December 23, 201015 yr Eeek, have McFly dropped back down then? Still hoping they can climb from #24. They have climbed in Itunes.
December 23, 201015 yr The battle at 40 for official chart must be close as it keeps changing. Thanks for taking your time out for this Mikey.
December 23, 201015 yr That should be the last of the mids from MW till the first week of Jan. Unless Radio 1 come up with something next Wednesday, of course. I have a revised estimate for Matt Cardle's 2nd week sales... We know he sold 120k to end of Tuesday - i Would estimate 30-35k daily for Wed thru Fri, then 20k Saturday (no physical sales). Say 235-245k for the week. Working on 240k, plus the 440k he already has, that would give him 680k. I estimate Em/Ri will add 18k minimum to their current 822k, so Matt would need at least 160k to be YTD #1. However if his 3rd week sales fell at the same rate as week 1-2, he'd end up with 130k for week 3 - some way short.

I tend to agree - although Matt has sold 40k a day since Sunday and I would imagine today will be the biggest day on the high street so I would imagine he will sell more than your estimated 30-35k - maybe around 40-50k today ?

I allowed for the fact that his download sales are trailing off quite fast. FYI, 230k should see him 3rd YTD on Sunday, but would need 285k for 2nd. Edited December 23, 201015 yr by vidcapper
December 23, 201015 yr I allowed for the fact that his download sales are trailing off quite fast. FYI, 230k should see him 3rd YTD on Sunday, but would need 285k for 2nd. True, although I see on the iTunes thread someone has posted that his lead is increasing.
December 23, 201015 yr Annie Lennox doing quite well in the album chart, i didnt think the album would do well and it now stands a good chance of having total sales of 200,000.
December 23, 201015 yr Woo, Jessie J definetly going to get a new chart peak then! :D Hope it manages to go Top 20 by Sunday.
December 23, 201015 yr True, although I see on the iTunes thread someone has posted that his lead is increasing. That doesn't mean his *sales* are, though - the pop bars are a relative measure, not an absolute one : e.g. if one day he sold 30k, and the #2 20k (1.5-1), then the next day 24k to 15k (1.6-1), it'd *look like* his sales were going up, whereas in fact they'd have dropped by 20%...

December 23, 201015 yr Hopefully, then she should hopefully become ineligible for the Sound of 2011! :D The Sound of 2011 shortlist has already been announced and she's on it.

I have a feeling he will have sold a LOT today. There were so just many people shopping! :o Edited December 23, 201015 yr by Eric_Blob
December 23, 201015 yr A big well done for Jessie J... I hate the song but I like her personality and love everything else I've heard from her but this, so I can begrudgingly be pleased for her for this single. Edited December 23, 201015 yr by Silver Rocket
