What have been the biggest fall in sales/position for an artist from their midweek position to the official charts? It just seems that the midweek is a good indication of where songs are roughly going to chart, so it would be interesting to hear of any songs that plummeted a huge amount of positions come Sunday.

It's probably not one of the biggest, but Hurts falling from 30 on Wednesday to 50 on Sunday with Better Than Love was quite gutting.

I'll count big natural falls that I remember

 

Hard-Fi - Hard To Beat (from #4 to #9)

Shayne Ward - Gotta Be Somebody (from #4 to #12)

 

I'll add to this list later, although loads of fanbase and rock/indie bands having big tumbles throughout the week didn't used to be uncommon.

George Michael - Freeek! (from #2 to #7)

Paul Weller - Here's The Good News (from #9 to #21) [he probably has some others with massive falls, too]

 

This is pretty hard though as I don't usually remember midweek positions :o

A number of the Ash A - Z series of singles were in the lower part of the top 40 at the start of the week but didn't make the top 75 on the Sunday.
How about a biggest changes? Would be interesting to see the climbs too

 

Well Shout For England/Dizzee Rascal/James Corden - Shout went from 0 sales on Tuesday mids to #1 on over 100k sales on Sunday :P But that was a midweek release so I guess it doesn't count
