary. Its a funny old world.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 12th March 2008, 04:05 PM

rule is the world is numbe r35 in the charts looks like week 22 in the top 40

Posted by: Shameless 16th March 2008, 08:52 PM

WEEK 22 rule the world falls just 5 places to number 32

Beautiful world is number 32 down 11 places on its 60th week

Ultimate collection is numbe r42 down 2 places on its 78th weeek on the chart

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 16th March 2008, 09:17 PM

I noticed they went up on iTunes over Friday and Saturday. Mid-week they were scheduled to drop eight places and in the end they only dropped 5. Just one more week in the top 40 would be great but I don't see it happening. Hopefully they'll stay in the top 75 for at least another 6 weeks though.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 16th March 2008, 09:18 PM

they may stay top 40 next week as rule the world was partly played on tonights dancing on ice final

Posted by: Shameless 18th March 2008, 05:15 PM

rule the world is climbing again in todays midweeks its top 30 dancing on ice has helped sales

Posted by: Shameless 21st March 2008, 02:42 AM

its hard to believe since tak ethat returned they have sold almost 4 million album in the uk between the greatest hits and beautiful world id say by the time they stop selling these albums combined will sell 4.5 million which i think its bloody amazing

id love to know combined sales for patience shine id wait for life and rule the world

i know patience and rule the world sold over 400,000 each,shine has sold near 300,000 and id wait for life id say around 15,000

Posted by: Shameless 13th April 2008, 05:56 PM

beautiful world climbed 16 places to number 22 today

Posted by: Shameless 13th April 2008, 06:24 PM

rule the world is number 50 this week down just 4 places

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 13th April 2008, 06:29 PM

Beautiful World is up to number 22 in the album chart though! Must have been that showing of the BW Tour on TMF last Sunday.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 13th April 2008, 06:33 PM

ya must have been ,both are still doing great

Posted by: Shameless 13th April 2008, 06:42 PM

Posted by: Demo Tape 14th April 2008, 02:18 PM

I'm still staggered at how much Beautiful World has sold in the UK. Over 2.2 million. Amazing.

Posted by: Shameless 14th April 2008, 03:18 PM

it deserves it and 3 amazing singles have helped greatly

Posted by: Demo Tape 14th April 2008, 03:32 PM

2 amazing singles. Shine was blahh

Posted by: Shameless 14th April 2008, 03:34 PM

shine patience and rule teh world were brilliant for me i wasnt so keen on id wait for life

Posted by: Demo Tape 14th April 2008, 04:33 PM

I like "I'd Wait For Life"..even if it did the worst.

Posted by: Shameless 14th April 2008, 05:37 PM

its a nice song but not single material it should have stayed an album track

Posted by: Demo Tape 14th April 2008, 05:51 PM

Yep. Wooding Boat was the best song on the album after Patience.

Posted by: Shameless 14th April 2008, 05:53 PM

no shine was

Posted by: Demo Tape 14th April 2008, 05:54 PM

Nah. Wooden Boat.

Posted by: Shameless 14th April 2008, 05:55 PM

Wonder why its climbing again (slowly granted - but still climbing). Not bad considering its been out since 2006 I suppose.

Posted by: Shameless 27th April 2008, 06:11 PM

WEEK 28 rule the world falls 9 places to number 68,i hope it can hang on another week in the top 75 next week

Posted by: Sheila_Blige 27th April 2008, 06:23 PM

I doubt it will. It has definitely run out of all steam now. Its had a good run. Until their next material is released all my interest is in the DVD now - hope it holds on to a ninth week at number 1 tomorrow. I went to a book fair yesterday and bought three Take That Videos (Greatest Hits, Hometown Manchester concert and Everything Changes for £1!) Glad I got them but they are so much better today. I thought the Hometown Manchester one was so boring - they definitely have more energy today than they had then ... they hardly moved around the stage! Howard's cowboy chaps were ace though!

alot of effore went inthis tour where before they prob took it more for granted,

oi think the dvd wil lstill be number 1 as the album is till selling well which again i think is fantastic

Posted by: Shameless 3rd May 2008, 07:30 PM

rule the world has been used on britains got talent which may help add a few more sale sto the isngle

Posted by: Sheila_Blige 3rd May 2008, 10:44 PM

Well RTW went up from 93 to 77 on the iTunes chart just tonight. Every little contribution helps I suppose. Beautiful World has gone up on the iTunes download chart too - to 56 but I don't know how much impact the download chart has on the album chart proper, itself.

Norma

Posted by: Shameless 3rd May 2008, 11:14 PM

IT may help keep rule the world in the top 75 for another week

id love know rule the world total sales now

Posted by: X=The-One 11th May 2008, 06:22 PM

on its 30th week on th echart rule the world climbs 3 places to number 66

Posted by: Sheila_Blige 11th May 2008, 06:23 PM

Pretty good going - the albums are holding well too - both Beautiful World and Ultimate collection.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 11th May 2008, 06:41 PM

ya beautiful world falls 9 to number 50

and ultimate collection is a non mover at number 56

Posted by: Sheila_Blige 11th May 2008, 06:55 PM

With a bit of luck - the DVD should go back to number 1 tomorrow (it will do anyway when Celine finishes her bloody tour).

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 11th May 2008, 07:04 PM

i think take that are in with a strong chance of returning to number 1

also i think both albums potentailly have another 50,000 sales left in them and rule the world possibly another 10-12000 also

Posted by: X=The-One 11th May 2008, 09:36 PM

I hope rule the world climbs again next week

Posted by: Sheila_Blige 11th May 2008, 09:45 PM

Someone (Euro Music I think) posted some artists who've been in the top 200 for 50 odd weeks or more - no mention of Take That - so I've asked for confirmation - but I'm sure I don't need to as I'm certain Patience has been in the top 200 for over 70 weeks and Shine for over 50 weeks.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 11th May 2008, 09:46 PM

is sat they both wud be as both do well still on airplay charts

Posted by: Sheila_Blige 12th May 2008, 04:27 PM

RTW has now dropped out of the iTunes 100 chart.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 13th May 2008, 10:12 PM

i hope its top 75 in th emain charts come sunday

Posted by: X=The-One 31st May 2008, 05:27 PM

rule the world was number 83 last sunday so its still holkding top 100

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 31st May 2008, 09:37 PM

Its back inside the iTunes 100 (just barely!)

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 31st May 2008, 10:44 PM

lets hope it stays around for a while longer

Posted by: X=The-One 15th June 2008, 09:51 PM

on its 35th week in the top 100 Rule the world is a non mover at number 83

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 16th June 2008, 07:25 PM

Its hovered between 100 and 114 on iTunes for about the last three weeks - so these 'new fangled download things' must be contributing a bit!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 16th June 2008, 08:49 PM

ya they seem to be plus it keeps the sales rising and rising

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 16th June 2008, 09:01 PM

I've just noticed a post in one of the regular threads too - vidcapper has posted that RTW has actually stayed at number 83 for five consecutive weeks.

Oh - and on the DVD front - its still inside the top 10! Absolutely incredible. I wonder if Boyzone's dvd will do as well?

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 16th June 2008, 09:07 PM

boyzone will do well but nothing near take that,,,i just hope rule the world can stay top 100 for a good few weeks yet

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 23rd June 2008, 09:20 PM

RTW drops to 88 (thanks vidcapper).

Still top 100 though. But Rihanna's Umbrella is still in the 100 which is absolutely amazing - it must be nearly a year if not past that already!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 24th June 2008, 11:43 PM

umbrella has passed the year and im delighted take that are still there

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 29th June 2008, 05:20 PM

RTW is up to 91 on iTunes - so hopefully - another week in the top 100.

Up to 86 at the last glance!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 29th June 2008, 10:42 PM

it should be easily top 100 for this week at the least

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 30th June 2008, 07:26 AM

Sadly - the dvd is out of the top ten now!

