Yes. I think there will be a lot of people (me included) that will be buying all three tracks in one go, so I do think that they will all make up the Top 3. It will be the more casual fans that make the difference between 1,2&3. I am still thinking:

 

1. Pixie

2. Leona

3. Sats

I get that you want Maroon 5 to be #1 but why do you always say you want that because it'd be more 'different' or 'interesting'? Do you actually like the song or what? :unsure:

 

Sorry, I know I go overboard with this but I don't loon very often. It's more the fact that it would be a no.1 no one saw coming until it actually charted. this thread has been around for ages because people already have it set in stone that one of these acts will be no.1, like they also assumed either Example or Ed Sheeran would get it this week. That bores me more than any of the songs do.

 

Oh yes, and I think the song is AMAZING too. But AMAZING songs rarely get no.1 these days.

 

but forget Maroon 5, I forgot Snow Patrol are releasing next week so that can go to no.1 instead :P

Pixie has just been confirmed for Red or Black on Sunday night.

 

Its gone from duece to advantage Pixie.

 

Mind you, for anyone that's seen "All about Tonight" performed live, I'm not actually sure it is an advantage.

 

Pixie and Leona are both performing on Red & Black. Pixie's promised something special so expect a massive performance. I will be buying All About Tonight & All Fired Up. I think it will go like this

 

01. Pixie Lott - All About Tonight

02. The Saturdays - All Fired Up.

03. Example - Stay Awake

04. Leona Lewis - Collide.

Edited August 31, 201113 yr by lee wallace

Regarding everyone claiming Leona's youtube views as over 2,000,000 can we remember Collide is available to view in the Usa unlike All About Tonight & All Fired Up. Saturdays have already performed on This Morning & Tonights The Night, I doubt any of them will be as effective as Red & Black though.

 

What day is Leona performing on Red & Black? Pixie has a good advantage as she's performing on a Sunday night, also expect Saturdays to start off immediately in the top 30 on iTunes as their pre-orders should be quite strong.

no one is suggesting all of the youtube views are from the UK... but Collide hasnt really impacted much in US (per the radio info that ive seen anyway), so i cant see that too high a percentage will be from there... i think the main thing the youtube views has shown is that there is interest in this video... and that interest has surged at the right time, i.e. just before the release... obviously we dont have the full stats, but considering the number of views and the rate at which views have increased, (IMO) its hard to believe that Leonas video hasnt gathered more interest in the UK than Pixies did :-)

 

i honestly think that week could go any way... its really hard to predict... the only prediction i would be confident about is that if leona doesnt go to number 1 she'll be branded a flop... she tends to get such a hard time from the 'chart analysts' out there! :-P

Yes, The Sats :angel:

 

That's who I was implying at. If any of the three miss the top five it is more likely to be them than either Pixie or Leona.

Its Red or Black not Red&Black.

 

Red&Black makes no sense.

I'd have thought fans of Pixie/Leona/The Saturdays are all the same. I have no intention of buying either of the three releases next week, although a live performance may change my decision. Of the three artists, I've only ever purchased one Lewis single [bL] and one Sats single [N] - due to its 59p reduction.

 

As for my opinion, I feel Pixie Lott or Leona Lewis are the only contenders for #1 - I've not even heard the Saturdays song, but the other two have huge fanbases and have succeeded in raking in #1 singles without the artist begging for sales (I recall the Saturdays doing a bit of begging for 'Missing You').

 

Maroon 5 and Example both remain contenders for #1 - with Example having the additional sales of the 'Playing in the Shadows' album.

I like how nobody can really call it & there are loads of different predictions flying around, I really, really dont know how it'll go. I think all 3 may be a new top 3 though, so possibly:

 

1. Pixie/Leona

2. Pixie/Leona

3. The Saturdays

 

But it will be close, and the fact that Pixie has had such great radio play compared to the other two, surely she'll have the best advantage. In terms of TV/Radio Leona is in the weakest position, but I'd predict it as a climber, as radio/tv i think will still be increasing as the weeks go on, but its a very competitive month, so really cant predict. :lol:

 

As a few of you guys have said already, quite a few people may be buying all three!

 

Could be a shock, maybe a different song will get to #1, or other songs may prevent the others from going top 3/top5, we will see.

Well with Red Or Black in mind:

1. Pixie

2. Leona

3. Maroon 5/Xtina

4. Example

5. The Saturdays/Ed Sheeran

 

I really think AFU might miss top 5 :( Example will be frontloaded and will fall, but not far enough to ensure a place for AFU, MLJ is increasing in airplay and will likely overtake Example on iTunes, even if not officially :(

I'm starting to think Leona could even be as low as #7 or #8 now.

I think Leona will be number one but Pixie and Sats may just scrape the bottom of the top 10.

I doubt Leona will be number one and heavily doubt Pixie will scrape the top 10.

Pixie is an absolute lock for #1, that is certain.

you serious? frankly I'd be shocked if Pixie debuted outside the top 2!

It's The Saturdays I'm thinking could miss top 5 - with Leona/Pixie both having Red Or Black slots they'll get a boost and will both debut higher. Pixie was a cert for number 1 anyway and now she has ROB it'll only increase sales (and indeed make the inevitable 2nd week drop even worse). Plus Leona gets the (much needed) boost which will probably see her top 3, especially with Example dropping. Maroon 5 could beat her to number 2 however.

Pixie is an absolute lock for #1, that is certain.

How is Pixie such a certainty, what have I missed ?

It's EVERYWHERE, literally inescapable. There's no way she is missing #1.

15 on airplay. 26 on tvplay. Hardly everywhere
