November 29, 201114 yr The Saturdays and Pixie are having dreadful album eras. Feel bad for Kelly but she performs on the show this week so her album may rise. Happy N'Dubz have flopped. Good on Olly, I think his second album is better than his first so he deserves his success. Who apart from vidcapper is buying Joe's Christmas hits, this is the worst cover with the worst video ever. Joe is selling his album on QVC shopping channel, I think the sales must be pretty good and I think he's touring also and doing tv appearances, so he's doing well really considering it's just another covers album.
November 29, 201114 yr I don't find the flop Greatest Hits packages in the least bit surprising. Both Gorillaz and N-Dubz have only had a handful of hits the public will recognise, both have been inactive from the mainstream all year and neither have any new material to promote it with. I never understand why acts release Greatest Hits packages without something to promote it with, the two singles did absolute wonders for Pink last year, I doubt it would have sold anywhere near half of its total without them.
November 29, 201114 yr Doubtful, theres a lack of new releases! I think you're underestimating the potential of The Only Way Is Essex's cover of Last Christmas :blink: :D
November 29, 201114 yr Why does Joe Mcelderry always have to be compared to Olly They are 2 different artists..who happen to have been in the same Show......... and Joe's is a Christmas Album.. And why would Olly want revenge .. Does he still hold a grudge 2years on from Xfactor!! Joe's doing just fine with his career... ;)
November 29, 201114 yr Steve201, there is the Nirvana song, which could have a similar effect to Rage Against The Machine. There are over 97,000 members currently backing this on Facebook. Edited November 29, 201114 yr by StephenN18
November 29, 201114 yr I'm quite shocked by how Kelly Rowland's album is doing, I was thinking more top 15! :o
November 29, 201114 yr Its be like that for a while now. Not sure how her album will perform next week, don't forget straight after the X Factor Results on Sunday, there is Beyonce's TV Special, Kelly's performance will be left in the shadow, will people forget it :lol: Beyonce's hype is bigger than Kelly's bum ^_^ I think that works better the other way round :P
November 29, 201114 yr I can honestly see Buble's Christmas overtaking Olly on Saturday... Christmas should increase further this week and could sell as high as 130k-150k imo. Starting with 50k Olly should do 130-150k too. (probably closer to 130 though) :kink:
November 29, 201114 yr MLJ STILL top10! I wonder if they'll be able to stay there all week I wonder if Marry The Night will climb much at the end of the week I heard the videos being released on thursday
November 29, 201114 yr I'm surprised Olly Murs is selling so strongly with his album, although I think its a lot to do with the strength of his first single, heart skips a beat, rather than the second one which is weaker in comparison.
November 29, 201114 yr I've just been reading the rules on the OP because I didn't understand the artist updates bit, now i've read its obviously simple but what I don't understand is what is the point in this? why not just put what number they are?
November 29, 201114 yr I've just been reading the rules on the OP because I didn't understand the artist updates bit, now i've read its obviously simple but what I don't understand is what is the point in this? why not just put what number they are? Very simple: because we are not allowed. The OCC monitors it, and we could get into trouble if we post exact figures and positions.
November 29, 201114 yr What number is Nickelback please? Last in the singles, dropped 14 in the albums chart from Sunday's position.
November 29, 201114 yr Very simple: because we are not allowed. The OCC monitors it, and we could get into trouble if we post exact figures and positions. It's absurd of course, as long as you can do simple sums, you get the info - why the OCC think that makes a difference is a mystery none here can fathom. :rolleyes:
November 29, 201114 yr Author Where abouts is the Wanted's album? down 3 places from last Sunday's position It's absurd of course, as long as you can do simple sums, you get the info - why the OCC think that makes a difference is a mystery none here can fathom. :rolleyes: Its not absurd, rather be safe than sorry. With all the album info in the artists update, as there seems to be a lot, I'm weary of adding more to it, as we are practically giving away the top 40.
November 29, 201114 yr Its not absurd, rather be safe than sorry. You misunderstand - I meant absurd that the OCC will accept sums, but not numbers. I'm well aware of why it is done that way here.
November 29, 201114 yr Author You misunderstand - I meant absurd that the OCC will accept sums, but not numbers. Ah... I see... the drugs haven't worn off yet. :(
