Apparently they are 1.5k behind Borelow so it’s not quite *over* yet

I’m sure BMG will pull out all the stops but I think Steps would have to be leading right now to achieve #1. Gary has two very big promo slots which will probably have a bigger effect than the scattered smaller promo that Steps have. The reason the sales are so close right now is because of preorders and I think Steps fans are more likely to multibuy than Gary fans.

Gary has/had Graham Norton and Strictly this week, the two biggest promo slots out there at the moment they are going to help casual sales for him massively. |

It’s all to play for!
Gary’s appearance on Graham Norton didn’t appear to achieve much of boost for him.

Sat mids only have Fri pure sales, so the effect of GN is not shown on today's mids
apparently it's 23K for Gary and 21K for Steps with just 1500 copies in-between and Steps are outselling 3-10 combined, which reads like Miley is very far, but it's just pure sales with no streams yet This post has been edited by Bjork: 28th November 2020, 02:33 PM |

Out of those, Miley will do the best in streaming, but not well enough to make a difference

QUOTE(jsweetxe @ Nov 27 2020, 03:33 PM) Little Mix were consistently ahead of Kylie on pre-orders on iTunes and then they never managed to hit #1 on iTunes for the entire week. Disco had a few weeks to build up iTunes pre-orders before Confetti's pre-order went up though. So Little Mix were effectively playing catch up, and it being ahead was a little deceiving. Confetti's pre-orders were also concentrated with just one version of the album, whereas Disco's were spread over a deluxe and standard. It seems that Steps will end up having stronger downloads than Gary, and I would assume better streaming too! Will be interesting to see how things turn out this week, and if BMG pull out some Kylie-esque tactics.

His album is currently #8 and #56 on iTunes / #18, #28, #140, #472 on Amazon. I suppose the effect might be felt more from supermarket sales, but we shall see  If only Steps could achieve some high profile slots. It's a bit frustrating that they prove themselves commercially over and over again, yet there still seems to be a glass ceiling for them, i.e. not getting big chat shows / performance slots. |

Miley will most likely be at #3 once streaming is added, I'm guessing she will probably end the week at around #4 which is still a decent achievement, I hope it just has a decent chart run.

But this King King that isn't even on the release schedule is ahead of Miley? That's bizarre, how much has she done? 3k? Unbelievable after the huge success of Midnight Sky everywhere and the crazy radio support it's got that no one is interested in the album, really sad :/
