Come on Ella!

Posted by: JosephStyles 4th October 2014, 11:01 PM

Hunter Hayes for #1 (or realistically, top 1000 )

Posted by: Dane 4th October 2014, 11:01 PM

#TeamElla Hoping she gets top 3 at least.

Posted by: Dobbo 4th October 2014, 11:02 PM

2 great tracks in Resonance & in particular Green Light out, though only the former will do anything.

Be good to have about 5/6 new entries again this week.

Posted by: SevenSeize 4th October 2014, 11:03 PM

Kwabs to smash *.*

hope the hugely overrated 'Glow' doesn't reach the top 3 (though it obviously will)

would be nice to see Usher make the top 10 at least, another good single though not quite the standard of 'Good Kisser'

Glow to slay please
I also like anaconda so that to do well also

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 4th October 2014, 11:12 PM

Just found out that All Of Me is being performed on X-Factor tomorrow. I hate the song so much and it has spent enough time in the chart, why can't the song just die

Posted by: ▬Mart!n▬ 4th October 2014, 11:13 PM

The only release I like this week is Ella's, hope the track does well, Nicki Minaj's track is a mess, "ducks for flying saucepans" but I can see it at least top 5. I can't see anything else charting top 40, as Resonance and She Came to Give It to You probably fall out by end of the week.

Posted by: JosephStyles 4th October 2014, 11:14 PM

I recommend everyone listens to this and then buys it x

Posted by: ▬Mart!n▬ 4th October 2014, 11:22 PM

My only problem with Glow, is the constant use of Ghost on the X Factor, will people just download Ghost instead of Glow and both tracks start off with the letter G which doesn't help , just have to see how the track pans out I guess.

Posted by: Juranamo 4th October 2014, 11:37 PM

I don't understand why radio and TV haven't been playing 'Thank You', 'Classic' set a good platform for it to well here considering it done better than 'Classic' down under.

Suck, as it's a brilliant song!

Not a great start for Glow.

Expected a higher entry for Anaconda, but happy it's the highest first entry. Top 5 before midday please.
I love it was good songs (yes, I think Anaconda is good) do well without radio support.

Edit - 3 for anaconda! What a jump! Go Minaj!

Posted by: britster 4th October 2014, 11:44 PM

43. Nicki Minaj – Anaconda (Clean)

Posted by: { bré } 4th October 2014, 11:46 PM

I am surprised at LuvBug entering higher than Ella? Has 'Resonance' just been on pre-order for a lot longer? Cos I'm sure Ella has been significantly higher for a while. Or maybe I've just not paid any attention.

Welcome back to the charts for JLS' Marvin Humes anyway His wife could neva.

Posted by: Ryan. 4th October 2014, 11:56 PM

Yes, I'm sure 'Resonance' has been on pre-order since like July or something like that, it seems to have been on pre-order for ages anyway and it was constantly in the top 500 due to Capital airplay (although that seems to have stopped recently I think due to the constant release pushbacks).

Posted by: britster 4th October 2014, 11:57 PM

Posted by: Rob S 5th October 2014, 12:31 AM

Tbh I haven't really seen Glow rated very high on here at all much so don't get where you got the overrated bit from?

Anyway team Ella. Glow gets too much stick imo. Really lovely folow up to Ghost. Fingers crosses it will go top 5 at the very least!

Posted by: Sheikh Abdul 5th October 2014, 12:50 AM

So a song about big willys and big bums is #2 on UK iTunes? lol what is the United Kingdom coming to

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 5th October 2014, 12:54 AM

However Let It Go can live forever because it's amazing
I would love to see Buzzjack's reaction to Let It Go's chart-run if it followed my Personal Chart Run [it has spent over 40 weeks in the top 20 and is still top 5]

I remember her song called One Wish, that was quite a tune. She also had a song called Hold It Down that I used to hear a lot on Channel U years ago.

Posted by: Joe. 5th October 2014, 01:06 AM

I wonder if Anaconda can challenge #1 on iTunes tomorrow!

It's less than 50% of Meghan (56% if you include the clean version).

Posted by: DonaldDuck 5th October 2014, 01:37 AM

I do think 'Glow' will peak at around #06 this week now, it's a great shame that she never released with an x-Factor performance as I would have been positive it would have went top 3. I'm sure she could be on x-Factor promoting single three though.

221. MKTO - Thank You

Urgh, I'm so disappointed that no radio stations supported 'Thank You' following the success of 'Classic'

Posted by: Jason 5th October 2014, 03:35 AM

Still at #12. I'm really gutted because this song deserves much more than that.

Posted by: EyreHead 5th October 2014, 05:18 AM

After the success of Ghost, I expected Glow to have much bigger start.

Posted by: The Days 5th October 2014, 07:19 AM

Glow lower than Jeremih and LuvBug is surprising, but then again LuvBug have been on pre-orders for a really long time so I'm sure Ella will overtake at least that.

Anaconda in the top 2 Can't see it beating Meghan but it should have #2 on lock which is brilliant!

Posted by: ML Hammer95 5th October 2014, 08:02 AM

So many good releases this week (Kwabs, Shystie, Usher & Jeremih) Realistically, only Jeremiah has a chance of top 10 though

Posted by: Joe. 5th October 2014, 08:49 AM

After the brilliance of Ghost, I expected Glow to be a much better song.

Posted by: مدهش* 5th October 2014, 08:55 AM

I really like Glow, in fact I probably prefer it to Ghost. Either way, both make a really quite high quality 1-2 start for an artist from X Factor and I'm surprised the public aren't more behind Glow.

Posted by: danielw2k1 5th October 2014, 08:58 AM

Glow 9

Posted by: Ryan. 5th October 2014, 09:09 AM

8. Ella Henderson - Glow

Posted by: GTH 5th October 2014, 09:10 AM

Not really surprised by Glow's performance so far. No where near as instant and catchy as Ghost.

Fingers crossed Nicki can maintain #2 position (Meghan has too much momentum still for Nicki to get past her I know).

Posted by: ElectroBoy 5th October 2014, 09:12 AM

We should get a bit of a clear out of the top 40 this week... hopefullly off a load of older songs

Posted by: Ryan. 5th October 2014, 09:14 AM

7. Ella Henderson - Glow

Climbing very nicely now, it's doing about as well as I expected. I just hope it can keep climbing so it can secure a top 10 position officially.

Posted by: ▬Mart!n▬ 5th October 2014, 09:40 AM

Great to see Glow in the top 10 and rising, was a bit cautious about it at first, hopefully X Factor will generate a bit more of a boost tonight.

And ugh at All Of Me getting performed tonight

Posted by: The Days 5th October 2014, 09:50 AM

Glow feels like a weak recreation of Ellie Goulding's Burn for me. Still good and deserving of a comfortable top 10 place but I have to agree with the majority that Ghost is better (and then disagree again by preferring the Oliver Nelson remix to the original) Was hoping for a similarly good remix of Glow but sadly not

Posted by: Ryan. 5th October 2014, 09:52 AM

I love the Full Intention remix of 'Glow'!

Posted by: gooddelta 5th October 2014, 09:53 AM

Glow is nice album filler, but should have never been a single, or at least not the single to precede the album, it's far too much of a slow burner.

