96. Pixie Lott - Caravan Of Love
139. Pixie Lott - Caravan Of Love

I really hope this manages to go top #40. I'm expecting the music video to debut within the next week. It's absolutely incredible. I hope she has good enough promotion! A performance on Strictly could really help her at least get a top #20 with Platinum Pixie.

Posted by: Neil. S Nov 2 2014, 12:14 AM

Jokes aside, She'll go top 20 with Platinum Pixie as Pre-orders have been surprisingly stable and should continue to climb. Fingers crossed Caravan of Love does something, it's quite christmassy so that's an advantage for sure

Posted by: { bré } Nov 2 2014, 12:16 AM

I haven't heard Pixie's version but 'Caravan Of Love' is a great song so quite pleasing to see it in the chart in any form. Doing better than I'd have expected TBH.

Posted by: girl_from_oz Nov 2 2014, 12:18 AM

Graham Norton's vocal guest on Friday is Annie Lennox I think (Shirley Bassey also on the show but prob just talking to her), Jools Holland has Bryan Ferry and Paul Rodgers on, can't remember who else

Posted by: Ryan. Nov 2 2014, 12:19 AM

If the Matalan advert gets regular plays on TV then there's no reason why 'Caravan Of Love' won't keep climbing and be at least a top 40 hit which will be great for Pixie as well as the Charity the advert and the song are raising money for!

Posted by: ▬Mart!n's Ratτ Nov 2 2014, 12:20 AM

Musical guests added, hopefully London Grammar's album will probably do a U-turn after their earlier performance on Jonathan Ross.

Pixie Lott's Caravan Of Love is available on Amazon

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Caravan-Of-Love/dp/B00OY1PDXK/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1414887768&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=Pixie+Lott+Caravan+of+love

Posted by: -Jay- Nov 2 2014, 12:23 AM

Really liked Pixie's cover, I've just bought it! (Not even bought Cheryl yet )

Posted by: Dillan Nov 2 2014, 12:24 AM

3. Cheryl - I Don't Care

Posted by: Neil. S Nov 2 2014, 12:24 AM

Just bought Pixie's song too It's surprisingly brilliant

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 12:27 AM

Cheryl update:

3. I Don't Care
94. Crazy Stupid Love (feat. Tinie Tempah)
195. Only Human
276. I Don't Care
965. Fight for This Love

Posted by: ScoobyDoo Nov 2 2014, 12:30 AM

If only 'Caravan Of Love' was on the John Lewis advert!

I wonder if Radio 2 / Heart will playlist it?

Posted by: Neil. S Nov 2 2014, 12:34 AM

It's something Heart would eat up. Not sure about BBC for now though

Now #90

Posted by: Joe. Nov 2 2014, 12:38 AM

Do we think Cheryl will manage 100K+ sales in an hour again?

Posted by: Neil. S Nov 2 2014, 12:39 AM

Yes

Posted by: ► ▲ N Nov 2 2014, 12:47 AM

who cares about Cheryl and Pixie when we have Henry Krinkle releasing this week

Stay for top 40!

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 12:50 AM

Anyone with taste?

Posted by: { bré } Nov 2 2014, 01:08 AM

Yes, anyone with bad taste.

Cheryl's song is absolutely AWFUL, really hope it misses #1 somehow.

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 01:10 AM

That would be you, going by your second statement there

Posted by: { bré } Nov 2 2014, 01:12 AM

Shoo with your incessant trolling.

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 01:13 AM

Multichart #4 (so far) doesn't lie Where is Stay? Nowhere

Posted by: SavenSeize's Cat Nov 2 2014, 01:16 AM

Henry Krinkle isn't a big-name female popstar though, bit of an unfair disadvantage x

Posted by: Juan Carlos Nov 2 2014, 01:17 AM

Go Cheryl Cole!

Anyway, her sales aren't going to be split because it was out an hour earlier, right?

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 01:21 AM

They aren't, don't worry

Posted by: Chez Wombat Nov 2 2014, 01:24 AM

Cheryl's song is really not very good, the chorus and particular the swearing in it makes me cringe. Yawn @ it inevitably going to number 1

Yay for Henry Krinkle though Can we please get Tom Day - Going Home to smash next out of Usfland entries?

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 Nov 2 2014, 01:25 AM

Go Cheryl & Pixie this week

Posted by: James1987 Nov 2 2014, 01:26 AM

Fantastic to see Henry Krinkle top 20 already!

I've not bought it yet but I'm hoping for a top 40 debut

Posted by: Envoirment Nov 2 2014, 01:28 AM

Agreed, but I also kind of want it to get to #1 so the record for British female solo artist with most #1s will finally be broken not tied (I think Cheryl, Rita Ora and Geri Haliwell are tied on 4 atm, although I'm sure Jessie J/maybe Pixie Lott/Leona will also tie that in the future and might go on to get 5+ too).

Posted by: Juan Carlos Nov 2 2014, 01:28 AM

Yay! Thank you.

Posted by: Liаm Nov 2 2014, 01:35 AM

I Don't Care is far from Cheryl's best (I'm already tiring of it to be honest), but it's harmless and catchy enough. This opinion will surprise probably nobody, but Stay is AWFUL. Just another hideously boring dance song with a sample that falls well short of the original....

Posted by: Sheikh Abdul Nov 2 2014, 01:36 AM

Another Cheryl Cole release week means more examples of her fans making ludacris comments:

https://twitter.com/CherylOfficial

Posted by: ScoobyDoo Nov 2 2014, 01:38 AM

19. One Republic - I Lived
20. Nicki Minaj Feat Drake, Lil Wayne & Chris Brown - Only
21. Henry Krinkle - Stay
24. The Script - No Good In Goodbyes
25. The Script - Superheroes
28. Sia - Chandelier & #65
35. Maroon 5 - Animals
51. Only The Young - Monster Mash [I've actually purchased this. I love it]
55. Bastille - The Driver [Flopping tbh]
88. Pixie Lott - Caravan Of Love *.* & #137. Smashing following 'Break Up Song' and 'Lay Me Down' flopping.
89. Kristin Chenoweth - Defying Gravity [Frankie Impact]

Ouch at the highest x-factor performance only being at #41 on iTunes. Flops.

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 01:39 AM

Cheryl Cole doesn't exist anymore

Posted by: Sheikh Abdul Nov 2 2014, 01:42 AM

What do you mean she doesn't exist anymore? did she died?

Posted by: OutstandingMixer Nov 2 2014, 01:42 AM

'I Don't Care' isn't that great but I would like to see Cheryl break the record tbh. And that AWFUL Ed Sheeran song doesn't deserve two weeks at #1.

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 01:42 AM

Cheryl Fernandez-Versini or just Cheryl for music purposes. "Cole" won't be coming back.

(can you tell I'm the Cheryl loon? )

Posted by: Sheikh Abdul Nov 2 2014, 01:46 AM

Oh I see what you mean. As far as I'm and many other people are concerned she will always be known as Cheryl Cole.

Posted by: •CDC• Nov 2 2014, 02:08 AM

85. Kristin Chenoweth & Indina Menzel - Defying Gravity

as a result of Frankie's AMAZING performance on Strictly tonight!

Posted by: Veis Nov 2 2014, 07:29 AM

I can say that she will be at #1 tomorrow after X Factor Performance and I happy for this

Posted by: Neil. S Nov 2 2014, 08:51 AM

Caravan Of Love - #90

Posted by: ▬Mart!n's Ratτ Nov 2 2014, 09:32 AM

I guess she be on top later on tonight, after her dodgy performance

Posted by: Doctor Blind Nov 2 2014, 09:59 AM

Doctor Blind #1 hit "Get Up" by Young Fathers is at #183 after Mercury related promo. YAY!