Norma

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 30th June 2008, 07:21 PM

Yey! Up to number 80 in the 100. I should imagine it'll stay in the top 100 for a few more weeks. Apparently the choir singing RTW do a really good job on it ... so there may be affect the Take That song.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 30th June 2008, 09:43 PM

woohoo that sgreat news maybe it will do a top 75 return yet

Posted by: X=The-One 1st July 2008, 10:53 PM

rule the world is top 80 in this weeks midweeks

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 2nd July 2008, 06:24 PM

Don't think it'll stay there - its dropped in the iTunes chart to 117. I'm expecting it to pick up after this Saturday though.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 2nd July 2008, 10:07 PM

even it stays top 10 0i will be happy but a top 75 return would be brilliant

Posted by: Dannyboy 2nd July 2008, 10:16 PM

Climbs from 88 to 80

Posted by: X=The-One 6th July 2008, 10:17 PM

rule the world has re entered the uk top 75 at number 70 this week,im delighted about this

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 7th July 2008, 06:59 AM

Its still mid 50's on the iTunes chart but I should imagine the effect will have worn off by next week's chart. Still should be comfortably inside the top 100 though.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 10th July 2008, 02:35 AM

itmay hold top 75 again come sunday

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 10th July 2008, 05:43 PM

Don't know about that - its slipped on iTunes - back down to the 80's now! They need another choir to sing it on Saturday!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 10th July 2008, 05:46 PM

well il be happy once they appear on either chart on sunday

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 10th July 2008, 08:14 PM

I think you're right - it'll hold!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 10th July 2008, 09:14 PM

im happy that they are still selling even though the material is out yonks now

Posted by: X=The-One 13th July 2008, 10:52 PM

rulr the world number 61 this week which im delighted with

Posted by: X=The-One 20th July 2008, 10:39 PM

rule the world falls just 4 places to number 65 this week sadly beautiful world is not top 75

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 21st July 2008, 06:37 AM

Hopefully they'll have a new album in the chart by December anyway.

Norma

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 21st July 2008, 05:03 PM

Just checked - its still in the 100 though at 77.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 21st July 2008, 11:00 PM

thats quite good,beautiful world will stay top 200 for a long time yet as will rule the world

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 23rd July 2008, 07:58 AM

RTW and Patience are both in the top 20 for songs of the decade!

Surprised that Shine is as low as it is (although still in the 200) given that it is the most performed song of the last year and the 7th most performed of the last 5 years.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 23rd July 2008, 08:19 PM

shone has sold alot less than rule the world and patience but i think it has most weeks on the chart from all 3 singles

Posted by: BJBB Norma 23rd July 2008, 08:27 PM

The particular chart is going on 'top 10' success and although Shine has spent more time in the 200 than say, Patience - it didn't hang around in the top 10 for as long.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 23rd July 2008, 08:37 PM

plus it had a much lower download entry

Posted by: BJBB Norma 26th July 2008, 02:45 PM

RTW is out of iTunes altogether now!

Norma

I tell a lie - its back in though only at 115 (not bad considering its been out almost a year I suppose - its almost up there with Umbrella and Chasing Cars for being in a long time.)

Posted by: BJBB Ben 26th July 2008, 03:22 PM

What's the total sales for Rule The World now? Do you know?

Posted by: BJBB Norma 26th July 2008, 04:14 PM

I think its about half a million now Ben (or should I say Drew)

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 28th July 2008, 01:01 PM

rule the world is a non mover at number 65 this week and beautiful world re enters at number 75

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 28th July 2008, 08:39 PM

Do you know - I'm going mad! I'm sure I posted that yesterday - but I can't find my post!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 29th July 2008, 11:21 AM

THAT has happened me a few times so i know what u are going through ....u will be ok norma though

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 29th July 2008, 08:29 PM

It was being among those crazy young things in the Big Brother House for a few days! They keep you young but they make you feel very old at the same time!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 29th July 2008, 10:27 PM

Did u enjoy your big brother experience???

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 31st July 2008, 06:41 PM

I did actually!

Norma

I see RTW is going up again in the iTunes chart (very slowly - but it never seems to be very far from the 95 - 100 position (its now in the 80's). Should see it stay in the top 100 for another week anyway.

Posted by: X=The-One 31st July 2008, 06:45 PM

i think it will be top 75 again this week in the offical chart

i can never find the i tunes chart on my i tunes

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 31st July 2008, 07:49 PM

There's a link to it in the iTunes download thread within the chart chat forum.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 31st July 2008, 07:58 PM

im after spending the last hour and i got it sorted but i get the irish version sadly no take that in the top 100 and kylie isnt on the chart either

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 31st July 2008, 10:29 PM

Slipping a bit now on iTunes. I suspect though it'll come back when it gets to the finals of Last Choir Standing - it seems everyone's predicting the Revelations Choir (who sing RTW) to win. Personally I don't know how because although the girls in the choir do a fab job - the guy singing the main bits is really pants! IMO!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 31st July 2008, 10:35 PM

if it does win u can guarantee rule the world will climb and climb again

Posted by: X=The-One 2nd August 2008, 08:33 PM

number 86 in ireland i tunes today it wasnt top 100 the last 2 days

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 2nd August 2008, 10:10 PM

Still mid 80's in the iTunes chart and set to still be in the 60's on Sunday.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 2nd August 2008, 10:55 PM

i can see it been around number 65 again this week on tomorrows offical chart

Posted by: IrisAlbastru 3rd August 2008, 07:27 AM

I will love RTW to climb in the charts, but I must admit I didn't liked Revelation , or better said the solist . I love choir music, but that was most of the time solist (who didn't sang too great) with background singers.

Now "Shine" sung for all that 5 choirs was to die for!

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 3rd August 2008, 07:30 AM

And yet you wouldn't believe the number of people on Youtube who've said that he's a 'brilliant' singer - and that he sings it better than Take That. They must be deaf because he's one of the worst singers I've ever heard. In fact the whole show is a bit awful - the only truly good choir I've heard on the show is the choir from Northern Ireland.

Norma

Posted by: IrisAlbastru 3rd August 2008, 09:46 AM

Oh yes, I saw the comments on youtube. But there are also a lot of people who said that Thomas Godoj was better (he is a german "X-factor"-similar DSDS winner) and he is a good singer BUT he sung it out-of-tune many times!

Sometimes people see only what they want to see. If they think that an ex-boy-band is too much under their level they will rate more a choir, esp. for those snobs who bangs about liking only classic or rock music and hating pop-music .

Hehe, I didn't like TT the first time, but today they make good music ( yes pop-music, but when is good music I am not interested which kind it is). As long as they make this good music I will buy and listen to it . That doesn't mean that I will like all the ex-boy-bands reunited as man-bands thought I will give all a chance and listen .

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 3rd August 2008, 09:26 PM

I only caught on to them this time, even though, the first time I had to reluctantly admit that Back For Good, Pray and Never Forget were quite exquisite songs.

I just think their success this time round is quite astounding - its even more satisfying to know that they are more successful this time - without Robbie 'I was always the talented one in the band' Williams. So they can survive without him!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 3rd August 2008, 09:34 PM

I liked some of their stuff first time round it was a million love songs was the first song of theirs i liked but i find them more consistant now with songs this time round


rule the world is still holding top 75 just down 2 places to number 67 this week

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 3rd August 2008, 09:45 PM

RTW is up in the 70's now on iTunes! If this keeps up - it should hold on to another week in the top 75 come Sunday!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 3rd August 2008, 11:13 PM

single sales are low and the chart is very steady so it cud have another 2 or 3 weeks top 75 yet

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 4th August 2008, 08:56 PM

Album's still in the top 100 at 84.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 4th August 2008, 10:20 PM

i wonde rwhere ultimate colelction is this week?

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 5th August 2008, 07:35 AM

According to someone on TTTV its still well inside the 200 (could possibly be just outside the 100).

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 5th August 2008, 10:20 PM

I must try and find out total sales for rule the world ultimate collection patience and beautiful world

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 6th August 2008, 06:24 AM

Where do you find that stuff out though? I keep trying to tot up where BW must be via David's Top 40 albums thread - it seems to be selling a steady 2,000 per week and has been doing for a good few weeks. Doubtless when the new album is released - we may see Beautiful World on offer for £3 or £4 - so it has a chance of going top 30 again nearer Christmas.

No idea on the singles - except that RTW must have overtaken Patience by now - if it hasn't already sold half a million - it can only be a copy or two short of it.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 6th August 2008, 06:45 PM

what is great about take that is since they retirned we all know the music singles sales have dropped yet they have managed 2 singles to sell around half a million each and an other that sold around 300,000 to get such sale sin this era is amazing i think

yes i agree when the new album is released i think we will see beautiful world and the ultimate colelction rocket up the charts again,,both albums wil lsell and sell for a long time yet

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 10th August 2008, 09:45 PM

See Beautiful World is back in at 69 even though RTW has dropped to 71.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 11th August 2008, 11:25 PM

im so happy that both are still charting considering how well they have sold and how long its been since they were released it shows what great staying power they have

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 12th August 2008, 06:45 AM

And as well as BW being back in the 75 at 69 - The Ultimate Collection went up from 95 to 82.

