Meghan to somehow smash please! Already obsessed!

Posted by: mdh Feb 24 2017, 12:11 AM

Chainsmokers for #1, and Calvin for top 10 please

Also hoping Something Just Like This misses top 40 today so it can debut high next week.

Posted by: Cody Slayberry Feb 24 2017, 12:16 AM

Isn't SJLT only a promo single? If so then I doubt it will debut high

Posted by: JosephStyles Feb 24 2017, 12:17 AM

Playlisted by Capital already so that would suggest it's the second single from their album!

Posted by: omrimayo Feb 24 2017, 12:21 AM

Single in full power.

Posted by: Davidson Feb 24 2017, 12:22 AM

Is Calvin out?

It is not on Spotify.

Posted by: JosephStyles Feb 24 2017, 12:22 AM

Either out at 5am (midnight US time) or after a radio premiere in the morning!

Surprised the Stormzy remix is doing so well considering it's not even advertised on the iTunes front page, and the Calvin Frank song is and is climbing nowhere near as fast. Definitely going to push the Chainsmokers/Coldplay off #1 then

Posted by: Bjork Feb 24 2017, 09:32 AM

I have to say I'm disappointed with Ed not releasing 2 newies today, think it would have been a big achievement to have 5 songs in the top 5 :/

Posted by: mdh Feb 24 2017, 09:41 AM

Tbh I think he wouldn't have achieved that anyway. I can't see Something Just Like This missing the top 5 in any scenario.

true 5 out of 5 seems impossible
but maybe he could have achieved 5 songs in the top 10

Posted by: ML Hammer95 Feb 24 2017, 10:37 AM

So much good music dropping today!

Hope to see some more Stormzy album tracks rising. The Jason Derulo track is very addictive and I could actually see it being a hit (after thinking wtf on first listen). The Calvin Harris one sounds slick.

Oh m'lawwd. I guess SOY is #1 combined then, there goes The Chainsmokers' chances of a #1.

Posted by: Jonjo Feb 24 2017, 11:22 AM

Thank the Lord. There's plenty of things the world doesn't need right now and another Chainsmokers (or even Coldplay) #1 is one of them!

Posted by: cqmerqn Feb 24 2017, 11:22 AM

Yes, and the Stormzy remix is probably going to number one judging by kworb numbers.

Posted by: sammy01 Feb 24 2017, 11:22 AM

I'm not sure why anyone thought Ed would be dethroned, he'll keep #1 on Spotify too I'm sure.

Posted by: Mart!n Feb 24 2017, 11:36 AM

I was hoping the remx version Will fade away over the weekend, no chance of that happening

I can't stop streaming the Major Lazer remix OMG

Posted by: Bjork Feb 24 2017, 12:44 PM

The major lazer remix is a cazillion times better
Than the one with Stormzy
Cant see the appeal of the latter

Posted by: ElectroBoy Feb 24 2017, 12:47 PM

I don't see the appeal of stormzy at all I had the misfortune of seeing him live last year - it was horrific

Posted by: mr_pmt Feb 24 2017, 12:52 PM

I feel like we're being trolled with Stormzy.

Posted by: Bré Feb 24 2017, 01:33 PM

Stormzy top 2 on iTunes yasss

Posted by: AcerBen Feb 24 2017, 01:39 PM

Jason Derulo is surely taking the piss with new single. Vile.

Posted by: Regina Feb 24 2017, 01:57 PM

Is John Mayer #1 yet?

Posted by: timjimlee Feb 24 2017, 02:12 PM

Wrong Thread? EP seems to be number 3 in the Albums best sellers.

Posted by: Houdini Feb 24 2017, 02:14 PM

Is #2 the highest Stormzy has ever got on iTunes? Let's face it, he's the sole reason why the remix is so high.

Posted by: John-James Feb 24 2017, 02:28 PM

Well considering his presence is the only difference between it and the original, I'd say thats fairly obvious

Posted by: cqmerqn Feb 24 2017, 02:30 PM

Ed Sheeran fans are probably buying the remix too.

