Sunday Chart Predictions
Predicting the 12/04 to 18/04 chart



There's a rumour going round that we should all buy 'Jealous'
After winning the fourth series of The Voice UK at the weekend, Stevie McCrorie shocked all by breaking the "no-success-unless-you're-Becky-Hill" curse and going to #1 on iTunes with 'Lost Stars'. However, as she gains on iTunes and has streaming on her side, Jess Glynne is likely to remain officially #1 for a third week with 'Hold My Hand'. Looking to debut within the Top 10 is one third of The Jonas Brothers, Nick, with his first proper single in the UK, 'Jealous', and Pep & Rash with 'Rumors' (annoyingly going with the American spelling!). Kygo and Conrad's 'Firestone' may also creep into the Top 10 this week whilst, further down the chart, Omi's 'Cheerleader' may continue climbing on streams only.

With no particularly big releases this week, the #1 in the albums could go to The Prodigy, James Bay or Sam Smith - or, if only, Sia could be looking at a surprise climb to the top spot. In terms of new entries, likely to make the Top 10 is All Time Low's Future Hearts, whilst Drenge's Undertow, Brian Wilson's No Pier Pressure, East India Youth's Culture of Volume, Nadine Shah's Fast Food and Young Fathers' White Men Are Black Men Too may enter lower down, along with EPs from Jamie T and Flo Rida - the latter releasing on Wednesday.

========================================================

This is going to be a tough week to call, hoping Jess can get a 3rd week, she probably has more chance of getting there with streams on her side, but will her streams be enough, still waiting on sales for last week which should drop anything soon. With Nick Jonas chasing for the top as well

Prodigy should maintain their lead in the album chart, unless James Bay re-claims it.

Oh... and the Rumor track wording for Pep & Rash is doing my head in. drama.gif

Posted by: James1987 Apr 7 2015, 10:18 AM

Really got everything crossed that streaming will help give Jess a 3rd week but we were all convinced Ed would do it last week that I'm preparing myself for a potential Nick Jonas number one (breaking this years run of good number ones, bar Sam though!)

The Voice winner is actually possibly going to be number 1 this week.

Posted by: Mart!n Apr 7 2015, 10:49 AM

And we have confirmation of the #1 single

The Voice winner Stevie McCrorie has taken an early lead on this week's Official Singles Chart.

OfficialCharts.com can reveal that the Scottish firefighter's winner's single Lost Stars is currently Number 1 in today's early sales flash (April 7).

McCrorie's track, which is yet to be made available on streaming services, currently has a lead of 5,000 sales over his closest competitor, but faces strong competition from new releases by Nick Jonas (Jealous) and DJ duo Pep & Rash (Rumors) as well as current leader Hold My Hand by Jess Glynne.

5,000 ahead drama.gif

Posted by: JoeyXCX Apr 7 2015, 10:53 AM

5k will be quite easy for one or both of Jess Glynne and Nick Jonas to overtake I think, not that far ahead at all especially when he's falling rapidly on iTunes.

Posted by: Mateja Apr 7 2015, 10:59 AM

It's only Tuesday and Stevie is dropping hard on iTunes (see Kworb). I think either Jess or Nick will be #1, which is fine by me.

Posted by: gooddelta Apr 7 2015, 11:00 AM

Definitely won't be No.1 then, Jess and Nick will close a 5k gap in 2-3 days easily.

Posted by: Mart!n Apr 7 2015, 11:15 AM

Not really a big fan of the Nick Jonas track, I just hope Jess Glynne can muster another week on top over the rest.

Posted by: ___∆___ Apr 7 2015, 11:26 AM

5k is a small lead especially as there are no physicals or streaming - He's promoting all week and was on Heart and Radio 1 today so hopefully he will stabilize and end up Top 3, Something which I didn't think a Voice winner would achieve!

That's what too much AirPlay does for a song

Posted by: slowdown73 Apr 7 2015, 12:26 PM

The Nick Jonas track is awful, so hope that isnt number one.

Posted by: Mateja Apr 7 2015, 12:31 PM

"Jealous" is pretty great. The Remix with Tinashe is even better.

Never mind the huge amount of posters on here who love it?

In any case I'm not one of the above so I'm strongly hoping for Jess to hold; given that she went from 82% of Bloodstream last Tuesday to 107% ultimately and Bloodstream has more reason to be steady (much higher streaming + album version), I think she can do it if she's >70% today... whether or not she will be I'm not sure.

Does anyone know if Jealous has been on Spotify since more than a few weeks ago?

Posted by: Joe. Apr 7 2015, 12:33 PM

5k is nothing since it's free-falling at this early stage in the week. Nick will overtake very soon. I still think it'll go Jess 1, Nick 2, though.