RTW is still not finished in the iTunes chart either - it was as high as the 70's on Sunday night (although its dropped back to the 90's now). A few more injections of Last Choir Standing should see a few more sales going its way - and also - there are bound to be people singing (or trying to sing it) on the X Factor when it starts - and thats usually good for business.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 12th August 2008, 10:56 PM

ya a few x factor attempts wud be a great help also and as u mention it i can see it happening

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 13th August 2008, 06:54 AM

Back in the 80's in iTunes now.

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 13th August 2008, 07:41 PM

great sign for sundays chart again

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 13th August 2008, 08:43 PM

Its the final of that Last Choir Standing thing this weekend and if Revelation sing RTW again - Take That may benefit from some last minute downloads before Midnight on Saturday night!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 13th August 2008, 09:55 PM

i hope that happens and if they win and sing rtw is will boost the sales even further

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 13th August 2008, 09:57 PM

Also - doesn't X Factor start soon? We're bound to have thousands of hopefuls trying to sing this song - bless'em all!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 14th August 2008, 12:39 AM

im looking forward to x factor i must say

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 14th August 2008, 07:12 AM

So am I. I love the audition stages (not keen on the later stages). I only watch it really for the truly terrible ones (even though some of those end up in the finals! )

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 14th August 2008, 03:45 PM

i usually watch it the whole way through i like it but x factor is my daughters fave programme

Posted by: X=The-One 17th August 2008, 07:52 PM

Beautiful World climbs 9 place sto number 60 this week

Rule The World climbs 6 places to number 65

good week again for them

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 23rd August 2008, 05:23 PM

It may be in the 50's this weekend (at one point it was inside the iTunes 40 - although its back in the 80's now).

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 24th August 2008, 08:01 PM

beautful world is number 48 this week and rule the world climbs to number 61

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 24th August 2008, 08:44 PM

That is really good for BW. Hope it is flying high when their new album is released!

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 25th August 2008, 10:30 PM

well th efact that its selling now and no single or nothing out its sure to sell really well again when th enew single is released and sell again when the new album hits the shelves

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 25th August 2008, 10:34 PM

RTW is still hovering in the 50's at the moment - so it should still be top 75 in the chart come Sunday.

Shine's back in as well (but only in the 100's).

Norma

Posted by: X=The-One 25th August 2008, 10:47 PM

rule the world will def remain top 75 again this week it must be back in 6 weeks agian now which is great and id love shine to make a top 75 return also

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 1st September 2008, 10:06 AM

rlw is number 66 this week on the main chart and lcs will help it stay top 75 this coming sunday also im sure

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 2nd September 2008, 06:03 PM

im delighte dto see rule the world in the midweeks top 50 today i hope it can stay there or higher

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 2nd September 2008, 06:08 PM

It is slipping on iTunes although it should still be in the 60's this Sunday in the main chart.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 2nd September 2008, 06:09 PM

even that itself would be godd as this would be its 40th week top 75

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 2nd September 2008, 06:14 PM

And its never left the 100 has it?

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 3rd September 2008, 10:55 AM

no not yet its in about 55 weeks i tink

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 3rd September 2008, 07:35 PM

RTW has just gone up on iTunes a couple of places ... not ground-breaking news - but it is unusual. Ordinarily it goes steadily down from Sunday onwards.

Norma

Posted by: Nick F1 3rd September 2008, 07:59 PM

39 weeks Rule The World is in top 75

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 3rd September 2008, 08:05 PM

I hope they can round it off with a nice even 40 this weekend and then I don't mind it dropping out after that.

Norma

Posted by: Nick F1 3rd September 2008, 08:19 PM

That is possible, now is #66, just one week to 40 weeks, we will see in Sunday.

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 3rd September 2008, 09:12 PM

I'm getting a bit impatient now though for some new stuff. Did you have a look at that 'gossip' thread I posted? At least it was a bit of news about them rehearsing (even if it is just NME goss).

Norma

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 4th September 2008, 09:05 AM

Bryn Christopher seems to be doing OK on iTunes at the moment (at number 23 with 'Smiling'). Bryn is the first artist to be signed to Gary Barlow's publishing company (San Remo - established to give chances to unsigned songwriters).

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 4th September 2008, 11:46 AM

god i didnt know that i really hope it can go top 20 by sunday it would be a nice start for them

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 4th September 2008, 03:23 PM

Its a good song and he's a good singer - a sort of male Amy Winehouse!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 4th September 2008, 03:40 PM

more promo will be needed tho

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 4th September 2008, 03:52 PM

I don't think he's done any apart from one performance a week or so ago on TV AM.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 4th September 2008, 04:00 PM

promo is more important than ever now as its hard to get a hit these days even with promo

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 7th September 2008, 08:11 PM

Rule The World up to 55 in the singles and Beautiful World a non-mover at 65.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 8th September 2008, 04:31 PM

im well happy with both positions and hopefully both will hold top 75 next week again

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 13th September 2008, 07:03 PM

one of the contestants sang(well tried,BADLY) to sing rule the world tonight he idnt get through but they played a bit of take that rule the world so hopefully it will get a few more people downloading it and help it stay in the charts

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 13th September 2008, 11:05 PM

That was so funny ... but I hate myself for laughing ... I truly hate the way X-Factor has got more cruel with each series. Tonight was positively the worst.

Norma

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 14th September 2008, 12:00 AM

Well RTW is back in the 70's on iTunes so I can see it still being in the top 75 this Sunday!

Norma

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 14th September 2008, 10:18 AM

RTW is actually at 34 in iTunes this morning and the album version is at 107!

Should be top 75 next Sunday too at this rate!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 14th September 2008, 05:57 PM

its def looking dat way i really want to find out total sales again now

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 14th September 2008, 06:54 PM

Beautiful World falls 6 place sto number 71 this week and Rule The World falls 3 place sto number 58

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 14th September 2008, 07:06 PM

But up again on iTunes to number 26 with the OST version at 99. Surely this will see them go up a bit in next Sunday's chart.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 14th September 2008, 07:18 PM

ya def should be enough at the least to see rtw stay top 75 next sunday again

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 16th September 2008, 09:41 AM

Dropped a bit now - to 36 from 28 last night (but only a slight drop compared to previous ones). They've still got the OST version in the top 120 as well.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 16th September 2008, 06:13 PM

its top 30 in todays midweek charts whicg is brilliant but im expecting it to drop during the week but it should be top 50 at worst on sunday

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 16th September 2008, 06:36 PM

I think it will be high 40's this Sunday. But you never know - someone may dance to it on Saturday on Strictly!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 16th September 2008, 06:36 PM

top 40 again wud be great,reality tv just better use it again

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 16th September 2008, 08:48 PM

I knew it was a lovely song (and I did say when the initial battle was being waged here between Leona fans and us that it would stay around the chart for a lot longer than Bleeding Love ... but I didn't think it would be this long.)

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 16th September 2008, 08:54 PM

i didnt tink itwud either and i wonder whats the difference in sales between both songs now??

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 16th September 2008, 08:57 PM

Leona is still way ahead with the bulk of sales at the very beginning ... but over the next year or so ... I still don't think RTW will catch up with it. BTW - what do you think of her new song? I think its a bit crass really (but I didn't dare say that on the 'predict' thread - although I did say - quite correctly - that it'll go to number 1) I think 99% of Buzzjack would love anything she did. I'd really like her not to get to number one though ... the song is truly average. I think its the link with Akon that does it for me ... I can't stand Akon!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 16th September 2008, 09:00 PM

i dont mind the song funny thing with leona is i dont mind her but my faveourite song of hers is better in time the only one of her 3 singles not to get to number 1,,,the new single will prob get number 1 with ease and i wudnt be at all surprised if her album goes back to number 1 when the new edition is released to

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 16th September 2008, 09:53 PM

Expect a bit of a huge drop tomorrow (iTunes has been frozen for at least the last 30 hours). So although RTW is still showing as 36 - it is more likely in the 70's or 80's by now!