Posted by: Tinasha Feb 24 2017, 02:31 PM

I'd say Ed Sheeran is a big reason people are buying the Ed Sheeran song, too.

Well it's hardly his haters buying it.

Posted by: The Wise Sultan Feb 24 2017, 04:03 PM

I was hoping the Stormzy remix was a grime version of Shape Of You instrumentally as well as with his vocals, rather than just him rapping on top of the original tropical house-pop tune.

Posted by: Lenny Feb 24 2017, 04:29 PM

It is not tropical house. It's not a house or dance track!

I expect Calvin will get to #8 and then stall.

Posted by: Liаm Feb 24 2017, 04:48 PM

It's just a sort of dancehall-y pop song

Posted by: ML Hammer95 Feb 24 2017, 05:24 PM

Calvin Harris for the Top 10 please (don't normally seek out his music but this is such a tune).

Shocked to see Jason Derulo in the Top 20 to be honest! The definition of a 'hot mess'

Posted by: smidsy101 Feb 24 2017, 05:26 PM

Chainsmokers x Coldplay in light red already, surprisingly

Posted by: The Wise Sultan Feb 24 2017, 05:29 PM

That's why I said tropical house-pop. Just my term for pop songs that seem to be infused with tropical house style instrumentation. Maybe I should have just called it tropical pop, as yes, it is not house or dance music.

If we're to compare like for like, where did 'Better When I'm Dancing' get to on iTunes?

Posted by: cqmerqn Feb 24 2017, 08:13 PM

Ed Sheeran/Stormzy are number 1

Posted by: Regina Feb 24 2017, 08:58 PM

#1 by 10 then. Good.

Posted by: ___∆___ Feb 25 2017, 12:23 AM

59p boost -

#72 James Blunt - Love Me Better

Posted by: timjimlee Feb 25 2017, 08:51 AM

Also boost from his appearance on The Graham Norton Show last night.

Rag 'N' Bone Man also appeared on BBC last night (The One Show) refreshingly performing "Skin".

Posted by: Bjork Feb 25 2017, 09:05 AM

Ed 1.56 (combining the 3 versions top 100)
Chainsmk/Coldplay 0.83

so Ed almost selling double

Posted by: cqmerqn Feb 25 2017, 12:33 PM

So technically Coldplay are 0.27?

Posted by: Doctor Blind Feb 25 2017, 12:35 PM

No.

0.7731/(1.0000+ 0.5065+ 0.031) = 0.5

0.5 = half of the combined Ed total
0.25 = 1/4
0.1 = 1/10

etc.

Posted by: Queen LeQueefa Feb 25 2017, 12:41 PM

Yay go Ed!! Force Coldplay away from sellout pop and back to rock!!

Posted by: seltinpixmile Feb 25 2017, 01:08 PM

How is it possible that last update with Katy going 0.03 down being a light green update (comparing with other songs)?

Posted by: Doctor Blind Feb 25 2017, 01:22 PM

Because the #1 increased a lot more than she did, but she is still gaining on The Chainsmokers/Coldplay.

95. Down - Marian Hill

Posted by: mdh Feb 26 2017, 07:58 PM

This is one of those songs you hear a lot when you're out but never know what it's called - just gave this a listen and it's pretty good, wouldn't mind it being a hit in the future. Definitely very trendy with the trap/distorted drop, but not too overbearing at the same time, with a Spotify push this could be a decent sized hit.

Such a shame the superior Back To Me with Lauren Jaregui [I think I spelled her name right?] didn't do anything in the end

Posted by: cqmerqn Feb 26 2017, 11:06 PM

18. Jennifer Hudson - Spotlight

So pleased to see this back in the Top 20. Such an underrated artist - her albums are amazing.

Woah at Spotlight!! Amazing to see it so high, one of my all-time fave songs

Posted by: cqmerqn Feb 26 2017, 11:19 PM

Her album is at 14 too!