(only partially kidding thinking.gif)

"Jealous" is one of my favourite songs of the past 12 months so Nick for #1.

Posted by: Liаm Apr 7 2015, 12:46 PM

That actually is what made it take off in the US tbf laugh.gif But airplay was huge before long, so it was always going to be. I really hope it's #1 too, it was easily in my top 20 of 2014 and revising that I'd easily put it top 10 now. Such a flawless, perfect pop song, especially compared to Jess' disappointment and Stevie's bore.

Posted by: Hadji Apr 7 2015, 01:02 PM

Stevie would have a chance of holding onto #1 for Sunday if it had a physical equivalent like The X Factor winners song does. The Nick Jonas song is quite catchy but I prefer the Tinashe remix so I'm hoping if anyone is gonna pip Stevie to the post by Sunday, let it be Nick

Posted by: MrIndependent Apr 7 2015, 01:30 PM

Nick for #1. I would've expected Stevie to be more than 5k ahead judging by his initial lead on iTunes.

Posted by: Doctor Blind Apr 7 2015, 01:39 PM

Stevie McCrorie has no chance of #1 then - the lead was made to look a lot larger because of the very low sales at the moment, and of course Nick Jonas' pre-orders were not incorporated. I suspect Jess will get a narrow third week at the top- but it will be very close no doubt.

Posted by: Joe. Apr 7 2015, 01:43 PM

I would say Jess would probably take it due to weekend sales, but Nick doing Alan Carr on Friday could just grab him that #1.
(he's also on Lorraine on Thursday morning)

Posted by: mr_aly Apr 7 2015, 01:46 PM

Well I for one love 'Jealous', so I wouldn't mind seeing it at #1. I just hope this Voice winner thing doesn't beat it.

Posted by: Jonjo Apr 7 2015, 02:32 PM

Nick grabbing a number 1 (even with low sales) would be very welcome for me! He has Alan Carr on Friday so I'm hoping that'll be enough to secure him the number 1!

Posted by: Taylor Jago Apr 7 2015, 03:35 PM

Personally, if Hold Back The River is a contender, I would like it to get to number one.

Posted by: Joe. Apr 7 2015, 03:37 PM

Of course Trouble will go top 40, probably top 30 or higher in fact. It's now #70 on Spotify and will almost certainly get at least 2 more weeks on the B list on Radio 1. (hasn't even had a full day on the B-list yet!)

QUOTE(Hadji @ Apr 7 2015, 03:22 PM) *

It usually does actually, however its lead tends to be so huge that it doesn't fall off #1 until near the end of the week.

Posted by: Juranamo Apr 7 2015, 05:45 PM

I'm probably the only one who cares, but Grant Nicholas' new EP, 'Black Clouds', is top 30 (according to his Facebook) in the album mids.

Posted by: ETH▲N Apr 7 2015, 05:49 PM

Hopefully Jess Glynne can hold on for a third week at #1! cheer.gif

Posted by: Dobbo Apr 7 2015, 06:05 PM

Well I'm far more interested in the album side of things this week seeing if The Prodigy can hold on the top.

Posted by: ¡bré! Apr 7 2015, 07:05 PM

I'd be extremely shocked if The Prodigy are still #1, expecting them to drop out of the top 5. All Time Low might be #1 contenders at least in the mids but failing that it'll just be a return to #1 for James Bay (or, God forbid, Sam Smith again).

Posted by: steve201 Apr 7 2015, 07:16 PM

Yeh Prodigys lowish sales last week will mean it'll be lucky to sell 15k this week IMO!

Sam Smith again or this years equilivant James Bay after his promo last weekend.

Posted by: Rush Apr 7 2015, 07:34 PM

Sam Smith is this year's Sam Smith to be honest laugh.gif I'd consider James Bay more George Ezra.

Posted by: steve201 Apr 7 2015, 08:00 PM

Yeh he should sell really well either way!

Posted by: Mart!n Apr 8 2015, 02:36 PM

Bars & Melody *.*

Posted by: Joe. Apr 8 2015, 02:51 PM

Urgh Stevie still at #1 he must be hanging on with very few sales though, fully expect him down to the #2 (or lower) by tomorrow.

Stevie looks safe to achieve a top 5 hit now, now matter how much sales slow down.

I can see the Prodigy ending the week at number 5 with Sam Smith moving up to number 4. Good to see Ed Sheeran back above Sam Smith, as it stands they are the front runners for best selling album of the year. While i enjoy some of Sam Smith's work i enjoy Ed Sheeran's more, X album is still such an enjoyable album.

Olly Murs remaining top 30 with Up and Seasons dropping out, i am extremely fond of "up" but it is a big hit already so i would have preferred seasons to be in Up's position.