Norma

(Still on course for inside the top 75 this Sunday though)

And back to the months thing ... let's make sure January wins - I'm around for about the next 20 minutes!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 16th September 2008, 09:59 PM

yes im all for the months winning and also once rule the world is top 75 im happywith that

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 17th September 2008, 10:49 AM

Mid-weeks show it is still top 30's. If they can just hang on long enough to drop no lower than 40 ... just for a mention on the chart show (I don't mind if they don't play it - as we'll have the new stuff soon) as long as it gets a mention!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 17th September 2008, 10:01 PM

YA i agree plus th echart show might even play it which would be of no harm either

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 17th September 2008, 10:27 PM

Almost Thursday and it has only dropped to 40 on iTunes! Looking good for a top 40 place on Sunday!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 17th September 2008, 10:36 PM

brilliant stuff i so hope it can hold on

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 18th September 2008, 01:12 PM

Dropped only 4 to 44 on iTunes now.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 18th September 2008, 02:35 PM

still top 30 in thursdays midweek update-

Posted by: Nick F1 19th September 2008, 10:53 PM

total sales for Rule The World Is : 508,845 copies = great sales!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 20th September 2008, 12:27 AM

thats brilliant sales which means it will sell well over half a million by the time it stops sellig or end up close to 600,000

in ireland rule the world has re entered the charts here this week at number 49 and its 23rd week on the top 50 here

its top 40 in todays uk midweeks also

Posted by: Nick F1 21st September 2008, 02:40 PM

Rule The World is Re-Entry in UK Top 40

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 21st September 2008, 02:44 PM

what number do u know??

Posted by: Nick F1 21st September 2008, 02:48 PM

not yet.

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 21st September 2008, 02:52 PM

Im just so happy its back in the top 40 as its chart run has been amazing

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 21st September 2008, 03:25 PM

Rule the world is number 34 this week up 24 places

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 24th September 2008, 11:01 AM

RTW still hanging on in there in the download chart - up from mid 60's yesterday to 57 today! I know it won't make much difference but according to Mart!n, it is still set to be inside the 60 come Sunday. And you never know .... it may get an X-Factor boost this weekend!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 24th September 2008, 11:15 AM

Top 60 would still be great as the song is within the top 75 for 45 weeks now and even longer top 100,,so all these weeks are bonuses and they help bring their total of weeks spent on chart well up in the guinness book of recorsd although they are way down the list

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 25th September 2008, 06:38 PM

Mid 60's now on iTunes. At least their X Factor boost lasts longer than most - Leon is totally out of the iTunes 120 now! I don't think he'll be troubling the top 40 on Sunday and with a bit of luck Take That may still be inside the top 60 proper.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 25th September 2008, 11:22 PM

i had a feeling leon would disapear rapidly this week,,,i can see take that been around 53 or 54

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 26th September 2008, 09:59 AM

What do you think of Leon's new single? Hardly a trailblazer is it?

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 26th September 2008, 04:12 PM

its disappointing but i wasnt expecting much tp be honest

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 27th September 2008, 08:12 AM

RTW still hangin on there in the 60's. It has wombled between 67 and 69 all yesterday. Its at 68 now!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 28th September 2008, 01:23 PM

not to long to wait and see what its offical position is today??

Posted by: designer_label 28th September 2008, 04:40 PM

It was really high up on ITUNES the other week - thats why I downloaded it lol

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 28th September 2008, 05:33 PM

Its back in the 50's on iTunes at the moment so I can see it making a couple more weeks inside the top 75. Would be great if they could make it a calendar year!

Norma

Posted by: Nick F1 28th September 2008, 07:48 PM

#66 this week in UK.

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 28th September 2008, 08:33 PM

Not bad at all! I think we all knew it was in for a bit of a drop ... and its still top 75. Maybe after tonight's X Factor it'll stay another week or two.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 28th September 2008, 09:32 PM

that is quite good and the x facrtor using it agan will help it claim its 11 month top 75

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 29th September 2008, 06:20 AM

Up to 38 on iTunes. I think it may finally have used up all of its X-Factor favours this week though!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 29th September 2008, 02:45 PM

38 is still a nice jumop and possibly/probably enough to ensure it stays top 75 again this week

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 29th September 2008, 07:26 PM

Slipped to 40 at the latest update (via 39). Still bloody good going though!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 29th September 2008, 10:14 PM

tomorrows midweeks will give a good indication also

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 30th September 2008, 12:01 PM

rtw is top 40 in todays midweeks

Posted by: designer_label 30th September 2008, 08:37 PM

Come on guys - buy it again! lol

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 30th September 2008, 08:54 PM

Mid 40's on iTunes right now ...

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 30th September 2008, 09:28 PM

im so happy it climbing again plenty of life left in this track yet

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 1st October 2008, 06:43 AM

Dropped into the 50's now. To be expected I suppose. I see it being mid 70's on iTunes by the end of the week and come Sunday's chart it may be inside the top 50 but more realistically inside the 60. Remember - Leon had a huge boost on iTunes last week but he fell so much after the surge that he only ended up a re-entry at 93 when mid-week predicted he would be top 40.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 1st October 2008, 02:44 PM

its still to p40 in todays midweek update though so thats positiove

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 3rd October 2008, 08:18 AM

Dropped quite considerably on iTunes though (despite a brief rise yesterday). Should be safely inside the 50 in the proper chart on Sunday though (higher if it is played somewhere on Saturday).

On another matter if you get the chance - BBC3 on Saturday, 9.15 pm - second half of the 100 most annoying pop moments. I think Take That are in there somewhere and Robbie is somewhere quite near the top of the list!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 3rd October 2008, 12:32 PM

its again top 40 in todays (friday) midweek update

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 3rd October 2008, 08:30 PM

boyzone are only new at number 6 in ireland this week not what they expected i bet

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 5th October 2008, 06:13 PM

boyzone new at number 5 in the uk im sure they are very disappointed

full top 75 isnt in yet but take that arent top 40 although i have a funny feeling they are number 41

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 5th October 2008, 06:22 PM

Good. Serves them right for saying something idiotic like Westlife are better than Take That. Hopefully they'll drop like a stone next week.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 5th October 2008, 10:28 PM

i can see them dropping a bit and def out of the top 10 next week,now it will be interestinng to see how the album fares

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 6th October 2008, 09:23 PM

Boyzone still at 10 on iTunes. I saw the video again today as I was hoovering! If that was a sample of the dancing they did on this tour ... then the audience must have been truly riveted! Take That are ten years older than these fellas and yet have more energy in them than 21 year-olds!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 7th October 2008, 09:18 AM

i predict number 11 for boyzone this week

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 7th October 2008, 10:13 AM

I think they'll still be inside top 10 in the Sunday chart then after that it'll drop right out of the top 20. I doubt it'll hang round the top 75 for more than 10 weeks in total.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 7th October 2008, 06:02 PM

its number 12 in todays midweeks so its hard to tell but tomorrows midweeks will give a goo dindication,,,the album hanst a hope n hell of going number 1 and i can see it shifting in or around 300,000 which would be about 1 million less than take that graetest hits

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 19th October 2008, 08:56 PM

rule the world falls 11 places to number 68 this week,it could be its last week top 75 for now

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 26th October 2008, 09:39 PM

Rule the world has left the top 75 this week sadly

Posted by: designer_label 26th October 2008, 10:02 PM

noooooooooooooo

love that song

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 26th October 2008, 10:35 PM

it has done brilliantly though so we cant complain but im sure we will see it re enter again some other time

Posted by: designer_label 26th October 2008, 10:45 PM

Probably when the new album is out

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 26th October 2008, 10:51 PM

ya probably or hopefully someone on x factor will try and sing it which will help it re chart

Posted by: designer_label 26th October 2008, 11:24 PM

Oh yes that could happen! Lets hope they dont murder it though!!!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 27th October 2008, 12:02 AM

yes and that will prob happen anyhow

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 2nd November 2008, 08:26 PM

Rule The World re enters the chart at number 71 this week,,its now its 47th week in the top 75

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 9th November 2008, 09:09 PM

rule the world is on the climb again this week up 4 places to number 67,,,i thiink in time this song will def get platinum status of 600,000 sales

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 9th November 2008, 10:56 PM

Saw it! And am suitably impressed!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 10th November 2008, 01:13 AM

i wonder what has caused the sales surge again

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 10th November 2008, 10:54 PM

I think it was played on You've Been Framed or something like that last Saturday. It is still holding up well on iTunes (funnily enough - it is now about 15 places ahead of the Boyzone single).