Posted by: timjimlee Feb 27 2017, 12:17 AM

Last Album "JHUD" at 85 as well, she will be looking to improve on the peak position overall for that one of 116...

Posted by: Liаm Feb 27 2017, 12:41 AM

Spotlight is a A+++++ solid 14/10 pop song, so glad to see it back She's such a talent, I'd love her to have hits with her next era. Songs like I Still Love You and Go All Night (ik the latter was a feature) could've easily been big. She has so many good songs though, I especially love He Ain't Goin' Nowhere, If This Isn't Love, I Remember Me, Don't Look Down, Giving Myself, I'm His Only Woman and of course And I Am Telling You <3

Anyone know the reason behind this?

Posted by: M4NG0 Feb 27 2017, 04:08 PM

356 Robbie Williams - Mixed Signals

Can't believe this is doing so poorly, especially considering he performed (part of) it at the Brits. I think it's one of the best things he's done for ages, that chorus is so good! Anyone know if there's any more promotion planned for it?

Posted by: pippa Feb 27 2017, 04:16 PM

With the remixes of Shape of You been all counted into one, Ed Sheeran will most likely experience an increase in sales for number 1 this week. Should this happen, it is a wonderful achievement for a song on its 8th week at number 1.

I cant help but feel it was Castle on the Hill experiencing this as i think its by far the better of the two tracks.

Mixed signals by Robbie is a song i expected to perform better based on the Brits performance but for Robbie to get traction on singles chart he needs to constantly promote which we seen with his last singles especially Love my Life. Love my Life got so much promotion and it still only managed a high top 30 peak.

Posted by: ___∆___ Feb 27 2017, 04:21 PM

Love this and it's such a radio friendly song and different from what Robbie normally does.

The icon award/Brits doesn't seem to have had a big impact in general though? I know LML went back into the Top 20 but faded away quickly, his Brits medley didn't seem to do anything and his albums hardly got a boost.

Posted by: gavindeejay Feb 27 2017, 05:15 PM

LML was hammered by streaming in fairness!

Posted by: mrbrightside Feb 27 2017, 06:46 PM

It's such a good song because Brandon Flowrs wrote it. Shame it's not doing well

Posted by: Houdini Feb 27 2017, 09:40 PM

Surprised that Stormzy is still at #1. I thought he would have fallen off the top of iTunes by now seeing as the performance was last Wednesday.

Posted by: ElectroBoy Feb 27 2017, 10:12 PM

I guess it's more Ed keeping the song afloat - you know the major artist out of the two that's more popular

Posted by: Mack Feb 27 2017, 10:36 PM

08. Anne-Marie - Ciao Adios

Needs to perform it somewhere to keep it stable

Posted by: M4NG0 Feb 28 2017, 12:01 PM

Never knew that, although now you say it definitely sounds like a Killers song

Posted by: Bjork Feb 28 2017, 12:39 PM

Sounds more like Bon Jovi to be honest

Posted by: M4NG0 Feb 28 2017, 12:48 PM

Doesn't sound anything like Bon Jovi it's not heavy enough for a start.

It has been bugging me what other Artist "Mixed Signals" sounds like, definitely not Bon Jovi but it could pass as Eighties soft rock.
The Guardian described it as "cartoon Bruce Springsteen" and other reviews referred to it as "a Killers cast-off".

For me it is definitely the best track on the Album but that's possibly because Eighties is my era!

Posted by: M4NG0 Feb 28 2017, 02:10 PM

Yeah it has a definite 80s soft rock vibe to it, like most Killers songs also do.

Surely that's the first time Pancake Day has ever had an effect on the charts

Posted by: mdh Mar 1 2017, 09:14 PM

Not sure where else to put this, but where do we think Little Mix can debut with "No More Sad Songs"?

It's their next single from Glory Days and features Machine Gun Kelly - the version will get an individual release on Friday meaning it'll probably have New Music Friday and iTunes Hot Songs support. Bearing in mind Ed will be everywhere, where do we think it'll chart first week?

