How much did 'Sound of the Underground' open with? :unsure:

She's actually selling about 6 times what Chipmunk is selling on Itunes.

 

Chipmunk last week sales were of 59k, so if we assumed he stays pretty much stable and sells 45k-50k this week again, and if Cheryl can maintain a 5to1 ratio (cause anyway she'll have stong physicals, remixes downloads, etc), she would have the 200k in the bag.

But that's a lot of "assuming" I guess, can't wait for Tuesday midweeks!

I think 213k is possible for her to beat this week.. with a bit of luck :)

poor Alphabeat, they dont have X Factor to boost their sales...

They really should be featured... Scandipop week please :kink:

Front page of the daily star - A pic of Cheryl performing and the headline "Cheryl steals the show". Front of the daily mail - Different pic of her performing "Cheryl has the Sex factor". Front of the Mirror - another pic of her performing - "Wow Factor! Cheryl's amazing solo debut". And the front of the Sun has a pic of Cheryl performing and Whitney's dress falling off - Headline "Cheryl shines but Houston has problems".

 

4 front pages, all positive and will remind people of her performance.. Sales boost?

what was good about cheryls performance is that she did what the press demanded and nailed it live, it sounded as good as the recorded track. she is no whitney vocally but she is as good as any popstar, great dancer good singer... and a huge number 1 this week!

She was miming to parts of it..........her voice is quite weak I thought.

I'm worried that Cobra Starship are not top ten yet! I may download it, even though I already have it...

I guess if they and Alphabeat/YSR aren't in by this time tomorrow they won't have much of a chance.

Is whitney still at #8?

I agree, certain parts sounded like she was miming.

WOW, the lead is very big now and another version of her in top 40...

Nice to see Whitney but I don't like this song.

WRONG top 42.. ;)

 

I'm shocked at the love for Cheryl's performance :mellow: I thought it was ridiculously weak, though the song itself is alright.

I just saw the Cheryl performance again and I Love IT! I don't know y only here nobody liked it.

 

P.S

 

Her album is leaked 1 hour ago... not good for her, Alex album only leaked 2 days before release...

Go and listen to it :)

 

P.S 2 - "3 Words" is such a touching song... I did not expected that.

While I expected Cheryl to beat Alex, I thought it'd be a really tight battle - but she's leading by well over 2-1! :cheer: :dance:
