Thought James Blake woulda been no1!

Posted by: Bré 19th January 2019, 12:14 AM

I presume he had less pre-orders than the other that debuted ahead of him as it didn't go up for pre-order until pretty recently - he is up to #4 now (behind dodie, The Greatest Showman and Now! 101).

Really hoping that he has a chance of going top 5 this week, the highest he's ever charted before is #8.

Posted by: Steve201 19th January 2019, 10:07 AM

What were the no8 sales? Prob needs around 5-6k only to make the top 5!

Posted by: Mart!n 19th January 2019, 10:17 AM

The thing is now with HMV in administration, album sales are going to take a tumble, not sure what share HMV contributes to the chart.

Posted by: liamk97 19th January 2019, 02:06 PM

15,940 James Blake (#9, 2011)
9,599 Overgrown (#8, 2013)
5,373 The Colour in Anything (#13, 2016)

In regards to his last album, Alan Jones wrote this at the time:

I reckon he's got a good chance of debuting Top 5 tbh!

BMTH heading for #1 likely with a few other top 10 entries from Rudimental, Backstreets, Rival Sons, Trevor Horn etc

two albums in that top 10 featuring a cover of Everybody Wants To Rule the World though :'''')

Posted by: liamk97 25th January 2019, 01:49 AM

Bring Me should be comfortably #1. Not sure what to expect sales wise, I think their last album opened with 40k and I think there's a few formats for the album. Maybe similar sort of sales?

Rudimental will have a fall from grace but I think they should still clear 5k+ to make the Top 10.

Surprised to see White Lies that high! Their last album missed the top 10, could this one possibly return them there

Posted by: liamk97 1st February 2019, 01:35 AM

Just had a search and their last album sold 5,569 so similar sales would likely see them debut Top 10 with this album.

Could Busted maybe challenge for #1? Their last album sold 21k in its first week, although that was their comeback album and charted in December. Should be safe for #2.

Ian Brown and The Specials should be easily Top 10, too. I'd have said Claire Richards would be a safe Top 10 entry too due to her Steps fanbase and Radio 2 support but the album doesn't seem to have been performing as well on Amazon as I'd have expected. I mean she'll probably still make it, just not be as big an entry as she should.

Posted by: Steve201 1st February 2019, 04:52 PM

I can't see any NE selling over 10k tbh!

Not many big Releases this week, wonder whether this may challenge for #1 overall.

Brace yourselves, Rocketman is out in May, probably the next soundtrack album to grace the charts for 2019 based on Elton John

Posted by: Whoody4Paramore 22nd February 2019, 01:48 PM

It won't be as big as TGS or even ASIB. I imagine it will be on Boh Raph levels.

Posted by: legendsglory 22nd February 2019, 05:31 PM

Good to see rak su doing well.

Posted by: Steve201 22nd February 2019, 09:26 PM

1 Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper - A Star Is Born Soundtrack

After the Oscars this (and Bohemian Rhapsody) should make Top 5 overall again this week.

Are we gonna get an actual raksu album or is this what they doing releasing a lot of EPs waiting for something to stick

Some Talk Talk Albums starting to make an impression on iTunes chart after the sad news that Mark Hollis has died:

(EDIT) - Apologies for the indulgence of another update but I was a fan and impressed to see the level of the interest in Talk Talk's Recording output:

Now,

4 Talk Talk - Spirit Of Eden
13 Talk Talk - Laughing Stock
16 Talk Talk - The Very Best Of
19 Talk Talk - The Colour Of Spring
23 Mark Hollis - Mark Hollis
31 Talk Talk - Essential
110 Talk Talk - It's My Life (Remastered 1997)
210 Talk Talk - The Party's Over
308 Talk Talk - Natural History - The Very Best of Talk Talk
320 Talk Talk - Asides Besides

Posted by: Jordan Lee 26th February 2019, 03:28 PM

A Star Is Born Back at #1

(edit didn’t see it had already been posted!).