Posted by: cqmerqn Mar 1 2017, 09:18 PM

30

Posted by: JosephStyles Mar 1 2017, 09:24 PM

I'd have said top 20 possibly in a normal week but it depends on how much impact Ed will have :')

Posted by: mdh Mar 1 2017, 09:27 PM

I haven't heard the song yet, but I guarantee I'll unexpectedly love it and end up getting irritated when it misses out on top 20 or something due to Ed being bloody everywhere :,) Strange week for them to release a single!!

Posted by: JosephStyles Mar 1 2017, 09:32 PM

I guess Hair took a few weeks to peak so No More Sad Songs will likely do the same and it won't matter anyway!

Posted by: Bjork Mar 1 2017, 09:32 PM

I'd say it will miss the top 40
this Machine Guy is no Sean Paul if they were attempting at repeating the success of Hair
they should have gone with Oops as 3rd single

Posted by: ML Hammer95 Mar 1 2017, 09:35 PM

Machine Gun Kelly is like a lesser G-Eazy, not the most flattering comparison. Should have gone for Sean Paul again.

Posted by: JosephStyles Mar 1 2017, 09:36 PM

I doubt Sean Paul was the main reason Hair was successful tbf, the Little Mix fanbase will buy the new mix regardless of who it is and the song is popular already so I think it will do a lot better than you're suggesting, especially as they're enjoying more success than ever!

Posted by: Steve201 Mar 1 2017, 09:50 PM

I doubt next week will be LM peak as it's not been sent to radio even yet, I assume this Friday will be the first week of promo!

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 1 2017, 09:56 PM

There won't be promo for this, for a while yet. They're still in the US on tour with Ariana.

I think this is being released so soon, so that radio is at it's peak for it for when they're eventually able to promote it!

Posted by: timjimlee Mar 1 2017, 09:57 PM

"Green Light" for go, new single from Lorde, available from tomorrow at some point.
Interested to see how it does, she definitely couldn't have chosen a more competitive first week.

Posted by: Steve201 Mar 1 2017, 10:02 PM

In a singles campaign I think it generally better to promo near the start to boost it up the iTunes/streaming chart!

Posted by: mr_pmt Mar 1 2017, 10:10 PM

It's like the most ultra-generic tropical house-styled song imaginable, so you probably will.

Posted by: mdh Mar 1 2017, 10:20 PM

Brilliant, never too much tropical in the charts

Posted by: Queen LeQueefa Mar 1 2017, 10:33 PM

Little Mix will flop.

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 1 2017, 10:39 PM

Posted by: 777666jason Mar 1 2017, 11:24 PM

Yeah I agree with those saying it will likely do a hair and climb later but should go top 40

Posted by: Defaze Mar 1 2017, 11:52 PM

I doubt it, considering they haven't flopped since... 'Word Up'? Plus, NMSS screams 'hit'.

I imagine it should go top 30 this week, possibly lower since Ed Sheeran will inevitably clog up the top 20. I echo those saying it won't peak for a while yet. 'Touch' took off almost instantly but it had the X Factor performance to boost it, and the chart was a lot quieter in December.

Posted by: Tinasha Mar 2 2017, 12:07 AM

There are a few things to take into account with No More Sad Songs. Firstly, Machine Gun Kelly is nowhere near as big a name as Sean Paul, but then NMSS is arguably a much better and accessible song than Hair, and the girls are even bigger than they were when they released Hair. And another thing to take into account is if they're releasing the video this week, their videos always have an effect on their chart positions. Secret Love Song, Hair and Touch all got significant boosts.

It also depends how quick the label are to get it onto Hot Hits UK.

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 2 2017, 12:50 AM

854. No More Sad Songs
908. No More Sad Songs

Good that they've entered on the back of an announcement! So that'll be 3 entries on Friday, then! (It's a great single choice and will continue their mini-Justin Bieber style effect of appealing to more than just their casual fanbase - i.e. another streaming hit I imagine)

Also, I'm SO happy to see them still top 100 with their BRITs performance, after all the others seem to have faded away (barring Ed of course).

