the other for 27th August is Emeli Sande - Heaven, was in the top 30 on the iTunes Albums on pre-orders and its getting a lot of airplay on both radio and TV

David Guetta

Wretch 32

Olly Murs feat. Rizzle Kicks

Leona Lewis

One Direction

Bruno Mars with Marry You

 

I think Moves Like Jagger might surprise aswell, it's doing well WW.

Nero

David Guetta

Olly Murs

Example

Example (Pixie could do it though)

One Direction :(

Week 1 = JLS

Week 2 = David Guetta

Week 3 = Calvin Harris

Week 4 = Example

Week 5 = Leona Lewis

Week 6 = One Direction

 

I'm really unsure about all of these weeks though - obviously something else could spring up. As for 'week 1' - I really hope Nero can get #1, but would rather Guetta over JLS. It's a shame to think there is likely to be a string of six one-weekers though, much like last year.

 

As for the 4th September battle, it's between Pixie Lott and Leona really, although Example and Ed Sheeran from the week before equate to serious threats.

I think:

 

David Guetta

Emeli Sande

Olly Murs

Ed Sheeran

Pixie Lott

One Direction

It looks like 'Other' may end up being correct for this week and maybe next week too, if 'Jar Of Hearts' continues to climb at the rate it's climbing :o Who'da thunk

 

And of course there's another possibilty for 'Other' next week as Emeli Sandé is outdoing Wretch 32 on iTunes pre-orders - so who knows, maybe she could shock and claim #1?

So it looks like Nero have it in the bag for this week :D

 

And based on iTunes it looks like Maroon 5 could be #1 next week. Blegh. I'm hoping its early success is just because it has loads of pre-orders and it doesn't get really high 'actual' sales... :(

Maroon 5 getting #1 would be a MASSIVE shock, but I can see it slowing down before it reaches the t10 (then again, I also said that Nero getting No.1 would be a shock, yet look where we are!)

Wretch 32 still seems the most likely of the new entries, it'll probably be close between him and Nero (since their album's out tomorrow), but I think he'll get there.

Now it looks like:

Nero

Maroon 5/Xtina, Christina Perri, Emeli Sande and Wretch32 all look likely - best chart battle of the year so far? :o

Example (I can't see Pixie doing it now, it'll be him or Ed Sheeran with The Sats at 3 and Pixie at 4.)

Why do you mention Perri and not Nero? I doubt either will contend but Nero are still over 15% ahead and even further combined.

 

By the way, you missed out the Olly/Calvin week :kink:

 

What has made you change your mind about Pixie (if you ever thought it'd be #1 in the first place)? :o I've seen the video so many times, I can't see it not getting to #1! I've also been seeing and hearing Stay Awake far more than You Need Me, I Don't Need You so hopefully Example should win that chart battle :D

Looking at iTunes right now, it seems I've already been proven wrong :o :lol:

And looking at iTunes now, they're not going to be #1 anyway as Wretch has overtaken them :P