Posted by: Bjork 26th February 2019, 03:50 PM

surprised Natural History is so low, that was Talk Talk's biggest selling album back in the day

Posted by: timjimlee 26th February 2019, 04:32 PM

Agreed, must be their biggest Seller - Spirit Of Eden up to #2 now, quite impressive really!

Posted by: The Hit Parade 26th February 2019, 04:46 PM

Spirit Of Eden was trending on Twitter last night.

I'd guess maybe a few people have done what I did and finally picked up those last two albums in response to the news (I already had the Mark Hollis solo album).

Crazy competitive week
Compared to last week
Which almost had no big releases

Posted by: Jordan Lee 1st March 2019, 02:31 PM

I can see Tom Walker being official #1 album this week

With some new entries going in between #5 and #10

I still think Ariana, TGS and A Star Is Born will be at positions 2-4 probably in that order.

Posted by: timjimlee 2nd March 2019, 10:13 PM

Album Sales on iTunes must be so low these days that snippets of music on TV can push Albums up the lower reaches of the Top 500 - tonight a question on Pointless Celebrities on Country music seems to have boosted Glen Campbell (#77), Lady Antebellum (#149) and Faith Hill (#158) as well as Dolly Parton and Johnny Cash.

Glad to see ‘No Tourists’ getting a boost, I thought it might get overlooked- it should also do well on physicals too as the official store had loads of different bundles.

Posted by: Steve201 4th March 2019, 09:36 PM

Big Week Of Releases and a bit unpredictable as well, hope Sigrid triumphs overall!

Posted by: Jordan Lee 8th March 2019, 01:44 PM

Come on Dido

My all time favourite British female.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 8th March 2019, 08:56 PM

Didos now #1
And that’s before Jonathon Ross tomorrow and Sunday Brunch


Sigrid 2
Foals 3
Dave 5
James Morrison 6
David Gray 7
Maren Morris 15
Paul Weller 22
Flight Of The Concords 29

Top 10 clearout this week. Probably all new entries from this week aside from Tom dropping out.

Dave will be the most streamed I’d imagine so I’d not be surprised if he debuts higher than many above on downloads / sales.

Posted by: T’Seet 9th March 2019, 09:52 AM

OMG so excited Dido is no.1 on anything in 2019.

Posted by: timjimlee 9th March 2019, 04:48 PM

Tom Walker back to #1, his appearance on 'The One Show' last night will have given the Album a big boost.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 10th March 2019, 01:50 AM

Didos #1 again now following Jonathon Ross

Also noticed her Greatest Hits is at 48

Life for rent 161 and No Angel 180

Also several MJ albums are appearing in the chart with Number Ones the highest at 24
The Essential is at 78
History is at 81
Thriller is at 159

Posted by: Dannyboy 10th March 2019, 08:05 AM

No such thing as bad publicity I suppose haha

Posted by: Steve201 10th March 2019, 10:33 AM

This is a very interesting week albums wise - a lot of high NEs in the chart no doubt and I don't think Tom Walker will be an album that will fall THAT much.

Posted by: danG 10th March 2019, 02:42 PM

A lot of people online are quite adamant about his innocence so I'm not surprised he's getting a boost from it. Number Ones probably heading for the top 40 this week then.

Posted by: The Hit Parade 10th March 2019, 06:49 PM

We know that but surely those people already have his albums? Unless it's some sort of campaign.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 10th March 2019, 07:26 PM

I think a campaign would’ve worked better had there been one set album / single to get back in the charts.

Posted by: timjimlee 12th March 2019, 01:17 PM

James Morrison up to #3 after appearance on BBC Breakfast this morning, seems to have stepped up his Promo as it looks like he will miss Top 10 overall - really should have deferred Release to next week.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 12th March 2019, 08:20 PM

Dave is #1 now

Posted by: T’Seet 12th March 2019, 08:29 PM

It was a bit too much to expect Dido to hold it. I hope she still manages no.2 in the official chart.

Posted by: The Hit Parade 12th March 2019, 09:20 PM

I didn't actually realise James Morrison's album was out this week until I saw it in a supermarket. Sainsbury's unfortunately.