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 11th November 2008, 09:50 AM

its no surprise its ahead of boyzone,,over alli dont think the boyzone comeback in terms of music sales has been all that successfull

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 17th November 2008, 12:12 AM

rule the world moves up 12 places to number 55 now,,,and with it being take that week on x factor i think this song could well go top 40 again sunday week if someones performs it,,rule the world has stayed in the top 100 for almost a year and most of that has been in the top 75 its success its ssimply brilliant and for me its classic take that song and will forever be in my top 3 take that songs and probably my number 1

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 22nd November 2008, 09:04 PM

rule the world may be top 40 again after x factor ,,it will be interesting to see what affect x factor will have on the older songs

Posted by: designer_label 22nd November 2008, 09:08 PM

Yep after today I can see a lot of Take That songs be downloaded on ITUNES!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 22nd November 2008, 09:10 PM

thats what im hoping although what i cant wait for is to see which of the old songs

a million love songs
relight my fire
never forget
love aint here anymore

will get the lost downloads

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 23rd November 2008, 07:55 PM

rule the world is number 46 this week and beautiful world and the ultimate collection are both back in the top 75 and x factor performance will kick in more this week,,should be a great take that chart next week!

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 23rd November 2008, 08:10 PM

There's only one word for all this! Great. It could turn into a Greatest Week for Take That!

Norma

Posted by: locott 23rd November 2008, 08:21 PM

Could the boys sell 100K+ of the new single, what do you think?

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 23rd November 2008, 08:42 PM

Do you mean in first week? I'm not too certain about that.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 23rd November 2008, 09:29 PM

I'm patient - I can wait to get my physical copy on my day off - Friday!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 24th November 2008, 04:36 PM

Sleepwalking could easily make a chart appearance also come sunday

Posted by: designer_label 25th November 2008, 01:05 AM

How exciting!!!!!!!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 25th November 2008, 02:11 AM

lets hope it does,,didnt a leona lewis b side make the top 40 once i think?

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 25th November 2008, 06:39 PM

Tuesdays midweeks see;s rule the world back in the top 30

never forget and patience also also top 50

beautiful world is top 70 and no update on ultimate collection yet but that means its not top 75 which was the album i expected to climb a nice but this week

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 25th November 2008, 07:04 PM

When I looked on iTunes Album chart yesterday ... Beautiful World was at number 11 (or 10) and Greatest Hits (but not Ultimate Collection) was 24.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 25th November 2008, 08:30 PM

i hope they rise in tomorrows midweeks

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 25th November 2008, 08:59 PM

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 25th November 2008, 09:05 PM

jsut send me that pm with your faves before you change if you can and il start it up,,,

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 25th November 2008, 10:12 PM

I'll send you that tomorrow! I need to have a think of which Beatles, ELO and Level 42 songs I like best ... then I'll have to seek out two other artists - probably Stevie Wonder and I've got a feeling Coldplay's Viva La Vida is going to make up the five! I've played that song about 12 times today on the way to work and back!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 26th November 2008, 03:18 AM

i love the viva la viva song and im a huge coldplay fan the latest album is good but not near as good as their previous 2

Posted by: designer_label 28th November 2008, 11:44 PM

I dont know - problem is people want RTW on a CD album of theres but its not on any is it apart from the special edition of BW that is rare to find?

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 28th November 2008, 11:45 PM

ya the deluxe edition wa slimited release,its great in a way as it keeps rule the world getting sales

Posted by: designer_label 28th November 2008, 11:47 PM

Yea but bad in another way as people might not buy the album without it on

BW is like £3.95 on HMV - thats well good price!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 28th November 2008, 11:47 PM

the album is still selling and has been rugulary on the chart and its sales are already amazing and well past 2 million

Posted by: designer_label 28th November 2008, 11:48 PM

Thats really good although if everyone has it it will be hard to sell much more

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 28th November 2008, 11:51 PM

it will prob get another sales boost next week with the circus getting its uk release people will pick up a copy for cheao when buying the new album

Posted by: designer_label 28th November 2008, 11:52 PM

I can see somewhere like TESCO doing an offer like get BW for £1 when you buy the new album...they did that with Madonna but it was free!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 28th November 2008, 11:55 PM

ya and i think hmv may do it also

Posted by: designer_label 29th November 2008, 12:01 AM

I need Take That and Party on CD - I only have it on tape haha - they should let me have that free when I buy the new album!!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 29th November 2008, 12:06 AM

Posted by: designer_label 29th November 2008, 07:15 PM

People online keep saying they have the link to download the new album - I hate that its leaked!!!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 29th November 2008, 07:16 PM

well every album gets leaked these days so it afects everyone

Posted by: Joi-C 30th November 2008, 01:37 PM

I was actually very happy it leaked. I've been enjoying the album since wednesday evening and walking on air ever since.
And not to worry; I bought the deluxe version on friday.

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 30th November 2008, 01:49 PM

I'm still patiently waiting for mine to arrive from Amazon! I did buy the single yesterday though! And I have to admit ... I've been playing the 'b' side 'Sleepwalking' more than Greatest Day!

Norma

Posted by: designer_label 30th November 2008, 02:17 PM

The deluxe has a book with it too right?

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 30th November 2008, 02:20 PM

Yes it does ... with some bloody fabulous pictures in it apparently!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 30th November 2008, 02:28 PM

im sure later on down the road we will get another deluxe edition a bit like what happened with beautiful world

Posted by: Joi-C 30th November 2008, 03:31 PM

The deluxe version also has Here on it. The normal version doesn't. But then again Here is on the single (at least the one I have)

Posted by: IrisAlbastru 30th November 2008, 03:37 PM

I bought the deluxe version. Very nice artwork! The writting is a little bit difficult to read, as is white on blue sometimes. You will ask also yourself who is Bob .

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 30th November 2008, 03:39 PM

I bought the regular version as i will wait for the next deluxe edition!!!

fingers crossed we have 2 take that songs top 30 today in the chart,possibly 4 top 75 1 album top 40 and another within the top 75

Im still getting over how successful there whole comeback has been - I mean since 2005/6

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 30th November 2008, 11:04 PM

ya it really has been huge in every aspect as they tours the albums and the singles hav ebeen huge,,the press is 100% positive they have gained a whole new audience as well as the audience they had and they are so in demand

Posted by: designer_label 30th November 2008, 11:05 PM

And people actually respect them unlike they do with most boybands - like westlife for example yes they are popular but they do get teased alot

TT never do

the circus #1 sales 432 K

#10 YTD chart !

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 8th December 2008, 06:41 PM

it will easily pass a million by year end

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 8th December 2008, 07:27 PM

I think we'll have a better idea of that by the mid-weeks - but I really have a bad feeling that their journey to the million mark is going to be as slow as Coldplay's was! Don't tell Locott that though - he already thinks I'm a harbinger of doom and gloom! I can't help it .... I'm a Capricorn ... we're notoriously miserable!

Norma

Posted by: locott 8th December 2008, 07:45 PM

LOl, Norma! This time i have to agree with you though. I for one thought they could at least beat Coldplay and become the 2nd bestselling band of all time but it never happened. Mind you, those sales figures still look tremendous but i still slightly gutted.
Besides, it looks like yesterday's show hasn't had an impact yet..not on Itunes as Greatest Day is only at 3d place at the moment.

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 8th December 2008, 08:33 PM

It would be comforting to think that the 'stock' problem earlier last week may have affected the sales but I doubt that would account for more than 25,000 so they still wouldn't have snuck up in second place behind Oasis for that record! Would have been nice ... two north-west, working class bands in 1st and 2nd! But it wasn't to be. I'm so disappointed with the impact of the show last night (or lack of it) on iTunes. Especially as Britney 'Mimes 'R Us' Spears will move in front of them by tomorrow after Harry Hill is seen in his (rather fetching I must admit) blond wig in the repeat of his show tonight!

We can take consolation in that The Circus beats Circus hands-down ... but I do fear for that '1,000,000 by Christmas' hope!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 9th December 2008, 10:46 PM

yes it would have nice for the album to be top 2 but they have done in credibly well and the album looks set to be a huge seller again this week after this week it has 2 more weeks left of sales and im sure it will pass the million mark by year end

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 12th December 2008, 01:15 PM

Beautful world is number 30

Greatest Day holding well on week 6 and still top 10 at number 10

And the brilliant rule the world is climbing again and now number 45(has to be very near platnum 600,000 now??)

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 4th January 2009, 08:23 PM

The BW position was a nice surprise!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 4th January 2009, 09:07 PM

ya its great i know its prob due to sales prices and likewise with girls aloud greatets hits but im sure its at least another 10,000 to add to beautiful world total sales,i hope we get the sale stomorrow in the sales report likewise im looking forward to seeing the circus sales which im expecting to be alot lot lower than the last 4 weeks

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 4th January 2009, 09:39 PM

I expect to see sales for The Circus as low as 40K to be honest ... it was really low midweek for all artists - singles and albums!