Posted by: Doctor Blind Apr 8 2015, 03:03 PM

Jess Glynne was the biggest seller yesterday, by quite a margin over Nick. So I fully expect her to get a third week now. Yesterday's sales were FTR (#1: 25.8K, #2: 21.3K, #3: 14.8K)

Stevie McCrorie looks like he'll end up about #4 or #5 depending on how he holds up.

James Bay will probably take the #1 album by Sunday, has been selling more than the #1 album yesterday.

Top 3 singles I can definitely see that changing, Stevie has no stream sales, Nick 5% stream sales, Jess 21% stream sales, and looking at the top 3, Jess has actually sold 2k more yesterday than the top 2 tracks, with 5.1k for Stevie and 5.9k for Nick - Tues sales.

Pep & Rash not even top 10 in the midweeks sad.gif which means they'll probably miss the top 15. I just hope their sales hold up well enough to get them a top 20 just so it can be recognised as a hit by Radio 1's definition

Posted by: Hadji Apr 8 2015, 03:07 PM

I hope Nick Jonas will be the one to pip Stevie McCrorie to the post by Sunday. Wiz Khalifa could have made top 40 for certain if they make the song as one of the songs from the Fast 7 OST available to cherry-pick

They are selling about what a #22-25 would so they may even miss the Top 20, but probably not quite.

In other news, the release date for Omi - "Cheerleader" has been pushed forward to 19 April which is good news but the bad news about it is that it may stop Carly Rae Jepsen from getting #1

Posted by: SevenSeed Apr 8 2015, 03:17 PM

Should be v close by the looks of it; Nick apparently has 2 promo slots coming up this week so he's got a pretty good chance of #1 now, though Jess seems to have a fairly big streaming advantage so she could still manage it!

See You Again at #59, surely will be made available on iTunes soon?

Posted by: Doctor Blind Apr 8 2015, 03:18 PM

Wiz Khalifa is NEW at 59 with "See You Again". Not on zero sales, though 86% of the 'chart sales' come from streaming. Wondering if that might make the Top 40 without an iTunes release (it's available on Amazon and a few other online retailers)

Not forgetting that the Tinashe remix is currently at #143 on iTunes too and besides, Jess Glynne doesn't have that much of a streaming advantage. She'll manage an average of 15,000 copies extra from streaming

Nick has 3 promo spots (if you can include the live lounge which usually has little effect)
Jealous will be about #50 on Spotify today, so will manage about 5,000 on streams this week, I'd predict. It'll very close, and largely depends on how well Nick can hold onto #1 on iTunes over the next couple of days, as losing the #1 effect could be quite detrimental.

Urgh. I'm sure it would shoot up if it was promoted to the a list next week, but I highly doubt that'll happen. She's more likely to be removed altogether.

Posted by: MrIndependent Apr 8 2015, 03:50 PM

Looks like a third week at #1 for Jess Glynne in singles then. James Bay could probably catch up to All Time Low, but their sales were similar yesterday and so I wouldn't be surprised if they kept the #1; overall their amounts aren't that close.

I'm surprised Jamie T's new EP doesn't appear to be in the Top 100 at all, I thought it'd outsell Black Clouds (at #41).

It's not in the Top 200 either, unless it has been added to 'Don't You Find' which has entered.

"Dear Future Husband" should secure a place in the top 40 on Sunday as it currently stands at #23 on iTunes. Pitbull & Ne-Yo should get top 20 as they're at #21 on iTunes and have streaming on their side

Hoping Stevie can at least hold on to #3 now. It seems possible, as although he's down to #8 on iTunes already he should still be selling decently. Depends how hard the weekend (streaming) hits him really; same goes for Nick Jonas.

Posted by: ► ▲ N Apr 9 2015, 03:07 PM

looking good for a Jess Glynne victory then biggrin.gif with the weekend effect she should definitely make it.

Also good to see Pep & Rash not falling from yesterday, hopefully they do a Hannah Wants and hold up reasonably well by Sunday.

Absolute head trip that Nick Jonas is heading to #1 - considering how little an impact him and the rest of the Bros made chart wise at their peak (their tours always did well here I seem to remember but I think 'SOS' was their only top 20 here?) this is huge for him.

I mean I preferred what Joe bought out a couple of years back but good on him anyway. Good to see Stevie McCrorie doing well too. Really hope it's the start of sustained success for him.

Yep, which is why they're climbing/staying stable. They've done another signing today, but I still can't see it staying top 40 when streaming is included, especially since they'll probably get a very minimal amount of digital sales this week.

Thank you!

Hoping Trouble sneaks in this week, it's doing well on iTunes but streaming is such a big hinderance now.

Hopefully The One too, #18 on iTunes now so surely it'll make it.