Anaconda is incredibly infectious on the other hand, I've heard it a lot on nights out (although I wouldn't say I particularly like it). For some reason I keep thinking it would make a great mashup with the UK remix of ATB's Don't Stop

Posted by: ▬Mart!n▬ 5th October 2014, 09:57 AM

I must admit Ella Henderson has really taken me by surprise with Ghost, which is turning out to be a big hit for her, follow up Glow is superb as well, for some reason I still prefer Ghost over it. Didn't think her career would take off... hats of to her.

Posted by: Dobbo 5th October 2014, 09:59 AM

Yeah Glow doesn't really do a great deal for me. I've given it plenty of time to grow but it's just fallen a bit flat.

Posted by: Sheikh Abdul 5th October 2014, 10:30 AM

Normally I don't listen to the Big Top 40 but today I will to hear Capital FM the family friendly radio station play a song about big willys and big bums

Posted by: Joe. 5th October 2014, 10:39 AM

Anaconda is on 64% combined. It's a shame it hasn't had much radio support (though I'm sure the commercial stations will start rinsing it from tomorrow onwards), because it would have been a sure-fire #1. I think it'll peak at about #80% but might fall quite dramatically after that due to lack of AirPlay.

Though the theme is a bit iffy, I think Anaconda is one of Minaj's most infectious and original songs to date.

Glow will be a flash in the pan top 10. Much like Clean Bandit's followup to their massive number 1. It'll spent limited amounts of weeks in the top 40.

Posted by: JosephStyles 5th October 2014, 10:47 AM

They've playlisted it so I doubt it'll be that huge an event.

Posted by: liamk97 5th October 2014, 10:48 AM

Well I think 'Glow' is the best song around right now and you should all be ashamed of yourselves.

Posted by: AcerBen 5th October 2014, 11:06 AM

I'm amazed any radio station would play Anaconda - it's filth!

Posted by: Regina 5th October 2014, 11:13 AM

After the pretty abysmal Ghost, I was expecting Glow to follow suit, but I kinda love it darn.

Posted by: Queen April 5th October 2014, 11:26 AM

Come on Anaconda and Glow!

She Came To Give It To You to sneak into the top 10 too please.

02. Nicki Minaj - Anaconda
06. Ella Henderson - Glow
08. Jeremih feat. YG - Don't Tell 'Em
09. LuvBug feat. Talay Riley - Resonance
11. Usher feat. Nicki Minaj - She Came To Give It To You
45. Nicki Minaj - Anaconda

Posted by: JAY17 5th October 2014, 11:34 AM

Only five decent songs in the top ten (Sigma, Calvin/John, Ella, LuvBug and George), there really hasn't been any notable releases for me for weeks now...

The high end of the charts have become too "R&B/Pop" for my liking.

Posted by: Dobbo 5th October 2014, 11:37 AM

Potential all-female top 5 this week, mirroring the Billboard.

Still a 50% lead for AATB going into week 2 is great - must be selling very well really looking forward to seeing this weeks sales - 140k?

Posted by: Eric_Blob 5th October 2014, 11:59 AM

To be fair, Capital has been playing Talk Dirty and Wiggle so I guess they're okay with it.

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 5th October 2014, 12:14 PM

I want a female to 5 so bady this week

Anyway the top 10 is amazing for me at the moment. Shake it off is the best song this year, glow, changing, bang bang, anaconda, all about that bass are all great and blame is pretty good

Posted by: James1987 5th October 2014, 12:16 PM

Can't believe LuvBug are top 10, never saw that coming! Should be a top 20 hit next week then!

Ella doing ok at 6, hopefully she'll be top 3/4 by this evening

at the Jeremih track being top 10, I massively underpredicted this but I'm hoping it doesn't climb much higher!

Posted by: The Days 5th October 2014, 12:17 PM

And a potential for no male vocals in the top 6 with Sigma's Changing likely to be #5/6 this week*. The stereotypical Buzzjack poster must be really happy right now

*excluding the uncredited vocals of Sir Mix A Lot in Anaconda obviously

Posted by: Sheikh Abdul 5th October 2014, 12:20 PM

Nicki Minaj could have 3 songs in the top 10 today.

I bet we'll see some TV ads for "Glow" this week

Posted by: Sheikh Abdul 5th October 2014, 12:28 PM

Yeah but those songs are not so bad in comparison though, apart from when 2 Chainz was talking about blowjobs in the Talk Dirty song

Posted by: britster 5th October 2014, 12:33 PM

Why has Ella made 'Glow' a single that isn't available as an instant grat on her album?

Yes, I know it's because she wants it to chart on the singles chart, but if you've pre-ordered the album, you're not going to bother to download 'Glow', you're just going to wait a week until the album is out.

This is possibly affecting sales of 'Glow'.

Posted by: Eric_Blob 5th October 2014, 12:35 PM

It's not 2 Chainz's fault, he just needed something to rhyme with "arenas".

Posted by: britster 5th October 2014, 12:35 PM

iTunes Popularity Bars

Posted by: DonaldDuck 5th October 2014, 12:35 PM

'Glow' will at least manage to peak at #04 on iTunes but will no doubt end the week at around #07. 'Anaconda' will peak at around 70% on iTunes before majorly freefalling throughout the week.

I'm still devastated that MKTO are going to miss the top 100 with 'Thank You'.

Poor Nicole Scherzinger ' On The Rocks' is released next week and its' not even top 1,500 in pop.

Posted by: The Days 5th October 2014, 12:40 PM

he could have used 'marinas' or 'cleaners' instead of… that

Posted by: Aphrodite 5th October 2014, 12:42 PM

MKTO dont deserve to flop with thank you,thankfilly sold reasonably well but i really wanted to be bigger.

Posted by: Rabbit Heart 5th October 2014, 12:43 PM

Ha!


'got those diamonds like marina's'

Posted by: JosephStyles 5th October 2014, 01:09 PM

She already has instant grats available, and Ghost is the eligible one, so any sales for Glow from the instant grat wouldn't count anyway.

Posted by: britster 5th October 2014, 01:29 PM

I know that, but it is affecting her chart position.

I disagree that Glow is underwhelming, I think it's another really strong single from Ella, she'll probably become one of my favourite X Factor acts providing she doesn't release a dud any time soon.

I don't really know what to say about Anaconda, really, it leaves me completely unsure what to think of it. Rather 'gimmicky' top 2 we have atm, for want of a better word.

Sheridan for a Top 10 hit please!

Posted by: DonaldDuck 5th October 2014, 02:33 PM

'Anaconda' has only gained 1% on Meghan Trainor in the last two hours and it's increasing the same speed as 'Bang Bang'. 'Glow' is currently increasing more than any other song in the top 10.

Posted by: Jade 5th October 2014, 02:39 PM

I had no idea that Sheridan's version of 'Anyone Who Had a Heart' had been released Probably should have been done about a week or two ago but better late than never, really hope it can chart top 40 officially!

Posted by: danielw2k1 5th October 2014, 02:52 PM

All female top 5 on ITunes right now

Posted by: Sheikh Abdul 5th October 2014, 03:23 PM

So according to these statistics does this mean that Glow is possibly going to be #2?

