Bull$h!t. They wouldn't release an album by an XF act outside XF season. They didn't even do that with Shayne and it was widely assumed Syco had turned their backs on him.

 

They will this time - album being driven by the American side J Records as they were unhappy with Syco's handling of Echo.

Read the above post. NO X FACTOR AT ALL 2011 it is rumoured due to the launch ox american x factor.

And i think its fine for Leona Lewis to release an album without x factor, its leona lewis after all, an established, worldwide artist.

It will be early 2011 for a single, and a summer release for the album. ^_^

You have seen right.

 

'She's just going to flop'. She's Leona Lewis, she's obviously going to do well, snm.

Please Don't Let Me Go has sold decent sales for no.1. But, considering the first week is almost 1/3 of those sales, then it's quite poor. :lol:

Any chance of widening the scope slightly and adding in sales from Popstars, Pop Idol etc?

 

I belive Will Young would then be number 1?

Part of me would like to, but then once you start adding them, you'll have to start adding all the other reality contestants including those from Big Brother and I'm A Celeb.

 

If people want to AND there's enough sales know for the majority of all the acts (and not just wide estimates) then i suppose, but i've got a feeling it would start to look untidy.

I think that Once could make it to 20 by 2011 possibly (Club Is Alive's sales are dead now, not sure if they are even in the top.200 right now

^ The Club is Alive is currently #143 so technically not true - Once is currently #580

Updated

Will be very interested to see Leona's sales in the UK without X Factor promo. Both Spirit & Echo were heavily promoted on the show. Echo was rarely in the top 40 in 2010 once the show was over, despite her Arena tour.

 

would be nice to see a list from them of albums.

 

I guess:

 

1. Leona - Spirit

2. JLS - JLS

3. Alexandra Burke - Overcome

4. Leona - Echo

 

Adding other talent show contestants & the top 10 UK sales would most likely be, although G4 could possibly figure in there. Order will be slightly different with international sales but they are more difficult to verify & only really Leona has promoted extensively abroad.

 

1. Leona Spirit

2. Will Young Friday's Child

3. JLS JLS

4. Will Young Keep On

5. Will Young From Now On.

6. Alexandra Burke Overcome

7. Leona Spirit

8. Shayne Ward debut

9. Gareth Gates debut

10. Will Young The Hits