Posted by: diamondtooth 12th March 2019, 09:58 PM

Why ‘Sainsbury’s unfortunately’?

Posted by: Jordan Lee 12th March 2019, 10:29 PM

Dave started a twitter campaign as he’s lacking on pure sales which led to his climb :

Dido still #2 though is there anymore promo for her this week does anyone know?

Posted by: The Hit Parade 12th March 2019, 10:56 PM

There's another supermarket where it would be more amusing to find a record by James Morrison.

Posted by: Bré 12th March 2019, 11:51 PM

Dave coming through with the social media campaign.

Jack Savoretti to have a decent shot at the #1 album this week probably? His last two albums both went top 10 and this one seems to have more promo / 'buzz' about it.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 15th March 2019, 01:03 AM

I’m thinking Jack will be number one or top three.

Sophie low top ten as well.

Posted by: Bjork 15th March 2019, 07:13 AM

Pretty impressive for Michael Ball to be #2 on downloads. #1 on Amazon too and I believe his first album since the two Alfie Boe collaborations, so I'm guessing he'll be safe for the official #1.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 22nd March 2019, 02:41 PM

Should sell well in the lead up to Mothers Day as well so probably this weeks #1.

I’m enjoying the album chart much more now it’s not just TGS staying there each week.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 26th March 2019, 02:11 PM

Carpenters are #1 with the Orchestra album and their GOLD Greatest Hits is at #13.

Gwon lucy hopefully she can do well with this

Posted by: timjimlee 4th May 2019, 08:13 AM

P!nk back to top all ready, suspect she may grab a second week at #1 overall.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 4th May 2019, 10:49 AM

Wow if she does that it would be the first time she’s managed more than one week at #1 in the albums.

Guessing that Vampire Weekend will be #1 in the first sets of midweeks though.

Posted by: Bré 4th May 2019, 05:05 PM

Vampire Weekend have never had a #1 (or #2) album before, the hype for this one might be a bit higher as they've been gone for a while but I'm not sure they'll be able to beat P!nk's second week sales. Should be their first top 2 album though hopefully.

Posted by: Bjork 4th May 2019, 05:13 PM

just checked and their last album was a #3 but with high opening sales of 27,805, that was more than 5 years ago so things have changed a lot and hard to compare

Gareth Emery relevant enough for the iTunes top 20 *.* (up to #20). Not that it has any chance of charting officially but that's good to see.

#1 is the new Clubland compilation 100% Clubland Classix.

Did not expect 'RTRN II JUNGLE' to be anywhere near that high considering C&S have totally abandoned the mainstream! Was only expecting low top 40 or so for this album but maybe it could be like top 20 based on that?

I presume Lewis should get a third week at #1 but Skepta should have a solid shot at #2 again. Hope Denzel Curry's album will chart somewhere too (his last album got to #62).

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 31st May 2019, 10:26 PM

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 7th June 2019, 10:38 AM

I imagine Jonas Bros will be higher on physicals as well.

Glad to see Motionless in White up high as well!

Posted by: Medellíam 13th June 2019, 11:48 PM

1. Madonna (also #16)
2. Bruce Springsteen
3. Bastille

If the official Top 3 could look like that next Friday, that would be perfect.

Posted by: timjimlee 14th June 2019, 07:04 PM

Bruce #1 now but Madonna likely to reclaim top spot later tonight (after her appearance on The Graham Norton Show). Personally would prefer Bastille to get the number 1 overall (their set in the Isle Of Wight Festival is on Sky Arts tomorrow night).

Posted by: Mart!n 14th June 2019, 07:24 PM

Some of Michael Jackson's albums might just re-enter after Sundays TV special marking his 10 year's since his death.

Posted by: Nick Jonas 15th June 2019, 03:39 PM

Anyone else think Madonna could struggle to get a Top 3 album come Friday? #2 on iTunes and nowhere to be seen on Spotify...

Posted by: timjimlee 15th June 2019, 04:34 PM

Think it will be a Top 3 of New entries with Madonna finishing third.

