I don't get that with International Love either. Perhaps some people just buy whatever the most popular version is of a song and don't look at things like the price (assuming everything is 99p).

 

Love 2 Club 2012

90. Redd ft. Akon & Snoop Dogg - I'm Day Dreaming

183. Avicii - Levels

241. LMFAO - Sexy and I Know It

276. R.I.O. ft. U-Jean - Turn This Club Around

293. Alyssa Reid ft. Jump Smokers - Alone Again

208. The Saturdays - Megamix

341. Rizzle Kicks - Mama Do the Hump

364. Maverick Sabre - No One

410. Pixie Lott - Kiss the Stars

474. Cover Drive - Twighlight

501. Lady Gaga - Marry the Night

511. Martin Solveig & Dragonette - Big in Japan ft. Idoling!!!

541. Tinchy Stryder ft. Calvin Harris - Off the Record

565. Taio Cruz - Troublemaker

 

They actually dospell "Twilight" wrong on that album. :mellow: And I don't think that Martin Solveig song has been released before in the UK has it? And I've never heard of a Saturdays song called Megamix. Or is it actually a megamix of their songs? :lol: I listened to the Redd song. I don't like it. It sounds like an extremely cheap version of Only Girl. It's so badly produced aswell, you can barely hear the vocals on the track. Plus, T.I. is supposed to have a verse, but they cut it out for some reason. :drama: I'd love to see Akon and Snoop Dogg back in the chart, but this song is so awful, that I really would prefer it to just free-fall now tbh.

 

Anthems Hip-Hop 2 - Ministry of Sound

62. Luniz ft. Michael Marshall - I Got 5 On It

123. The Sugarhill Gang - Rapper's Delight

159. The Notorioous B.I.G. - Juicy

218. Ol' Dirty bast*rd ft. Kelis - Got Your Money

220. Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five - The Message

242. Ice Cube ft. Mack 10 & Ms Toi - You Can Do It

255. Run-DMC - It's Like That

411. N.W.A. - Express Yourself (Remix)

464. 50 Cent - In da Club

542. Skee-Lo - I Wish

690. J Cole - Work Out

891. Nas & Bravehearts - Oochie Wally (Remix)

 

I don't actually know some of those songs. It's weird to see Work Out on there though, in amongst all those classics. :lol: It's a fantastic song though, so maybe it won't seem out of place with those songs in the future. Some of those songs, like Rapper's Delight were in the chart beforehand anyway iirc.

 

R&B SlowJamz

129. Fabolous ft. Tamia - Into You

185. Drake ft. Rihanna - Take Care

260. R. Kelly - Bump 'N' Grind

273. Mary J. Blige - Be With You

284. Usher - U Got It Bad

299. Jeremih - Birthday Shhhhhhh Sex

304. K-Ci & JoJo - All My Life

399. Ne-Yo - So Sick

430. Bobby - Slow Down

462. Boyz II Men - I'll Make Love to You

463. Jordin Sparks ft. Chris Brown - No Air

543. Lil Wayne - How to Love

619. Blackstreet - Don't Leave Me

752. Chris Brown - Take You Down

753. Timbaland ft. OneRepublic - Apologize

791. Boyz II Men - End of the Road

792. Jodeci - Freek'n You

822. Keisha White - The Weakness In Me

941. Nelly Furtado - Say It Right

947. Alicia Keys - Un-Thinkable

976. Ginuwine - In Those Jeans

 

Apologize looks so out of place on the album. The only thing it has in common with RnB is the drum pattern tbh, and although it's slow, it's not really much of a "jam". Great to see Un-Thinkable back in the top 1000. It was the biggest RnB song of 2010, but it didn't get popular here. I think it could've been a top 20 hit in the UK if they gave it more of a push, since Alicia was massive here back in 2010. Her Beyonce collab could've been big aswell.

Oh, I hope The Saturday's Megamix of Notorious, All Fired Up & My Heart Takes over can break the top 200!

What song would get the sales from the megamix though?

Yeah, I was thinking that. I don't know. Maybe it'd chart as a new track? It would be funny if it went top 40 aswell, as it would take up a lot of the show (or they could make a radio edit, but that would sound like A MESS and a half :lol:). I'd imagine My Heart Takes Over sounds a bit out of place in that megamix. :lol:

what is the "top 10 effect"

 

When a song enters the top 10 on iTunes, pretty much every time it gets a boost due to it featuring on the homepage as a result of this.

 

Re Madonna :

 

I just don't get why anyone as savvy & experienced as Madge, would allow her record company to split her crucial early sales by releasing so late in the week? :unsure:

Because it's a worldwide release but from country to country the sales data are compiled from different days. Either she releases her new song in different days from country to country, or she just give it a go everywhere the same day. So simple.

So, what's the problem with releasing it on different days in different countries - we're only talking about 1.5 days, after all!

I don't think it really matters for her or for her label if the song is not charting that high after 2 days of sales.

 

On another note I'm still not sure if the song will be eligible to chart at all if it will be given away for free if you pre-order her album. Any news on that? We shall see this afternoon I guess.

Madonna probably won't even peak first week aswell. So if she releases on Friday, maybe she'll debut at #15, and if she released on Sunday, maybe she'll debut at #5. I doubt she really cares that much, and it's probably her record label deciding to release it like this. If the song is genuinely a big hit, it won't make a difference what day it's released. Like We Found Love and Party Rock Anthem would've been mutli-week #1s whatever day they were released.

 

Secondly, no offense to any of us, but I doubt Madonna cares about the UK. If the song is ineligible to chart, I don't think they'll care enough to do anything about it, as it means nothing from their perspective. It's all about the US, and getting #1 on the Hot 100.

She cares enough to live here, and send her daughter to private school here...

And she'll deffo want one of those new awards you get when you have a number one now! :kink:

So what time is Madge releasing today? If its late it wont affect its sales that much, she'll only have 24 hrs really - most of her sales will be next week then.

 

great to see Gotye in the top 2, who says songs need to be held back - this is the perfect example of a slow rise of a song as it gains in popularity and the charts are better for it, reminds me of Aloe Blacc!!

 

Next week will be very interesting!

Such a beautiful video for CB... I wish the Brit's wasn't a week away and POC will kill this song obviously... they both needs to smash but... we'll deal.
