March 14, 201214 yr I think the chart from OCC is a lot better than scrolling up and down on the Radio 1 site, its all mashed up together without the fancy bits. this one is the best i think ;-) The Official UK Singles Chart Update - 14 March 2012
March 14, 201214 yr Noel at #28 will probably drop out by Sunday but he's certain to beat the peak of "If I Had A Gun..." at least. Paul Weller shockingly low, I'd expect his physicals to push him well into the top 40.
March 14, 201214 yr was really hoping for Michael Kiwanuku to get number 1 album, darn mothers day :( Wasn't expecting Noel Gallagher to be that high even with high physicals :o I hope it can stay top 40 although it most likely won't
March 14, 201214 yr Summary of top 5/new entries/climbers: Singles Top 5: 1 [1] Gotye feat. Kimbra - Somebody That I Used To Know 2 [*] Alexandra Burke feat. Erick Morillo - Elephant 3 [3] Nicki Minaj - Starships 4 [2] Emeli Sandé - Next To Me 5 [4] Flo Rida feat. Sia - Wild Ones New entries 6-40: 23 [**] Jason Mraz - I Won't Give Up 27 [46] Azealia Banks feat. Lazy Jay - 212 28 [**] Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - Dream On 36 [51] LMFAO - Sorry For Party Rocking * 40 [**] Swedish House Mafia - Greyhound Climbers: 6 [8] David Guetta feat. Sia - Titanium 9 [10] David Guetta feat. Nicki Minaj - Turn Me On 13 [18] Jay-Z and Kanye West - Niggas In Paris (new peak) 16 [17] Lil Wayne feat. Bruno Mars - Mirror (new peak) 19 [34] Taio Cruz feat. Flo Rida - Hangover (new peak) 20 [32] Lana Del Rey - Video Games 24 [31] Rihanna feat. Jay-Z - Talk That Talk (new peak) 33 [38] Coldplay - Charlie Brown 39 [40] Lloyd feat. André 3000 and Lil Wayne - Dedication To My Ex (Miss That) * R1 page says this is Party Rock Anthem but this is a fairly obvious mistake, it only says '3 weeks in the chart' which is way off PRA and matches SFPR, plus the iTunes chart indicates that it'd make no sense for PRA to be top 40 but not SFPR. Surprised at the lack of Paul Weller today and also surprised and upset at the lack of M.I.A. but I imagine she'll climb in later in the week ('Dream On' will almost certainly drop out for one thing). Great position for Azealia and very surprised to see SHM already top 40 after missing Sunday sales and only really taking off yesterday! Another great climb for 'Niggas In Paris' and also good to see Mirror still climbing well. 'Video Games' won't hang onto the top 20 but nice to see it up there today. And finally, 'Charlie Brown' should be well on its way to a new peak and probably outpeaking 'Life In Technicolor ii' based on its iTunes progress :D Albums Top 5: 1 [2] Military Wives - In My Dreams (new peak) 2 [*] Michael Kiwanuka - Home Again 3 [3] Emeli Sandé - Our Version Of Events 4 [4] Adele - 21 5 [1] Bruce Springsteen - Wrecking Ball New entries 6-40: 7 [*] Marcus Collins - Marcus Collins 15 [**] Michael Bolton - Gems - The Very Best Of 27 [52] Will Young - Echoes (re-entry) 33 [**] Jason Donovan - Sign Of Your Love 36 [43] Kelly Clarkson - Stronger (re-entry) 40 [**] Grimes - Visions Climbers: 13 [16] Justin Fletcher - Hands Up... The Album (new peak) 17 [20] Olly Murs - In Case You Didn't Know 22 [23] Bruno Mars - Doo-Wops & Hooligans 23 [26] LMFAO - Sorry For Party Rocking 24 [27] Jay-Z and Kanye West - Watch The Throne 28 [31] Rebecca Ferguson - Heaven Boo at Military Wives being #1 already, I was hoping Kiwanuka could get there at least for the midweek update :( They'll no doubt take it with a massive lead now then. I suspect '21' could finish a bit higher than #4 as well. Pleased to see Marcus underperforming. Lol at Justin Fletcher actually looking for a climb in his second week... :lol: And woo at Watch The Throne climbing although it'll be forced back down with the Mother's Day rush probably.

March 14, 201214 yr Author this one is the best i think ;-) The Official UK Singles Chart Update - 14 March 2012 The Radio 1 chart update has gone all poo again like last week, that's the main reason I removed the Radio 1 links, it just seem so unreliable. I must admit that's a bit better as you know last week's position, but the album chart update is last week's.
