October 22, 201015 yr I wonder if there is a chance that Bruno Mars could hold on for another week.Rhianna at No 1 on Irish itunes with Cheryl at 3.Poor Joe somebody download his single, Syco have started their PR spin. Joe McElderry is on course to be the most successful male X Factor winner, according to music retailers. The singer's debut album Wide Awake is expected to outsell previous male winners of the show based on pre-orders of the record. Amazon reports that pre-orders for the LP are 49% higher than his nearest competitor, Shayne Ward's self-titled debut from 2006. They are are also 232% higher than Leon Jackson's 2008 album Right Now and 407% more than Steve Brookstein's Heart and Soul in 2005.

As you say that is spin trying to drum up interest. Everyone knows Amazon sales count for very little.
October 22, 201015 yr These figures quoted for Joe must be, as said "hype" "spin" call it what you like,but do they believe that he will sell more than Shayne Ward's first weeks total of 201000+ I would be very surprised, but good luck to him if he does.
October 22, 201015 yr Pisses me off that Katy is #6 <_< :angry: She should be higher, 'Firework' has such a great meaning unlike those other fluff songs sang by future one hit wonders.
October 22, 201015 yr Im surprised Firework isnt top 5- it will probably sneak it by sunday Nelly will definitely push Diana down a place by sunday- but hopefully she wont fall too much- its not holding up too bad atm
October 22, 201015 yr Katy will probably end up at #5, but I can't see her going any higher considering most of the others have multiple versions, physicals etc. Not sure who she'll push out though - Mike Posner or Duck Sauce? Cee Lo seems unlikely as he's still quite high combined on iTunes, I think even higher than Mike Posner unless he has other versions too. I'd love if The Wanted tumbled all the way out of the top 5 but that's not going to happen - though hopefully they'll at least fall to #3.