Posted by: GTH 5th October 2014, 03:24 PM

I am guessing they only left it so late so Cilla's original versions had a chance to get some decent sales. Would definitely be doing better if released earlier though. Really hope Anyone Who Had A Heart manages a top 40 position.

Posted by: Ryan. 5th October 2014, 03:31 PM

No chance, the highest 'Glow' will peak on iTunes this week is #3 but will more than likely peak at #4. That's still better than it was looking a couple of weeks ago so keep going Ella!

Posted by: jase. 5th October 2014, 04:27 PM

'Glow' is wonderful and not underwhelming in the slightest

I assume she'll perform on the first X-Factor live show next Sunday so that should give it a huge boost

Posted by: gooddelta 5th October 2014, 05:00 PM

Farting out Sheridan Smith's Cilla covers this late reminds me of when Lena's Satellite took ages to appear after her Eurovision win. Hype evaporated.

I was looking at some 2011 archive charts on the OCC website and noticed that at one point this song rose from #22 to #3. Does anyone here know what day of the week this song was originally released? it seems strange for a song released on a Sunday to make this kind of jump.

It was released a few months before it actually got popular (due to the video going viral), so it didn't have a typical held-back release type run

So pleased for 'Glow', if it can actually manage #4 in the chart then that's totally respectable.

Posted by: Ryan. 5th October 2014, 10:11 PM

It's the song used in the opening titles for BBC One drama "Our Girl" that is shown on Sunday nights.

Wonder if When I Fall In Love by Nat King Cole will be the next song to do wonders after appearing in an advert

So frustrating to see Anaconda at #2 and She Came To Give It To You at #11.

So close to a Nicki Minaj-a-trois top 10!

1228. Luminites - It Hurts So Good

I'd love Steph to sing this during the live shows, it's an incredible cover and really shows what a fantastic recording voice Steph has.

Posted by: Eric_Blob 5th October 2014, 11:02 PM

As someone else said, it was released ages before.

The song was just a very instant hit I guess. I remember the first time I heard it, it was on Radio 1 early in the morning when I was on the way to work. Only took a few radio plays for it to go shooting up the charts (I can't remember if the video was out at that point or not, but either way it increased in sales very fast).

Oh I see. So a bit like Gangnam Style then?

A song like Party Rock Anthem would have certainly been #1 on the shazam chart if it existed then. The shazam chart is made for unusual sounding songs like this.

Oh no, I thought it was 2 weeks! Capital and Kiss keep playing Boom Clap, which isn't a great help.

In general, though, even though it's wonderfully produced, it really isn't her best effort. I think the lyrics 'getting high and getting wrecked' are really childish and off-putting. I do want this to be a hit though, because I love XCX and want her whole album campaign to be fully supported.

Posted by: pippa 6th October 2014, 08:12 AM

I hope the Vamps can achieve their 5th top 10 hit with oh cecilia.

Posted by: fchd 6th October 2014, 11:36 AM

I hope not. I haven't even heard the Vamps' version yet, but it's a pretty terrible song to begin with and their previous singles don't exactly make me want to hurry to listen to it.

Posted by: James1987 6th October 2014, 11:54 AM

Me too, I cannot stand The Vamps! This is such a poor cover but sadly it will end up top 5 as they do have a huge fanbase

Posted by: steve201 6th October 2014, 11:56 AM

I know each of their songs keep hovering around 30-50 on itunes then the held back version featuring someone random propels it into the top 10 for 1 random week which makes its chart run look alot better than it should.

Taylor Swift is over in the live lounge this Thursday so i assume shes promoing Shake it Off here - hope shes on Graham Norton/Alan Carr - could help the single even more!

Posted by: Rob S 6th October 2014, 11:58 AM

She is on Graham Norton show Friday

They pulled it forward a week, which I'm really not convinced was a good move.

Posted by: Joe. 6th October 2014, 01:44 PM

Why on earth did they do that? An extra week of airplay could have done wonders. How long has it been on Spotify?

Capital have started to actually play Anaconda now. Hopefully that'll stop it from plummeting too quickly.

Posted by: lewistgreen 6th October 2014, 01:57 PM

It's definitely an odd move for a song that's not had such a massive impact. Pretty sure it's only been on Spotify 5 or 6 days but I only stumbled on it by chance so I doubt that's even had much of an impact either.

Extremely happy to see it this high, one of the only Rhythmic radio smashes in America to break through here [/justicefor2On]. Will be interesting to see how this holds up in the coming weeks as Capital have only just started to spin it more and Radio 1 airplay kicked in today. It should move up to the A-List in either 2 or 3 weeks so I hope it does a "Wild Ones" of some sort!

Sadly Jeremih's overtaken Ella at number 4 on iTunes, I hope it doesn't stay this high it's dreadful!

Shocked to see LuvBug actually climb to 7, I thought it would hover around 9-10 then fall out the top 10 so hoping for another good top 10 clear out!

Apparently the name comes from an old garage track called Love Bug by Ramsey and Fen?!

Posted by: James1987 6th October 2014, 11:27 PM

Great to see Watermat a good 100 places ahead of 1D on pre orders...not that it means anything but it gives me some small pleasure in life

3. Jessie J, Ariana Grande & Nicki Minaj - Bang Bang 0.5194

4. Jeremih - Don't Tell 'Em (feat. YG) 0.5168

Posted by: Joe. 7th October 2014, 09:50 AM

I think so, as long as she has no other instant grats on the album already.

Yep, and loads of other X Factor songs like Right Place Right Time, Live While We're Young, DNA, The Climb, Bad Boys, Bleeding Love etc. The 59p batch is hidden on main page so I'm not sure how much effect it will take.

Posted by: *Ben* 7th October 2014, 11:29 AM

Correct.

Only Human is an instant grat. And it looks to me this is the first instant grat from the album, so it must be chart eligible.

Posted by: mr_aly 7th October 2014, 11:38 AM

You always say things like this, and it sounds daft. Obviously a newly released song that has had a lot of exposure and pre-orders will be being bought more than the thousands of songs available on iTunes.

Posted by: Eric_Blob 7th October 2014, 12:26 PM

It's still a strange thought though, and puts things in perspective, since people on here have a tendency to label even #1 songs (like I Wanna Feel recently) as flops.

Posted by: *Ben* 7th October 2014, 12:32 PM

That's not really true in this sense. People compare I Wanna Feel to the other number 1s of the year, and in comparison to those, it was a flop number 1 because it debuted at number 1, but departed very quickly and its sales didn't reach the average sales of a number 1 single.

Posted by: Sheikh Abdul 7th October 2014, 01:59 PM

Has this Jeremiah song had lots of exposure though? it's only just been added to the Radio 1 playlist and there doesn't appear to be a music video. Also songs like these don't normally appear so high in the chart so for those reasons a bit crazy to see it as high as it is.

Posted by: Ne Plus Ultra 7th October 2014, 02:05 PM

"I Wanna Feel" has only sold 240,000 copies since it was released, so it is kind of an underperformance compared to the others so far.

Posted by: *Ben* 7th October 2014, 02:10 PM

To me it's like a Chris Brown or Usher song and both artists are usually (not always!) high on the charts

Posted by: Dobbo 7th October 2014, 02:13 PM

But those artists are well established in the UK and will at least always have a loyal fanbase that will buy any of their output. That's what makes this Jeremih track's performance even more bizarre. I actually really like the track though, so I'm certainly not complaining!

