That was crazy seeing Will Young ahead of Olly just a minute ago, I'll never expected that, seems Olly is ahead now. Calvin Harris should have released last week.

It's great Will is doing so well though Changes raced up the iTunes chart to no 4 and then dropped quickly. Hopefully the album will be huge though.

Sorry, I didn't make myself that clear, I meant singles chart wise. He hasn't had a major hit (Changes came and went very quickly despite the #10 peak...) since 2006.

True, he is more of an album act. But with the fact he has a big fanbase and that's the lead single with the added he has actually put effort in promoting it I wasn't expecting anthing less than T20 tbh. But who knows... I think his album will do quite well too, with the iTV1 special and everything.

 

It would be funny if there was an all new top 3 this week (Wretch, Maroon, Emeli) AND next week (Olly, Will, Calvin) :lol: Could it possibly happen? Will is doing better than expected

Noel up to 65 and 198, going well! :D

Olly at #5 now

Noel up to 65 and 198, going well! :D

Now 54 and 138

Go Will, Olly and Calvin!!!!!

 

Disappointed that (w)Retch 22 will be #1 this week ahead of Emeli and Maroon5/Christina :(

 

 

Noel going well, with the physicals he should make top 20. Any sign of Evanescence?

I wonder how Will and Noel are going to be. I have less doubts about Calvin and Olly, as they've had quite a lot of media support, while in Will's and Noel's case it's more obvious that now it's most likely a fanbase buying.

If the new single is What You Want (I've never heard of it before) it's at #287.

Will could suffer from having the album released tomorrow. Noel will be frontloaded but if he climbs into the iTunes top 20 today or tomorrow he could be top 10 in Tuesday's mids, probably won't hold it but the album sales are what he's more concerned about I guess.

It is, and that's a worryingly slow start even despite the lack of exposure.

Hope Calvin can somehow manage to get Number 1 this week. The different versions will help, and he's number 1 on albums too. Glad to see Noel doing well, even though the songs a copy of The Importance of Being Idle I really like it :wub:

I think Calvin will take off a little bit later. And 'Bounce' had quite a good longevity, so who knows what's going to happen to this one.

 

Also, the new release:

163. Close (Radio Edit) - Drumsound & Bassline Smith

237. Close (Original Mix) - Drumsound & Bassline Smith

 

Great poppy drum and bass song, hopefully a top-40 this week!

Aah, I'm really pleased Will Young's doing well with 'Jealousy'! :wub: It's by far one of my favourite singles of his, and he really deserves another big hit! Also, what I've heard of the album is very promising too, so hopefully he'll at least get the #1 album next week. :D

Olly Murs #4 + #251

Calvin Harris #10 + #115

Will Young #12

 

TEoG #32

Y&I #173 :huh:

 

IWG #169

To me, Jealousy is probably the best thing out this week. Olly's track is alright but I find Calvin's new one quite boring and same old same old. I'd rather the no.1 race was between Maroon 5 and Emeli but that's unlikely.

I havent even heard Olly's new song!

In reply to Lee, there's no photo of me and her, but I could always post a photo of her in her uniform and then an old photo of me in my old one haha

Olly #4

Britney I Wanna Go #169 - too late to chart top 100 now i think :nocheer:
