Liam Gallagher is certain to take this week's #1 album with 'As You Were', his debut solo album. The big question is whether he can sell over 100,000 albums in one week. Other new albums challenging for a top 10 position include Elvis Presley and the RPO 'Christmas', Giggs 'Wamp 2 Dem', JP Cooper 'Raised Under Grey Skies' and Marilyn Manson 'Heaven Upside Down'.

In the singles chart we could see Post Malone feat. 21 Savage 'rockstar' at #1 again or could Camila Cabello feat. Young Thug 'Havana' overtake it to give both artists their first #1? Contending for top 40 positions this week are new singles from Sam Smith 'Pray', Charlie Puth 'How Long' and Giggs feat. Donae'o 'Linguo'. Also Liam Gallagher's 'For What It's Worth' could finally make the top 40 following the release of his album, and CamelPhat & Elderbrook 'Cola' could climb into the top 40.

NOT ANOTHER Elvis trash on chart ENOUGH already

Posted by: Bjork 8th October 2017, 11:02 AM

Minty also posted that liam sold 1/4 relative to Ed
on day 1
So 232k/4= 58k

Posted by: timjimlee 8th October 2017, 01:22 PM

Foregone conclusion in the Album chart this week, only real question is how close Liam's Album can get to 100k.
Ed should move back up to #2 with possibly Giggs at #3, 'Landlord' opened at #2 in August last year with Sales of 11,437. If he does manage to improve his Sales and nick a consecutive #2 placing it will come a week after Wolf Alice secured consecutive #2 Albums.

Posted by: dennispennis123 8th October 2017, 02:05 PM

Liam Gallagher always set for a big number one debut, I just hope it stays a consistent seller and stays around the top 10 for a while after this week.

Posted by: Jez 8th October 2017, 05:51 PM

"LIAM GALLAGHER is set for a huge No.1 album after selling more than the rest of the chart’s top 75 combined."
"The former Oasis star shifted over 55,000 copies of his debut solo record As You Were in just one day.
His nearest competitor is The Darkness, who are currently sitting in second place with 4,000 sales.
Liam’s numbers include a huge 40,000 from people who pre-ordered the critically acclaimed recor

Posted by: commonsense 8th October 2017, 05:53 PM

Bit early for the Elvis release but could sell well in the run up to Christmas.

Posted by: Hocus Pokus 8th October 2017, 06:19 PM

I reckon around 85k at the end of the week, as pre-orders have been added.

Good sales though.

Posted by: iain 8th October 2017, 08:41 PM

It will be interesting to see how/if he holds up in the next few weeks given the lack of hit singles. Surprisingly, most of the album was in the Spotify top 100 yesterday.

Posted by: timjimlee 8th October 2017, 08:55 PM

A decent start for The Darkness then but those Sales are low and will be lucky to stay in Top 3. A Top 10 position looks assured though which is an improvement on their previous Album from 2 years ago (#12). Seems every other release makes the Top 10 for them (1->11->4->12).

Posted by: Jez 9th October 2017, 07:59 AM

I expect the darkness to drop quite a bit through the week. that 4k on first day will be very front loaded it might even end up nearly out of the top10.

Posted by: FleetSeb 9th October 2017, 08:33 AM

Did Mi Gente sell enough last week to get out of ACR?

Posted by: timjimlee 9th October 2017, 09:18 AM

I think it will be close but in their favour is not much competition from other new releases (apart from Liam & Giggs) and the Sales for #10 position this week will be a lot less than last week (approx 7k).
Given Tom Petty & The Heartbreaker's 'Greatest Hits' is still in Top 10 Best Sellers on Amazon and iTunes it has a decent chance to climb from last week's #14 position and beat the original peak position from 1993 of #10.

Posted by: ArturCorreia 9th October 2017, 09:38 AM

Kelela is going to miss top40, isn't she?

Posted by: M4NG0 9th October 2017, 10:24 AM

I knew Liam was going to sell decently but wasn't expecting sales to be quite so big. Very impressive!

Posted by: timjimlee 9th October 2017, 10:27 AM

This week's release is just the regular Edition of the Album, the Deluxe Edition is out on the 24th November and this will be when the Promo kicks in.
The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra idea has done surprisingly well and has been expanded to a Roy Orbison Album this year, judging by the Pre-Release chart looks like being almost as successful.
Hope we don't get too many of these clogging up the top end of the Chart though.