Posted by: Nick Jonas 15th June 2019, 05:55 PM

What about Lewis Capaldi - he did nearly 15k just in streams last week?

Posted by: stevejb4u 15th June 2019, 07:22 PM

I wouldn't under estimate Madonna, she has multiple physical edtions out there! Itunes is not true indicator of who will be number one anymore. So I think she'll have it in the bag, we had some promo happen this week two interviews & a TV show that was recorded live. Rave reviews past few days as well
Madonna no1 please ☺

Posted by: ___∆___ 15th June 2019, 07:39 PM

^^This! Madonna has far too many versions available to rule her out of the #1 spot -

Standard CD
Deluxe CD
HMV Exclusive CD
CD Boxset
Cassette Boxset
Black Vinyl
Blue Vinyl
Picture Disc Vinyl
Clear Vinyl
Standard Cassette
Glitter Cassette
Blue Cassette

Posted by: Medellíam 16th June 2019, 04:02 AM

Bruce has been #1 on Amazon pre-orders for weeks and will no doubt have a Father's Day boost (funnily enough I think Rebel Heart was released on Mother's Day week). I'd love Madonna to be #1 but I just can't see it. I hope she can hold #2 though.

Posted by: stevejb4u 16th June 2019, 10:40 AM

Madonna was on pre orders weeks before Bruce was, fathers day is Sunday so most will have bought it now. So charts are released on Fri so plenty of days to boost Madame Xrs sales if she needs them

Posted by: timjimlee 16th June 2019, 07:42 PM

On reflection you could be right, Bastille don't seem to be holding up as well as I thought.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 20th June 2019, 05:30 PM

Posted by: Steve201 21st June 2019, 04:39 PM

An interesting week, Will Young will likely sell enough physicals to prevail. Thought Two Door Cinema would be doing better but think their albums usually don't make the top spot?!

Posted by: The Hit Parade 21st June 2019, 09:52 PM

The previous Two Door Cinema Club albums peaked at 24, 2 and 5.

Posted by: Steve201 29th June 2019, 01:53 AM

Posted by: ___∆___ 29th June 2019, 07:31 PM

Lewis has moved to #1 following his Glastonbury performance - hopefully Kylie reclaims it tomorrow after she performs.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 29th June 2019, 08:21 PM

Looking like Kylie vs Lewis for official number one perhaps?

Intrigued to see if Janet has a impact her set isn’t going down well apparently.

Posted by: Steve201 29th June 2019, 09:11 PM

Didn't see it, why not?

Posted by: ___∆___ 29th June 2019, 10:13 PM

I’m hoping Kylie’s physicals (3 Vinyls, 5 Cassettes and 2 CDs) might offset his Glastonbury boost/streaming.

Posted by: Bjork 30th June 2019, 06:34 AM

wasn't expecting Kylie to do that well, on account on this not being her first GH, but looks like she has a chance at #1

Posted by: Jordan Lee 30th June 2019, 08:15 AM

Sound issues but she was accused of miming too.

Posted by: timjimlee 30th June 2019, 08:40 AM

Lewis streaming may well keep him at top spot.

Kylie needs a good performance at Glastonbury today go grab some sales

Posted by: 777666jason 30th June 2019, 09:27 AM

I dunno if she did a bad one fell of the stage or something would give her more publicity give her a better chance

Posted by: ___∆___ 30th June 2019, 09:56 AM

Kylie will get a boost regardless - on social media there seems to be so much good feeling towards Kylie and the performance, media coverage will be huge and she has fan power this week of people buying multiple copies in addition to any extra sales generated by glastonbury.

The Killers have pushed her down to #3 on iTunes now.

Posted by: timjimlee 30th June 2019, 11:14 AM

Suspect Lewis Capaldi will triumph overall this week, Kylie would have had a better chance with new material, a twelfth compilation Album is pushing it a bit for me.
Personally looking forward to see the impact The Cure performance has tonight, one of the best Live bands over the years and their classic Songs have stood the test of time.

Posted by: sammy01 30th June 2019, 11:16 AM

Kylie will be number 1, her fans will have ordered 5 cassettes to shove in a draw and never get played.

