Why on earth? I can't see him getting #1 missing the two biggest sales days of the week...

Well that won't be why, but Michael and Little Mix will probably beat him.

Thanks to The Weeknd losing two days of sales, Little Mix will most likely spend a second week at the top unless Busted can throw a spanner in the works

Shed a Light is amazing and so refreshing after a year of mostly tropical.house and future bass in chart dance..hopefully it will do well enough on itunes and spotify this week to enter top 40 officially.

His label. They put the album to Sunday. I had my hopes up that he'd be releasing tonight so I went on iTunes to go and download it and it says it's out on Sunday.

I'm sure The Weeknd's album was late being put up for pre order and, whenever I've checked the Amazon Music Chart, he's only been appearing low Top 100, so I feel like he was set to underperform anyway...

His label want him to flop and for another artist to succeed? mellow.gif There must be some kind of reason behind it, it's a silly move in terms of chart positions but I guess he probably doesn't mind too much and it will be top 5 at the very least regardless. Honestly I wasn't convinced he'd beat Little Mix and Michael Ball this week anyway, particularly with Christmas shopping starting to build up at the weekends.

Posted by: Joe. Nov 25 2016, 12:36 AM

I think Weeknd will do huge streaming and digital sales - enough at most times of the year for a #1 but with physical season now fully in swing it didn't stand as much of a chance.

Posted by: Serg Mix Nov 25 2016, 12:37 AM

Screaming at this theory, I'm quite sure Weeknds label talked with Elizabeth and she kindly asked him to move to Sunday so Little Mix can beat him for 2(!)nd week at the top

None. Some pre-order albums in the past have said Sunday and they end up releasing it on Friday which I hope is the case for this album

Yeah, I can see him doing very well on streaming, even if it did underperform on other formats. Can't see any of the album tracks (that haven't been made available before this week) reaching the Top 40 but I expect a few entries to the Top 100, even with two days missing.

I can see The Weeknd putting an end to Drake's run at the top of the album streaming chart which his previous album managed to top

I don't think that Starboy will be released on Sunday, although I'm aware that this is the 'expected release date' on most of the iTunes stores.

Personally, this is a way his label is doing to maximize the sales in the US, so they are going to release the album first there in less than a hour and, after that, it will be out worldwide. I mean, they wanted to prevent early releases because of the time zones.

Posted by: omrimayo Nov 25 2016, 05:35 AM

So it's on Spotify and others. Someone can confirm Starboy is also available for buying?

Posted by: Joe. Nov 25 2016, 11:39 AM

It's such a silly conspiracy. Firstly, major labels wouldn't do that. As if Sony would pay Universal so that an album that's already gotten to #1 could be there again.

I really hope Schulz & Guetta can make it into the top ten during the Christmas period and new year, sounds like a proper anthem to celebrate during New Year's Eve!

If this becomes #1 at the start of 2017 then it will probably stay as my favorite #1 throughout the year! Their best single ever. yahoo.gif

On a brighter note it could be he death throws for this type of music a bit like when Scouting for Girls got some hits at the end of the new wave indie era!!

Olly Perform his current hit on Graham Norton is good to see, I feared he would move on to soon again!


It's not really too soon though... 'Grow Up' was dead and gone about 2 months ago and got a belated boost... he's since announced a new single which is probably expected to impact in the new year (Expected being the key word).

Posted by: ThePensmith Nov 26 2016, 05:56 AM

Yeah "Years & Years" is his next single. To be honest he did the same on the last album with "Up", starting promo on that a week after "Never Been Better" went to #1 and that went onto become one of his biggest hits. He's performing at the BRITs nominations live launch, Michael McIntyre's Big Show and Christmas Top of the Pops in the coming month and a bit as well which will all be big boosts.

I'm really loving the Human track, it really sounds different from what's in the singles chart at the moment, there is nothing really like it, its different and unique and it really stands out. That boost is pretty much huge ohmy.gif if that goes to #1, it be my favourite #1 of the year, but I fear its going to get stuck behind Clean Bandit, if it does go top 5 on Friday officially.

Posted by: The Emperor Nov 27 2016, 12:02 AM

Why in indie/rock/alternative is it predominatly acoustic singer songwriters making the charts this decade rather than rock groups. For alternative would much prefer more stuff like Bring Me The Horizon - Drown or You Me At Six -The Swarm rather than Rag N Bone Man or Hozier.

