In the UK it must be Cheryl. Didn't she take like 15 mins to make it to the top?

Surely it was Leona or even Alexandra last year in the UK? :P

Alexandra took ages despite have record online sales(at the time). Wasn't until like 8am if I recall correctly.

Very interesting update!

 

UGH at Rage Against The Machine, lol, impressive though.

Joe enters at 19.

Because iTunes is known to freeze from time to time, it's impossible to definitively say which artist got to the top in the quickest time.

 

 

Knew 3oh!3 would do well, its exactly the type of song that would.

 

3 words doing well too :yahoo:

I'd rather 3OH!3/Katy get #01 over Joe and Rage, at least it'd be getting there just for being an amazing song. It's the highest entry without X Factor exposure as well, glad it's doing so well.

It is so nice to see Rage Against The Machine at #1! Never thought people would actually bother to download them!

Good grief :lol:

I thought Joe entered at #35

He did, but he's moving up the chart rapidly.

I wish is good, shame radio didnt back it.

 

But what a week to release, itunes is just crazy right now. Theres too many :o's to put. I mean what the hell with miley cyrus so high!

 

And oasis at 78! Taking in mind they will all continue to climb before they fall yet.