Posted by: timjimlee 30th June 2019, 11:22 AM

You could be right, hadn't factored in the devotion of the Kylie faithful.

Posted by: ___∆___ 30th June 2019, 12:58 PM

Yep I’ve followed in the footsteps of every other stan release this year and ordered every copy (3 vinyls, 2 CDs, 5 cassettes), all to remain unopened. Everyone releases multiple album formats now - Kylie just does it a lot better than most

Posted by: Steve201 12th July 2019, 04:26 PM

Feels like metal is getting more and more popular - loads of metal bands having their highest charting albums ever recently.

I've seen a few young people recently wearing Sabaton shirts and hoodies, they definitely seem to be one of the more popular ones with younger fans.

Posted by: Herbs 16th August 2019, 07:15 AM

That’ll be Ed Sheeran going straight back to number one

Posted by: danG 16th August 2019, 09:54 AM

You may be right but I think that's also due to album sales being really low and metal fans being more likely to buy albums than fans of certain other genres.

Would Lana not be a bigger physical seller!?

Posted by: Jordan Lee 30th August 2019, 05:52 PM

Idk acts like TOOL usually do well on physicals too. I’ll admit I had no clue who they were until a few weeks back. I think the have a small but dedicated hardcore fanbase here in the UK.

Lana will do better throughout the week I think she has more casual support and she’ll have better streaming too.

But I think TOOL will be ahead slightly in the midweeks.

Posted by: Bré 30th August 2019, 06:15 PM

TOOL's biggest strength would be in physical sales! But as someone pointed out elsewhere the CD version is apparently £80 which is not going to help them.

Posted by: Steve201 30th August 2019, 06:16 PM

Don't know much about TOOL either until they were discussed in here, seem to be big in the US so that usually translates over here. As you say thoigh they are a niche act so will have decent fanbase sales.

Posted by: jszmiles 30th August 2019, 06:52 PM

She will be. Tool have only one physical version which is already sold out everywhere. No sign of regular CD neither vinyl. I don't know their lead on iTunes but it must be big as they beat Lana Taylor and Ed.

Posted by: Nick6 30th August 2019, 06:59 PM

TOOL have big, loyal fan base. Not surprised by their performance.

Posted by: smidsy101 30th August 2019, 09:16 PM

As much as I'd love Lana to get it (the album is sensational), I can't see her doing over 25k, and I'd say Tool would be pushing over 30k.

Posted by: danG 30th August 2019, 09:54 PM

Lmao it actually is!! No wonder their fans are downloading it instead (though I suspect a fair chunk of their fanbase would actually buy the CD).
I expect their streaming will be decent too.

Posted by: 365 2nd September 2019, 12:24 PM

Lana is finally #1 on iTunes.

Sam Fender already at #1! Emeli Sande at #2

Posted by: ___∆___ 13th September 2019, 12:21 AM

Sam is going to have a massive first week

Posted by: Hadji 13th September 2019, 12:25 AM

Emeli looking like she’ll be denied a second #1 album. That’s bad considering her debut was the best seller of 2012 and nearly became the best seller of 2013. Still find it embarrassing that Olly denied her a #1 album

Posted by: Jordan Lee 13th September 2019, 12:42 AM

Ollys one of the biggest album artists of the decade though

He’s a fair few million sellers so him beating Emeli wasn’t that big a shock. If anyone was to beat her he’s someone I could sort of respect anyways. Did her last album go platinum in the end?

Emeli managing top 5 in my opinion would be a success this time around. I don’t know anyone who actually knows she has an album out tbh outside This forum.

I’d love her to actually enter at #2 behind Sam but I think Ed and Post will overtake her with streams.

Posted by: Steve201 13th September 2019, 12:47 AM

Emeli is simply looking for sales outside of this forums normal niche - she's advertised a lot on daytime to and is on daytime orientated shows and the radio 2 playlist!