Posted by: Carlos V Nov 2 2014, 10:08 AM

IMO it's a mistake from Polydor to make the I Don't Care Clean version the main one, the Explicit version is at #30

Posted by: gavindeejay Nov 2 2014, 10:19 AM

It's at #26 now, whilst the clean version is at #2.

Posted by: ► ▲ N Nov 2 2014, 10:50 AM

well as Cheryl is nearly at #1 and has 2 versions it's time for a combined/weighted Kworb update

So yeah, looks like Cheryl will be getting her fifth solo #1 as she's not too far behind Ed and it's still climbing (and hasn't got the XF boost yet). When will your ex-girlband faves?

How is Mary so high

Posted by: jay727 Nov 2 2014, 10:57 AM

Cheryl's song is awful, how is this going to number 1? Hope it's heavily front loaded

Earlier this year I was having to promote Young Fathers by sticking up posters around my city for them, and now they're top 200 on iTunes! So proud.

Posted by: April Nov 2 2014, 11:15 AM

18. Nicki Minaj - Only (feat. Drake, Lil Wayne & Chris Brown)

Doing so much better than I thought! I wonder if it might manage top 15.

Posted by: BlazingLovatic Nov 2 2014, 11:24 AM

Cheryl's #1 combined!!

EDIT: nvm Ed has two versions

Posted by: ► ▲ N Nov 2 2014, 11:36 AM

instant grat

Posted by: Joe. Nov 2 2014, 11:41 AM

I have no doubt she'll be number 1 on iTunes soon, but has Cheryl ever taken this long to hit #1 with a pre-album single before?

Posted by: gavindeejay Nov 2 2014, 11:50 AM

11. Foo Fighters - Congregation

Caravan of Love 80.

Posted by: Veis Nov 2 2014, 11:56 AM

No but you know, previous pre-album singles has performances and promo before release date, this time IDC have only music video and nothing more.
So still it's great.

Posted by: Simon. Nov 2 2014, 12:00 PM

Oh so it's not a pre-order.

Posted by: dennispennis123 Nov 2 2014, 12:07 PM

Cheryl will fall away, shes gonna be very high on pre-orders.

Had a bet with my step-sister that she won't get number one and the loser gets pied so she will enjoy he pie!

Posted by: Neil. S Nov 2 2014, 12:09 PM

I think she'll get there unfortunately for you

Posted by: dennispennis123 Nov 2 2014, 12:14 PM

Im pretty confident Neil. She looks in a goof position but i'm sure she will fall away as the song isn't strong.

Posted by: steve201 Nov 2 2014, 12:21 PM

Is it the first instant grat?

Posted by: steve201 Nov 2 2014, 12:23 PM

It'll keep getting boosts as it's shown especially at weekends!

Posted by: gavindeejay Nov 2 2014, 12:24 PM

Don't forget she's got two versions Top 20 plus an EP Whick is also Top 20.

Posted by: jsilv Nov 2 2014, 12:26 PM

No, I don't think so but it doesn't matter now because every instant grat is now eligible but only the downloads for that one song and not album pre-order sales on top of it.

Posted by: steve201 Nov 2 2014, 12:26 PM

^^Yeh Cheryl will have a 30k lead in the mids which will be 15k by the weekend imo

Posted by: steve201 Nov 2 2014, 12:27 PM

Yeh that's true, I'd imagine a high download for Mary would be seperate people downloading the song rather than pre ordering an album by her!

Posted by: dennispennis123 Nov 2 2014, 12:29 PM

I'm very confident guys depsite what you say. I will post a pic of my step-sister getting pied on here when I win the bet and post it to Cheryl as well!

Posted by: Jimmie Nov 2 2014, 12:33 PM

As Cheryl is still climbing and there are two versions, I am pretty confident that she can hit number 1 before 10million+ see the performance on X Factor tonight! Just time will tell how big the boost will be and how long that lasts for. Great start for the song though

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 12:34 PM

Cheryl release week tradition - someone being absolutely confident she won't be #1 and ultimately being wrong. She has two versions top 20 plus an X Factor performance still to come. She'll sail there, especially as this had way less competition than CSL had.

Posted by: BlazingLovatic Nov 2 2014, 12:35 PM

I Don't Care:
#2 - Clean single
#14 - Explicit single
#18 - Explicit Remixes EP
#215 - Clean Remixes EP
#441 - Remix

Posted by: omrimayo Nov 2 2014, 12:37 PM

2+14 for IDC... So a big lead already. Surprising.

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 12:37 PM

Coming for two versions top 10? Wonder if the explicit will eventually overtake the clean?

Posted by: Jimmie Nov 2 2014, 12:38 PM

With those versions combined, that should put Cheryl in the lead then! Wonder if the explicit version can also make the top 10?

Posted by: omrimayo Nov 2 2014, 12:38 PM

Cheryl - I Don't Care 0.9855
+

0.2430

So at least 20% lead...

Posted by: SavenSeize's Cat Nov 2 2014, 12:39 PM

oh Dennis. by now you (and everyone) should know that if when it comes to a brand new (held-back) single release from Cheryl Cole, it *WILL* go to #1 regardless of how 'good' the song is, or whatever logic/pre-orders etc. tell you. (but i'm sure once that pie hits your face, this realisation will also hit you like a ton of bricks x)

Posted by: steve201 Nov 2 2014, 12:40 PM

This!

Posted by: Veis Nov 2 2014, 12:43 PM

Coming for that two version in TOP 10

Posted by: dennispennis123 Nov 2 2014, 12:44 PM

I'm gonna be very happy next Sunday. Cheryl will get a number two, which for her will be a flop and I will be dry and no pies for me!

Posted by: Jimmie Nov 2 2014, 12:44 PM

Considering this, it is only fair you also post a picture of you getting pied when you inevitably lose!

Posted by: dennispennis123 Nov 2 2014, 12:46 PM

I'm very happy to post the pic here, which will be my step-sister covered in pies.

I will also post it to Cheryl on twitter so she can see how her failure to get to number one has caused one of her fans such an embarrasment!

Posted by: gavindeejay Nov 2 2014, 12:49 PM

now you've agreed to doing that, it also means if you lose you have to post the pic of you getting pied here and send it to Cheryl on twitter so she can see how her getting to number one has caused you such an embarrasment!

Time to update my Reasons why Cheryl should be #1 this week list

1. Thinking Out Loud is awful and doesn't deserve #1
2. Cheryl will have the record for most UK #1s as a solo British female
3. It'll make her have more #1s as a solo artist than with Girls Aloud
4. I Don't Care is literally 1000x better than Thinking Out Loud
5. We'll get to see dennispennis123 with pie in his face

Posted by: #IMPACT!! Nov 2 2014, 01:15 PM

Ha what a flop!

Knew she wouldn't challenge for no.1 with that auto-tuned DIRGE!


Anyway, can't believe that novelty song about being chubby got to no.1 ... and for 4 weeks :/ Where is the taste gone? :/

How did the Halloween songs fare this year, did they breach the top 100 or was it more a case of people using Spotify and playlists and youtube like at my party on Fri?

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 01:16 PM

I adore Cheryl and I Don't Care but seeing her have more #1s than Girls Aloud had will be weird They should have had 23 #1s x

Posted by: #IMPACT!! Nov 2 2014, 01:19 PM

All a number one means is that a song sold more than any other in a given week - what's more impressive is overall sales totals and the song's lasting 'IMPAKT!!

For example Thriller FALOPPED at like no.11 or something and yet is played EEEVERY Halloween at nearly every party around the world!