Posted by: omrimayo Mar 2 2017, 06:28 AM

7PM UK time. After almost 4 years she choose the worst week of all time (After Adele?) to release, don't get it but I love her and I think it will be big anyway.

Posted by: Liаm Mar 2 2017, 12:21 PM

First week doesn't really matter as much anymore, of course it's not ideal when you release on the week that Ed Sheeran will take up god knows how much of the top 20 but songs take a while to build anyway so in a few weeks time when it's picking up airplay and it's risen on spotify it won't matter that 3 weeks ago Ed Sheeran took up the top 20.

How did 'Word Up' flop when it charted at #6?

Posted by: mr_pmt Mar 2 2017, 01:40 PM

Probably by not even selling 100k in total.

Posted by: ElectroBoy Mar 2 2017, 01:41 PM

Wasn't it just propped up by the Comic Relief or whatever charity it was for tag and then completely bombed out the charts subsequently.

Posted by: sammy01 Mar 2 2017, 01:46 PM

It depends what you are looking to get out of a single, it was for charity so looked good for them, went top 10 and kept them firmly in the public eye.

No one bar the few on here will know it sold only 100k.

Posted by: danG Mar 2 2017, 01:51 PM

It went 6-18-43-60-OUT, not exactly great for the biggest girlband of the current generation, although it was only a promotional single for charity and didn't have any negative effect on their career. I'd still call it a flop though.

Posted by: JosephStyles Mar 2 2017, 02:01 PM

Word Up! got let off quite lightly really with the fact it was just a cover for charity, it's easily swept under the rug. Top 10 is good but it was an underperformance for sure.

Posted by: Defaze Mar 2 2017, 02:05 PM

Yeah, I don't know why people are using the charity label to justify its underperformance -- if anything, that should have bolstered its sales. It was a definite flop, but it wasn't exactly well received so it was hardly a shock. I'd consider it their only flop really; 'How Ya Doin', 'Little Me' and 'Change Your Life' didn't do great, but they weren't nearly as big back then, and their swift chart runs weren't anything out of the ordinary back in 2013.

Posted by: andeeeeyhart Mar 2 2017, 02:29 PM

Loads of songs can chart in the Top 10 yet still be considered a flop. It depends on longevity and impressive sales, neither of which Word Up had.

Posted by: Bjork Mar 2 2017, 03:09 PM

Until Black magic
Little Mix were a 2nd division band
Releasing second rate songs
Now they are on the 1st division
But not when Salute came out

Posted by: Queen LeQueefa Mar 2 2017, 03:14 PM

Absolutely this!!!

Salute and DnA are literally their only two good songs in a bunch of Simpn Cowell pop crap.

They had to copy the Spice Girls' 1990s sound to create such cheap pastiche like Black Magic to become relevant.

Posted by: dj_tim_e Mar 2 2017, 03:15 PM

Tis true but they were a great singles act in general. Now they're great all round.

Posted by: sammy01 Mar 2 2017, 03:16 PM

Exactly (though Move isn't a 2nd rate song) at the time they struggled a lot to get top 10 hits, especially after the first single off an album. Word Up was a means to an end, made them look a big act getting a charity song gig and look good doing something for charity and got them a top 10.

Posted by: The Wise Sultan Mar 2 2017, 04:10 PM

Shout Out To My Ex is heavily influenced by GRL, whereas Touch is kind of Beyoncé influenced, especially the bit with the group singing 'Wait So Long'.

Change Your Life is my favourite Little Mix song.

