new entry predictions

Top 5: Shawn & Camila
Top 10: Stormzy
Top 30: JAY1
Top 40: Lil Nas X [Panini] / Bugzy Malone ft Aitch / Digga D & Russ
Top 75: Gerry Cinnamon / Nicki Minaj / Lil Nas X & Cardi B [Rodeo]
Top 100: T Mulla ft Hardy Caprio / Marshmello & Kane Brown

I'm also going to predict Katy Perry climbing to #11 this week and frustratingly peaking there.

Posted by: jimwatts Jun 23 2019, 10:25 PM

Can't really blame anyone for losing count, but if Ed & Justin are #1 again this week it will be for a 7th week, not a 6th.

Posted by: 1990 Jun 23 2019, 10:43 PM

Really hope Katy can nab a top 10 this week.

Posted by: Bjork Jun 24 2019, 05:19 AM

thinking Señorita will be in at #2 and Katy will finally go low top 10

Posted by: AcerBen Jun 24 2019, 07:26 AM

Really hope Will can score a #1 album

Posted by: Djcheekymagpie Jun 24 2019, 08:44 AM

Hope polo g get in this week top 40 this week

Zara Larson been do ok on Apple Music maybe low end top 100

I don't think she'll fall that far, I'm thinking to #10 or maybe just outside the top 10.

Me too but he’ll have stiff competition from Lewis Capaldi & Bruce Springsteen. It’s a quality album that deserves to hit the top spot.

Posted by: Jordan Lee Jun 24 2019, 10:17 AM

I think Madonna will end the week between 9-12.

I’m hoping that the album can get some sort of longevity in the lower ends of the top 40 though.

We’re getting some new videos soon so that could help her out.

Posted by: SKOB Jun 24 2019, 11:33 AM

Lots of interesting albums debuting, Madge might drop out of top ten but with ok-ish sales I believe.

Posted by: Bjork Jun 24 2019, 12:15 PM

but bare in mind it's mainly streams that cushion the fall in week 2 and Madonna is sadly doing nothing on streams

Posted by: pippa Jun 24 2019, 12:45 PM

Madonna will be just outside the Top 10 i think for this week.

Posted by: omrimayo Jun 24 2019, 02:18 PM

Shawn and Camila are number 2 on Spotify, number 3 on AM and will have tons of streams from the video, selling really well also... I can see them hitting number 1 this week.

Posted by: Bjork Jun 24 2019, 02:35 PM

kworb doesn't have them in the top 20 on youtube for neither Friday nor Saturday,
which I find hard to believe

Posted by: Bjork Jun 24 2019, 04:37 PM

Will Young is #1 in albums, Two Door Cinema Club is #3, Ronson #5

in singles #2 Senorita, #4 Stormzy - Crown

from the occ website news section

Posted by: sajjadali Jun 24 2019, 04:39 PM

Amazing news for Will Young!

I was hoping for No.1 but realistically thinking top 5-10 would be more likely after four years away.

Would like to see sales to see how close it is...he may end up No.2 in the end, that would still be brilliant. He may be front loaded by pre-orders though, I've bought the CD, cassette and vinyl not to mention streaming the songs all the time so trying to do what I can, still No.1 on iTunes and No.3 on Amazon.

Sooo well deserved though - well done WILL yahoo.gif .

I'm sure with video streams missing and the fact it's now number 2 on Spotify and AM and gaining like crazy, it will be number 1.

Posted by: Adam Jun 24 2019, 04:41 PM

I’m shook at TDCC being top three & above Ronson, I hope they can keep it up!

Posted by: Stewie Jun 24 2019, 04:53 PM

Madonna thus far No12 today

Looks like Will Young has a VERY good chance of being no1 on Friday. Lewis so far is at no4 (non-mover)

Posted by: Hadji Jun 24 2019, 05:03 PM

I hope FUA can actually re-preak. I can’t be doing with it stalling at #41

Posted by: Bjork Jun 24 2019, 05:05 PM

was expecting Mark Ronson to be fighting for #1, pretty disappointing after all the promo and singles

Posted by: sajjadali Jun 24 2019, 05:05 PM

I was worried he'd break his top 2 studio album record this time round, but seems he's in good stead to keep it even if he drops to No.2.

1 From Now On
1 Friday's Child
2 Keep On
2 Let It Go
1 Lexicon
1 85% Proof

Impressive! cheer.gif

Ed Sheeran & Justin Bieber’s I Don’t Care is set for a seventh week at Number 1, currently leading Shawn and Camila by 2,500 combined sales

^per the occ news page

Posted by: sajjadali Jun 24 2019, 05:11 PM

Will Young sales anyone:?

