We all make mistakes Bray! Except me :angel:

HA!

 

The people I quoted said that *after* it was released though :P The last one in particular was a direct response to me saying I think Nero could still climb to #1.

 

And to be fair, while I was clearly wrong with my prediction, it's not likely to have sales *much* higher than Guilt's first week (31,152). So that part of my prediction still sort of stands. :kink:

 

Also, I quote myself the day before Promises was released:

So I did come to that consensus before it was released :magic: Therefore I win.

What you say first is the only thing that counts.

Strange there is no One Direction now... I thought with the premier of the song they would have been re-boosted into the top 5... Emeli has a huge hit on her hands :o

Since when?

Big pre-orders don't always translate into big sales :P They are a good indicator but not a sure thing

 

And are One Direction out of the top 200 completely? :mellow:

Edited August 10, 201113 yr by Bré

Emeli could be number 1 then? :o

Wil Young's single Jealousy was highon pre-orders last week - wonder where he's disappeared too?

Emeli could be number 1 then? :o

 

Just like Rumer was :D :kink:

Yep. I've checked and checked but they are out of the top 200.

 

Emeli could be number 1 then? :o

Yes. All signs are pointing that way for her :D It's a grower! (Although now she's back to #19 and Olly is up one to #17...)

Christina has been playlisted now by Radio 1 (straight to B - typical) so she could start increasing again next week. :D

 

Yep. I've checked and checked but they are out of the top 200.

 

How bizarre that #2 on iTunes Albums could fall out of the top 200 THAT quickly :wacko: Is it actually still available for pre-order?

Edited August 10, 201113 yr by Bré

Yep, it's still available.

Just like Rumer was :D :kink:

Ah good point actually, I still have a tiny feeling inside Emeli will 'do a Yasmin' :(

Emeli could be number 1 then? :o

She's started to get support by Heart/Capital and the like so I think it's a possibility - definetly Top 5 though, I thought it'd be a flop like Yasmin at first!

Ah good point actually, I still have a tiny feeling inside Emeli will 'do a Yasmin' :(

 

I think she'll go top 2 along with Wretch but no idea about the order, either could be #1.

I think Wretch will stall again. I think Emeli will be the winner of the new releases that week.

I've barely heard Wretch's song and it really isn't that commercial, I doubt it'll do that good. Maybe just similar to what 'Unorthodox' done actually.

I think she'll go top 2 along with Wretch but no idea about the order, either could be #1.

I'd much rather have Emeli number 1, I like Don't Go but it's got nothing on Traktor or Unorthodox for me.

1D's isn't a EP, So maybe itunes messed up by adding it on the album? Cause JLS's wasn't on the pre orders! That's the only reason i can think of cause one minute it's #2 the next it's not even top 200 :\

26. Nicole - wet

 

I agree must be some sort of itunes error I doubt it would go from being 2 one day to out of the top 200 completely - especially as its just had its radio debut today

I don't see Emeli or Wretch 32 topping the chart next week. 'Heaven' sounds like a T20 hit, I reckon it'll debut at #14. As for Wretch, a third T5 is set to come upon him - although I see it debuting at #3 - meaning his discography goes 5-2-3 (but I may be wrong about this). Obviously an EP for both will help boost sales - especially the DJ Fresh remix of 'Don't Go' which is just incredible.

Oh, is it just two tracks? In that case yeah, it was just an error it was showing up in the first place.