Posted by: mdh Mar 2 2017, 04:44 PM

Pre-predicta predictions, then? Do tell me if there're any tracks to add to this list...

iTunes / officially
xx / xx | Little Mix ft Machine Gun Kelly - No More Sad Songs
xx / xx | Coldplay - Hypnotised
xx / xx | Cash Cash ft ROZES - Matches
xx / xx | Lorde - Green Light
xx / xx | offaiah - Run

(excluding the Ed Sheeran songs)

Posted by: Tinasha Mar 2 2017, 04:45 PM

Touch is nothing like a Beyoncé song. I get comparisons to Sorry, Work From Home etc. though

Posted by: The Wise Sultan Mar 2 2017, 05:35 PM

Hope Matches and Run do well, they both sound great from the small previews. Matches is actually the first future bass song I have ever liked judging by the preview, definitely sounds much livelier than The Chainsmokers or Martin Garrix's new songs.

Matches - maybe about #65 officially (maybe #20-25 on iTunes if lucky) and offaiah may just make top 100 officially (low top 40 on iTunes if lucky). Both will hopefully be playlisted by Radio 1. Little Mix and Machine Gun Kelly should easily go top 10 on iTunes quite quickly of course and should be in line for a top 30 official entry. Lorde I am not sure, probably will make top 20 on iTunes and may make about #55 officially.

Posted by: Hadji Mar 2 2017, 05:39 PM

As if Johnny Cash has climbed to #41 because of the Logan advert on TV

Posted by: The Wise Sultan Mar 2 2017, 05:44 PM

Maybe not the whole song, but the way they sing 'Wait So Long' as a group reminds me of Beyoncé for some reason.

Ed's album streaming is really going to bring these new releases down anyhow, I may be overestimating his impact but it'll be strong.

Not sure how to judge the Lorde song as I've no idea what it sounds like or how much hype she'll get upon her return, but it should at least make the iTunes top 10.

Posted by: mdh Mar 2 2017, 06:18 PM

Strange to think we could be having 9 new entries this week, and another 15 next week - bet we never thought that'd happen this time last year

Posted by: Rob S~ Mar 2 2017, 06:22 PM

Yassss out with the stale

I personally think only Little Mix & possibly Coldplay will be top 40 along with climbers into the top 40 for Imagine Dragons & Julia Michaels! Lorde is hard to tell but I think she'll be low top 50 as I can't see streaming being too kind to her!

Posted by: mdh Mar 2 2017, 06:24 PM

I think Julia Michaels will make it, though because of the Ed Sheeran influx I think Imagine Dragons will definitely miss out

Posted by: cqmerqn Mar 2 2017, 06:29 PM

Yeah Julia Michaels is a contender

Posted by: The Wise Sultan Mar 2 2017, 06:47 PM

The 'Matches' song has leaked online in full, it certainly has an interesting sounding drop, pity it and offaiah - Run are unlikely to ever officially make top 40.

Posted by: 777666jason Mar 2 2017, 06:56 PM

Could be a risky move them releasing it today might just scrape next week

Posted by: Jade Mar 2 2017, 08:50 PM

Great start for Lorde would be one of the absolute best chart hits of the year so far if it could make it.

Posted by: Bré Mar 2 2017, 08:51 PM

I'm actually a little surprised that Lorde is that high already, I know the wait for new material from her has been long and painful but considering she only has one big hit I am pretty skeptical of whether she'll be able to manage a second one. Really hope so though, it's a pretty great comeback single and sounds more mainstream than her previous material so I could definitely see it being big provided it gets the Spotify playlists / radio support.

Posted by: timjimlee Mar 2 2017, 08:56 PM

Ed seems to be hyping up "Perfect" as the monster song from the Album, wonder whether he may perform that and propel it to number 1.

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 2 2017, 09:13 PM

I had a feeling Lorde would be pretty big with this next era. She is literally the internet darling and has blogs like Buzzfeed & Popjustice wetting themselves over her! Plus, I really think being BFF's with Taylor has really helped her fanbase grow.

So I fully expected her to get off to a strong start! Loads of hype surrounding her return.

Posted by: timjimlee Mar 2 2017, 09:19 PM

For me Lorde's David Bowie Tribute at the Brits last year was flawless and gave her more credibility than I think she previously had.
Hope "Green Light" smashes, she was described as "the future of music" afterall!

Posted by: danG Mar 2 2017, 09:23 PM