Posted by: Jester Nov 2 2014, 01:21 PM

She is number 1 on iTunes so how is that not challenging?

Posted by: ► ▲ N Nov 2 2014, 01:22 PM

Actually Thriller went to #10 and did very well considering it was a post-album single from a massive selling #1 album.

Posted by: #IMPACT!! Nov 2 2014, 01:23 PM

Oh.

I thought she was 2 and not catching up even against a song that's been out ages with front-loaded sales?

Posted by: dennispennis123 Nov 2 2014, 01:25 PM

So front-loaded its untrue, I wish i could have the pie bet with Cheryl herself!

She will drop like a stone come Wednesday!

Posted by: Neil. S Nov 2 2014, 01:26 PM

But how do you know it's only front-loaded and it will drop? It's still increasing its lead

Posted by: Joe. Nov 2 2014, 01:26 PM

Just because it's front-loaded it doesn't mean it can't be number 1. Crazy Stupid Love was hugely front loaded and fell from itunes #1 mid week, but still went to number 1 with a great lead.

Posted by: Jester Nov 2 2014, 01:27 PM

Well she is at number 1 and about 14 as well, so the challenge is very much there.

Posted by: #IMPACT!! Nov 2 2014, 01:29 PM

Tbf if I'd known aboot this pie bet I would've made it with one of the Ol' Boyz of the site that she wouldn't get there.

Posted by: dennispennis123 Nov 2 2014, 01:31 PM

Of course it will increase, the pre-orders and Cheryl fans will be downloading loads today and then X Factor will boost until Tuesday then she will fall flat!

Posted by: #IMPACT!! Nov 2 2014, 01:34 PM

I can't see any casual fans buying this.

It is quite awful.

Posted by: ▬Mart!n▬ Nov 2 2014, 01:34 PM

Try not to make this thread topic all about Cheryl there are other new releases this week.

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 Nov 2 2014, 01:35 PM

The problem is Cheryl's new entry is the best by miles (and is a great song). Mary's song is also pretty good

Anyway hoping and waiting for You Ruin Me to smash next week

Posted by: Jester Nov 2 2014, 01:36 PM

I think you have made this opinion clear, so no need to repeat it again.

Posted by: Jimmie Nov 2 2014, 01:38 PM

Umm, Problem is, Cheryl is the only one worth talking about

In all seriousness, this week is quite important. Cheryl could break the record for most UK #1s as a solo British female!!

Posted by: dennispennis123 Nov 2 2014, 01:40 PM

What is the record for the act with most 1 week number ones from pre-album singles?

Posted by: ▬Mart!n▬ Nov 2 2014, 01:40 PM

I make it her first as Cheryl in the other instances credited as Cheryl Cole

Posted by: April Nov 2 2014, 01:42 PM

*Second

Cheryl Cole - Fight For This Love, Promise This, Crazy Stupid Love
Cheryl - Call My Name, (I Don't Care)

What is your favourite pie? mine is probably shepherds

The pie needs to be one that you'll enjoy eating a lot!

Posted by: #IMPACT!! Nov 2 2014, 01:48 PM

Oh so she finally changed her name to just Cheryl?

A bit strange to do that now!

Posted by: troylovesmusic Nov 2 2014, 01:56 PM

I don't get why the explicit version for I don't care is not the main version it should be imo.

Posted by: jay727 Nov 2 2014, 01:57 PM

Fair play to Cheryl though - she really has stretched an elastic band to the moon with what she has and continues to achieve.

Posted by: ► ▲ N Nov 2 2014, 01:58 PM

my best guess would be Westlife

Posted by: #IMPACT!! Nov 2 2014, 01:59 PM

She has put out some bops though!

Posted by: Hayzayy Nov 2 2014, 02:02 PM

Are you going to spend the whole week dissing Cheryl?


Anyway, it's quite amazing to come on here to see this, I really wasn't expecting her to get to number 1 before her X Factor performance, and with a second version that high, I am a happy fan now
I'm still not sure she will be #1 officially, but if not #2 is definitely happening and that's still great.

Posted by: April Nov 2 2014, 02:11 PM

Cheryl's second version is now at #11! Amazing achievement if she manages to get both versions in the top 10 (which looks almost certain now).

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 02:12 PM

And Crazy Stupid Love's credit is amended to just Cheryl on the album release

Posted by: gavindeejay Nov 2 2014, 02:14 PM

Does it really matter? People will buy whichever version they prefer as both are available. The fans will just buy both.

Posted by: { bré } Nov 2 2014, 02:18 PM

Well this thread has been unreadable so far.

'Stay' still hasn't had any red updates on Kworb despite falling a few places since it debuted (as it's just been overtaken by Cheryl, Nicki and The Script). Ugh at The Script's performance having so much impact though, such an awful song and I usually like / don't mind them...

So Dark Horse is considered a Halloween themed song by X Factor ... really? Playing fast and loose wit the themes then eh.

Posted by: Sheikh Abdul Nov 2 2014, 02:23 PM

No doubt that Cheryl Cole will be full of herself on The X Factor tonight and next weekend. Especially when she has verbal banter with Simon Cowell.

Posted by: Envoirment Nov 2 2014, 02:23 PM

Christmas songs:

#360 - Mariah Carey "All I Want For Christmas Is You"
#977 - Leona Lewis "One More Sleep"

Leona's climbed quite a lot over the last few hours. I have a very good feeling about the success of "One More Sleep" this year.

Posted by: #IMPACT!! Nov 2 2014, 02:25 PM

Hope you're right!!

Grab that Xmas #IMPAKT!! Leona!!

Grab that Christmas Classic status!

When do radios start playing the Xmas classics?

We also need All Alone on Xmas to be impaktful this year too.

Posted by: Joe. Nov 2 2014, 02:26 PM

One More Sleep really was nailed into everyone's memory last Christmas. It was EVERYWHERE. High hopes for its silver certification this year.

Posted by: Jester Nov 2 2014, 02:26 PM

No more than they usually do

Posted by: Envoirment Nov 2 2014, 02:28 PM

It should be on ~135k-140k I think, so it'll need to sell another 60k or so which I think is doable over the next 7-8 weeks. Especially now that streaming is a part of the charts (and also counted to certifications right?).

Posted by: Joe. Nov 2 2014, 02:31 PM

I've always seen Dark Horse as a halloween song - it was out around last Halloween. It has quite a spooky beat and includes lyrics like 'dark,' 'madness', 'play with magic', 'perfect storm.' And also references the infamous Jeffery Dahrmer - one of the scariest serial killers of all time.

I think it was always intended as a spooky song - just see the Grammys performance - vimeo.com/m/85118070

I was quite disappointed when she changed its theme to Egyptian for the video.

Posted by: Hayzayy Nov 2 2014, 02:38 PM

"I don't care" could be the first Cheryl's song to have two versions in the top10! What an achievement

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 02:48 PM

Combined and Weighted Top 10 (removing Calvin):

1 1.0000 Cheryl - I Don't Care
2 0.7684 Ed Sheeran - Thinking Out Loud
3 0.6012 Meghan Trainor - All About That Bass
4 0.3759 Taylor Swift - Shake It Off
5 0.2906 Jeremih - Don't Tell 'Em (feat. YG)
6 0.2598 Jessie J, Ariana Grande & Nicki Minaj - Bang Bang
7 0.2576 One Direction - Steal My Girl
8 0.2568 Waze & Odyssey & R. Kelly - Bump & Grind 2014
9 0.2466 Parra for Cuva - Wicked Games (feat. Anna Naklab)
10 0.2026 Fuse ODG - T.I.N.A. (feat. Angel)

Amazing lead for Cheryl

Posted by: Hayzayy Nov 2 2014, 02:51 PM

Ed is going to be so big on streaming though, it will take more than that lead to beat him I guess.

when was the last time an artist had 2 versions of the same song in the top 10?