Posted by: Jade-o-Lantern🎃 9th October 2017, 11:43 AM

I hope she can scrape in 🙏 really rooting for her this week. Plus Liam Gallagher to smash as much as possible.

Posted by: BlazingLovatic 9th October 2017, 02:10 PM

Do you guys think Demi's album can hold onto the top 20 this week?

Posted by: DANKENSTEIN 9th October 2017, 02:23 PM

Posted by: Robbie 9th October 2017, 02:58 PM

I expect Liam Gallgher's album to be very front loaded so it may not sell much more during the week.

Posted by: liamk97 9th October 2017, 04:49 PM

Update on the way. Liam Gallagher is on 79,000 so far and outselling the rest of the Top 20 combined, whilst Post Malone has a 1k lead over Camila Cabello in the singles.

Posted by: Jez 9th October 2017, 04:49 PM

79K for Liam Gallagher in the album chart so far

Posted by: jessie j 9th October 2017, 04:51 PM

Havana still at #2 fingers crossed it'll scrape #1 on Friday.

also nice to see Liam Gallagher, Giggs, and CamelPhat enter the top 40... hopefully they all stay in on Friday.

Posted by: Lomadz 9th October 2017, 04:52 PM

Massive sales for Liam. No chance of Camila being no1 this week. She needs some promotion next week to push it.

Posted by: timjimlee 9th October 2017, 04:55 PM

Hope she is ok.

wow A-ha at #4 with an unplugged album, low sales are really beneffiting 80s bands with loyal fans
crazy that by comparison their best album ever, Lifelines, only peaked at #67, and the followup Analogue only at #24 despite having a top 10 single

Hopefully she can pick it up a bit before the end of the week.

Posted by: gavindeejay 9th October 2017, 06:07 PM

I’m surprised to see Elvis only at #13. I guess it’ll hold up and climb as we get nearer to Christmas.

Excellent sales for Liam. Will he overtake Noel’s first week sales for his second album? I’m sure it was only 94k

Posted by: ElectroBoy 9th October 2017, 06:14 PM

Hmmm Charlie Puth at 46... but rising on both streaming and i-tunes, hopefully he can sneak into the top 40 come sunday

Posted by: M4NG0 9th October 2017, 06:22 PM

Crazy sales for Liam thought Zak Abel's album would do a bit better, I guess it will miss the Top 100 now.

Why the massive fall for P!nk when she's not even on ACR?

Posted by: JosephGutierrez 9th October 2017, 06:23 PM

She is!

Posted by: 28 Brays Later 9th October 2017, 06:43 PM

Surprising to see Liam's solo album doing so much better than Beady Eye ever did! Gwan Giggs coming for possibly another top 2 album and finally a first top 40 hit as lead artist *.* not heard 'Linguo' but I'm told it sounds very similar to 'Lock Doh' and it is criminal that never went top 40 so this can make up for it. x

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 9th October 2017, 06:45 PM

Totally had no idea Marilyn Manson had a new album. That seems like a bit of a poor showing for JP Cooper, but then 'September Song' was quite a long time ago and any hype since has evaporated.

I'm not so sure, I feel like realistically Demi's now in a better position to pull off a future hit single from this campaign.

Posted by: M4NG0 9th October 2017, 07:07 PM

But it says she's only been on the chart 9 weeks? I'm confused

Posted by: JosephGutierrez 9th October 2017, 07:08 PM

Remember it was a Thursday release and debuted top 100 on just 24 hours of sales, so in the official chart, this will be its 10th week!

Posted by: BigMixer 9th October 2017, 07:24 PM

She is still building her lead on iTunes, if she keeps rising, she'll snatch the #1.

Posted by: scratchy23 9th October 2017, 07:28 PM

Any sign of Zak Abel’s album?

This guys talent is insane, and the album is so good. It deserves AT LEAST top 40

Posted by: 777666jason 9th October 2017, 07:53 PM

Yeah I assume the Elvis album will sell better closer to christmas

Posted by: timjimlee 9th October 2017, 07:56 PM

Weren't you Abel to see it? It's at #59.

