Posted November 7, 200915 yr Chartjackers, for all those who don't know, is a project by internet peoples to put together a song using only internet people. The aim is to release it in aid of Children In Need and get to #1. How do people think it will do? It's released on Monday 9th. EQD_kP0O4AY Imo, as much as I want them to succeed, this'll be lucky to get Top 40 but I may be wrong. It's getting almost no promotion other than being followed by Switch on Radio 1 and the people behind it - although they have good intentions - don't seem to realise that you need about 10k sales to get Top 40 these days, and atm over 100k to top the chart.
November 7, 200915 yr Author People need to remember that this is put together by hundreds of internet people and watched by thousands more. I think it'd be silly to discount it altogether. Whether you've heard of it or not, thousands have and they will probably buy it. That's my take on it anyway. #1 is a silly aim, but I don't see a reason why it won't chart.
November 7, 200915 yr You never know, no one predicted Katie Melua getting to No1 a few years back. Katie Melua was being sold in Tesco
November 8, 200915 yr Such a shame it isn't being released physically, I'd have bought it had i lived in the UK.
November 8, 200915 yr I would love to see this at number 1 but It obviously wont. I think it could be top 10, lets not forget this will be shown on Children in need later in the week
November 8, 200915 yr Previous youtube related tracks were The Zimmers which featured Geriatric1927, My Generation went Top 30, most recently of course there was Esmee Denters who peaked at No.7 in August with Outta Here. Unlike The Zimmers effort (which was only vaguely youtube related thanks to 1 member of the group), chartjackers has a slightly younger appeal and may go higher. I'd say Top 20 at best.
November 8, 200915 yr Top40 as BBC are showing it. I count a totla of 80,000 youtube views which suggests it would flop otherwise.
November 13, 200915 yr Top 40, no higher, good sentiments like Richie says but dull song. You are nearly bang on :D , but I think it be lower come Sunday