Posted by: Neil. S Nov 2 2014, 02:57 PM

Didn't Forget you and F**k you do this?

Posted by: GTH Nov 2 2014, 02:57 PM

I actually prefer the clean version of I Don't Care. The swearing in the chorus feels out of place in a Cheryl song (especially one as poppy if not bubblegum poppy as this). This coming from someone who played anaconda to death (but you expect a lot of swearing with Nicki and it fits the music).

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 02:57 PM

Cheryl might not have the best streaming but it won't count for nothing still, so that can be factored in too I guess Fairly sure she'll end up being #1, quite safely too. Remember this is pre-X Factor!

Posted by: Hayzayy Nov 2 2014, 02:59 PM

Oh yes the performance is coming

I am SO excited for tonight.

Posted by: n4yr Nov 2 2014, 03:00 PM

"Someone Like You" had 2 versions in the top 4 (maybe even top 3?) at its peak (the album version and the live BRIT Awards performance version.)

Posted by: JoesephJSG'sDog Nov 2 2014, 03:03 PM

I remember Emeli Sandé having two versions of Next To Me in the top 10 in the release week of Our Version of Events although I think the single version got deleted midweek.

Posted by: Col1967 Nov 2 2014, 03:05 PM

I'm not certain but I think both 'Get Lucky' & 'Blurred Lines' may have done it.

Posted by: Jester Nov 2 2014, 03:06 PM

Someone Like You did as well.

Gary Barlow with Sing, he had a version at #1 and #6

However on 27 September 2013, Drake had 'Hold On (We're Going Home)' at #6 and #11. Not sure whether the second version ever made the Top 10 for a short while.

http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=149043&view=findpost&p=4454533

Posted by: Eric_Blob Nov 2 2014, 04:27 PM

Songs that I think were in the top 10 twice at the same time:

Katy Perry - Teenage Dream
50 Cent - My Life
Emeli Sande - Next To Me
Adele - Someone Like You
Adele - Rolling in the Deep (I think)
PSY - Gangnam Style
Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love (not 100% sure about this one either)
I know there must me more that I've forgotten about/can't remember atm.

Also sometimes two different versions of the same song are top 10 together too:

Don't Stop Believin (Journey and Glee Cast)
Empire State Of Mind (Jay-Z and Alicia Keys)
You've Got the (Dirtee) Love (Florence + The Machine and Dizzee Rascal)
Levels/Good Feeling (Avicii and Flo Rida, not really the same song, but still notable)
When We Collide/Many Of Horror (Matt Cardle and Biffy Clyro)
Hallelujah I think had two different versions top 10 on iTunes together too?
Payphone (Maroon 5 and Precision Tunes or Big Hits 2012?)
Prayer in C?

If we're talking about #11s, I think In For the Kill by La Roux had a version in the top 10 and the Skream remix at #11 at one point.

Posted by: { bré } Nov 2 2014, 04:29 PM

'Bonkers' also had 2 versions top 10 briefly (as one version was deleted and then quickly re-added). Also 'Price Tag' if that hasn't been mentioned yet.

Posted by: Ryan. Nov 2 2014, 05:35 PM

Both versions of 'I Don't Care' are now top 10, does this mean that the Big Top 40 will play 'I Don't Care' twice?

Very impressive how well 'I Don't Care' is doing considering the lack of support. Radio didn't exactly hammer 'Crazy Stupid Love' either but this only being B-list on radio 1 is even worse. Really hope it's A-listed this week.

Good for Cheryl, wow at how big this song's turned out to be. I'd have expected it to be #3/4 without an X Factor slot beforehand but it looks like it's a safe #1 regardless.

Posted by: { bré } Nov 2 2014, 08:01 PM

Why? It's a pre-album single by Cheryl Cole, #1 on iTunes on the first day of release is pretty much a given. The pre-order didn't do a great deal worse than 'Crazy Stupid Love'.

Posted by: Hayzayy Nov 2 2014, 08:01 PM

Oh god yes, you're right, Ebola is totally fitting in this discussion, right.

I don't care if people called her Cheryl Tweedy or Cole or whatever, it's just that everybody knows how you're doing this solely on purpose as you always do regarding Cheryl. And it's just plain obvious and boring.

The impact will be less important than if he had performed "All of me" on its own though.
It will do wonders for the album.

Nice to hear a bit of 'Ordinary People' in his performance! Did make me laugh a little when he started playing 'All of Me', but he did sing it very well so I did enjoy it actually!

Can't say it was enough for me to welcome a boost though! Suppose his album does need it though.

WHY would John perform All Of Me. I can't think of any logical reason to do so, he should've performed You and I or something else. Maybe he's just trying to be #2 in the year-end chart.

Posted by: steve201 Nov 2 2014, 08:34 PM

I agree if he had performed another track of the album and it impacted on the public he could have got radio to support another single of the album and therefore more album sales!

I've just missed the hype around it that's always been there in spades for her previous four #1's. And last week the pre-order seemed to be dipping in and out of the top 100, I thought CSL had been steadily top 50/60 and up to top 30 just before it was released?

Good for her though, I'd rather she have the record than Geri Halliwell or Rita Ora.

I saw it coming, but not that high

Is LivePopBars down for anyone?

But YEAH, #1 and #5, now I want #4

Yep... for me it is

Use the back up

omg if all of me gets back in the top 10 officially

8. All of Me

Posted by: { bré } Nov 2 2014, 09:17 PM

It's nothing new but once again I am left wondering just how there were enough people who hadn't already downloaded 'All Of Me' for this performance to have so much effect.

Posted by: April Nov 2 2014, 09:17 PM

All of Me to #8! Coming for Cheryl (Tweedy-Cole-Fernandez-Versini)'s cheap ass weave.

Posted by: { bré } Nov 2 2014, 09:18 PM

Why is John Legend top 10?

TBH 'All Of Me' would be a better #1 than 'I Don't Care'.

Posted by: Ariels Nov 2 2014, 09:23 PM

My good Lord. 'All Of Me' needs to die a death.

Posted by: Envoirment Nov 2 2014, 09:29 PM

To be honest I haven't bought it yet, although I don't plan to.

It's great to see X-factor have such a huge effect for John. I hope it manages to go top 20 again. Would be hilarious if it went top 10 officially again.

Posted by: April Nov 2 2014, 09:29 PM

All of Me coming for Ed Sheeran's #1 record.

I'm all for Cheryl being #1. Having said that, I would LOL if it was because of the X Factor that she was blocked..

Posted by: Envoirment Nov 2 2014, 09:32 PM

Also, Livepopbars is back up for me (it's been going on/off for me the last couple hours).

Definitely coming for top 5 combined.

Posted by: Rob S Nov 2 2014, 09:32 PM

Well it was a lovely performance so I guess that could be a factor as to why it had a big boost tbh.

Posted by: Joe. Nov 2 2014, 09:39 PM

Also this week John Legend is releasing a deluxe version of his current album.

He is performing You And I on Xtra Factor. Could have performed it on the main results show.

Who the hell names a song Caravan Of Love? Are they travellers?

Why can't that song just do us all a favour and die

Anyway great to see Cheryl Slaying

Posted by: T Boy Nov 2 2014, 10:19 PM

Back when the chart was just physical singles, I used to hate when songs got deleted. Now I can sort of understand the sentiment behind it. This is why I just can't force myself into listening anymore.

