Sunday Chart Predictions

Predicting the 21/09 to 27/09 chart

Following up their #1 hit with 'Nobody to Love', Sigma teamed up with Paloma Faith (who has had her most successful eras single-wise with two Top 10s under her belt) to produce this week's big number one contender, 'Changing'. Also new to the Top 10 should be Professor Green, who returns with his new lead single 'Lullaby' (with vocals by Tori Kelly) after initial lead single 'Are You Getting Enough' flopped and has since been scrapped from his upcoming third album. Other than that, it's a quiet week in the singles, other than George Ezra's 'Blame It On Me' continuing to climb and Hozier's 'Take Me to Church' potentially (and finally!) reaching the Top 40 following his Live Lounge performance.

 

It's another story in the album chart which is set to be one of the busiest of the year! Leading the new entries should be The Script's fourth album No Sound Without Silence at #1, however it seems Barbra Streisand's duets and THIRTY FOURTH studio album Partners will be a strong contender too. Aiming for Top 10 placings will be Catfish & The Bottlemen's The Balcony, Chris Brown's X, Counting Crows' Somewhere Under Wonderland, Motionless In White's Reincarnate, Slash's World On Fire, Train's Bulletproof Picasso and Vance Joy's Dream Your Life Away.

Can't wait to see Paloma get her first number one this week just hoping sales could just edge past 100k :)

Hope Sigma breaks 100k - first record in a while!

 

Hope Calvin & Taylors sales can keep up well. Calvin should pass 50k & Taylor another 40k!

Sigma are a duo for the record :P

Thanks, I did already know that but I just naturally put "his"! :P

Hope Sigma breaks 100k - first record in a while!

Hope so too, but looks worrying as sales at the top haven't been that great lately, it might just scrape through.

 

I'd say they should easily enough with the movement of the preorder & the impressive 60% Sunday evening lead!
I did not know Joe McElderry had something out, i welcome his name back in the charts. I will be hugely disappointed if the Script are not number 1 in the album chart. The Script and Sigma (maiinly for Paloma Faith) for big number 1's.

He features on the Kerry Ellis album, track is a cover of the The Time of my Life from Dirty Dancing

Great news in relation to Joe, it would be wonderful if he can get another top 40 credit to his name, everytime you think he has diseappered he pops back up again, he certainly is a tryer and refuses to give up.

We have Tues mids :D oooh nice sales for Sigma ft. Paloma over 50k :o and the top 4 albums are all new...

 

Update coming up

I wish people would stop referring to the artist as Paloma when talking about 'Changing'. It's Sigma, she's just the featured vocalist. As far as I'm concerned, it's not really her Number 1, I mean it's great that she's getting a Number 1 cos she definitely deserves one, but for me it feels like another Number 1 for Sigma rather than "Paloma's first Number 1". Although the good thing about it is that it will strengthen her profile and get more people talking about her :)

Big fallers for Ten Walls down to #19 ouch... and 5SoS down to #23

 

Let's hope Paolo Nutini can get a foothold of the top 40. Great to see Hozier inside the 40 now.