Posted by: Mart!n Jun 24 2019, 05:14 PM

Until a chart mod is available


With 11,412 sales so far, the track is one place behind the rapper’s former No.1 Vossi Bop, which places at No.3 with 13,193 sales. Ed Sheeran & Justin Bieber are at No.1 with I Don’t Care (21,112 sales), while Shawn Mendes & Camila Cabello are at No.2 with Señorita. Sheeran’s Chance The Rapper/PNB Rock collaboration Cross Me (11,370 sales) completes the Top 5.

Will Young leads the way as a host of new releases enter the albums chart. The singer is in top spot with Lexicon (10,417 sales), ahead of Bruce Springsteen’s Western Stars (7,298 sales). Two Door Cinema Club’s False Alarm (7,234 sales) is at No.3, two spots ahead of Mark Ronson’s new release Late Night Feelings (6,003 sales). Lewis Capaldi’s Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent (6,737 sales) is at No.4.

'Cross Me' coming to climb into the top 5, good to see. I really wish that was the song that had the success of 'I Don't Care' but at least it's showing pretty solid longevity so far.

Awww hope Will can hold on to the number 1

Posted by: SKOB Jun 24 2019, 05:40 PM

Lewis is probably #1 on albums as Will is likely to be very frontloaded.

Madge at #12 is not too bad, might be somewhere there on Friday overtaking Hollywood Vampires (and The Raconteurs perhaps) but losing to some streaming heavy albums.

Posted by: sajjadali Jun 24 2019, 05:43 PM

Amazing lead for Will, 3k! Really pleased for him. So deserved smile.gif

Will Young was so smart to push back his album a week!!

No way will she hold at #12, she will be lucky to stay top 20.

Posted by: SKOB Jun 24 2019, 06:24 PM

Last week on Monday Lewis was at 10,480 and ended up selling 24,055.
Now he's at 6,737 and if continues the same rate will end up selling 15,500.

So it'll be very close. Does Will have any promo lined up?

Great to see Will Young top of the album chart. Thought he’d be there with higher sales but still pleasing to see

Posted by: ThePensmith Jun 24 2019, 06:35 PM

I notice the soundtrack for 'Yesterday', Richard Curtis and Danny Boyle's new film using the music of The Beatles is new at #47 on the album midweeks. It's out in cinemas this weekend (and I can't wait - going to see it on Sunday) so we can expect a big leap for it next week.

Posted by: sajjadali Jun 24 2019, 06:38 PM

😍I am tearing up....17 years from Pop Idol, Will Young is heading for his fifth No.1 album with 'Lexicon' so much for all those naysayers who said he wouldn't last 6 months 😋

Posted by: Spiceboy Jun 24 2019, 06:40 PM

Lovely to see Will at #1 but with only 3k lead I can't see him holding the top position, certainly hope so though! I'll be buying my physical copy this week so that's one for him, he really needs more promo lined up, a slot on Graham Norton this weekend just gone would have been good!

Posted by: Jordan Lee Jun 24 2019, 06:42 PM

Madonna would’ve easily been #1 this week if this was Madame Xs debut cry.gif

Good to see Will look likely for #1 it’s a good move for him. He pushed this back a week didn’t he? Completely worked in his favour though.

I think P!nk could go top ten again she’s just outside with Hurts 2B Human and she’s currently on tour.

Posted by: SevenSeize Jun 24 2019, 06:45 PM

pretty good for TDCC, heading to sell more than their last album did first week

Black Midi in the top 40 ohmy.gif

Especially as 6 months ago, they hadn't officially released anything!

Posted by: sajjadali Jun 24 2019, 06:57 PM

Anyone able to answer me...

I bought a bundle off his official site
CD CASSETTE and VINYL
Does that count as 1 sale or 3? huh.gif

Graham Norton would've been great. He could've sang an album track...

I'd say a 3k lead is pretty good right? Even a No.2 would be decent at this stage!

Keep streaming and buying people! cheer.gif

Just to calculate a bit further... If Will sells at same pace than Madonna, he'll end up selling 13,740 and most likely lose to Lewis.

Posted by: Bré Jun 24 2019, 07:28 PM

I'm not sure Will is necessarily safe for top 2 yet - Bruce Springsteen seems to be holding up relatively well and his sales aren't going to be as frontloaded in the week as Will's are since it's not his first week. Lewis very likely to end up overtaking both.

Posted by: vibe Jun 24 2019, 07:36 PM

He will still do better than he would have last week.

Thanks for the Mabel update , mad love isn’t going to make the top 10 !

Yesterday's update had missing sales from the following: APPLE STRM, HMV, SPOTIFY STRM, YOUTUBE for Sun, AMAZON STRM for Sat, Sun.

Not sure of interest, but the biggest daily albums (Sunday) was the following;

1) DIVINELY UNINSPIRED TO A HELLISH EXTENT
2 )WESTERN STARS
3) LATE NIGHT FEELINGS
4) WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP WHERE DO WE GO
5) LEXICON

22) MADAME X

Posted by: ___∆___ Jun 25 2019, 11:53 AM

Just realised the Prince album is ‘only’ #15 - thought he would have easily been Top 10 due to collectors buying the various formats and the fact it seems to have had some decent social media coverage in the run up to release.

I think Will did well enough to sell another 2k yesterday, better than Madonna. He's most certainly gonna be top 2-3 at the very least so that'll be a success for him, I'd LOVE for him to get No.1 it would be SO ridiculously deserved. He also needs it more than Lewis and Bruce. I'm stunned Lewis is selling what he is selling in week 4.

In the end it seems Will could lose out by 1-2k sales, however he does signings this week and Loose Women so I am still hopeful.

Keep positive! It's still within reach, however I am stunned what Lewis sold yesterday.

Gift more copies If you can to friends and family, and keep it streaming all platforms like I'm doing!

He still has Loose Women and two signings and if that's not enough I am moving him to No.1 in every supermarket I am visiting.
cheer.gif There was about 4 copies on Saturday, only 1 left when I checked yesterday - so he is selling. A price reduction on Amazon wouldn't be a bad thing.

Posted by: pippa Jun 25 2019, 04:07 PM

Lewis Capaldi and the Brice Springsteen album have their Number 1 status already so the Number 1 is far more important to Will Young.

Posted by: Spiceboy Jun 25 2019, 06:52 PM

Buzz Jack doesn’t like Ed Sheeran so they were never going to like the song...

Looks like Will Young will just miss out on #1 at this rate, hope his signings help push him forwards a bit!

Tbf IDC has been a lazy SOY clone but i liked that so like this too, however Cross me has been something new and refreshing from him shame its barely gonna repeak after the video was released this week i expected a little bit bigger boost, but he will likely just move on to promoting the khalid song thats released on friday

He's top 3 almost for certain.

Obviously his career is not at it's peak but whose is this many years on? He's still doing quite good for me, I'd love for this album to go Gold at the least...and I hope he spends the rest of the year promoting it and doing more singles (Ground Running is brilliant).

The way I put it - 17 years on from Pop Idol, Will Young is currently in line for his fifth number 1 album, real talent wins. Remember those media critics and radio DJs who said he wouldn't last 6 months... w00t.gif

I have nothing against him and fair play if he does make no1 but think Lewis especially is the biggest album of the moment!

Yep i think he's stopped a few...Jonas Brothers, Skepta and Billie Eilish.

I am hopeful signings and Loose Women could possibly give him the edge.

Will is outselling him on iTunes, but it's the other way round on Amazon. If Will reduces on Amazon to £7.99 i reckon that could help.

I'm sure Will himself isn't too fussed, he's had a very long career and even a No.2 would be decent and keep his Top 2 studio album record up too. But i'd love to able to say that 'Lexicon' went to No.1, it is a brilliant album, very deserving and it may also be the encouragement Will needs to keep making music.

Although I'm not expecting him to.

Posted by: Spiceboy Jun 26 2019, 08:48 AM

This is the most tense I have been for album charts since Emma released My Happy Place! Really hope the signings give Will a boost so he sells a few thousand more it could be close.

Posted by: ___∆___ Jun 26 2019, 10:18 AM

Will has Brighton HMV signing this evening and Reading HMV tomorrow evening (The signings are at 5.45 so should mean more people are able to attend). No idea what a signing would generate sales wise?! 300 copies? He’s also running a competition if you download the £5 MP3 from his website you get entered in to win a meet & greet, tour tickets, Hotel etc.,

Dammit. I personally think this may sadly be due to lack of wristbands taken...

Scheduling conflicts, for 3 out of 4 dates are not possible - his schedule would have been checked at the time of confirmation.

