Doesn't look like Justin will be much competition. Scissor Sisters may be but I think their album sales will stunt their single sales soon.

Really hope Scissor Sisters dont overtake it
HDL sold around 10k approx last week taking her to YTD 423,360 :cheer: SS are doing well too shifting over 30k again and are at 217,251 shoving shayne out of the top10 :cheer:

I think the album is doing quite well actually. It's come off one big hit which wasn't promoted and has still sold more than Nelly Furtado who has had two heavily pomoted smashes (although I think Nelly will overtake soon). Anyway, a lot of people have said the album hasn't sold very well but I think it's pretty respectable :D

most definately :D her album sales are solid, i can't believe its sold more than nelly :o nelly has done so much promo here and shakira did virtually nothing plus nelly's album has been selling at a cheaper price in hmv than shakira for a few week when shakira was over £10, nelly's album is on sale £7.99 so is pink's £7.99 but shakira is at £8.99 no doubt nelly will overtake

 

now that i look at the YTD sales SS won't catch her, she is stretching making it hard for the competition to get near her the only future contender to take her on will be the xfactor winner or possibly justin 'my love' which i think will be a next monster here and worldwide but buyers may go for the album instead of the single so it could fizzle :P

I think SS may overtake her, the album doesnt seem to have hurt its sales too much.

 

I dont regard OF2 as a low selling album here anymore. i mean sure, it was when it was first released, but 240K is really respectible, and considering it isnt a commercial album, and its selling more than Loose which was heavily promoted shows that the UK people still havge room in their heart for shaki ^_^

I think SS may overtake her, the album doesnt seem to have hurt its sales too much.

 

they are really going for it!! i don't want to alarm everyone but SS have a YTD total of 248,664 so far :o thats scary :cry:but well done to them, mighty like shakira :cheer: they shifted 27k this week, will they catch miss colombia? let see in weeks to come it will take them weeks :lol: like about 7 or 8 they have to slow down sooner or later ^_^

 

shakira may have shifted 8k this week so YTD around 432,000 approx, every k will matter now until she drops out of the top75 in 18 weeks time :lol:

 

the YTD single chart updated on 10th october

uh oh SS are storming it but look at the difference around 200k :lol: its too much for them, also the new Take That track is the next big song to challenge shakira think of all the mothers that will buy it :wacko: can she hold them both off? time is the teller :rolleyes:

theres quite a lot of big songs out in the next few months, since its the Xmas rush, Im hoping that the rush will also help album sales as will Illegal

 

more news

 

46 Oral Fixation Vol 2 - Shakira 245,000

 

so close to platinum!

true xmas sales are the biggest of the year so some upcoming singles could be big sellers but there is a lot of competition many acts want to cash in but its going to take alot to overtake HDL, the only huge song to come after HDL is Scissor Sisters they have been shifting big steady sales for 7 weeks but still haven't cleared 300k yet, take that could do that in 3 or 4 weeks the xfactor winner in 1 or 2 weeks :rolleyes:

 

HDL sold around 8k this week taking her to 442,910 approx :thumbup:

WW won't be beaten but HDL sold around 5-6k this week taking her to 449,000 approx her main competition scissor sisters are at 282,653

I think she's safe for now then :lol: SS seem to be slowing down.

 

the album stays at #49 in the album chart for 2 weeks in a row now! :D

Thanks to Andy for doing a top 200 this week of the YTD

9 8 Notorious BIG Nasty girl 220600

10 10 Lily Allen Smile 219050

 

Scissor Sisters have a long way to go yet so I don't think they'll be a threat anymore. I reckon the X factor winner probably has the best chance of knocking her down a place, although, judging by this years contestants, I'm not convinced one of them will sell more that 500k by the end of the year.

 

Another interesting tid bit:

 

179 Shakira Don’t bother 29500

Oral Fixation is dropping but hopefully Illegal will send it top 40.
