January 2011? lol

We needed a new thread so I thought I might as well get a bit ahead of ourselves rather than edit in three days time :lol:

I think he meant the title being 2011. Should be January 2012.

Whatever do you mean :whistle:

3. Set Fire to the Rain - ADELE :D

3. Set Fire to the Rain - ADELE :D

 

WTFFFFF, How can be number three having sold nearly 6 million albums?!

OHMYGOD. #3 WITHOUT a video. AND 21 has sold an exceptional amount. I'm just amazed.

SET FIRE TO THE RAIN FOR ADELE'S 3RD CONSECUTIVE #1!!!!

Video needs to be out in January, it's radio play is looking good too, on the way up and up every day. :dance:

WFL needs to f*** right off at this point, overplayed doesn't even begin to describe it and I'm waiting for the other songs on her album to gain traction.

2. Set Fire to the Rain - ADELE :o :cheer:

 

LMFAO have quite a big lead at #1 so she'll take a while to make that last jump but hopefully she will manage it :D A third straight H100 #1 would just be perfect.

 

Post-album singles tend to do better in the USA than they do in the UK anyway I've noticed but it still seems odd that SFTTR has already peaked higher in the USA and looks like it has a very realistic chance of actually being another #1! Especially since this is a British artist - who was the last Brit to get 3 #1 singles in a row, let alone all off one album?

I think George Michael was the last Brit to have 4 #1's in a row off of Faith (1987)

I definitely think she's got a 3rd Hot 100 number 1 coming her way soon :wub:

That sounds about right - I was thinking it would have been either him or Elton. "First British act to get 3 US Hot 100 #1s in a row (/off one album) in 24/5 years" could well be added to her list of records and achievements in a few weeks' time then :D

I think Set Fire to the Rain will get #1. I mean, it's #2 without a video for goodness sake! :D She might perform it at an award show soon, and if it gets a music video it'll boost it. Plus, it's airplay isn't even that high, and it is Adele, so I'm pretty sure it'll get to #1 on the radio chart.

 

Probably won't get #1 officially until like February though. This might seem a bit premature, since it's still 2011, but I honestly would not be surprised if Set Fire to the Rain is in 2012's year-end top 10.

She's up for six awards at the Grammy's so she could perform it there, but they aren't until February 12th, hope that wouldn't be too late for it with it already being #2 on iTunes (though I guess if LMFAO can go so many weeks before actually getting to #1..)

Nice one Adele

Party Rock Anthem up to #5.

Party Rock Anthem up to #5.

 

Now up to #3. DEAR LORD.

 

(Adele back down to #4 as Rihanna and Calvin are also up to #2 - never to worry, I'm sure she'll be back up there, her airplay is still nowhere near done increasing).

It's great that PRA is still in the top 5 but seriously are there this many people who don't already have the song :lol: Hopefully it can break the record for most top 10 weeks in the chart :D Adele should easily get #1 in the new year, the radio love her