Posted by: ML Hammer95 7th October 2014, 02:19 PM

Even Loyal didn't get this high on iTunes though!?

Definitely a strange one, as DJ Mustard has been ubiquitous in the last 12 months, but this is the first UK smash since Feelin' Myself. The sample is so catchy though and seemingly the lack of video hasn't hindered this!

Loving its unexpected success

Posted by: steve201 7th October 2014, 02:23 PM

It is def worth a post that Jeremiah is No3 as was said its C listed on radio 1 , Capital are supporting it and 1 Xtra and thats it. Its also worth adding Rnb is nt the most popular genre at the moment - most rnb artists release pure pop nowadays!

Posted by: DonaldDuck 7th October 2014, 02:25 PM

Congrats on your job working with the 59p batch!

125. Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars

It's happening!!

Posted by: ML Hammer95 7th October 2014, 02:32 PM

2014 has been much better for R&B hits though; Loyal, Good Kisser, New Flame, Na Na, Birthday and artists like Fuse ODG have obvious R&B influences in their songs!

Posted by: steve201 7th October 2014, 02:36 PM

Yeah of course there have been a decent amount of Rnb hits (and its making a comeback) but radio hasnt really followed suit in terms of airplay with the exception of Fuse ODG.

Think Capital have playlisted most of the songs I mentioned (whether they were actually played is another matter ) R1 haven't really played any R&B except Fuse ODG. So you're right unfortunately although Tinashe's Pretend is on the INMWT list so maybe things are changing

YG is the rapper who brought us this iconicfest by the way



Don't Tell Em is quite good, I wish it was Down On Me that was Jeremih's big UK hit though. It did very well here considering the lack of airplay it got though

Posted by: Dobbo 7th October 2014, 05:08 PM

I thought YG also did Racks, but apparently that was YC...

2. Nicki Minaj - Anaconda 0.5862

3. Jeremih - Don't Tell 'Em (feat. YG) 0.5392

Even though it's under the ??? category this song could get to #2 soon!

Posted by: Eric_Blob 7th October 2014, 06:16 PM

I think Nicki Minaj will be #3 this week, as I think it'll be a bit front-loaded in sales (mainly due to lack of airplay) and Bang Bang will have the advantage with higher streaming. I'm normally spot-on when it comes to predicting Nicki's chart success, so I'm confident about this.

Not sure where Jeremih will land. I think #6 or something.

I just thought it was an unnoticed random release.

Posted by: mr_aly 7th October 2014, 07:36 PM

Regarding the new AC/DC single pre-order that is currently just outside the top 30, am I right in thinking that it seems like it is a single pre-order within an album pre-order? Both are charting as pre-orders on their respective charts - it's something I've never seen before.

I'm guessing that's an error and it's meant to just be a standard instant grat.

Just listened to 'God Only Knows', a pretty good cover I think. Could definitely support it going to #1 ~ Apparently being released under the name 'The Impossible Orchestra'. Cool name.

Posted by: The Days 7th October 2014, 09:53 PM

It's already on spotify, confusingly though the artist credit is Brian Wilson and Various Artists but the cover art suggests it's by BBC Music. No mention of The Impossible Orchestra anyway

Posted by: Mango 7th October 2014, 10:39 PM

Is that actually for real? Or has someone just overdubbed a comedy vocal on it?! Why would she sing it like that?

Posted by: April 7th October 2014, 10:44 PM

Someone's obviously dubbed over it. She tweeted about it saying that she found it hilarious.

So has God Only Knows shown up on itunes yet

Posted by: James1987 7th October 2014, 11:44 PM

It's not on mine which is a bit odd, I'm going to check first thing in the morning!

I hate the fact 1D are on this as soon as i saw them on the video my heart sank but at least it's one line and they're voices could be anyone's and least they won't be getting a credit on this so I'm happy

Posted by: { bré } 7th October 2014, 11:46 PM

Had a look for it and it doesn't seem to have been added yet. The original is up to #138 however

Posted by: Jason 7th October 2014, 11:50 PM

Oh yes! McBusted are going to slay next month.

However, I'm gutted for Ella Henderson. I'm not sure if she will be top 5 on Sunday now.

No, John Martin (34 years old) is a Swedish singer, Sam Martin (31 years old) is an American singer-songwriter.

Posted by: { bré } 8th October 2014, 12:03 PM

Ah, so it is indeed credited to 'Brian Wilson & Various Artists' - I suppose that's fair for Brian Wilson to be credited separately as he has marginally the most vocals on the track and is also its songwriter but I don't like the 'Various Artists' credit. 'The Impossible Orchestra' was a good name, wish they had used that.

Posted by: omrimayo 8th October 2014, 12:04 PM

I guess a little bit too late to do 100K this week and take the number 1 spot...

Posted by: Dobbo 8th October 2014, 12:09 PM

Yeah surely far too late, I doubt it'll have much streaming either as most people will support it through purchasing only.

Posted by: James1987 8th October 2014, 12:17 PM

Not only have we got the WORST iTunes top 4 of the year but now this is looking likely to be a number 1 next month......

Praying for Avicii to stop this getting to number one, everything about this makes me cringe

Posted by: steve201 8th October 2014, 12:18 PM

Hozier could well repeak this week - its at 29 & 61 on itunes and rising further on spotify at 23!!

Did Ben Howard promo anywhere the new single I forget where we were is up to 42 now, last i seen it was just top 90. Is it just as a result of radio 1 B listing?

Posted by: { bré } 8th October 2014, 12:21 PM

It's not in any way 'looking likely to be a #1' (yet) - this is exactly what the last McFly lead single did and it only got to #6. They have a very big fanbase, iy's not going to cross over and be a massive hit unless radio pick it up which I don't see happening.

Posted by: omrimayo 8th October 2014, 12:29 PM

It's just an amazing song!!

Posted by: omrimayo 8th October 2014, 12:30 PM

53!

Posted by: steve201 8th October 2014, 12:36 PM

I know its annoying that radio 1 dont show more support 5 weeks on the B List isnt enough. Dont think any other station supported him (although im not sure about XFM etc). Thanks to Jolols Holland for giving him the promo he needed to help it into the top 40 on itunes properly!

Posted by: sasha2 8th October 2014, 12:44 PM

I can see radio picking it up personally, and its hard to compare this release to the last McFly one. For a start this release has a major record label's backing compared to McFly releasing their tracks through their own one. Plus this track literally has so much hype. Yeah, the last McFly one was caught up in the hype of McBusted forming and had a strange McBusted version on sale, but this will be publicised very well, I think.

Also worth noting that they have a lot of friends and fans in the industry willing to help to promote both the single and the album too, which I'm sure will help. This album has been penned with people like Mark Hoppus from Blink 182 (who has already tweeted his followers asking them to purchase Air Guitar), Alex Gaskarth from All Time Low, the Madden Brothers etc. etc. Plus looking back at who were tweeting about McBusted last year, I wouldn't be surprised to see the One Direction & 5 Seconds of Summer lads tweeting about the single, too, which would be huge promo (and particularly useful with the 5SOS market, given the sound). Even Ed Sheeran tweeted his excitement about them last year, so who knows. Will be interesting to see the impact the VEVO lyric video debut will have tonight at 8pm. They've been trending since the single was announced yesterday, too.

