I can't see any of those coming close to Adele except possibly The Strokes. Adele's sales will surely benefit from Mother's Day.

The Robbie Williams one isn't a studio album is it? the only ones I can see challenging are the Strokes and maybe Nicole and Ronan but I doubt that

I doubt Nicole will be a #1 contender, I think she'll have an Alexis Jordan kind of impact on the chart.

I doubt Britney will do very well with her new album, so i cant see anyone knocking her off soon, no album coming up in the next few weeks will sell 100+ so for them to be #1 it will have to be when Adele starts selling less than 100,000 copies a week so could be a while..

I reckon she will be number 1 until her 11th week, then she will go back to number 1 after that. I only bought it last week, I am sure there will be many more sales.

I still have not got it yet :( How long until they tend to start the £5 sales on albums?

It'll be a long while till then, probably not for 2 years yet, you may have to double your budget to £10 if you want to buy it :lol:

Could Chris Brown knock her off?

 

He could possibly knock her out :lol:

:thumbup: This did make me laugh out loud.

Chris Brown has zero chance of being #1. Nicole should go low Top 5. Ronan will obviously sell alot in the lead up to Mother's Day but Adele appeals to the same market so she'll easily beat him. I even think she'll beat the Foos. If she stayed at #1 till Gaga I would be ecstatic!

So would I :w00t:

I am genuinely shocked that she's managed 7 weeks, I was expecting it to be 3/4 at the most, but wow!

 

Seriously thought albums from the likes of Chase & Status and Jessie J would manage to get the #1 spot.

 

Then there's the likes of Mumford & Sons not climbing to the number-one spot despite winning 'British Album of the Year' and now recently Elbow and soon-to-be The Vaccines have ended up at number 2.

 

Serious competition (surely) comes from Foo Fighters and The Strokes, Britney is doubtful, I can see her getting top 5 at best.

Wow, poll so far with 52 votes, 17 of you think more then 11 weeks, thats brilliant, hope so! :D

I've voted More - technically this could happen. Even if Adele does spend 11 consecutive weeks at #1, and there's still no certainty that Foo Fighters will get #1 (see Elbow, R.E.M.). Even if Foo Fighters did get to #1, Adele would end up returning to #1 eventually. If 'Set Fire To The Rain' is confirmed as the third single in mid-April, that will boost the album sales.

 

'21' looks set to become one of the UK's biggest selling albums of all time. I think this is what makes the whole thing so extraordinary considering the state of the UK album charts (sales wise) away from the #1 spot.

I think she can do more than 11 weeks (although maybe not consecutively).

 

It's incredible to see an album sell like this though! And with such consistency aswell! :o

Totally agree!

What, you don't think the new album by Colbie Caillat :wub: will finally depose her? :P