Posted by: ___∆___ 15th September 2019, 12:18 PM

Sam Fender won’t be falling from the top spot until Liam releases his album on Friday. Also he’s holding the #1 and #2 position of Amazon for his standard and signed CD (which has now just sold out). Can’t wait for the first week sales.

Posted by: Steve201 19th September 2019, 10:37 PM

Does the Mercury Prize that's announced tonight have any affect on the albums chart anymore?

Posted by: Bré 19th September 2019, 10:47 PM

The last three winners all re-entered the top 15 after winning (Skepta to #13, Sampha to #7 and Wolf Alice to #15) although the revival of particularly the latter two was very brief. Of course Dave is still in the chart anyway, so he'll probably have a similar effect to Skepta, spiking higher up the chart then quickly receding back to where it currently is within a couple of weeks.

Posted by: Steve201 19th September 2019, 11:22 PM

I can imagine if they chose a commercial winner it could help it a lot better especially Dave who has sold decently since release on streams especially.

The Beatles for #1 tbh.

Big climb for Noel Gallagher's EP up to #3.

Posted by: Bjork 27th September 2019, 11:34 AM

does the noel ep qualify for the album charts? never remember the rules when it comes to eps

Posted by: Bré 27th September 2019, 11:39 AM

His last one didn't so I presume this one won't either. I think these EPs may be in the limbo of being too long to count as singles but too short to count as albums so they end up counting for neither chart but I may be wrong about that (the last one may have counted to the singles chart, I don't remember - certainly didn't get him a top 100 single anyway).

Posted by: timjimlee 27th September 2019, 12:36 PM

Kanye West Album was originally scheduled for release today but seems to have been delayed - not untypical for one of his releases...

Posted by: Steve201 27th September 2019, 07:35 PM

Mark Ronson's Late Night Feelings is also up to #2 following his BBC documentary.

Posted by: Steve201 13th October 2019, 05:08 PM

Mark Ronsons album is one of the best this year imo, grown massively for me. So many potential singles!!

Not sure if Elbows previous opening sales but I imagine they are guaranteed opening at no1? Prob do between 25-40k!

Posted by: Bjork 13th October 2019, 06:34 PM

I also think Elbow are a surefire #1
Last time around they did nearly 40K in Feb 2017 with Little Fictions (1 Elbow 39,643 sales)

Posted by: Steve201 13th October 2019, 06:57 PM

Stereophonics will be quite likely for the official #1 this week I'd imagine

Posted by: Bréxit 25th October 2019, 04:20 PM

Kanye's new album is finally out now, although don't think it'll beat Stereophonics to #1 anyway (Stereophonics' last album did twice the first week sales of Kanye's), maybe another #2 though.

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 25th October 2019, 04:59 PM

And Kanye has no physicals out

Posted by: Bjork 25th October 2019, 06:29 PM

but urban artists don't sell physical albums

Posted by: Bjork 25th October 2019, 06:39 PM

was checking now and the last 2 Stereophonics album did almost the same, Keeping the Village Alive did 44K in Sept 2015
and Scream Above the Clouds did 43K in Oct 2017... seems like their fanbase is pretty intact, so should be a pretty easy #1 for them

also checked James Blunt... His 2013 album Moon Landing opened with 41K but that preceded by his last big hit (Bonfire Heart)... his next album, The Afterlife in Mar 2017 opened with half of that, 24K, and just like this time he didn't have any hits from the album

there's also the new Rick Astley GH, if his fans are as crazy as Kylie's, he might sell a lot of physicals...

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 25th October 2019, 06:40 PM

Kanye is releasing just a vinyl in the UK, but it's not out until January.

Posted by: pippa 25th October 2019, 06:46 PM

Stereophonics should comfortably go to Number 1 and it is hard to predict who will sell more between James Blunt and Rick Astley.
Rick Astley, Best o,f is re worked versions, which generally, are not as popular as Best Of Colllections that house the originals.

Posted by: gavindeejay 25th October 2019, 07:23 PM

Here for a Stereophonics Number 1 album this week! Kanye can get lost!