No.1 seems less than a sure thing now. .. rolleyes.gif

Sadly without the signings I think it looks more difficult mad.gif

Just 800 copies sold for Will yesterday, Lewis Capaldi sold 1.6k. So he outsold him 2:1.

Will still in lead, but not for too long. He could miss out on the No.1 but hundreds or 1k-2k copies, sadly.

Looks like he will exceed our expectations! I think he'll end up doing 15k+ which is not bad at all after four years away. I'd say if he's not Number 1 he looks almost certain to be No.2.


If you want WILL YOUNG to get a No.1 album with 'Lexicon' as he deserves buy and stream as many copies as you can support!

Yeah it looks like Will is heading for #2 unless something major changes between now and the end of the chart week. That's still a really good result for a talent show act from nearly 2 decades ago.

A bit surprised that Shawn isn't closing the gap to Ed but I think he'll likely still climb to #1, possibly next week. Hoping that 'Crown' can hang onto the top 5 this week. Also yass at AJ Tracey now being top 20 *.*

Hoping Will’s chat and performance on Loose Women will add a few more sales. Fantastic stripped back performance of My Love.

He’s now on Preston Live tonight which looks to have been arranged while at the ITV studios today and he’s co presenting the Breakfast Show on Magic fm tomorrow & Friday.

Would be delighted if he could hold onto the top spot, making it 5 number 1 albums but he looks good for #2 and will mean all his studio albums have debuted in the top 2. Quite an achievement, considering his route into the business, 17 years into his career with lengthy gaps between albums.

Completely agree. If he reduces the album to £7.99 on Amazon I think it'll help loads, even putting £0.59 for My Love on iTunes will help get more exposure.

Loose Women helped - now No.2 on Amazon CDs sales ranks (been No.3 all week), No.1 on MP3 Downloads on Amazon. Still maintaining a iTunes No.1 album and My Love has shot up nearly twenty places on yesterday to 36 thanks to the performance earlier.

Posted by: sajjadali Jun 26 2019, 07:08 PM

Is this how you workout the album DNS? So let's say Will Young is easy as his album only came out this week so all streams are counting for this week apart from the two singles which would be neutralised to the average of the other 10. It's handy as they say the most popular 12 songs off the album count, well that's perfect as 'Lexicon' only has 12 songs.

So...JUST ON SPOTIFY
All The Songs 1,050,300 NEUTRALISED to 22,401
My Love 183,812 NEUTRALISED to 22,401
Scars 25,213
Get Me Dancing 22,953
Ground Running 49,064
Dreaming Big 21,160
I Bet You Call 19,214
Forever 21,800
Freedom 17,137
Faithless Love 16,158
Say Anything 15,559
The Way We Were 15,753

Total no. of streams - 224,011
Average no. of streams of the 12 most popular songs excluding the most popular two (the singles): 22,401

So,
The new total no. of streams would be (add them all up)
268,813

so as 1000 streams = 1 sale
that would mean 268 streaming points?

I've wanted to try calculating this for ages but I never found an album I cared to bother for, until now...

but you're using worldwide data, not uk data, even if his fanbase is mainly UK, it's not 100%, I've streamed the album myself and Im not in the Uk, so you shouldn't count me ohmy.gif

but yes the calculation is correct, I've done it myself a few times for other artists that have all songs in the Spotify top 200,
then to get the final figure I assume that Spotify is half the market so I multiply x 2, and it usually works


Posted by: sajjadali Jun 26 2019, 09:26 PM

Whoah I just started having to figure out the whole Lewis Capaldi streaming on Spotify...on UK Top 200 ONLY. So his most popular songs (the singles) I won't count as they get neutralised but the other album tracks which are IN the UK Top 200 are Bruises 159,560 and Grace 146,190

So, As an average lets assume the rest are just under these, 120,000-140,000 on average per day.
So 130,000 per song x 10 songs = 1.3 million + 260,000 for the two singles (neutralised) and you have almost 1.5 million streams per day! Even if that figure is wrong he's getting about 1 million streams a day which is believe giving him at least 1000 streaming points PER day. This is just his UK data! Globally, it'd be much more! So he gets in addition some CD sales too...say 400-800 and hence you have a situation where he beats the new release steadily through the week.

