January 9, 201114 yr The top downloads is outdated, Radio 1 ran a programme which had sales right up to midnight on 31 Dec 2010. Love The Way You Lie has overtaken Bad Romance, Bruno Mars is #9, La Roux has dropped out of the top 10. Top 100 here: http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?s...t&p=3377281 Edited January 9, 201114 yr by ★BlindFaithBray★
January 9, 201114 yr Author The Calendar also has the Top 10 Best Selling Singles - but that never changes. Plus the Top 10 DVD's, (all types), but I did not think that List belonged here. Plus the Top 10 Christmas Period Selling Singles in the UK - but, I was not sure if anyone would be interested in that one. (It is the Top Sellers DURING Christmas/New Year - which is not the same as a Top 10 Christmas Singles - as in Hits that have a 'Theme' of Christmas in them. Although several of the Top 10 Christmas period Hits are of that type). If anyone would like me to add the other 3 Lists - or some of them - just let me know.

Add in that last one, it sounds interesting. The first one we all already know and if not it's easy to find with a quick Google. That's a bit of a vague description on the last list but post it anyway