Posted by: Bjork 25th October 2019, 07:27 PM

Kaney has gone crazy, he's been hanging out too often with Donald Trump

Posted by: Bjork 25th October 2019, 07:31 PM

nope, Rick Astley has both the originals + some reworking tucked at the end of the GH, at least on Spotify, it's 30 tracks in total and
it's just the last 9 that are re-imagined, the first 21 are the original versions not reworked

Stereophonics at #3 and #7 so should still be #1 overall.

My signed Amazon copy is ‘delayed’ due to stock issues which is frustrating.

Outside chance of Michael Kiwanuka grabbing a second #1 album maybe? Probably between him, ELO and Krept & Konan (who'll obviously do much better on streaming) for highest new entry anyway although not sure any of them will sell well enough to prevent just having Ed return to #1 or something. I suppose the ELO album could move a pretty good number of physical sales, don't remember how well their last album sold. This new Kiwanuka album has had a couple of pretty good singles, I'm here for his continued success xx

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 1st November 2019, 01:15 AM

I'd be happy with ELO or Michael at #1, either way it would be another indie/alt artist at the top!

I wonder if the Children in Need album would sell enough to be #1 if it was included on the main chart?

Posted by: Steve201 1st November 2019, 01:28 AM

I'd be here for that, he deserves a lot more acknowledgement. What'd his last album sell at no1 like 18k !

Posted by: Bjork 1st November 2019, 07:19 AM

rooting for Michael Kiwanuka but probably will be ELO

the last Kiwanuka album hit #1 but was one of the lowest #1s ever with just 11k... but I think he's a bit more popular now thanks to Big Little Lies

Posted by: omrimayo 1st November 2019, 07:26 AM

One of the best albums of the year, he's so so so deserves this number 1 but I doubt he'll get it.

Posted by: dj_tim_e 1st November 2019, 07:38 AM

just checked and the last ELO album opened with 61K on week 1 in NOV 2015,
the market was much stronger then to the point they "only" made it to #4

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 1st November 2019, 02:44 PM

Looks like they'll probably make it this week then

Posted by: Bjork 1st November 2019, 02:52 PM

sadly yes, would much prefer kiwanuka, just listened to the album and is stunning

Posted by: Steve201 1st November 2019, 07:35 PM

Not a massive week of releases really considering it's Nov 1st!

Posted by: Sleepy Rollo 1st November 2019, 08:16 PM

ELO at no.1 would be remarkable. Their 'best of' compilation was no.1 a few years ago after Glastonbury but their last studio album to reach no.1 was Time in 1981 which was the first album I ever bought! Will some potential buyers of the new album be put off by its short 32 minute length? Jeff is not quite providing value for money by only putting 10 three minute songs on it.

Posted by: Bré 1st November 2019, 08:18 PM

Ah, ELO's last album's opening sales were much higher than I thought they were - obviously will be a bit lower this time but they'd need a really huge dip to not get #1 this time on a relatively dead week. Kiwanuka could still be #2 though hopefully.

Posted by: The Hit Parade 1st November 2019, 08:35 PM

When I was the age most people on this site are, I would never have imagined that I would one day see somebody refer to ELO as "indie/alt".

Posted by: Steve201 15th November 2019, 08:23 AM

Sales for Westlife could be the fastest of the year imo!

Posted by: Charis 15th November 2019, 09:57 AM

I really didn't expect such competition from Celine Dion, considering her position, #2. Of course we don't know what's the difference between Westlife and Celine... Anyone has any indication if Spectrum is selling?

Posted by: Jordan Lee 15th November 2019, 10:02 AM

Celines #2 sales I think could be bigger than most #1 sales this year! I think she’ll hold up consistently too. It’s a shame she wasn’t releasing a week or two earlier as she’d have easily got number one in my opinion.

I can see Westlife doing around 90K and Celine 35-40K.

Posted by: jszmiles 15th November 2019, 10:10 AM

Were Westlife ever a big album seller? I think they may be not that far ahead of Celine (she has another verison at 15)

Posted by: Lomadz 15th November 2019, 10:13 AM

Yep, massive album sellers. I remember when they beat Oasis and Beatles with over 200k in a week. They could reach 100k this week imo. Celine will be front loaded but should get top 3.