I don't think Will can even begin to compete on streaming with those figures...So he's in line to keep selling about 1.2k-1.6k a day for the remaining days and Will's best selling days he'd need to at least match that or sell just under to compete...The lead Will has is 1.6k on him at the moment. So there are TWO more days left (Wednesday and Thursday) if Will needs to sell at least 1,000 copies per day to properly stand a chance at getting that No.1, and even then it'll be a close one. I think Will will sell about 15,000. Lewis might add up to 17,000, sadly. But he's done some promoting today. Shame about those cancelled signings but if only 20 people are attending then I can see why they were cancelled...He's doing well No.2 on Amazon now (up from 3), My Love upto No.36 on iTunes, album still No.1 on iTunes, No.1/2 on Digital albums on Amazon.

Keep buying and streaming LEXICON and get WY this no.1! happy.gif

At the end of the day, a chart position is just a number hidden away on their stats page somewhere.

As long as it's a good album, and sells well enough, that's all that really matters.

Thing is I don't think it will sell massively, as albums in general don't sell huge amounts nowadays. I think if it goes silver like his last album then he will have done well and if it goes Gold then that is amazing. It's likely to fall down the charts after this week, so at least a #1 is a huge celebration regardless of what it continues to sell. I will be buying my copy tomorrow so that's 1 more towards the total sales laugh.gif

Not sure where you checked but Lewis has almost the entire album in the top 200, but yes, eventually you get to around 1K a day from Spotify streams... and we actually know the real data from the occ, which is around 14K, so 2K per day, meaning 1K from Spotify and 1K from other platforms (Apple etc)

How does Will's sales split out to CD, tape, vinyl and streaming?

I wanted to see at what level the Will Young streaming on Spotify is, especially in comparison to Lewis Capaldi's album tracks all doing about 100k each day in the UK. So I recorded the totals for all his album songs including the singles yesterday and waited for them to update today and have calculated the difference...It'd be interesting also to see which tracks are gathering the most fan replaying...

All The Songs was 1,050,300 now 1,062,907 (Daily increase: 12,607)
My Love was 183,812 now 192,618 (Daily increase: 8,806)
Scars was 25,213 now 29,957 (Daily increase: 4,744)
Get Me Dancing was 22,953 now 27,039 (Daily increase: 4,086)
Ground Running was 49,064 now 58,174 (Daily increase: 9,110)
Dreaming Big was 21,160 now 25,066 (Daily increase: 3,906)
I Bet You Call was 19,214 now 22,694 (Daily increase: 3,480)
Forever was 21,800 now 25,716 (Daily increase: 3,916)
Freedom was 17,137 now 20,248 (Daily increase: 3,111)
Faithless Love was 16,158 now 19,086 (Daily increase: 2,928)
Say Anything was 15,559 now 18,461 (Daily increase: 2,902)
The Way We Were was 15,753 now 18,682 (Daily increase: 2,929)

The most album love seems to be for the first half then second...obviously 'Ground Running' is attracting by far the most streams but it is also on the New Music Friday playlist.

On analysis, the streaming isn't as strong as I'd hoped. The streaming just yesterday for the album would have given on estimation just 33 additional sales! 3k on average...so practically nothing!

The positive is he remains No.2 on Amazon CDs, No.1 on Amazon MP3 album purchases.
iTunes still No.1 on Albums! the £4.99 promotion was genius. yahoo.gif
The signings and a £7.99 CD promotion for the album could have helped even more!

I'm trying to do my bit for him, it'd be a great achievement for 'Lexicon' but if he charts at No.2 instead it wouldn't be a total disaster, he's done quite well. 85% Proof sold 20k week 1 to chart at No.1 and there were times I'd say the Number 1 status was all it had going for it! He should do I estimate 16k which isn't bad at all! cheer.gif I know realistically Capaldi will take it as per the last few weeks but I still dare to dream yahoo.gif

I wanted to try doing a streaming party for him at 10pm however I was afraid most his fans would be asleep and in bed by then... tongue.gif so instead I'm streaming on Amazon, Youtube and Spotify!

Anyone not bought a copy please do could make the difference!

I thought streaming on Thursdays didn’t really count towards the chart anyway so there’s no point now?!

Thursday’s streams are based on an average over the week so ‘actual’ plays are not counted.

the occ doesn't use the real Spotify data x Thursday cos they report it too late, so they use an estimate

^those daily increases for Will's track are tiny, and they're worldwide not UK only

Yes! Clearly streaming is hurting his chances of a No.1!
I'd say 80% of those could safely assumed to be UK...he isn't a worldwide artist, i'm sure there's some streams that are but not a significant portion.