Sales will pick up once they've released the next single (assuming it is Up All Night) if it is any other song - I think sales may very well come to a standstill!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 4th January 2009, 11:11 PM

didnt they sell 10,000 on tuesdays midweeks??going by that it should be around 60,000 overall but as i said i wont be shocked if the sales are low and we cant complain really as even as it stands the album has sold very well

they would be crazy not to release up all night as the 2nd single,,if it is the 2nd singles the album will fly well past 2 million with ease

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 4th January 2009, 11:19 PM

I think on the Tuesday mid-week (which actually arrived later but was taken to be to close of play Monday) it was actually about 16K - quite a drop from the previous week's sales - but in general ALL sales were low. I can see the second single (again if it is UAN) putting at least another 100,000 on the sales of the album. I know there is another song on there that you seem to like ... but if they release that one it would have dire results. Just as ... as much as I love the track 'The Circus' - to release that as a single would be suicide also.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 4th January 2009, 11:22 PM

i completly agree about what you are saying yes i adore the song but i dont think its single material but again you never know for example my girlfriend adores julie she thinks its the best song on the album my sister likewise has the album she finds julie boring

my daughter loves up all night,my niece doesnt like it all and my sisters partner thinks julie greatest day and up all night are the best tracks on the album

it really shows how tastes differ

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 5th January 2009, 04:55 PM

You see you and Iris are the only people (apart from a load of Mark fans on the Take That official site) that like Julie. Everyone else I know hates it and thinks it and What Is Love really let down an otherwise pretty splendid album. If they release it as a single ... I certainly won't buy it - I'll see if the b side is any good and then download that one separately.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 6th January 2009, 03:03 PM

the song went down well on the take that come to town show and some of the album reviews i have read also like julie,again i agree it probably wouldnt make a great single but its a brilliant album track

Anyhow the circus is number 2 in the midweeks with kings of leon pulling ahead and beautiful world is still top 30

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 6th January 2009, 04:33 PM

My little boy said to me today 'mum ... I hope you don't mind, but apart from She Said and Greatest Day ... I don't like Take That's new album'. I said 'that's ok love' before dropping him off at the bus stop to make his own way home!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 7th January 2009, 04:26 PM

again it really shows hoew the tastes vaery but i think its great that differnt people like different songs that way it shows the album has diversity

in todays midweeks the circus is still number 2 and 2,000 sales behind kings of leon and beautiful world is still top 30

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 10th January 2009, 04:00 PM

Ireland Chart Positions for this week

The Circus falls 3 places to number 4
Ultimate Collection climbs 25 places to number 46
Beautiful World climbs 33 places to number 51

Greatest Day Down 3 places to number 10
Rule The World falls 4 places to number 50

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 10th January 2009, 04:27 PM

I think Take That have been very fortunate with the chart position with Greatest Day. I mean I suppose it was expected to make the number 1 ... even for one week, but I'm surprised it has stuck around for as long as it has.

Still ... Up All Night will make things better when that is released! I swear though Pete - if they release Julie ... I'm seriously going to lose faith in them!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 10th January 2009, 04:30 PM

greatest day has done alot better than i thought sales are near 300,000 and it has plenty of sales left in yet

julie is growing and growing on me and i i know you hate it but im starting to feel to could do very well as a single,it really is a lovely song

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 10th January 2009, 04:37 PM

No, the more I hear Julie the more I hate it. It just sounds so amateurish - it could have been written by a spotty, love-lorn sixth-former with an incredibly awful feel for lyrics. We were watching Take That Comes To Town last night and even my husband commented how awful it is. Its those 'sha la la's. If they release it as a single - they may as well sign their own death warrants as an act now.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 10th January 2009, 04:40 PM

well its debatabale as for everyone who hates it there is someone who loves it

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 10th January 2009, 04:43 PM

Unfortunately this is true! Mind you ... I suppose as Gary seemed to take all the flack for the failure of IWFL ... maybe it would be justice for Mark to see that he too can have a Take That flop!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 10th January 2009, 04:46 PM

julie is alot better than id wait for life its alot better i think

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 10th January 2009, 04:48 PM

Not much though! And as IWFL was bloody awful that really isn't saying much!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 10th January 2009, 04:49 PM

alot id say alot lot better

RTW has dropped to the 50's. A bad week really!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 11th January 2009, 07:18 PM

well considering the sales that is behind each release so far i think they are all holding up very very well

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 11th January 2009, 08:13 PM

Also in Music Week I note that NF the Ultimate Collection is tops in the 'catalogue' albums - compilations of best of by one artist.

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 11th January 2009, 08:18 PM

id love to know its total sales now as its been selling the whole way through

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 11th January 2009, 08:28 PM

I think I'm beginning to go off Take That a bit now. I don't play them nearly as much in the car. I've started playing my Beatles & ELO CD's lately ... my Maroon 5 Songs About Jane has been on almost constantly too. Even the iPod my husband got me for Christmas has not one Take That song on! He loaded Beatles, ELO, Stranglers, Beautiful South ... and I wasn't even angry that he hadn't put a solitary TT song on!

I think my only true musical love (which has never waned in over 30 years) is Jeff Lynne & ELO!

I'm just wondering how much I could get for my Circus Tour tickets now! I think I'm going to go and do some research! The Saturday one is seated (and bloody good seats too!)

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 11th January 2009, 08:30 PM

You probably over done on Take That i find if i ever listen to someone too much i go off them for a while,,i have very varied music taste so im always rotating plus i always have mixed cd;s aswell so i dont over listen to anyone,,im enjoying the music hugely at the moment by take that

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 11th January 2009, 08:33 PM

It was my 50th today so I think I'm way too old for liking them now. I think I may buy a Montavani or Matt Monroe album! I may even buy a Robbie Swing album - I think my age group is more for that kind of thing!

Norma

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 11th January 2009, 09:09 PM

roswing music is what i hate the most i would hate of i got a swing cd happy birthday day though really hope you have agreat time,,life begins at 50 is what they say

Posted by: Rule The World 23rd January 2009, 10:01 PM

the circus is numbe r12 in the latest midweeks,album sales are so low all round so things wont pick up til the brits and up all night hits the radio

Posted by: Rule The World 23rd January 2009, 10:06 PM

In Ireland this week greatest day falls 8 places to number 19 and the circus falls 5 places to number 12

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 23rd January 2009, 10:08 PM

Not bad falls to be honest. UAN should see the album rise a lot (even though we'll have to wait until March to see it). I'm not too concerned about Greatest Day ... it has run its course and I don't mind if it disappears altogether now if I'm honest!

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 23rd January 2009, 10:11 PM

i agree greatest day has done great and has been a number 1 hit so we cant complain,the album should get a boost from the brit awards also and once up all night goes to radio the album will pick up again

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 23rd January 2009, 10:14 PM

Greatest Day did it's bit. We all know it wasn't the best song on the album ... but we all knew that no matter what ... the first single would sell well ... so lets hold back some of the best in reserve .... like Up All Night!

They're going fine ... I'm starting to renew my faith in them!

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 23rd January 2009, 10:16 PM

I NEVER LOST MY FAITH IN THEM!!!I READ somewhere in the last few days and i cant remember where i read it but jason said greatest day is his least faveourite song on the album

Posted by: Rule The World 25th January 2009, 07:43 PM

UK THIS WEEK

Greatest Day drops 13 places to number 40
Rule the world falls 6 places to number 69(charted for 3 seperate years now)woohoooooo

The Circus drops 9 places to number 15
Beautiful world drops 1 place to number 46

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 25th January 2009, 07:48 PM

That's great ... to be perfectly honest ... I'm surprised GD is still in the top 40 so it has done far better than I thought it would ever do! Good that RTW is still inside the top 75. Great album position for BW too! As you've said in the other thread ... The Circus will rise after The Brits, whether they win anything or not!