Plus the fact that he has a very commercial song here with Human. I've heard a lot of his stuff over the years and while a lot of it is strong, none of it particularly sounded like a hit.

I've just read he's from Uckfield, a very bland and uninspiring small Sussex town that I would have never imagined a chart-topping act coming from! In fact I don't know of a single other famous person from Uckfield at all.

Ah ok, I have skimmed over what's on the kworbs site but I don't really understand how to read the stats so I just left it. happy.gif

I thought that at first but it's actually simple once you get the hang of it.
Dark green & light green means that the song has gained in performance since the last update
Dark red & light red vice versa.

Clean Bandit are at number one so therefore they're 1.000, and the number 2 (human) is at 0.6262 which means that Human is selling 62% of what CB are.

I doubt they'd make 'Alive' a proper single again, it's been a reasonable hit already even with its low peak.

'Move Your Body' (Alan Walker Remix) would be a great choice.

Posted by: Lenny Nov 28 2016, 08:34 PM

I hope they don't move on to 'Alive', it's by far the worst Sia track I think I've heard :/ I can see why it was turned down and I don't get why it has been covered so much on X-Factor this year!

I'd love a traditional track like this to go top 40 again - here's the chart peaks of artists that have brought the latter two into the chart -

Silent Night -

Date entered Artist Title Peak Chart run
14/12/1991 Sinead O'Connor Silent Night 60 {60}-68-64-73->4
07/12/1991 Simon And Garfunkel A Hazy Shade Of Winter/Silent Night 30 70-34-32-{30}-34-71->6
03/12/1988 Bros Cat Among The Pigeons/Silent Night 2 {2}-4-5-6-8-10-21-51->8
16/12/1978 The Dickies Silent Night 47 53-{47}-47-47->4
20/12/1952 Bing Crosby Silent Night, Holy Night 8 {8}-8->2

So Bing Cosby in 1952 was the last to get a big hit with it - Bros no2 hit was a double A side and I'm sure AirPlay was focuses on the pop track.

Posted by: Ryan. Nov 29 2016, 09:12 PM

I still think Saara will be paired with Mariah, but if they do go for something less predictable then O Holy Night is definitely a likely choice as it is on her own Christmas album!

I realise how late I am discovering this, but given that they're responsible for one of the most overplayed and annoying songs of all time almost three years ago (R****r B*)...I really, really like Rockabye, it sounds like a Europop hit circa 1997-8 at points. Glad it hit #1!

WTF, Saara Aalto is on X-Factor?

I guess she ran out of tv shows to compete on in Finland, so she moved internationally.

sick2.gif at that Charli XCX one being top 10.

Superlove and Break the Rules were a bit immature but had great funky dancepop backing tracks, ATAP is just slow and really not my kind of thing. Its not as bad as Fancy though (the worst song of the decade for me so far).

Mark probably uses a search which includes Christmas so maybe she doesn't come up tbf. All the xmas tracks are doing better this year because sales are well down so its a bit like the iTunes charts in 2007-09 eras. They are still 'selling' the same I would say.

Posted by: BrookeOlivia Dec 1 2016, 12:48 PM

She's #81 combined according to Digital Spy, Currently #132 and #173 now so still rising, I wasn't saying that in rude way by the way, I just didn't understand why Mark wasn't adding One More Sleep to the Christmas song updates when its got two versions in top 200 and as done for a few days now.

One More Sleep - Leona Lewis at currently at #136 & #180, Mark never seems to put her in the daily Christmas song updates for some reason.

I think its doing better then last year at this point should be in the top 100 in the coming days.


i think because he is posting the top 100 itunes not the combined one..missing also Ariana,Slade etc..

His update yesterday / other days as been top 200 and as had Ariana etc in however never Leona, I wasn't at all saying it in a funny or rude way so hopefully he doesn't take it that way, Just be nice to see her as part of an xmas update so I can just come on here and check her iTunes numbers instead of going into iTunes and looking.

She's #81 combined according to Digital Spy, Currently #132 and #173 now so still rising, I wasn't saying that in rude way by the way, I just didn't understand why Mark wasn't adding One More Sleep to the Christmas song updates when its got two versions in top 200 and as done for a few days now.