I must admit the singles chart looks a bit better now, some of the deadwood has gone, just needs Sam Smith and Ed Sheeran to drop away

Friday Update
Singles
1 Nick Jonas (36.6k)
2 Stevie McCrorie (35.0k) *

12 Kygo featuring Conrad
28 Pitbull featuring Ne-Yo
34 Major Lazer feat. MØ & DJ Snake
35 Bars & Melody *

Jealous to keep up on #1 please smoke.gif
And a bit of a stretch I think to wish Kygo top 10 this week, it'll almost certainly be top 10 on sales. And hope PB makes the top 25 this week. Lean On better outpeak TDFW especially seeing it's more chart friendly than the latter thinking.gif
I hope Stay Strong is barred from the top 40 this week drama.gif

I also hope the fake version of "Cheerleader" stays out by Sunday

In favour of the original I hope! thinking.gif smile.gif

I can pretty much guarantee that at least 99% of them is because they think it's the real thing...

It's #70 on Spotify/Streaming ( I have the old spotify) but that hasn't been updated for 4 days, so is probably up to around #50 by now. So streaming probably isn't hindering it THAT much smile.gif I'm almost certain it'll enter for Sunday - fingers crossed!

All the reviews say it's fake but if people know it's fake, why still buy it?

There might even be a case of the reverse happening. A lot of people might not know much about artists/versions for songs they like, but if they see it's on the chart/selling well, they might assume that it's likely what they're looking for, even if it's not tongue.gif

any info on Rihanna's songs? 45S and/or BBHMM?


Yes, both are still terrible.

Wow awful singles sales this week ohmy.gif Jess Glynne for a third week at number 1 please.

Posted by: gooddelta Apr 10 2015, 03:52 PM

Will the No.1 even pass 45k sales, what happened? ohmy.gif Easter lull or just everyone getting annoyed that Wiz Khalifa/Omi/Carly Rae have all been held back for ridiculous periods of time and boycotting iTunes *.*

Posted by: n4yr Apr 10 2015, 03:59 PM

The sales for the #1 album aren't looking much better lol

Posted by: buzz_person Apr 10 2015, 04:11 PM

As exciting as this week's Top 3 may be, those are some low numbers, even with streaming included.

However the Him remix of 45s still sounds fresh music.gif

It might pick up in the long run but I really did expect James Bay's 'Chaos and the Calm' to sell much more along the lines of George Ezra.... Only this week will be over 100k sad.gif .... I hope it does eventually get closer to the sales of George, Ed & Sam...

Posted by: ► ▲ N Apr 10 2015, 04:25 PM

with those kind of sales I think Jess Glynne should easily get to #1 on Sunday, with the weekend effect and the fact she's outselling Nick Jonas on iTunes as well as obviously being ahead on streaming.

Seems very much like a default #1 though due to big releases being held back, hopefully Wiz Khalifa is taking advantage of the low sales and releases this Sunday

Posted by: mr_aly Apr 10 2015, 04:31 PM

Imagine if Wiz Khalifa and OMI were both released on Sunday, that'd be quite an interesting battle!

(I think OMI would win that though, probably with ease)

All those built up pre-orders would ensure Omi would get a #1 debut, but I imagine his label don't wanna take any chances (this is why we rarely get interesting chart battles anymore)

Team Jess tbh.

Posted by: SITCHUAISHAAAN Apr 10 2015, 05:55 PM

Is there fake Cheerleader anywhere in the top 100?

Posted by: ETH▲N Apr 10 2015, 06:54 PM

Good GRIEF blink.gif at those sales, the No1 will be hard pressed to shift 60k for the week at this rate... sad.gif

When sales are low it adds a certain amount of unpredictability to the proceedings; you can never be quite sure how much impact a TV performance will garner, so could a Graham Norton performance help Nick Jonas to cling on? Thankfully with a substantive streaming advantage a third week for Jess Glynne looks the most likely outcome, thus stopping a pointless one week flash in the pan that no one will remember in six months time!

Posted by: Jack Apr 10 2015, 07:40 PM

I don't know why people are so against a more unpredictable #01. Jess has been there with Rather Be pt.3, she doesn't need to be at the top any longer.

I don't mind unpredictable #1's as long as they're not utterly awful. (I wouldn't have been completely against that Voice track for instance).

Those sales give me a bit more confidence for Jess with higher weekend sales/streaming but this extra promo for Nick is a concern.

Posted by: Hadji Apr 11 2015, 02:08 PM

I'm feeling confident that Wiz Khalifa will make the top 40 tomorrow, seeing as he's #1 on spotify and has few sales from Amazon

Posted by: steve201 Apr 11 2015, 06:46 PM

Tomorrow's top 40 could be one of the most unpredictable in ages due to the mess ups with streaming sales during the week!