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 25th January 2009, 10:58 PM

but been honest im not worried about the circus as it has sold amazingly well so far and anything else is just a bonus and i think it probably has about another million sales left in yet.....the circus so far has more than any of their old albums and they are still deemed as very successful albums,,

the great thing is really that Take That have now released 5 studio albums and 2 offical greatest hits and all 7 albums have been a massive success as have most of their singles and they are definitly a band that will be remembered for many years to come

Posted by: Rule The World 1st February 2009, 07:03 PM

So far the only positions we know are

The Circus drops just 4 places to number 19

Posted by: Rule The World 1st February 2009, 07:20 PM

We have all the positioons now

Greatest Day falls 7 places to number 47
Rule the world drops just 2 places to number 71 (60th week top 75)

The Circus drops 4 places to number 19
Beautiful world drops 1 place to number 47

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 1st February 2009, 07:32 PM

RTW still in the top 75 and Beautiful World has only dropped one place in the album chart (to 47).

I've just been watching the Corrie omnibus edition and they were playing Up All Night on the jukebox!

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 1st February 2009, 09:00 PM

i hope rule the world can stay on again next week

good that corrie has good music in the backround as it needs something good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 1st February 2009, 09:32 PM

Well Corrie has been good enough to beat EE in the ratings these last few weeks. Deservedly so too! Pete I can't believe you like EE as much as you do ... its dreadful! Although Janine is a welcome return - they should really kill off Dot though ... she's had her day. She was awful in it to begin with.

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 1st February 2009, 09:35 PM

Overall including repeats eastenders is actually beating coronation street,,,,eastenders is the best soap on the box it has great ratings and wins lots of awards

Posted by: Rule The World 3rd February 2009, 06:55 PM

in todays midweeks the circus is number 20 down just 1 place

Good week In Ireland This week

Greatest Day drops 11 places to number 41

The Circus climbs 3 places to number 10

Beautiful world climbs 2 places to number 68(103rd week on the chart)

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 7th February 2009, 11:03 AM

That's not bad going at all!

I'm glad UAN seems to be holding back on the download front (the fans seem to be waiting for the physical release to coincide with it). Although as the physical sales seem to make little difference ... I can't see it changing much. I still think it'll be top 5 (and hopefully be a 'stayer' unlike Greatest Day) but all hope has faded now of a number one.

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 7th February 2009, 10:12 PM

i wouldnt rule number 1 completly out yet although looking on the hmv website up all night is priced at £3.49 while alot of other singles are £0.99 and £1.99

Posted by: IrisAlbastru 7th February 2009, 11:58 PM

Well, as the most of the chart is made from downloads and only the hard fans buy the CD, i think they have chances to be top 3.

Speaking of CD, does anyone want to swap CDs? I want badly the "Up all night" one, but if i buy through amazon it won't count to the charts. I will offer a CD with "The Garden" instead, wenn it cames out on 20th march .

Posted by: Rule The World 8th February 2009, 04:18 AM

i was gonna buy of hmv online would you not be able to use that as that counts towards the charts i think?

Posted by: IrisAlbastru 8th February 2009, 09:41 AM

As i know the downloads and buyers from outside UK also when they buy from UK online seller don't count to the charts.

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 8th February 2009, 10:44 AM

I'll buy one and send it to you when it comes out if you like Iris! And you can do vice-versa when The Garden is out in Germany.

Norma

Posted by: IrisAlbastru 8th February 2009, 11:30 AM

Wow, thank you Norma!

Posted by: Rule The World 8th February 2009, 06:15 PM

so when i buy from hmv online does that not count to any chart? APART from the hmv chart?

Posted by: Rule The World 8th February 2009, 07:11 PM

UK THIS WEEK

Greatest Dat down 4 places to number 51
Rule the world up 2 places to number 69
Up All night new at number 72.

the circus drops 5 places to number 24
beautiful world drops 2 places to number 49

Posted by: IrisAlbastru 8th February 2009, 10:06 PM

Sad to say, but from what i know, only what is sell in UK is in UK charts (and they know that very easily from the address they delivering to). It is very complicated, mind you, perhaps they changed the rules...

Posted by: Rule The World 8th February 2009, 10:12 PM

well if they work it that way all the cd's i have been buying from hmv will have counted towards the irish charts,i never knew that before

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 9th February 2009, 08:26 PM

Well I'm not paying £3.49 for it unless it has a truly fantastic 'bonus' track ... preferably two for that price! Iris - I'll still get yours for the swap! If I can download the bonus track or 'b' side for 79p I'll do that. I'm afraid they're not even going to make the top 10 playing these silly games! And to be honest ... they deserve a kick up the backside for this.

I think that price is absolutely extortionate.

Posted by: Rule The World 9th February 2009, 11:51 PM

hmv may reduce that when it gets its release but up all night wil def def definitly go top 10

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 10th February 2009, 07:52 AM

I've been told that the £3.49 is just the pre-order price, it should end up retailing at £1.99! It still had better have a great bonus track though!

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 10th February 2009, 10:42 AM

im sure it will overall they do great b sides

Beautiful world drops 9 places to number 77

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 16th February 2009, 08:00 AM

Up All Night though, continues to plummet in the download chart! Gary Go on the other hand is doing really well ... he's already gone past them! Deserves it ... good song and a good video. At the rate UAN is going ... RTW will pass it soon on iTunes! This could be quite a disastrous flop for them ... I still don't think it'll make the top 10 when the physical comes out. They're on Ant & Dec on Saturday but after that they've got nothing lined up (by way of a group) in promotion for the song. Gary is on GMTV on Monday - but it'll be to talk more about the Kili climb. After that they can't do anything as a foursome until he gets back - earliest 9th March.

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 16th February 2009, 11:32 AM

dont be so negative,up all night will do well,gary go is getting alot of hype at the mo so of course he is doing better plus his song is not from a 1.5 million selling album

Posted by: Rule The World 22nd February 2009, 05:03 PM

Up all night climbs 22 places to number 37 this weeks and has now equaled id wait for life as in weeks spent on the chart

Posted by: Rule The World 22nd February 2009, 08:20 PM

overall im very happy with this weeks uk positions

up all night up 22 places to number 37
greatest day up 10 places to number 52
rule the world down 1 place to number 72

the circus up 1 place to number 16
beautiful world 4 places to number 52
ultimate collection down 4 places to number 61

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 22nd February 2009, 11:06 PM

I'm shocked that Up All Night has gone all the way up to number 15 on iTunes! Nothing at all had happened up to this morning - it was still a measley 37. Then when I got back tonight I saw it had several jumps.

Poor Gary Go has gone down though! Hope he'll go up again after today's chart show.

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 22nd February 2009, 11:33 PM

the effects of sat night take away would have kicked in last night and today,watch it rise even more now the pyhiscal is out 2m and them on this morning also,,i told you it would rise

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 23rd February 2009, 07:16 PM

Gary wasn't promoting it this morning though ... the chat was just about Comic Relief. They showed about a 15 second clip of it on the Paul O'Grady show though.

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 24th February 2009, 08:46 AM

well we will find out today where it lies in the mid weeks which will give a good indication of what will be its peak position

Posted by: Rule The World 24th February 2009, 11:08 AM

number 17 in the midweeks

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 24th February 2009, 05:41 PM

It's hovering at about 15 in the iTunes chart (actually dropped but then went back up one). It won't repeat IWFL - but I still doubt it'll make top 10. I think even you're beginning to doubt it now Peter aren't you? I'm actually going on U2's performance. They were about the same position as Take That on iTunes (actually a bit higher) and were also the number one act in physical sales - yet it still wasn't enough to dent the top 10.

Norma

Posted by: Renee98 24th February 2009, 08:03 PM

I'm still hoping for a miracle - top 10 would be nice. Do you think it is because of the release date? too many people already have the song? not enough promo? people don't like the song? I just don't understand. It's my favorite...so much better than Greatest Day.

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 24th February 2009, 08:49 PM

It appears to be one of those songs that you either love or hate - while Greatest Day was more of a song that really people felt indifferent about. Many things contributing to it not getting a high placing ... the sales of the album, dreadful timing of the release which has resulted in precious little promotion. Gary has been tied up with this Comic Relief thing which he seems to be more excited about than the promotion of the single. For instance he's been on three shows in the last couple of days and hasn't even spoken about the song ... it was all about the Kilimanjaro climb. Also ... there are some good songs out there in competition - and one crap one that will get to number one because it is for the Comic Relief charity (so I doubt Take That are bothered about that). Shame that it won't be a bigger hit than it should be. Apart from the hidden track on The Circus, Up All Night is my favourite song.