Interesting that the single will be available to pre-order worldwide too from tomorrow. Guessing they're going to attempt a "10 years too late" Busted jump across the pond at some point.

EDIT: Plus we are talking about a band that at the last count in June, had the 29th highest grossing tour worldwide this year, selling 320,000+ tickets. & that was before the Hyde Park gig. All of those tickets were in the UK & Ireland only.

I've downloaded 'God Only Knows' I think, but it's not showing up in my library. Fantastic. (I think this is just an issue with my computer though as since I updated iTunes the other day it keeps carshing when it attempts to connect to iCloud. Hmph)

Didn't 5 O'Clock have a really slow start? I remember everybody celebrating about it flopping (since that's what it seemed like at first), then it ended up getting #1 for a bit mid-week. I might be getting it mixed up with another song, but I think it was 5 O'Clock this happened with.

This has been stuck in my head all day! Absolutely love it! Works so well with the featured singers only singing one line.

The original is now #74, #623, #987 and #1381. Bryan Adam's cover is #1256.

Posted by: { bré } 8th October 2014, 03:47 PM

Ed Sheeran's 'Thinking Out Loud' up to #10 following the release of the video - may get kicked out later by 'God Only Knows' though. That is up to #22 now.

100. Hunter Hayes - Tattoo (UK Version)

Never did I think I'd see Hunter Hayes in the iTunes top 100 in the UK Was at least #89 earlier too, thanks to his This Morning interview (a large chunk of the video got played too).

Posted by: ElectroBoy 8th October 2014, 05:08 PM

Meh to God Only Knows - the original is great but a 'charity' version with a sh!tload of stars on it - if each and everyone of the featured acts actually gave up just a tiny % of their wealth then there would be no need for a cover version for the charity in the first place.

One Directions pre order doing the opposite of most upcoming releases and moving down the chart as it's release nears - wonder if people are reacting badly to the song or they should have just released it this week or even properly OAOS?

Posted by: JosephStyles 8th October 2014, 05:44 PM

You say that when it's actually jumped up a lot since yesterday.... It was outside the top 200 yesterday and is now #138 in Jase's update, so a big improvement I think.

Posted by: mr_aly 8th October 2014, 05:52 PM

I'm glad to see Charli now a lot higher in pre-orders than earlier in the week, I need this to at least make the top 10.

I still think moving it forward a week was a stupid move.

Posted by: sasha2 8th October 2014, 05:54 PM

They've done no promo for it but the video comes out on the weekend which will give it the boost it needs for release week I guess. Not a fan of it myself, the free track "Fireproof" was much better.

Yeah, that's how I remember it - everyone expected it to be a huge entry on Sunday and it wasn't. So it did get to iTunes Number One later in the week but had no chance of getting there officially. And it didn't hang around long either.
Poor song IMO so I wasn't disappointed.

Posted by: mr_aly 8th October 2014, 07:47 PM

There was me claiming a few weeks ago that they'd left it at least 4 years too late for anybody in the world (let alone in the UK) to show any interest. As a longtime fan of theirs I'm completely over the moon. I wonder how far it can go if it's steadily this high on pre-orders a month before release?

Posted by: gooddelta 8th October 2014, 07:48 PM

With Radio 1 backing too it could go top five I'm sure. It looks like it will do decently even without though at this point. And all because of Heart

Posted by: Jonjo 8th October 2014, 07:53 PM

Absolutely amazing. Such a beautiful song deserves recognition and I'm so ecstatic to see it's likely to be a moderately big sized hit for them! If they could do a 'Jar Of Hearts' that'd be GREAT! *.*

Posted by: ►▲N 8th October 2014, 08:24 PM

The Veronicas were one act I never expected to return to relevance especially as it's been five years since their last hit (and slightly longer since the only song they're actually remembered for charted) what a way to remove a one-hit wonder tag if it does do the business

Posted by: gooddelta 8th October 2014, 08:34 PM

I'm always amazed by their UK career trajectory. Untouched came out two years late, 4Ever was FOUR years late (and suffered from a lot of P!nk copycat allegations - oops but it came out a year before U + Ur Hand originally, so who copied who exactly!?!) and now we're somehow getting You Ruin Me only a month and a half after it's Australian debut, I thought we'd have to wait until the end of the decade for it

No of course not, but what I mean is I don't think 'You Ruin Me' will have that level of success.

Posted by: James1987 8th October 2014, 11:54 PM

Given that its out on Sunday I'd say its surprising they're only up to 138! Not that it will stop it getting to number one sadly though as it went top 40 when it was first announced but I'm loving the fact that Watermat has been way above them for a few days now!!

Posted by: James1987 8th October 2014, 11:56 PM

Posted by: GTH 9th October 2014, 08:08 AM

The odds would have been very high at the beginning of the year of Jeremih getting into the iTunes Top3. Containing references to "Rhythm Is A Dancer" in parts.

What was the chart run for 'Down On Me' by the way?


8. Brian Wilson & Various Artists- God Only Knows



258. Pharrell- Gust of Wind

How high do people think this will climb up if he is performing this on the results show of The X Factor?

Not surprised at the slower climb for Brian Wilson - it didnt have a pre order so is rising naturally!

Posted by: Eric_Blob 9th October 2014, 09:44 AM

Yeah, Gust Of Wind is awesome, much better than the other three singles imo.

I wouldn't have ever expected him to get top 3 on iTunes tbh. If we went back to 2009 and asked people who'd have a longer career, Jeremih or Lady Gaga, I think we know who most people would've said.

Forgot if I mentioned this before or not, but I'll mention it again just in case I didn't, in terms of Jeremih sampling old eurodance songs, he had a song with Ludacris earlier in the year which sampled Barbie Girl by Aqua of all things.

353. Jeremih ft. 50 Cent - Down On Me
1154. Jeremih - Birthday Sex

662. YG ft. Lil Wayne, Meek Mill, Rich Homie Quan & Nicki Minaj - My Hitta Remix (this YG's most famous song, for those who don't know)
1155. YG ft. Drake - Who Do You Love?

Posted by: ▬Mart!n▬ 9th October 2014, 09:44 AM

Definitely not a contender for #1 this week, especially now as its slowing down I was expecting the track to be further up, could have a chance next week with a full week of download sales, depends how well OneD do on Sunday, otherwise it be a #1 contender for Week 3.

Posted by: Joe. 9th October 2014, 09:56 AM

204 Charli XCX Break the Rules

It'll probably peak around 12 - 15, now with streaming being counted, but it's doing a bit better now. Fully annoyed Capital and Kiss are still playing 3 month old Boom Clap every 30 minutes instead of her new song, though. R1 B list is the song's only exposure really.

70 Katy Perry This Is How We Do
Since this was dropped from the playlists weeks ago, it's holding up okay.

24 G.R.L. Ugly Heart

Shame this has fallen out of the top 20 now, and that #11 peak still hurts, but considering it's doing so well o streaming, it'd be great if this could hit silver eventually.

Posted by: gooddelta 9th October 2014, 10:07 AM

I seriously doubt it will be a contender for the top spot any time soon unless it gets a proper push from somewhere. It's not instantly taken off in the way it might have been expected to although there's obviously still plenty of time with the future Children In Need promo.