Posted by: Lomadz 15th November 2019, 10:14 AM

You wind up

Posted by: Charis 15th November 2019, 10:17 AM

Beaten Spice Girls in 2000, and yes many more since then, U2, Oasis, beatles... Their albums faded the last couple of years before the split up.... I doubt it's going to shift 90.000 in one week - we haven't seen this number for a long time in the albums.. But yes i am more surprised by Celine Dion...

Posted by: Bjork 15th November 2019, 10:21 AM

Celine's album is very good, and she knows her target audience

unlike Westlife... who've made in album for the wrong target audience... they had to make an album for their old fans, not for the Ed Sheeran generation

Posted by: myxxd 15th November 2019, 10:23 AM

#21 now on Apple Music bjork

Posted by: Bjork 15th November 2019, 10:26 AM

lol you have to put things in context and not exaggerate... the Spice were finished by 2000, everybody would have beaten them

they've beaten Oasis/Beatles/U2 with studio album vs Best Ofs situations so not a proper comparison either

so sure they were good album sellers but they were good at choosing release week too like they were in singles

Posted by: Lomadz 15th November 2019, 10:30 AM

See your point but think Westlife will be far too strong this week, Celine may do better overall though.

Posted by: 777666jason 15th November 2019, 11:31 AM

So really you saying it should dlop because they are catering to their fans , but really would a dollly parton album with ariana grande type tracks be successful or a rod stewrt album with ed sheeran tracks

Posted by: sammy01 15th November 2019, 03:01 PM

Westlife's album will do big numbers I'm expecting over 80k first week.

Posted by: Lomadz 15th November 2019, 04:18 PM

I'd imagine Stormzy will have bigger streaming figures.

Harry will probably have higher physical sales though, and he has a lot more physical formats avaliable.

True and this week more than others will have significant physical sales. An interesting week lies ahead.

harry spent 12 hours at #1, he's #2 now.

Posted by: Mr. C. Joel 13th December 2019, 02:41 PM

Stormzy will absolutely SMASH the album chart, I don't think Harry will even come close.

Apple Music have literally splashed Stormzy everywhere and calling it 'Happy Stormzy Day'

Posted by: Michael Bubré 13th December 2019, 05:00 PM

I think Stormzy will beat Harry on streams and downloads (surprised that Harry was initially ahead on iTunes!) but Harry will comfortably win on physical sales, a question of which will outweigh the other. I could still see either getting #1.

Posted by: ChristmaSteve201 13th December 2019, 10:08 PM

I'm just hoping the sales are great all round!

Posted by: 777666jason 13th December 2019, 11:02 PM

Think harry could get highest sales for a number 2 this year

Posted by: ChristmaSteve201 13th December 2019, 11:06 PM

What was that? Robbie this week?

Posted by: Jordan Lee 13th December 2019, 11:06 PM

I feel like Rod and Robbie might prove competition for Harry tbh.

Stormzy will stream well but his actual sales won’t be that high he might be like #5 or something on sales only. But overall he should be #1. On streams I can see him doing like 40K at least tbh mixed with his sales too he could push for 60K. I can’t see Harry doing that.

Harry will do better on sales but less good on streams.

Stormzy will have the better chart run of the two though. Harry might debut high then drop but remain consistent in the 21-40 range of the chart. Streams will benefit Stormzy.

Posted by: Crazy Chris-tmas 13th December 2019, 11:09 PM

As far as CD sales go, Rod still top on Amazon, Stormy at 10 and Harry at 16. Supermarket sales will be high though.

Pleasing to see Lana's "Norman F*****g Rockwell!" back in Top 10, not sure whether it has been reduced anywhere but I have seen appearing in a lot of Year End Lists of Best Albums, richly deserved.

I assume there'll be a JME new entry this week or is he the rapper that only released it analogue last month?

Posted by: Bré 28th December 2019, 02:45 PM

This is the same album, it was only physical exclusive for about a month it turns out.
