So approximate sales yesterday:

 

Military Wives ~61.4k

Little Mix ~16.6k

Lou Monte ~12.9k

Coldplay ~7k (more than they sold on Wednesday :D)

Alex Day ~3.7k (ouch)

 

Military Wives definitely heading for 600k+ considering they're on one of the chat shows (Graham Norton I think?) tonight :( There's no way it'll miss the year-end top 10 now, I just hope Ed Sheeran can overtake JLo and stay safe in the top 10.

1 Military Wives 450,000

2 Little Mix 88,000

3 Lou Monte 68,000

4 Alex Day 45,000

5 Coldplay 35,000

 

 

 

Can't see the top 5 changing, that looks like the official top 5 come Sunday, obviously with more sales.

 

MWC probably around 600k, Little Mix will crack triple figures probably around 110k, Lou Monte around 100k+, Alex Day around 54k-ish, Coldplay around 47k-ish.

So I'd guess maybe 50-55k today, so they'll need almost 100k tomorrow to take them to 600k...

1 Military Wives 450,000

2 Little Mix 88,000

3 Lou Monte 68,000

4 Alex Day 45,000

5 Coldplay 35,000

Can't see the top 5 changing, that looks like the official top 5 come Sunday, obviously with more sales.

 

MWC probably around 600k, Little Mix will crack triple figures probably around 102k, Lou Monte around 80k, Alex Day around 56k-ish, Coldplay around 47k-ish.

I think Coldplay and Alex Day might swap places. CP gained 3.3k on AD yesterday and need to gain at least 5k a day today and tomorrow. And given that:

1. The Friday-Saturday sales are higher and Coldplay will be definitely selling more than 7k

2. Alex Day's sales growth is going to decrease even more -

it's not that hard.

 

I was predicting 50-60k for MWC and I underestimated them a bit (by 2k :P ). Today they'll do about 70k (with late Graham Norton boost) and tomorrow... let's not think about it. I firstly told that they'd end up at 600k but now I'll raise my plank to at least 620k. And yeah, their top-10 place in the year-end chart is inevitable then.

As Little Mix are selling steadily, I think it's safe to say with Christmas eve tomorrow, they should sell around 120,000 this week. Military Wives could sell about 600,000! When was the last time a song for christmas sold that much? I thought it would sell well, but I never thought this much, X Factor had no chance of being Christmas no.1 then.

The last set Of Xmas No 1 to sell more than the CURRENT MW total were:

 

2009- Rage Against The Machine 502k

2008- Alexandra Burke- 576k

2006- Leona Lewis- 571k

2005- Shayne Ward- 742k

Yes especially as Little Mix are nowhere near selling in 2 weeks what most XF winners sell in one.

I've just tweaked my sales range a bit, noticed Alex Day has decreased, and Lou Monte amassed 35k in a day, could crack over 100k but I'm not sure if the novelty is going to wear off, I just took a gamble with Coldplay probably can hit between 47 to 53k, so yeah basically Coldplay have a chance to get #4.

I wonder if OCC would be generous and do a Saturday update tomorrow, with the buzz surrounding the #1

Let's wait to see if we have some Friday Mids first. ;)

Probably the last time I will be on here before Christmas so just wanted to say Happy Christmas Everyone!!!!!!!! :D

Any xmas songs moving up, i notice they are on itunes for one last time this season!!

Based on the first week sales of Little Mix they had no chance of hanging onto No 1. Cannonball will probably be the lowest selling winners single.

Fair play to MW the song is not great but pleased they are making money for a good cause.

Merry Christmas to all especially to the Mods and those that keep the site up and running.

Regarding Friday mids still no info from Music Week, you just have to wait it out, to be honest they aren't going to be any different from yesterday if they do turn up. For now we have top 5 with sales which is better than a kick in the teeth.

 

And has anyone noticed the albums have been totally ignored this week sales wise, I love to how much Michael Buble is selling surely it has to be in the excess of 250k.

205,834 :)

205,834 :)

 

Source? That seems a bit low actually, but he's going to have ENORMOUS sales tomorrow so it'll definitely do 300k+.

205,834 :)

That;s much lower than I thought- thought it would be nearer 250-300k by now

Alex Day still at #4 - Coldplay should overtake now that they're at #3 and Day's highest version is at #23 - besides the Military Wives Choir and Lou Monte, none of the other campaigns have really been successful - Day is still surviving from the multiple versions that were in the top 100 Sunday/Monday.