These all-star songs can't always be guaranteed to smash, I still remember 1999's It's Only Rock & Roll (low top 20) and the Artists Against Aids' What's Going On (No.6)...

Posted by: Dobbo 9th October 2014, 10:41 AM

Considering Pharrell is on the brink of UK chart record history, you'd think he'd be performing Happy on the X-Factor results. Would almost certainly guarantee that elusive 46th consecutive top 40 week.

Anyway Taylor's in live lounge today so hopefully another boost (it sounds like she's also doing riptide by vance joy)

But isn't he reportedly performing Gust Of Wind? I can see the sense in it promoting the new single but with what he could achieve! (Maybe he'll do a 30 second Happy excerpt at the end )

Charli's now up to 197
Does she have any promo lined up?

Posted by: Joe. 9th October 2014, 11:24 AM

Taylor's Shake It Off was embarrassingly bad on the Live Lounge. Her mic wasn't working, it sounded like a mouse singing with loud backing singers. Her cover of Riptide was amazing though, I bet that will get a boost.

Posted by: omrimayo 9th October 2014, 11:24 AM

@takethat: We can officially confirm that our new single is premiering tomorrow morning across UK radio! Tune in from 7:30am.


I guess the November 24th album is now confirmed... just the trip though.

Posted by: Hayzayy 9th October 2014, 11:48 AM

But didn't they split up or something?

Posted by: mr_aly 9th October 2014, 12:02 PM

I'm pretty sure 'Happy' will get a significant boost anyway.



No, they lost a member and said they'll carry on as a trio.

Posted by: MC Delroy 9th October 2014, 12:18 PM

Even if he performs Gust Of Wind, Happy will still get a major boost. In fact there's a very good chance that Happy will get more of a boost than the new single because I would think that when people think of Pharrell it's Happy that comes to mind first, I know that's the case for me anyway but even for the older generation they might only know that 1 song from Pharrell.

Posted by: Hayzayy 9th October 2014, 12:19 PM

Weren't they 5 the last time they released an album? I can feel that Sugababes impact
Next we could have Nadine, her daughter and her chihuahua to release an album as "Girls Aloud" then.


Anyway, with Robbie left and more room left for Garry, I can feel this comeback is really going to be really annoying.

Posted by: DonaldDuck 9th October 2014, 12:24 PM

I'm still gutted about how much MKTO 'Thank You' has performed. I don't understand why radio never supported 'Thank You' following the success of 'Classic'.

iTunes Pop.

It's been reduced to 59p, hopefully it helps 'On The Rocks' go top 1,000 tonight on iTunes.

Robbie was confirmed ages ago to not be with Take That for this project, and Jason Orange left last month.

Its quite sad really , they are more than likely never to have another No1 in the singles chart ever again. Although Robbie could be No1 in November with Avicii although uncredited.

Take That will be #1 regardless of the competition it's up against (except maybe One Direction), so I don't think it'll bother them in anyway. Syco might want to push back the likes of Olly Murs though, Susan Boyle less so (albums have missed the summit in the past).

Some Nights back in the top 100. AMAZING

Posted by: gavindeejay 9th October 2014, 09:15 PM

There's no way Radio 1 will support Take That's new single this time around. They snubbed both Robbie and Gary's solo stuff over the past few years. I do think that Robbie's only appearing on Avicii or Dizzee Rascal tracks as he knows that's the only way onto Radio 1's playlist now. He's a very clever guy.

I wonder what Take That's first week album sales will be like in this day and age of low sales. I around predict 200k max.

Robbie's most recent Top 10 hits have mostly come in November and tied in with an X-Factor performance. He may not need the BBC, but he does need ITV to provide any kind of hit.

Posted by: { bré } 9th October 2014, 09:52 PM

'Go Gentle' wouldn't have been a hit without X Factor (really it's amazing it managed top 10 even with it as it's not exactly a very chart-friendly song) but 'Candy' was a legitimately big song in its own right.

Posted by: JosephStyles 10th October 2014, 01:00 PM

Yeah I don't think, at ALL, that Jeremih is more relevant than Lady Gaga. Seems very much like this track isn't selling off of who the artist is, more on the track itself (see Alyssa Reid a couple of years ago).

Posted by: steve201 10th October 2014, 01:05 PM

Lady GaGa's time has gone, her type of music has nigh on vanished from the charts and her celebrity status in the UK has dimmed and other popstars have taken her place. Plus nobody I know ever talks about her, only on here!

Jeremih may not be as famous, but his music is more culturally relevant by far.

Posted by: Kath ha Essence 10th October 2014, 01:44 PM

Lol please tell me you're being sarcastic

Posted by: mr_aly 10th October 2014, 01:46 PM

Whilst I do agree that Gaga's star has diminished quite significantly, you can't SURELY believe that bit?

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 10th October 2014, 01:47 PM

Which artist had a #1 album on billboard last week with a genre that is way out of their usual stuff genres.
Gaga so she is way bigger still. Jeremih might have a #2 single at the moment but I am sure lots more people know about cheek to cheek

And loads of people still talk about her, there was like a 10 minute conversation in my music class a couple of weeks ago about poker face

Posted by: *Ben* 10th October 2014, 01:48 PM

I'd love it if this gets a boost

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 10th October 2014, 01:50 PM

Ooh Toxic is being performed by probably the most talked about contestant this year so far on X-Factor
Hopefully one of the best songs ever gets a boost then


I can't wait to hear Changing, AATB, Ghost, Kids In America so I hope they all get boosts

Posted by: ML Hammer95 10th October 2014, 02:02 PM

Aha I agreed that GaGa is bigger than Jeremih, but that's not exactly saying much!! Seems pointless saying this, but she just seemed a flash in the pan from 2009 with diminishing returns ever since.

Posted by: ▬Mart!n▬ 10th October 2014, 02:04 PM

Somebody is going to murder a Kim Wilde classic

Posted by: Kath ha Essence 10th October 2014, 02:15 PM

How are WW sales for Born This Way (6 million) and ARTPOP (2 million) flash in the pan? If Jeremih's music was more culturally relevant as you say, surely he'd have #1 album after #1 album, a 50+ million strong fanbase, 5 grammys, sell-out WW tour after sell-out WW tour?

Sure she isn't on the same form as her debut era, but which artist around at the moment will be able to equally sustain an era of that degree of success? I also can't think of another mainstream artist who'd be able to amount of the success Gaga has had over the last two weeks with a Jazz album consisting entirely of covers. Gaga irrelevant? HARDLY.

Posted by: steve201 10th October 2014, 02:15 PM

Its No1s night i think on XF!

Posted by: shadow2009 10th October 2014, 02:31 PM

What is it with GaGa fans and constantly bringing up stars and numbers that aren't even relevant to the conversation? GaGa was MASSIVE in 2009/2010 (definitely the biggest pop star on the planet) but Born This Way failed to catapult her any higher and actually lost her fans and showed that she was just a fluke. ArtPop was hyped up for months as being an incredible work of art by GaGa yet it was quite simply (just like her other releases) a pop album. She didn't have a hit in 2012, had a mediocre hit in 2013 and hasn't had a hit in 2014 so I think it's easy to say there's a huge lack of interest in her. She can try all the shock tactics, crazy outfits, speeches, self indulgent music videos and social media hype she wants but her time as a huge pop star has gone.