At least it's a classic song sung by someone who can actually sing. What redeeming qualities does that effort from Cheryl have?

Posted by: CherylStyles Nov 2 2014, 10:46 PM

If Cheryl can't sing, how come she's been getting #1 singles for 12 years now?

Posted by: Simon. Nov 2 2014, 10:47 PM

Good timing?

Posted by: #IMPACT!! Nov 2 2014, 10:48 PM

Well, so did Westlife!

If a song is a bop or someone is popular, it doesn't matter really how well they sing - see Robbie Williams too for another example.

Posted by: Umi Nov 2 2014, 10:49 PM

Well you were never going to like anything sung by a woman now, were you.

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 Nov 2 2014, 10:53 PM

Some qualities Cheryl has that she can sing, dance, be part of one of the biggest ever girl groups, make great songs, fight for this love, promise this and I'll be here forever if I list all the reasons

Posted by: April Nov 2 2014, 10:54 PM

You don't have to be a good singer to have constant stream of hits. Hi Madonna.

Posted by: truly talented Nov 2 2014, 11:00 PM

She sells on hype and good looks. Just look at her poor album sales when she wasn't on X Factor.

Posted by: Simon. Nov 2 2014, 11:03 PM

Its weird imo, its like her personality sells too, I find her quite basic and just not all that shes made out to be loved 'Call My Name' though

Posted by: CherylStyles Nov 2 2014, 11:03 PM

Depends what you deem "good singer" as. Cheryl can sing well, she can hold a note, she's not exactly Whitney or Mariah though but she's never claimed to be. She's a girl group member gone solo.

Posted by: Ariels Nov 2 2014, 11:08 PM

Has John Legend come to a halt yet?

Posted by: Toby Nov 2 2014, 11:08 PM

Even Kimberly f***ing Walsh is a better sing than Cheryl.

Posted by: CherylStyles Nov 2 2014, 11:09 PM

Now THAT is one step TOO FAR!

Posted by: April Nov 2 2014, 11:10 PM

Isn't it a fact that Cheryl was the worst singer in Girls Aloud though?

Kimberley Walsh is the worst EVERYTHING in Girls Aloud x

Mess at this re-entering the top 10. Had enough people not heard of it before now?

47. John Legend - Ordinary People
54. Pixie Lott - Caravan Of Love & #125.

Posted by: truly talented Nov 2 2014, 11:13 PM

Very true. Hence the constant miming. She is the one 'singer' they struggle to make sound good even on disc.

Posted by: CherylStyles Nov 2 2014, 11:14 PM

Lol.

Posted by: April Nov 2 2014, 11:15 PM

Cheryl wishes she could give a live vocal this "good" (relatively speaking): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10QmC4lEsj8

Posted by: Toby Nov 2 2014, 11:16 PM

I love that Joseph is the only Cheryl stan STILL defending her.

Posted by: CherylStyles Nov 2 2014, 11:16 PM

The others seem to be away

April - Cheryl's given some really good live vocals recently in her Only Human sessions, I'd recommend checking them out if you haven't already.

Posted by: BlazingLovatic Nov 2 2014, 11:17 PM

Cheryl is really close to #4, but John Legend might get there before she does.

Posted by: April Nov 2 2014, 11:18 PM

I've only heard the Only Human acoustic because it's an amazing song. And it was a shaky vocal, but she did an ok job I guess.

Posted by: AdamAloud Nov 2 2014, 11:18 PM

I don't need to defend Cheryl really, that lead on iTunes should be more than enough to shut the haters up.

Posted by: Carlos V Nov 2 2014, 11:21 PM

Cheryl on tour with Girls Aloud was most consistent vocally than Sarah and Kimberley... There are 5 whole tours that confirm it.

It's true that smoking is not helping her at all and she should quit it asap because her problem is not from her vocal chords but how little air she can keep in her lungs...

Posted by: steve201 Nov 2 2014, 11:50 PM

If your comparing the classic nature if All of Me and I Don't Care we know which one will be the classic. Dare I say it Cheryl's track will be out of the top 40 when All of Me is still there IMO and I think she'll get No1 this week.

Posted by: steve201 Nov 2 2014, 11:54 PM

She has a decent lead against a 20 week old song which will most likely be No1 again by the end of this week!

Posted by: Dane Nov 2 2014, 11:57 PM

Them vocals though anyone who says she can sing is deluded, I absolutely love her but she can not sing, well...she can but barely in tune

Posted by: Liаm Nov 2 2014, 11:59 PM

Cheryl really isn't THAT bad at singing.... She just has a very average voice, I love her though. Tbh most people just jump on the bandwagon of hate. I swear if she came out on X Factor and performed a Whitney Houston track a capella and it was note perfect, most of twitter/Facebook etc. would still swear blind she can't sing

Posted by: Carlos V Nov 3 2014, 12:00 AM

5 years ago you already had this kind of insignificant 'conversation'...

Anyway, I Don't Care explicit is up to number 4

Posted by: gavindeejay Nov 3 2014, 12:04 AM

I can't believe John Legend performed 'All Of Me'. What a waste of a good opportunity to get another hit from 'Love In The Future'.

Posted by: BlazingLovatic Nov 3 2014, 12:10 AM

I'm sure that there is at least one bad vocal performance for each & every popstar. Just because they sound dire in one video, doesn't mean that they can't sing.

I could just as easily post a great vocal performance from Cheryl (i.e. her Set The Fire To The Third Bar performance)

Posted by: BlazingLovatic Nov 3 2014, 12:22 AM

Congratulations, you've found two videos where her vocals aren't up to scratch! Would you like to try & go for THREE WHOLE VIDEOS?! *gasp*

But honestly, I don't understand the purpose of your post.

Posted by: steve201 Nov 3 2014, 12:27 AM

It's only a pain if the label prevents the track being available to stream until the downloads out!

Posted by: Shelter Nov 3 2014, 12:31 AM

The performance was to sell his tour, so i think it was a good idea.

Posted by: Rabbit Froot Nov 3 2014, 12:34 AM

Need You Now with Gary Barlow.

I could name more but it's not as though I keep a log of Cheryl live performances. She does not have a strong voice, it's clearly an average voice. That doesn't take anything away from the rest of her music, her perfomance skills, the marketing etc whatever. She just has an everyday voice, like other superstars have done before her and will after.

Posted by: Aphrodite Nov 3 2014, 01:55 AM

Cheryl singing live is rare and i havnt seen a live performance from her that sells her as a good singer. Best of luck to her, i know there are many artists around who dont have the best voices but have excellent performance skills, excellent song writers, strong marketing campaigns etc. The issue i have which i have seen a few people comment on over on other sites is when you are a judge on a singing competition programme its a bit ironic you take to the stage and mime.

John Legend sang brilliantly but i loved all of me, i like it anyway but that live vocal was excellent. I do think he should have sang a new song off the album instead of ordinary people to try and get another hit but i suspect he was going for ticket and album sales. With a tour coming up and a new version of his album coming out he may have made the right decision. Great to see all of me back in the top 6 on itunes id love a top 10 return this week.

I wonder if 'Outside' could go top 10 on iTunes? It would be incredible if it managed it.

Posted by: Rush Nov 3 2014, 06:21 AM

Right Here, Boom Clap, Walking With Elephants and Bump & Grind 2014 were available for streaming beforehand and were streamed enough to make the top 200 that way, they still ended up lower than on sales only.

Posted by: Hayzayy Nov 3 2014, 09:03 AM

LOLz at all the pro- and anti- Cheryl posting again and again and again the same old videos everytime she releases a new single.
After 6 years of solo Cheryl, surely everyone has had time to make one's own opinion about her. There's no point in trying to convince onthers she is either AWFUL or AMAZING, as I don't think anyone will change one's mind anyway.
I love her so much, but if someone else doesn't, that's pretty fine as long as it's respectful.

