I am speaking the truth. Simon Cowell always stamps his feet and gets away with it. On top of that, look at the unfair attention 1D have had over the other acts releasing. Makes me mad. It also stinks of shit as they have released a week, where there is NO competition.

 

I hope one of them took part in the London, Birmingham or Wolverhampton riots.....the press would chew them apart and their career can end.

Only 200k? :D At the rate they're going, One Direction could be heading for 300k. :o If they sell anywhere near 100k by the first set of midweeks then that'll be the big indicator that 'What Makes You Beautiful' is definitely going to be the fasted selling single of 2011 so far - I can only see The X Factor winners single most likely to beat that record. Don't even think Matt Cardle's new single will have such impressive first week sales.

 

One Direction are going to be bigger than Matt Cardle at least singles-wise (although WMYB will be their peak and their other singles in the next few years will, while still doing well, 'underperform' in comparison), but I think Matt may be a stronger album seller.

 

If WMYB is going to have sales this big without an XF performance, imagine what they'd be like if it did have one :o

 

It'll probably sell close to 300k this week a la Fight For This Love before the predictable huge slash in its second week to around 100k. Dappy probably won't be #1 in that case but I think WMYB will have reduced enough to be displaced by Sak Noel 2 weeks from now.

No you're not, you're speaking complete bullshit with no basis in fact. :)

It's all maniuplated. Granted the public is a bit thick (well they did elect the Tories), but it's all manipulation.

And what is your evidence for this?

The hype in the press, constant airplay on TV and radio, very tactical release dates - it all adds up.

Matt Cardle will probably get a live performance, the live shows will be in full swing (first or second) when he releases his single, but you can never tell with some of the live performances they can be a hit or a miss sometimes.

That's a thing called 'promotion'. It's what record labels do to make the public aware of the music their acts release. ;)

Not as agressive as 1D's.

 

You didn't see Pixie, The Sats, Example, Olly, Nero and DJ Fresh do this.

Love that Set Fire To The Rain is still #18! :wub: I wonder if we'll ever get a video..the longevity of this will be huge, already has been. :dance:

Probably the most ridiculous comment ever posted on this site! I'm no big 1D fan but name me someone who would even challenged their sales this week or any other week. It doesn't matter when they released it it would have been number 1, so save the bigoted remarks mate they just make you look silly

That's because One Direction are far more commercially viable than any of those acts and Syco/radio stations/TV channels know it. Same deal with JLS.

Fixed.

 

One Direction have had help with Simon Cowell's unlimited I-tune voucher. All the hype has made this #1.

 

Someone please....have they ANY dirt on the group.

Oh shush! Ridiculous man.

 

Any more scandal-mongering and I will ban you for the week.

That's because Syco pay the channels and OCC, and Simon Cowell's pals with David Cameron so he can get away with it.

Probably a good idea, I dont see how anyone can actually believe what he's saying, or how he can personally believe that himself. :heehee:

 

They dont pay the channels, they send out the song to tv and radio like any other artist/label, it either gets supported or doesnt, and then people can buy it, simple as, just like any other release.

You clearly are delduded! One Direction are #1, Deal With It! Other's like them, stop going on about it.

Wow One Direction at 1 already, I do love the song
I think they did break pre-order records, Leona tweeted about it.

So it probably will get highest first week sales of the year, whats the highest first week sales ever?

I think she should concentrate on her own career since her single is dropping like a brick with a hurricane force.