March 14, 201214 yr How can Katie Melua only be #14 - I'd have thought she would have benefited significantly from the Mothers Day effect? :cry:
March 14, 201214 yr Justin Fletcher's album is being heavily promoted on ASDA FM, which probably explains it's increase of sales. Just proving that I can link any topic to a certain band, I see that Justin Fletcher is signed to Demon Records. This is the same label that re-issued the Deluxe Versions of Suede's 5 studio albums last year.
March 14, 201214 yr I'm pretty impressed with Noel being at #28!! After Tuesday sales. The physical sales for him must be huge !!
March 14, 201214 yr How can Katie Melua only be #14 - I'd have thought she would have benefited significantly from the Mothers Day effect? :cry: How much do you hate your mother?
March 14, 201214 yr *GEEKY POST ALERT* If Titanium holds #6, it will mean that it only needs #9 and #10 to have been in every top 10 position...
March 15, 201214 yr Marcus Collins not top 5 is great in the album, Jason Donovan lower than i expected.
March 15, 201214 yr The Radio 1 chart update has gone all poo again like last week, that's the main reason I removed the Radio 1 links, it just seem so unreliable. I must admit that's a bit better as you know last week's position, but the album chart update is last week's. I much prefer the Radio1 update too as it's designed to make it very easy to see the movers/new entries. Just a pity, as you say, that it's "gone all poo again" - Come on Radio1 website people, sort it out!!
March 15, 201214 yr I hope noe; gallgher can stay top 40 in the singles, either way though it will help sustain album sales for a while longer, his album will easily manage double platnum plus now.
March 16, 201214 yr Author Midweek Charts update: Sande taking on Military Wives Source: MW 13:41 | Friday March 16, 2012 By Paul Williams Emeli Sande is mounting a late challenge to Military Wives to top the UK artist albums chart this weekend after pushing ahead of Michael Kiwanuka. BBC Sound of 2012 winner Kiwanuka’s debut Polydor album Home Again opened its week of release leading the Official Charts Company’s midweek sales figures, but it was firstly overtaken by Decca’s Military Wives album In My Dreams and has now been surpassed by Virgin act Sande’s Our Version Of Events. The Sande album, which was placed third on last Sunday’s chart, is the only album that was in last week’s Top 10 to grow its sales this week. It is 5.3% ahead of last week’s numbers in second place, around 9,000 units behind Military Wives. Adele’s XL album 21 matches its position of four achieved on last week’s chart in the week so far while, having debuted at number one last weekend, Columbia-signed Bruce Springsteen is now down to five with Wrecking Ball. The Top 10 at this stage of the week also includes X Factor 2011 runner-up Marcus Collins’ self-titled RCA debut showing up as a new entry at six and Positiva/Virgin’s David Guetta climbing 11-10 with Nothing But The Beat. Island’s Gotye featuring Kimbra single Somebody That I Used To Know had sold nearly a further 50,000 downloads this week up to the end of business on Thursday as it heads to number one for a fifth week. Cash Money/Island’s Nicki Minaj is now its nearest challenger with Starships in second place, while the Syco single Elephant by Alexandra Burke and Erick Morillo is cropping up as a new entry at three having begun the week in runners-up spot. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Friday Update Top 40 Only Singles 1 Gotye/Kimbra (50k) 2 Nicki Minaj 3 Alexandra Burke 4 Emeli Sande 5 Flo Rida/Sia Top 10 6 David Guetta/Sia David Guetta/Nicki Minaj Top 15 13 Jay-Z/Kanye West 15 Swedish House Mafia Top 20 Lil' Wayne 17 Jason Mraz Top 30 Pitbull/Chris Brown Taio Cruz/Flo Rida Lana Del Rey [VG] 25 Coldplay [CB] 26 Azealia/Lazy Jay 28 Rihanna/Jay-Z 29 Lloyd/Andre 3000/Lil' Wayne Top 40 LMFAO -[sFPR] 40 M.I.A. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Albums 1 Military Wives 2 Emeli Sande (9k behind) 3 Michael Kiwanuka 4 Adele [21] 5 Bruce Springsteen Top 10 6 Marcus Collins David Guetta Top 15 Michael Bolton Top 20 Olly Murs Top 30 Bruno Mars LMFAO 25 Will Young 26 Rebecca Ferguson Top 40 Mary Bryne 35 Kelly Clarkson Jason Donovan Andre Rieu NO SALES INFO ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ARTIST UPDATES Singles StooShe 5+4 Marcus 5+5 Tinchy/Pixie 5+6 Kelly C 7+7 Dappy 20+7 Olly Murs 30+1 Rihanna/Calvin Haris 30+5 Maroon 5/Christina 30+6 Coldplay 30+7 Albums Lana Del Rey 4+3 Ed Sheeran 4+4 Gotye 10+3 Adele [19] 14+4 1D 30+2 Rihanna [TTT] 30+4 [Loud] 30+9 Katy Perry 30+10
