That's a wise move for JLS, it maximises the chances of them getting a 5th #1.

 

They just need to not screw it up (like The Saturdays did)

 

The highest album track will probably be the Jay Sean track I guess

 

 

I think Well, Well, Well should have been a 2nd single. Perhaps people would have reacted better to Endlessly given that its what people are used to from her. I'm actually loving WWW but I didn't at first listen and I can definitely see how its an acquired taste. I hope the album still sells Ok although it was obvious since the last album that it won't repeat Rockferry's success.

 

"Well Well Well" follows the same trend of Texas' "Carnival Girl" & Madonna's "American Life", risky, polarising singles that will ultimately affect the outcome of its parent album... in Duffy's case, the second single will have to be a scorcher for the album to be successful again.

Olly's XF performance was great, he should rise quite a bit now. Top 5 on Sunday officially I think!

I'd like Ellie to be #1.

 

Duffy flopping :(

 

The title of the X-Factor single has gone from "Heroes (X Factor Performance) to "Heroes (Charity Single)".

 

Guess they want to make sure as many ppl as possible buy it :lol:

 

 

Well, if there's a Jay Sean track on the album, that would probably chart the highest aswell. I also find that title tracks and the lead tracks get cherry-picked a lot, as well as songs that have been leaked onto the Internet and gone viral (e.g. Ridin' Solo) and songs with titles that just attract attention (e.g. Gonhorrhea), high-profile collabs (e.g. LTWYL, Telephone), songs that have been big in other countries beforehand (e.g. Airplanes, Poker Face), songs that have been confirmed to be future singles (e.g. Blah Blah Blah) and songs that were promotional singles (e.g. Wait Your Turn).

Brilliant, definitely top 10 at the very least.

 

Anything with a guest artist seems to do well too.

Hadn't heard Ollys song before now, actually like it alot, which has surprised me. Great performance aswell, hope he goes top 3 at least

Oh wow, the new low. -_-

 

They co-wrote the song with Jay Sean. He's not actually on the song

 

But Eyes Wide Shut is being used in the album advert too

, so I think that will climb the highest

Anything with a guest artist seems to do well too.

 

Yeah, they seem to do the best, like the Tinie/Kelly Rowland collab and the Pixie/Jason Derulo collab recently went top 40 on iTunes. And of course there's the famous Eminem/Rihanna collab which got to #2 on iTunes in 2 days (I think?). I doubt anything will be able to beat that for years.

 

And, I forgot the Nelly/Keri Hilson collab, which is currently in the top 40 on iTunes (or was last time I checked). Silly me. :lol:

Good point - I need to learn to read Wikipedia correctly :lol:

Don't worry. I thought he was actually on the song at first too :lol:

Think Olly will get as high as Top 3 on sunday & on first hearing of the Xfactor single i actually think its better than i thought it would be so will probably hit the top slot no problem.

Looks like iTunes has reverted again :lol:

 

I honestly don't think it's been accurate at all day today. The new releases have been way too low. Hopefully it'll be sorted it when it comes back.

X Factor removed from itunes, new version #30

Olly Murs #12

Jessie J was top 40... now #74? Seriously, what on earth is iTunes on today?

iTunes is sorted now - X Factor #1! :o

 

Also Olly is #8.