FYI, there's absolutely no way of working out the combined position of songs outside the top 100, because there's no way of knowing the gaps between songs, which could be huge or minuscule. Whoever said that on Digital Spy is taking a wild or educated guess. They probably aren't way off though, I expect it to be around the 80 - 100 mark somewhere.

You can work it out looking at the Christmas chart roughly. You can view the holiday chart with popularity here - http://www.lpb5.com/index.php?Region=143444&Chart=8&numbers=Get+Chart+%28Numbers%29

It only has one version at 0.14, but the second version is about the same position on iTunes main chart as Justin Bieber's Mistletoe which is at ~0.1. So combined Leona's at around 0.24 on the Christmas holiday chart popularity. Wham!'s second version is ~0.2 (#85) whilst Buble is at ~0.28 (#59). So you can estimate that combined, Leona's between #59-#85 on the main iTunes chart. Of course this doesn't take into account combined versions of every song, as it could be higher/lower if those were included as well. It isn't all based on a wild guess. smile.gif

Well, I did state that it would be an educated guess and that you can probably work out a range rather than a very specific figure of "81" which was given, which is the same as what you just said.

At least the MORAL winner of the Xmas songs is 'Fairytale Of New York' every year.

Mariah:
17 Mariah Carey All I Want For Christmas Is You
45 Mariah Carey All I Want for Christmas Is You
566 Justin Bieber & Mariah Carey All I Want for Christmas Is You (Superfestive!) [Duet With Mariah Carey]

Pogues:
36 The Pogues Fairytale of New York (feat. Kirsty MacColl)
44 The Pogues Fairytale of New York
354 The Pogues Fairytale of New York (feat. Kirsty MacColl)
395 The Pogues Fairytale of New York (feat. Kirsty MacColl)
680 The Pogues Fairytale of New York

Pogues having more versions than Mariah in the top 1500, clearly this proves that FONY is the better song. *.*

There's a new JESSIE J single tomorrow guys, I'm sure Buzzjack will be all over that x

Posted by: Jonjo Dec 1 2016, 06:52 PM

Yaaasss! If that's real, I'm genuinely excited!

Posted by: mr_pmt Dec 1 2016, 06:56 PM

Is that an actual single related to an album, or one of her many random movie soundtrack songs?

I'm interested to see how she does with her next era... personally I'm expecting that to be it for her now successwise.

Posted by: twentyonemdh Dec 1 2016, 07:09 PM

OMG. Sigala, Alan Walker, Jessie J, is that it? All could be top 40 next week tbh.

Posted by: 🎄cqmerqn🎄 Dec 1 2016, 07:19 PM

Can Jessie J remain irrelevant pls

Posted by: JosephCarey Dec 1 2016, 07:22 PM

An article on the Jessie J single from josepvinaixa:

QUOTE
Get ready! Queen of trademarks collaborations English singer-songwriter and TV personality Jessie J is back to the business with a brand new track!

The song is called “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” and it’s the main theme of Makeup Forever’s new campaign “#iamanartist“, which arrives this Friday on December 2nd along the release of the song on digital retailers and streaming services.

Besides, Jessie is currently in the studio shaping her next and fourth studio album, follow-up 2014’s “Sweet Talker“, which will be availble sometime next year via Lava and Island Records.

The song is a cover of Frankie Valli’s original with the same name released in 1967.


So not for the album by the looks of things, will give it a spin anyway as I actually quite like Jessie's music most of the time!

Posted by: Dancember Dec 1 2016, 07:24 PM

Is that the same Can't Take My Eyes Off You that Andy Williams sang then?

Dreading to hear this cover if that's the case :|

yup, and I'm not expecting a good cover of this really...

Posted by: Davidson Dec 1 2016, 07:25 PM

It's just a cover for an ad campaign. Won't have anything to do with new material or do much chart wise.

Posted by: Jonjo Dec 1 2016, 07:26 PM

Ahh. In that case, I think I'll give it a miss :')

Posted by: Michael Bubré Dec 1 2016, 07:38 PM

Mariah isn't always the highest Xmas song anyway... she's usually ahead to begin with but then The Pogues often/usually(? - I forget) overtake her as Christmas approaches (on sales at least, they probably never will with streams counted as Mariah is always #1 there)

Posted by: mr_pmt Dec 1 2016, 07:40 PM

Amazing progress for Charli, but she's been 59p for 2 or 3 weeks now. Watch her go back to full price at midnight.