Posted by: ElectroBoy 9th October 2017, 07:57 PM

I doubt sales is going to win anything - Streaming is where any chart battle is going to win these days and seeing as Post Malone is a fair way ahead he will win

Posted by: dennispennis123 9th October 2017, 07:59 PM

Sales are horrific in both charts apart from LG.

Posted by: dennispennis123 9th October 2017, 08:03 PM

Very tough for any Christmas album to sell in early October.

I'd expect it to start climbing once Halloween is out of the way but seems a mistake to release it so early in case it peters out.

A lot of xmas albums begin to be released in October to build momentum. Buble released his around the final week of October and debuted at no1 before falling but recovering in December and never leaving he top 5, although he was and is huge. These RPO albums are into their third year so this may be having an effect now with this series.

So there is a chance it may disappear before late November but Kylie and Rod Stewart have done well with xmas editions since Buble so we shall have to wait and see.

There may be a xmas special lined up for December!

Posted by: Hocus Pokus 11th October 2017, 05:23 PM

Post Malone has been increasing no chance for Camilla this week, she might get there next week, it really depends what's out on New Music Friday, I know Eminem and P!nk are releasing to me that sounds like a contender.

Looking more like Ed will nick the #2 spot from Giggs, if he does it will be the first time the weekly move for the Album is more than 1 place (since the first week).
Some of the Album new entries are holding up better than expected, The Darkness look sure to make Top 10, still wonder whether Tom Petty's Greatest Hits Album can push Jason Manford's Album out of Top 10 - hope so, these Albums from comedians/actors are preventing progress from genuine Musicians.

So Miley has fallen two places since Monday and Demi has gained two places. I wonder who'll be higher come Friday

None of those albums were released this early though, Buble was another 2 weeks, Rod Stewart's 3 weeks and Kylie was mid-November. This just feel at least 2 weeks too early, were not even that close to Halloween yet.

There is a danger that this album could debut very low and just get forgotten about, its too early and its not like Elvis is gonna do a few performances in November/December to build it back-up.

Any sign of Kelela ?

As mentioned earlier in the thread, the Deluxe Edition is out on the 24th November and this will be when the Promo kicks in - this version is all ready in the Top 20 Pre-order chart and will comfortably propel Album to Top 5 at that time just before Christmas. I do wonder whether it will do as well as previous RPO Albums though especially as there would appear to be more competition with Christmas Albums than ever this year (I agree the Roy Orbison Album may just outperform it).

I hate when artists do that release an album just to release a deluxe version a year later but to release a deluxe version less than 2 months later that'd criminal and just plain greedy of the record company basically trying to get you to buy it twice

Posted by: timjimlee 12th October 2017, 09:20 AM

Total agree and in this case it is the same price (£9.99) for both versions which seems odd.

Posted by: 777666jason 12th October 2017, 09:26 AM

The same price too I'd feel cheated

The record company knows Elvis fans will buy anything Elvis so they can get away with it. If there was a new album of him burping and farting for 12 tracks they'd buy it.

Now that would be a novel idea for an album of orchestral arrangements!

Posted by: Mullo 12th October 2017, 10:33 AM

Anyone got a Shania update??

Posted by: Steve201 12th October 2017, 02:00 PM

It is true tho!

I can see why they are releasing again on 24/11. Wonder why they chose to release it so early then. Is the Roy Orbison album a Christmas release?

Posted by: DANKENSTEIN 12th October 2017, 02:07 PM

Maybe they should do an official release of "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elvis%27_Greatest_Shit" in that case.

(yes, that is actually real)

Posted by: timjimlee 12th October 2017, 02:08 PM

Released on the 3rd November, contains Roy's classics - the advertising blurb states it consists of hits and fan favourites such as “Oh, Pretty Woman,” “Crying” and “Only the Lonely,” with the emotion and world class musicianship of the Royal Philharmonic, London’s most notable orchestra, plus additional instrumentation by Roy’s sons and grandson.

Isnt that just a bootleg release of tons of "In between song banter" at concerts as its annoyingly called?. Its just talking to the audience.

Posted by: Lenny 12th October 2017, 04:40 PM

Well smack my ass and call me Judy!

Posted by: DANKENSTEIN 12th October 2017, 04:44 PM

Nope, that was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Having_Fun_with_Elvis_on_Stage.

Thanks!