Anyway, she's #1 and #4 this morning and still in green.
"Thinking out loud" is gaining ground but the explicit version is gaining as well. I wonder at what point the explicit version will overtake the clean version...

Possibly one of the best tracks Harris has released, I've had it on repeat since they premiered it. Hopeful that it'll head straight to the T10 now that it's available to purchase!

Pink Floyd instant grat up to #4!
Is it the first instant grat from their album? How will it count towards the charts?

Both Cheryl's versions are in dark green again and strectching that lead!

Posted by: Liamshikari27 Nov 3 2014, 10:26 AM

I'm glad Cheryl is looking likely to get the number one. People always talk about her being a weak vocalist and I always think like, yeah she is, and?!?!. She has generally great pop songs and quite frankly deserves to break the tie between irrelevant Geri. Rita, I'm sure will catch up!

Posted by: steve201 Nov 3 2014, 10:30 AM

Indeed, it was at 800 something yday and down to 1000 now, there must be very little between the songs sales in the charts lower reaches

Posted by: steve201 Nov 3 2014, 10:32 AM

Lets hope so. All instant grats are elegible now as they can seperate out the pre orders for the album and the single sales. Maybe Pink Floyd will be the big xmas album this year>?>

Posted by: { bré } Nov 3 2014, 10:35 AM

I can't see many people downloading a Pink Floyd album track, especially one that's essentially just a small part of a longer track. I'd be very surprised if it even made the top 100. I'm rather baffled that they of all people have even bothered releasing one.

Henry Krinkle gaining again after falling heavily for a while, yay. Really can't have this song missing the top 40.

Posted by: rey Nov 3 2014, 10:35 AM

According to the Guardian, they have 100k+ pre-orders.

Posted by: Jonjo Nov 3 2014, 10:42 AM

It's odd how Olly's instant grats are doing so amazing, but 'Wrapped Up' is yet to make the top 100 on pre-orders? Is he going to be an "albums artist" more than both, now? All his singles have done just as well as his albums, but atm although it's had a very nice increase in pre-orders, WU hasn't got anywhere near as high as I thought it would do! I'm sure he'll get top 5, but it's still a bit saddening to see the single seemingly "struggling" on pre-orders by his standards.

Posted by: ▬Mart!n▬ Nov 3 2014, 10:43 AM

That wouldn't surprise me, their album looks like a dead cert for #1 clashing with the Foo Fighters though, so it be an interesting week.

Posted by: { bré } Nov 3 2014, 10:53 AM

Didn't realise Pink Floyd were releasing the same week as Foo Fighters, that could be interesting - I'd assumed Foo Fighters were a guaranteed #1 but Pink Floyd will surely dominate physically. (Poor old Cheryl also releasing next week, I think she'll have to settle for a distant #3).

EDIT: Queen's album also out next week! Although I've seen surprisingly little hype for it, I imagine that will do pretty well regardless. High selling top 4 of new entries perhaps.

Posted by: SavenSeize's Cat Nov 3 2014, 10:54 AM

without a doubt, top 5 at least. it'll be a pretty huge hit imo

Posted by: Joe. Nov 3 2014, 11:22 AM

It seems like post-Halloween has really got the Christmas songs jumping up the chart.

Mariah is already top 300 at 288 which is crazy to me, because there's ages until Christmas, still!

I'm not totally sure Band Aid 30 is guaranteed to be a massive #1 after what happened to 'God Only Knows'...

I'd actually love for Ed Sheeran to do the John Lewis song. He might even get his third EVER #1 (that joke will never get old).

Posted by: jay727 Nov 3 2014, 02:06 PM

So technically Cheryl could have her lowest charting album. Saying that, top 3 is still a great achievement.

Would have thought Cheryl wild have looked to avoid Pink Floyd

The publicity and hype behind a possible Band Aid 30 would be greater than God Only Knows.

Posted by: MrIndependent Nov 3 2014, 03:00 PM

When does the John Lewis song premiere? Ed doing it would be great; I can't get sick of him although I don't think it'll be him.

I didn't realise next week was such a huge week for albums -- could Cheryl only debut at 4?

Posted by: steve201 Nov 3 2014, 03:22 PM

It usually premieres this saturday and is released on midnight after it!

Posted by: MrIndependent Nov 3 2014, 03:27 PM

Oh, surely there should already be confirmed news of an artist and title, then? When was Lily and her cover of Somewhere Only We Know confirmed?

Posted by: { bré } Nov 3 2014, 03:29 PM

I'm sure it would but I don't know if it would be big enough to deny the XF winner the #1.

There's also that charity cover of 'Say Something' coming out (which again I'm not sure is going to be that massive but will probably be at least top 10). Lots of covers in the Christmas top 10 it seems.

Posted by: steve201 Nov 3 2014, 03:29 PM

RE John Lewis Xmas Song - I dont think they confirm it until the last minute. Last year the song was put on utube on the friday before it was premiered during the following nights XF!

Posted by: { bré } Nov 3 2014, 03:30 PM

If they're following the same schedule as last year we should get the John Lewis announcement later this week and the song should be released next week. If it really is Ed Sheeran then he may replicate Dizzee Rascal's two #1s in 3 weeks from 2010.

Posted by: steve201 Nov 3 2014, 03:30 PM

Plus they usually release Band Aid in the first week of December and in 2004 CDs sold enough for it to sustain its sales through to xmas week whereas with downloads it might be different?!

Posted by: April Nov 3 2014, 03:31 PM

Last year they premiered it on Friday 7th on YouTube and it received its first TV play during The X Factor on Saturday 8th. There wasn't any confirmation before of the song or artist as far as I can remember.

Posted by: steve201 Nov 3 2014, 03:33 PM

At any rate if it is Ed it will surely storm to No1 due to the artist and stay in the top 5 until the end of december. If its an artist that isnt as high profile it might not do as well - it all depends on the song though as with the success of the unknown Gab Aplin in 2012 with the Power of Love

Posted by: Jonjo Nov 3 2014, 03:36 PM

Hopefully it's Leona (who has been rumoured). Hopefully it's 'Your Hallelujah' that's used. Would be perfect on a new animated style advert!

Posted by: April Nov 3 2014, 03:43 PM

Supposedly a teaser for the advert, which will premiere during Gogglebox on Friday.

Posted by: jay727 Nov 3 2014, 03:51 PM

Isn't it too late for Band Aid now? To get all the acts they want to record parts of a song, produce it, make physical copies etc etc? Seems like they are leaving themselves a lot to do in a month

Posted by: gavindeejay Nov 3 2014, 03:55 PM

Doubt it takes that long to do. All Bob Geldof done for the original was tell the artists he's recording it on this date and whoever turned up got a feature on the record, whoever didn't turn up didn't. Im not sure how he organised the 2004 one.

Posted by: { bré } Nov 3 2014, 04:33 PM

Looks like Ed could be back at #1 (though obviously not combined) by tomorrow.

Posted by: krissykins Nov 3 2014, 04:37 PM

God I hope the Leona rumours are true.

Posted by: liamk97 Nov 3 2014, 04:39 PM

I still can't believe A Million Lights sold 100k overall.

I think it's her only good album, yet the other two sold 1m and 500k. Grrr.