I don't even know why I bother with ignorant posters like you, it's common sense that Lady Gaga is relevant hence why I stated her sales etc as they manifest that, you and a few others deeming JEREMIH more relevant than her are the flukes.

When you're filling arenas and topping the charts, you're relevant no matter what way you look at it. People bitching about her "flopping" can't even get 100 likes on a Tumblr post.

Posted by: mr_aly 10th October 2014, 02:57 PM

I'd welcome that! An eternal classic.

Posted by: *Ben* 10th October 2014, 03:05 PM

I don't really get why Lady Gaga was brought up at all (thanks Eric_blob for the meaningless comparison Jeremih/Lady Gaga )

Who's culturally relevant this year? Well certainly not Jeremih. Don't tell 'Em is a good song but nothing more.
Relevant is this year Ed Sheeran, George Ezra, Sam Smith, Coldplay or even Pharrell Williams in my opinion (of course)

Posted by: ML Hammer95 10th October 2014, 03:09 PM

Don't think I've heard any of this number 1 album she's got out atm, is it on the radio/music channels or anything!? When there's Sam Smith and Ed Sheeran enjoying all their success, dance music topping charts worldwide and genres like Hip Hop, R&B, Grime and Afrobeats making inroads back into the mainstream, its hard to argue Lady GaGa is still the trendsetting and relevant star she once was

Posted by: JosephStyles 10th October 2014, 03:11 PM

It's a side project thing. I'm a Gaga fan and not remotely interested in it, but you have to admit, to get an album of jazz songs with an old man top 10 (and #1 in the US) is a pretty good achievement really, especially as she isn't as popular as she once was.

Posted by: Mango 10th October 2014, 03:16 PM

Why are we arguing about Lady Gaga? She was once the biggest pop star on the planet, now she's not, end of.

Anyway I'm looking forward to hearing Toxic on the X Factor, though I'm not fussed about all the recent #1s mentioned that are gonna be performed.

Posted by: Joe. 10th October 2014, 03:16 PM

Hahaha! The Tony Bennett shade!

Bennett does not interest me in the SLIGHTEST, but he's a bit of name and people with certain demographics, so some of the sales would have been for him not her.

I do hope Gaga can manage another hit single though, when she was on her game she churned out some proper bangers. I fear for her future radio support.

Posted by: Mango 10th October 2014, 03:16 PM

I'm sure One Direction did the year they were on

Posted by: ML Hammer95 10th October 2014, 03:17 PM

Ah right, in which case that's an impressive feat, especially since its only likely to have got there on her name alone.

I don't hate GaGa, I just think people have moved on from the type of music she's famous for. As such an 'icon' of that time period, its only natural interest in her dies down as well.

Posted by: Noahspike 10th October 2014, 03:25 PM

YG on the other hand, as he's the real reason the song is doing so well...

this is sarcasm

Posted by: ►▲N 10th October 2014, 04:15 PM

people don't seriously believe Jeremih is more relevant than Lady GaGa simply because he happens to have a big hit single right now and she doesn't? Relevance isn't just based on this week's charts, I'd say she's still quite relevant despite her relevance not being nearly as high as it was in 2009/10.

I wonder ate people over estimating 1D?SMG seems to be doing bad nearly everywhere and if it were to go number 1 here,it would be one of the only countries..fans don't even seem to be feeling this track and the song isn't that high on pre orders?

Posted by: Doctor Blind 10th October 2014, 10:22 PM

I fully expect 1D to peak at number 2. You can quote me on that!

Posted by: { bré } 10th October 2014, 10:59 PM

I can't see 1D getting #1 either, unless sales drop fairly low and considering 'All About That Bass' is being performed on XF tomorrow it may well get a decent sales spike again. There definitely seems to be far less hype around them than there was last era and this song has underperformed in the USA (got to #1 with a big lead to start with admittedly, but it dropped very quickly and only debuted at #13 on the Hot 100, a pretty massive dropoff from the #2 debut of 'Best Song Ever') in addition to not doing spectacularly on pre-orders here. Honestly wouldn't be that surprised if it's not even top 2.

*goes to #1*

That Eminem/Sia track is out on Monday according to the new releases thread, won't just be Meghan who is a thorn in 1d's side next week

Posted by: { bré } 11th October 2014, 12:21 AM

Eminem will be low top 10 at best, any hype this song had is long gone now.

Posted by: ►▲N 11th October 2014, 07:02 AM

yeah I expected the 1D song to gain hype before release but it doesn't seem to be happening. Another week at #1 for Meghan then. I think she'll get 5 in total as there doesn't seem to be another #1 contender until Cheryl releases.

Posted by: blueHOse02 11th October 2014, 07:45 AM

Will be interesting to see how Eminem does... I think i could be a top ten mon/tues and fade off during the week. It'll still get a top 40 chart though. Could do a Survival or a Rap God with a lower peak.

Posted by: sasha2 11th October 2014, 08:50 AM

The 1D track has its video out on Sunday - featuring Danny DeVito. Should gain it some much needed hype and publicity (however I'm still not a big fan of the track - like I said before the song they gave away for free was better).

EDIT: Probably worth noting the speculation that the song has been blacklisted from several big radio stations in the US due to their team refusing interviews during the tour. One of them tweeted a dig at Capital as well yesterday (didn't they fall out over them thanking Radio 1 instead of them at the BRITs a couple of years ago?)

Posted by: Dane 11th October 2014, 10:41 AM

Yeah Harry said 'A big thanks to Radio One' when the award was voted by Capital Listeners, don't think they've been played ever since! & that was in 2012 I think! It's a shame really because they didn't do it on purpose, & apologized after but Capital haven't forgiven.

I personally really like One Directions new song! One of my favorites of theirs!

3. Shake it off
4. Bang bang

Posted by: JosephStyles 11th October 2014, 11:10 AM

They have been played since I know Story of My Life was playlisted and I assume Best Song Ever was, although they snubbed the two post-album singles. Really strange for them to not be supporting this new one so far, especially as 1D are the biggest group around right now

Posted by: Doctor Blind 11th October 2014, 12:13 PM

Lots of benefits from Jools Holland last night, the bestest of which is quite clearly:

65. Ben Howard - End of the Affair

the video in your signature won't play

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 11th October 2014, 12:57 PM

I just looked at the last kworb update and shake it off is 2nd because of the two versions. Taylor is getting a big boost from Graham Norton by the looks of it. She should be 2nd officially on iTunes soon

Posted by: { bré } 11th October 2014, 01:26 PM

46.

chris152 getting that IMPACT.

Posted by: ▬Mart!n▬ 11th October 2014, 02:08 PM

Hope that doesn't chart top 40 sodding credit

Posted by: mr_aly 11th October 2014, 02:29 PM

Myleene Klass for belated solo hit.

(Ish)

Posted by: James1987 11th October 2014, 03:41 PM

I wish everyone wouldn't get my hopes up by predicting a number 2 for 1D next week...Meghan probably won't do 100k this week and I can't see her doing more than 70-75k next week and given that Nicki Minaj was number one on the first update I'm going to predict it will be a close one for sałes

Never thought I'd say this but if Watermat can't be number one next week please can Meghan get a third, I'll even buy a copy if it holds off SMG!!!

