September 30, 201113 yr I find it weird people are predicting for songs they've not heard yet. :unsure: Predicting where a song will chart doesn't require you to know what it sounds like. No one has heard the Children In Need version of 'Teardrop' yet, but that doesn't make it any less obvious it'll go straight to #1.

I understand with charity singles and songs that are garanteed the spot. But theres lots of artists who could place anywhere and it is completely depending on the song.

I know what you mean. You can still make an eductaed "guess" though. Some artists tend to chart higher than others in general. Some artists also have a big devoted fanbase. Also, we might not have heard the songs, but people might know some information about them (e.g. genre, tempo, what the song samples, etc.) which can help with predicting how much the public will like it.

September 30, 201113 yr Maybe we could have a thread like this for albums, too? I kind of already did a predictions thing for albums, just more discussion-led and not laid out like this. Feel free though, it'd be interesting!
September 30, 201113 yr Pixie Lott will beat jls to number 1 i think, and im sure the children in need artist name has been named 'Gary Barlow & The Collective' not just 'The Collective'.
September 30, 201113 yr I guess teardrop will just be rapping during the chorus and then maybe Gary and Tulisa singing chorus?
October 1, 201113 yr 3rd October 57 Avicii "Fade Into Darkness" (He should have released this around the time of Leona's single when there was hype! :() 05 Florence + The Machine "Shake It Out" 48 Laidback Luke vs. Example "Natural Disaster" 08 Marina + The Diamonds "Radioactive" 51 RD "Got Me Burnin" 03 Skylar Grey "Invisible" (I believe (maybe more HOPE though :() this will "shock") 10th October 03 Gym Class Heroes feat. Adam Levine "Stereo Hearts" 10 Lana Del Ray "Video Games / Blue Jeans" 01 Matt Cardle "Run For Your Life" 06 Timbaland feat. Pitbull "Pass At Me" 31 Wolfgang Gartner feat. will.i.am "Forever" 17th October 58 Joe Jonas "Just In Love" 04 Kelly Clarkson "Mr Know It All" 60 Mann feat.

Usher "Without You" (It'll peak at #4 probably the week before or after.) 76+ Inna "Un Mumento" 03 Labrinth feat. Tinie Tempah "Earthquake" 07 LMFAO "Sexy And I Know It" (It'll peak well before this date!) 02 Professor Green feat.

Pusha T "What Do You Take Me For?" (Controversial, I know. But I honestly believe she'll JUST edge JLS out of the way.) 10 Tinchy Stryder "Off The Record" 14th November 01 The Collective (Children In Need) "Teardrop" 01 Rihanna feat. Calvin Harris "We Found Love" (Like everyone else, this will get to number 1 at some point. If it's before or after CIN, it will happen.) 04 The Saturdays "My Heart Takes Over" (This will do an 'Issues' and peak a week or two AFTER release I think... I think this should be included. It's going to be a decent sized hit for them!) 03 Westlife "Lighthouse" 21st November 28 Britney Spears "Criminal" 47 Chase & Status feat. Plan B & Rage "Fool Yourself" 08 Pitbull feat. Chris Brown "International Lover" 28th November 05 James Morrison & Jessie J "Up"
October 1, 201113 yr Jonjo, you really think Pixie, releasing on the same week as her album, will outshine a new JLS ballad single which is practically certain to do over 100k (much higher than Pixie has ever managed in a week)?
October 1, 201113 yr If Rihanna releases this week, that will put a lot of predictions out. Its going to be an interesting single battle on the week of 9th October, if Rihanna is among the big releases with Matt Cardle and Gym Class Heroes.
October 1, 201113 yr This is my first time so... ya know! 3rd October Avicii "Fade Into Darkness" #48 Florence + The Machine "Shake It Out" #12 Laidback Luke vs. Example "Natural Disaster" #7 Marina + The Diamonds "Radioactive" #9 RD "Got Me Burnin" #57 Skylar Grey "Invisible" #23 10th October Gym Class Heroes feat.

October 2, 201113 yr If Rihanna releases this week, that will put a lot of predictions out. Only by one place though, surely?
October 2, 201113 yr Jonjo, you really think Pixie, releasing on the same week as her album, will outshine a new JLS ballad single which is practically certain to do over 100k (much higher than Pixie has ever managed in a week)?In all honesty, no. But I just don't want her to stop her "number 1 or no top 10" streak she has going haha. So I'm gonna stick my neck out and say that her releasing the same week as the album may actually be beneficial for her and will cause an "upset". Or as with Skylar, it's more hope ha.