Hopefully Only Human is both good, and performs well.

really hope Ed Sheeran isn't this year's John Lewis Ad singer. Talk about overkill He's already rivalling Emeli Sandé 2012 for most overexposed artist, if he does this he'll be ZOOMING past her

Posted by: gooddelta Nov 3 2014, 05:02 PM

Any You Ruin Me predictions!?! I can't decide based on its pre-order trajectory whether it will be a big ballad smash or a Human/Classic style lingering low-end curiosity.

Posted by: ► ▲ N Nov 3 2014, 05:03 PM

I think it'll do a Human. Has any station played it other than Heart?

Posted by: gooddelta Nov 3 2014, 05:04 PM

Quite a few according to Compare My Radio, but none of the other majors.

Posted by: April Nov 3 2014, 05:04 PM

I think somewhere between #8 and #15.

Posted by: Dobbo Nov 3 2014, 05:06 PM

Hopefully neither...

Posted by: mr_aly Nov 3 2014, 05:11 PM

Really willing this to be a top 10 for them!

Should be possible, it's been consistently top 200 mostly on pre-orders for around a month and should gather more as the week goes on.

Posted by: gooddelta Nov 3 2014, 05:24 PM

Maybe it will have a similar chart run to Untouched? Doesn't seem out of the realms of possibility...

Posted by: Rooney Nov 3 2014, 05:24 PM

I'm fairly sure for Ban Aid 20, it was announced, then it was further announced what date they were recording, then everyone just turned up and did their parts and shot a few bits for the video. Though in the age of social media, that may be more difficult.

Posted by: Rob S Nov 3 2014, 05:44 PM

I'm thinking with streaming included obviously that "You Ruin Me" will peak at #13 next week. It might perform well on streaming though so can't count top 10 out just yet but seems pretty unlikely!

Posted by: mr_aly Nov 3 2014, 05:59 PM

I hoped with how the pre-order had been performing that even top 5 would be a possibility, but it has kind of stabilised without progressing higher than 170ish the whole time. I'm still pleased either way, such a huge fan and I never thought they'd be in contention for a top 10 hit ever again.

Posted by: Dane Nov 3 2014, 06:13 PM

Hopefully this is true, would be incredible. Never paid much attention to Your Hallelujah until it came on shuffle in July on my phone haha! Same with Mr Right, think its because I was (still am) in love with One More Sleep last year.

Posted by: { bré } Nov 3 2014, 06:59 PM

Looks like possibly only 1/2 more updates for Ed to get back to #1, he's gained massively in the last few.

I could see the explicit version of 'I Don't Care' rapidly overtaking the clean one once it falls off #1.

Posted by: girl_from_oz Nov 3 2014, 07:27 PM

I saw an article saying Debenhams are using Paul Mccartney and The Frog Chorus- We All Stand Together on their Christmas advert, so expect that to reenter the charts

Posted by: gooddelta Nov 3 2014, 07:29 PM

Thank GOD I don't work there anymore, the poor staff will be subject to hearing that 40 times a day if last year's usage of Foxes' Youth is anything to go buy.

Posted by: jay727 Nov 3 2014, 07:42 PM

Is there still a chance Ed could beat Cheryl to #1 if he overtakes at some point tomorrow?

Posted by: CherylStyles Nov 3 2014, 07:43 PM

No, she still has a version at #4 which is rapidly increasing, don't forget.

Posted by: Doctor Blind Nov 3 2014, 07:44 PM

Ed is also #1 on streaming, which equates to around 15K sales and easily wipes out that advantage.

I wouldn't write him off yet.

Posted by: Neil. S Nov 3 2014, 07:57 PM

I don't think so He will be a bit closer to her than kworb suggests due to streaming but her second version is also doing huge

Posted by: Dobbo Nov 3 2014, 08:02 PM

I wasn't too convinced at first but it should be a landslide margin for Cheryl now.

Posted by: Cameron Nov 3 2014, 08:19 PM

When will the John Lewis advert song be announced?

Posted by: CherylStyles Nov 3 2014, 08:21 PM

She'll also have streaming, it will be quite minimal of course but it doesn't count for nothing. Of course I could be wrong but I can't see her missing #1 at all if she kept it with Crazy Stupid Love, which had even bigger competition.

Posted by: Carlos V Nov 3 2014, 08:27 PM

The competition was bigger but CSL was also bigger than IDC this week. I can't see her selling more than 100k this week.

1. Ed Sheeran "Thinking Out Loud"

HA.

Posted by: CherylStyles Nov 3 2014, 10:00 PM

Not particularly unexpected - I've been fairly confident that the explicit would eventually overtake anyway.

Posted by: Joe. Nov 3 2014, 10:01 PM

Well Clean Cheryl has fallen from #1, but she's still way ahead combined. Shake she hasn't got the number 1 effect anymore.

Looks like they're pushing the explicit version now, as they've replaced the Clean with the explicit version on 'hot songs' on advertisement on iTunes.

Dunno why they didn't make explicit the main version anyway, it would clearly be more popular?!

I am not to worried for Cheryl.

She is outselling Ed by 1.45 on iTunes right now.
Basically, outselling Ed by 1.2 is enough for her to overtake both his sales and his streaming. So even if she drastically falls today, it will take some time for her to drop under that 1.2 ratio and even after that, if will take even longer for Ed to bridge the gap Cheryl has made on Sunday+Monday. Especially since the explicit version is still gaining.

Can't wait for today's midweek though!

Posted by: jafetsigfinns Nov 4 2014, 09:29 AM

Josef Salvat in the Top 100 I LOVE "Open Season" but have never heard "Diamonds" - anyone know if this is getting boosted up by some sort of ad or something?

EDIT: just listened and realized this is a cover of Rihanna's Diamonds lmao. Still great.

The first three songs take me straight back to Year 12 at sixth form! Seems longer ago now than it actually was

Hear Bruno Mars has a new song with Mark Ronson out soon, wonder what it will sound like? Hopefully something along the lines of LOOH and Treasure rather than the Lazy Song.

I think the John Lewis advert song might get revealed on Friday during Gogglebox on Channel 4. I've seen a small trailer for something called #montythepenguin and it was written that it would be shown during the time when Gogglebox is on.

Posted by: Hayzayy Nov 4 2014, 03:13 PM

New kworb update in and Ed is 74,4% on Cheryl (so he won like 0,5% or something)!

The explicit version is close to gaining as much as the clean version is losing this time.

Posted by: Envoirment Nov 4 2014, 03:23 PM

I'm just wondering, but are you including Ed's second version at #49?

Posted by: Hayzayy Nov 4 2014, 03:24 PM

I am !

I'm not counting everything outside the top 100.

Posted by: Joe. Nov 4 2014, 03:28 PM

Yeah, combined Cheryl is still 36% ahead of Ed, which is a very decent lead.

Posted by: Envoirment Nov 4 2014, 03:33 PM

Ok good to know!



Ed is outselling her on Amazon MP3 (#2 & #25 compared to #4 & #43), so once you include that and Ed's higher streaming, I think it's quite close at the moment.

P.S: Ed is also at #3, #39 & #65 on 7digital and Cheryl #41, so he's also outselling her there which'll close the gap even more.

Posted by: { bré } Nov 4 2014, 04:13 PM

When they pull off as sneaky a strategy as putting up a pre-order for a less popular version of one of their songs perhaps I really can't see why Cheryl's label would put the pre-order for the clean version apart from trying to trick people into buying it twice when they otherwise wouldn't have done so (of course the loons would do that anyway but still). The whole swearing in the chorus thing always seemed like a bit of a cynical ploy for attention in itself, no better than something like 'Loca People'. It sounds extremely out of place but it grabs the ear and gets people talking about what is in every other regard an extremely uninteresting song ~

*waits for Joseph rebuttal* (I will pre-emptively say the above is not ENTIRELY serious, though there is a bit of truth in it ~)

Posted by: steve201 Nov 4 2014, 05:20 PM

Its the exact truth for me. Loons let the love of a person/artists get in the way of being able to critically analyse a song! (awaits rebuttal)

Posted by: -Jay- Nov 4 2014, 05:30 PM

I don't think anyone else commented on this. The 1984 version wasn't recorded until 25th November and was released 4 days later. The 1989 version was very spur of the moment, with the idea occurring on 1st December, the recording taking place on 3rd Dec & released on 11th Dec. Band Aid 20 was recorded relatively earlier (14th November 2004) and was released on 29th November.

So if Band Aid 30 is being thought about now, there's definitely enough time for it to happen!

Posted by: omrimayo Nov 4 2014, 06:16 PM

Ooh I thought 'Outside' had stalled in the low top 20, I see it has sneaked up to the top 5. I hope it's a grower as I'm not really a big fan of it based on a couple of listens but always good to see Calvin and Ellie doing well anyway.

Posted by: mr_aly Nov 4 2014, 06:57 PM

That's really encouraging for The Veronicas, so hope they can achieve that top 10!

That 'Wake Me Up' cover (at least on paper) sounds like potential aural torture.

yay Outside. Another big post-album smash for Ellievin

Motion has a few more hits in the waiting - Faith, Pray to God and Together could all do well as future singles (possibly Dollar Signs too if Calvin milks this era like he did 18 Months)

Posted by: Dobbo Nov 4 2014, 07:03 PM

So have they scrapped God Only Knows as the "Official" CIN single? Or was it never "Official" in the first place.

Posted by: ► ▲ N Nov 4 2014, 07:04 PM

looks like it's a ""buzz single"" oops giving me mariah Triumphant (Get Em) teas

Posted by: { bré } Nov 4 2014, 07:06 PM

I don't think 'God Only Knows' was ever the official CIN single to be fair, it was a single to promote 'BBC Music' that also raised funds for CIN.

Posted by: Jade Nov 4 2014, 07:06 PM

I believe that was when 'Applause' and 'Roar' were released, some of that thread was quite the chore!

Also, yay for the Calvin/Ellie track taking off, definitely one of the highlights after a listen on Spotify!

Posted by: { bré } Nov 4 2014, 07:07 PM

They were released on different weeks in the UK

The release week of 'Love Me Again' must have been pretty long what with the iconic Newman looning (although that was quite frontloaded IIRC).

I wonder if Katy Perry with Fireworks will appear on iTunes tomorrow (5th November)

Posted by: Mack Nov 4 2014, 07:30 PM

She's currently at #140 at the moment.

Probably get near to the Top40, I think.

Posted by: jay727 Nov 4 2014, 07:34 PM

I expected Cheryl to be a good way ahead at this stage. Seeing as it's just 5k ish Ed should probably pinch top spot, especially when streaming is taken into account

Posted by: ML Hammer95 Nov 4 2014, 07:34 PM

All these songs need to smash! Hopefully the new video will help Kendrick too, looks like its starting too

Posted by: ▲Rob▲ Nov 4 2014, 08:22 PM

#273 Lady Gaga 'Applause'

Coming for that new peak!

Posted by: Rob S Nov 4 2014, 08:52 PM

YAY for Wizzard & Shakin Stevens showing up. My two faves XMAS tracks

Posted by: Hayzayy Nov 4 2014, 10:14 PM

So far Cheryl is following the exact same pattern than she was against MAGIC!.
Ed is 81,8% on "I don't care" and MAGIC! were 82,4% on "Crazy stupid love" at the exact same time during release week.
And she ended up with a very nice lead in the charts over MAGIC!, so hopefully it happens again.

And today's midweeks were probably missing sales from the explicit version.

Posted by: Simon. Nov 4 2014, 10:33 PM

Mary J. Blige at #66 with the fantastic 'When You're Gone' the way her team is going about this release is riling me however.

Posted by: Luciano Nov 4 2014, 10:58 PM

Cheryl's lead will grow for tomorrow's update or maybe Thursday's update. I don't think the explicit version was selling that much on Sunday but now, seeing both versions are at No.2 and No.3 the lead will only grow from now on.

Posted by: steve201 Nov 4 2014, 11:00 PM

Calvin/Ellie rising up the chart like an old fashioned release!

Posted by: andreweeyor Nov 4 2014, 11:05 PM

So the explicit version has overtaken the clean one, they're at #2 and #4.

Since Wham manage to usually sneak into the top 40 usually, and how the Pogues usually manage top 20, it's looking very good for Leona re-entering the top 40 at the moment. But it all depends how she does post-bonfire night when songs will surely jump.

Posted by: SLlewellyn Nov 5 2014, 09:50 AM

04. Calvin Harris "Outside (feat. Ellie Goulding)"

Given the streaming success/longevity of "Blame" and "Summer", I have high hopes for this being a big seller. Easily the best thing he's released in a while from an already great discography.

Posted by: BlazingLovatic Nov 5 2014, 10:35 AM

Um yeah, that last one that I did was incorrect. It seems that I've forgotten how to do simple math

Looking promising for Leona at the moment. Hopefully 'One More Sleep' can manage to climb over the 200k mark in sales this year.

Ed has lost a lot in this update
He has lost like 4% in an hour! The BBC Breakast Show is doing wonders for Cheryl

Posted by: Joe. Nov 5 2014, 10:46 AM

Massive increase for Cheryl there. Wasn't expecting that.

Posted by: Rob S Nov 5 2014, 10:46 AM

Leona 751.

702 Leona Lewis One More Sleep

It must have really resonated with people from Last Christmas.

Posted by: Rob S Nov 5 2014, 11:34 AM

Sheppard - Geronimo 630

up a near 300 places since last night. I do hope this can smash at least next year when all the gift card/ Christmas tracks are gone!

Posted by: gooddelta Nov 5 2014, 11:58 AM

*.* All without zero promo/airplay!

Posted by: CherylStyles Nov 5 2014, 12:06 PM

Huge jump for Cheryl, fantastic

Posted by: Juranamo Nov 5 2014, 12:20 PM

So with lots of promo/airplay?

Posted by: Rob S Nov 5 2014, 12:21 PM

That's what 2 plays on Gregs show does for you

Posted by: steve201 Nov 5 2014, 12:41 PM

Lets hope so, its basically her 5th week of chart life since songs like hers go into hibernation for 10 months

Posted by: steve201 Nov 5 2014, 12:45 PM

Her record company must have believed the first mids figures

Posted by: simonf Nov 5 2014, 01:22 PM

Is it a pre-order then or can you actually buy it? I thought it wasn't out last time I checked?

Posted by: Ryan. Nov 5 2014, 02:13 PM

It's a pre-order with a release date of December 8th.

Never thought of this but it looks like at some point"I don't care" could go back to the top spot, if the clean version keeps falling while the epxplicit is climbing, and before Ed overtakes her combined!

Posted by: -Jay- Nov 5 2014, 03:34 PM

It would be quite an achievement if both the clean and explicit versions peaked at #1!

Posted by: liamk97 Nov 5 2014, 03:55 PM

That would surely be a first?!

Posted by: Mack Nov 5 2014, 04:40 PM

what on earth is that

Posted by: Envoirment Nov 5 2014, 04:44 PM

That'd be quite a feat but I'm not sure if it'll be able to do it. The explicit was starting to stall before Cheryl did BBC Breakfast this morning and it looks that the effect is starting to wear off and it's starting to stall again.

Also so happy to see Leona doing well with "One More Sleep"! I hope it keeps climbing like it is.