Posted by: mr_aly 11th October 2014, 03:42 PM

Or the best case scenario, Charli XCX to storm to number one!

Realistically though, seeing its current pre-order position I should probably just give up hope on this now.

Posted by: girl_from_oz 11th October 2014, 04:23 PM

And that is without even performing, so can only imagine the boost she'll get from xfactor tomorrow night

Posted by: SevenSeize 11th October 2014, 04:25 PM

tonight's releases:

86. Watermat - Bullit
101. One Direction - Steal My Girl
130. The Vamps - Oh Cecilia (Breaking My Heart) [feat. Shawn Mendes]
131. Eminem - Guts Over Fear (feat. Sia)
134. Wilkinson - Dirty Love (feat. Talay Riley)
135. Krishane - Drunk and Incapable (feat. Melissa Steel)
228. Charli XCX - Break the Rules
465. The Vamps - Oh Cecilia (Breaking My Heart) [YouTube Stars Version]
1419. Nicole Scherzinger - On the Rocks

looking at 7 NEs in the top 20 then! I certainly wouldn't rule out 'Steal My Girl' getting to #1, could be close though (maybe Taylor could even sneak it with her XF performance? intriguing~). The Vamps should safely make the top 5, with Eminem and Watermat making the top 10. The decision to push 'Break the Rules' forward a week remains confusing (unless they've got something or other planned?). I'd assume 'On the Rocks' would reach the top 40 on Nicole's name/fanbase alone, but maybe even that seems ambitious?

Posted by: *Tim 11th October 2014, 04:35 PM

Wicked Games has been pushed back? Well more pre-orders I guess.

I'm very excited to see how Watermät does next week

Posted by: Dircadirca 11th October 2014, 04:38 PM

Happy back in the top 40

Posted by: Rob! 11th October 2014, 04:40 PM

Ultraviolence will be over the moon to know that QUEEN Taylor is back at 2

amazing longevity for it, definitely repeating WANGBT's length of time in the top 10!

Posted by: PaulM1983 11th October 2014, 04:41 PM

Next week could go either way really. All About That Bass is likely to have a good week, due to a certain Saturday night show, and Taylor should get a massive boost too. Shake It Off's consistency is remarkable to me. Mainly because I think it's one of the most vile songs I've heard this year. It's just dreadful garbage.

On another note, I'm finding it quite amusing that Idina is sitting pretty at number 41 with 5 dark green updates in a row. If Let It Go is played or performed on X Factor in the next few weeks, I can see it being the start of another marathon run in the top 40. Roll on "Movies Week"!!

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 11th October 2014, 04:44 PM

YES YES YES

And Idina is nearly back top 40 as well


Fixed

Posted by: *Tim 11th October 2014, 04:49 PM

Both Happy and Let It Go back in the top 40?!

What kind off horrible nightmare scenario?

Posted by: ►▲N 11th October 2014, 04:52 PM

Happy will climb even higher when it gets performed on X Factor tonight! And if that's not good enough, it'll get another boost from the man himself appearing on the show tomorrow

Let It Go can piss off though

Posted by: James1987 11th October 2014, 04:54 PM

It's horrific but Happy being performed on X Factor tonight will keep it in the chart for a while yet

Posted by: James1987 11th October 2014, 04:57 PM

Looks like next weeks top 10 should see a bit of a clear out, I reckon Watermat, Eminem, and the other 2 boy bands should all make debuts in the top 5/10!

Bullit for number one (wont happen but I can dream )

Posted by: GTH 11th October 2014, 05:04 PM

A performance was inevitable this year sadly so I would rather they got it out of the way week 1.

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 11th October 2014, 06:02 PM

40. IDINA MENZEL- LET IT GO

Happy into 41

Posted by: ▲Rob▲ 11th October 2014, 06:05 PM

Toxic coming for the shock #1!

Posted by: Regina 11th October 2014, 06:42 PM

Can Shake It Off please just DIE? Taylor used to be so good, with decent songs, now she is just another faceless pop star with dire songs.

Posted by: ►▲N 11th October 2014, 06:52 PM

With Taylor performing on X Factor tomorrow it won't go away anytime soon.

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 11th October 2014, 06:54 PM

10. Blame it on me
11. God Only Knows

I'm really surprised God Only Knows is out of the top 10- hopefully it starts climbing again cause I really like it

Posted by: sasha2 11th October 2014, 07:00 PM

I think Nick Grimshaw later hinted that Harry had been dared to say it.

Posted by: ▲Rob▲ 11th October 2014, 07:44 PM

TXF songs are showing up on the iTunes chart.

Posted by: JosephStyles 11th October 2014, 07:50 PM

199. Paul Akister - Ghost (X Factor Performance)
242. Jack Walton - Only Girl In the World (X Factor Performance)
281. Jay James - Changing (X Factor Performance)
323. Overload Generation - I Kissed a Girl (X Factor Performance)
489. Lola Saunders - Stay With Me (X Factor Performance)
643. Stephanie Nala - Everything I Own (X Factor Performance)

Jack Walton performed most recently out of all of these, so to see him so high already is fantastic

Posted by: *Tim 11th October 2014, 07:53 PM

Oh so they finally decided to release them like The Voice has been doing?

Posted by: JosephStyles 11th October 2014, 08:05 PM

They've been releasing them from series 7 onwards! Although until this year, they had just been live recordings, this year they have studio versions

Posted by: ►▲N 11th October 2014, 08:05 PM

Are they chart eligible this year?

Posted by: JosephStyles 11th October 2014, 08:07 PM

Nope, they shouldn't even be on the iTunes chart

Posted by: fchd 11th October 2014, 08:14 PM

Why not? If they're selling the most, they should be in the chart.

Posted by: JosephStyles 11th October 2014, 08:16 PM

It's to protect the "integrity" of the contest, ie. not totally spoil the results so there is some suspense come results time. Fair enough if you ask me.

Posted by: *Tim 11th October 2014, 08:18 PM

Well not really imo, appearing ong the iTunes chart means exposure for said act and the show and we all know a good selling song doesn't mean votes will stream in

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 11th October 2014, 08:28 PM

Jack Walton is now 148

I hope Lauren, Blonde Electra and Chloe are doing well on iTunes

Posted by: JosephStyles 11th October 2014, 08:28 PM

131. Jack Walton - Only Girl In the World (X Factor Performance) [and #1430]
153. Paul Akister - Ghost (X Factor Performance)
169. Lauren Platt - Happy / Teardrop Mashup (X Factor Performance)
180. Jay James - Changing (X Factor Performance)
235. Stereo Kicks - Roar (X Factor Performance)
238. Chloe Jasmine - Toxic (X Factor Performance)
242. Overload Generation - I Kissed a Girl (X Factor Performance)
352. Stephanie Nala - Everything I Own (X Factor Performance)
358. Lola Saunders - Stay With Me (X Factor Performance)
1030. Andrea Faustini - Earth Song (X Factor Performance) - not even performed yet
1431. Only The Young - Jailhouse Rock / Twist N' Shout Medley (X Factor Performance) - as above

They all have two versions because of a compilation album for £4.99 containing all 16 performances, plus their individual singles.