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 24th February 2009, 09:17 PM

well when i read the midweeks today i was disappointed as i thought it was out on phyisical this week but its not out until monday so i think im happy with its position now as its download only

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 24th February 2009, 09:20 PM

I must remember to get Iris her copy of it and put it in the post! Pete ... remind me next Sunday / Monday will you? I'm probably not going to buy the physical myself - I'm not too keen on the B side (even though everyone on the Take That forum is raving about it ... its pretty average sounding to me - mind you ... I've only heard 30 seconds of it! )

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 24th February 2009, 09:24 PM

for me the phyisical will cost me about e10 to get as i have to buy cd singles online and they are all from the uk,i will have downloaded it as i want to support it but my download onloy counts to the irish chart which isnt that important overall,i will try and remind you of that on sunday but im so forgetful half thetime its frightening!!

i hope up all night makes top 15 even on sunday and the phyisical will see it top 10 i still remain confident of a top 10 hit,,the circus is climbing though its number 11 in the midweeks so that quite good as it will prob be back in the top 10 again soon

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 25th February 2009, 10:13 PM

The Circus is number 7 in the midweeks now!

Norma

ya its great seeing the album rise it was number 11 in yesterdays midweeks,,maybe it could go top 5 again come sunday,up all night is still number 17

Posted by: Rule The World 26th February 2009, 04:09 PM

circus still top 10 in the midweeks while up all night is still number 17 ihave never known any song to hold the exact same position in all the midweeks before,in the top 3 yes but never a top 20 position

Posted by: Rule The World 27th February 2009, 11:13 PM

Up all night still number 17 in todays midweeks while the circus is number 7 , here in IRELAND up all night makes its chart debut at number 29

Posted by: Rule The World 1st March 2009, 07:49 PM

Yet again its quite a good week for Take That in the charts

Up all night up 20 places to number 17
Greatest Day non mover at number 52
Rule The World drops just 1 place to number 73(this chart run amazes me yet)

The Circus climbs 8 places to number 8
Beautiful World drops 3 places to number 55
Ultimate Collections climbs 3 places to number 58

Im very happy overall with the positions and greatest day now has a fairly respectable chart run still next week im hoping to be seeing UP ALL NIGHT becoming their 18th top 10 hit even happier if it was their 16th top 5/3 hit and even more delighted if it became their 12th number 1

Number 12 in todays midweeks and if things are like last week it may well stay there as up al lnight remained at number 17 in every update last week plus it was offically number 17 on sunday....i am still hoping it can go top 10 though

Posted by: Rule The World 3rd March 2009, 12:16 PM

So far from midweeks we know

Up all nigt #12
The Circus number 8

Well we can safely say it won't make the top 10 now! It isn't even number 1 on physicals - I could understand The Saturdays being number 1 on physicals ... but Will Young is actually ahead of Take That on the physical front. Maybe they should quietly retire after the next tour!

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 3rd March 2009, 08:08 PM

Will young has a limited release of 5,000 pyisical copies so his fans will have rushed out to make sure they get there copy..again i say please have faith in take that they are one of the biggest acts around right now sell out tours and huge selling albums and retire quetly is mentioned i really think things should be taking into perspective,and number 12 isnt brilliant but its hardly number 100

Posted by: IrisAlbastru 4th March 2009, 07:23 PM

Better as i thought for TT in Germany. In today-newpapers is written that they sold over 100000 lbums (gold). I think that if they will do well with the Garden, that will improve also the album sales.

I will buy the single for me only if it is a new b-side.

Norma there are two version of the single. One is 2-track with 84. For the second i don't know at the moment. When it will be known, you have to tell me which one you will like to have. I still hope they will have a new b-side on it.

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 4th March 2009, 08:02 PM

Iris - I'll wait and see what the other option is. I really don't like 84 - so I'd rather not have that one.

I got your single today and I'm bubble-wrapping it tonight and posting it tomorrow. You should get it pretty quickly. I posted something to Pete in Ireland a while back and I think it took less than a week (airmail) but I think the post to mainland Europe is a bit quicker.

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 4th March 2009, 08:15 PM

Post sometimes takes aweek from the uk to ireland and sometime sfaster but i do think its fatser to other places like germany for example

I notice up all night is still number 12 in th emidweeks todays and i was surprised to see the saturdays no longer number 1,to think about 5 weeks ago we said the saturdays would probably beat take that to number 1,,who thpough flo rida may beat both

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 4th March 2009, 08:32 PM

I haven't even heard this Flo Rida song so I can't comment on it. Someone commented that they hadn't seen the Saturdays single in Tescos - and I went to our large Tescos in Wigan tonight ... and they weren't stocking it there either ... so maybe that is having an effect. I honestly can't see the point in charity songs when less than £1 of the £3.99 goes to the charity. I'd say ... tune in to Comic Relief on 13th March and donate money there ... or just do it at the bank or post office ... and then download the Depeche Mode version (even though I don't like that one either).

Norma

i must admot i love the depecmode version its fave of mine from the 80,s and like the girls aloud and sugababes cover of walk this way its waek and lacks backbone,,im all for charity singles but sometimes i wish more effort went into them,flo rida song is just as $h!t i must say

This weeks Irish Positions

Up All Night climbs 10 places to Number 19

The Circus climbs 2 places to Number 15
Ultimate Collection climbs 9 places to number 35
Beautiful World climbs 10 places to number 73

Disappointing in some area;s and a lot chirpier in others!!

Looks like up all night wont make the uk top 10 this week as its number 13 in the midweeks,fingers crossed it will do it next week

Posted by: SLF 7th March 2009, 09:37 PM

I think it might do a bit better next week what with Gary being back in the UK and them performing on Comic Relief.

I actually like the B track now I've heard it a few times but I'm peeved that online stores don't appear to be selling it yet as I like to get them together. Maybe I'm just being awkward as I know it's on the CD but I stopped buying single CDs a long time ago. All that would happen is it would get burned to my computer and then be a fancy looking coaster which seems like a waste. Unless it has extras or it's an album I really don't want the damn things everywhere.

Ah well. Think I might cheer myself up and get Kelly Clarkson's song. Only 29p at Amazon UK music store!

Posted by: Rule The World 7th March 2009, 10:04 PM

29P is for nothing but how do they manage to make profit from that is beyond me,,as for cd sisngles i love them and i miss being abale to be them whenever i like they are getting harder and harder to get which is a shame,,ya i really hope it can improve next weel andi hope comic releif performance can help it top 10

Posted by: Rule The World 8th March 2009, 05:44 PM

Up all night climbs 3 places to number 14 this week

The Circus climbs 1 place to number 7

Posted by: takethatrule 8th March 2009, 08:53 PM

does anyone no how many they have sold this week single and album?

thanks alot

Posted by: Rule The World 8th March 2009, 09:10 PM

we dont know sales yet but im sure we will get a sales update tomorrow(monday)
Full Uk positions for this week are

Up all Night up 3 places to number 14
Greatest day down 13 places to number 65(15th week)

The Circus up 1 places to number 7
Ultimate Collection up 7 places to number 51
Beautiful world down 7 places to number 62

From a rough sales estimate i was just thinking since Take That returned they surely are not far off havin sold 6 million albums in the UK in total???

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 8th March 2009, 11:16 PM

Can I just say that I think the quite awful video did very little to help this song?

Norma

Posted by: Rule The World 9th March 2009, 01:22 AM

The video didnt help to much as its not great but at the end of the day i love the song myself and it puts a smile on my face,the song will sell reasonably well and stick around for a few weeks,yes i would have loved a huge hit and maybe it will climb again next week, but on the other hand up all night has brought a bit of negativity to the forum that in a way i wish it was never released and take that fans had it as a hidden gem if you bought the album.

For me i love the circus album and im loving the choices of 2nd and 3rd singles and even if the graden flops i wont wprry too much as i have said before Take That are now considered a huge albums band and they are shifting albums quite well in huge numbers, the circus will go on to sell 2 million in the uk and not many bands can manage 2 consecutive albums that sell 2 million plus and eventually the ultimate collection will pass the 2 million mark as i think its near 1.8 million now and when that happens they will definitly be very high on the list of artists who managed 3 consecutive albums to sell 2 million plus each. Its facts like that that make me so proud of take that phase 2,also dvd sales and concert sales just show how massive take that phase 2 really is.

At this stage they have nothing to prove as they have done so much and for me i hope they continue on for quite a few years yet as they are still deleivering quallity albums,but if they do call it a day again after studio album 3 i will be quite happy having 6 great studio albums by them and 2 quality greatest hits packagaes by them.

Long live Take That!!!!!

Posted by: Rule The World 9th March 2009, 08:02 PM

Posted by: Rule The World 9th March 2009, 10:06 PM
