I do love a bandwagon!

 

01 Gotye ft. Kimbra - Somebody That I Used To Know 11/10

02 Jessie J - Domino 10/10

03 Carly Rae Jepsen - Call Me Maybe 10/10

04 David Guetta ft. Sia - Titanium 10/10

05 Katy Perry - Part Of Me 9/10

06 Cover Drive - Twilight 9/10

07 Rita Ora ft. Tinie Tempah - R.I.P. 8.5/10

08 Tulisa - Young 8/10

09 Coldplay - Paradise 7.5/10

10 Chris Brown - Turn Up The Music 7.5/10

11 Flo Rida - Good Feeling 7/10

12 DJ Fresh ft. Rita Ora - Hot Right Now 5/10

At least Tulisa's reign will be cut to a week, I wouldn't be surprised if "Young" has a "No Regrets"-esque chart run now.

 

When I said it was a straight fight between Rita Ora and fun. for #1, I'll now delay that until next week given this one looks like a foregone conclusion.

 

ISTM you'll need to delay that indefinitely, as there's no way Fun is going to be #1 at all...

212. Perfect World - Gossip

 

:(

Let's see...

 

1. Gotye ft. Kimbra - Somebody That I Used To Know - 9/10

2. Coldplay - Paradise - 7/10

3. David Guetta ft. Sia - Titanium - 6/10

4. Rita Ora ft. Tinie Tempah - R.I.P. - 6/10

5. DJ Fresh ft. Rita Ora - Hot Right Now 6/10

6. Jessie J - Domino - 6/10

7. Cover Drive - Twilight - 5/10

8. Carly Rae Jepsen - Call Me Maybe - 4/10

9. Flo Rida - Good Feeling - 3/10

10. Tulisa - Young - 1/10

11. Chris Brown - Turn Up The Music - 1/10

12. Katy Perry - Part Of Me - 1/10

 

 

I suppose it's not TOO bad, for the most part. Gotye will most likely still be the best UK #1 by the end of the year

Why do you think that? It looks like it'll be a quiet week next week, so if Rita falls quickly (which is likely, since it's been held back so long), then it could. All it needs is a performance on The Voice aswell.

The only number 1s I've not liked/found average are Turn Up The Music & Young. Good Feeling is decent, The rest are all 8/10 moments with one 9 (Paradise) and one 10 (Titanium), 2012 so far is definitely looking like the best year for music since 2009.

I wouldn't be so sure, it's still gathering momentum and gaining sales.

 

#7 38,390

#3 67,777

#3 70,581

 

Slowing more than I realised actually but #1 sales will most likely be down to 70k-ish from next week onwards.

Carrie at roughly #337, if I didn't screw up my counting. Far too low. :(

 

Glad Rita's at #1 now though, just about to buy that, Far East Movement and Carrie. :D

#59 - Set Fire To The Rain (used in BGT was #88 before used) :wub:

 

R.I.P will be #1, Tulisa's performance won't be a stand out performance. Emeli Sande's on the other hand will be, I'm hoping for top 10. :heart: I realise thats really ambitious right now, but top 20 would be nice, and then with support from radio/tv top 10 eventually in the weeks to come?

 

We Are Young won't be #1, pretty sure it wont be, its going to continue to stick around for ages, but wont get to #1 (i.e: Love The Way You Lie). Thats my prediction anyway, would love if it did at some point.

Very surprised to see FEM flopping :o

If Fun's sales start to drop below last week's figure, it'll be difficult, and if they don't drop this week, they surely will in the next 7 days.

RE This years number 1s

 

01 Gotye ft Kimbra - 10/10

02 Carly Rae Jepsen - 10/10

03 David Guetta ft Sia - 10/10

04 DJ Fresh 9.5/10

05 Coldplay - 9/10

06 Cover Drive - 9/10

07 Tulisa - 8.5/10

08 Jessie J - 8/10

09 Rita Ora - 8/10

10 Katy Perry - 8/10

 

BIG GAP!

 

11 Chris Brown - 6/10

 

EVEN BIGGER GAP!

 

12 Flo Rida - 3/10

That new Far East Movement song is just dire - fair enough the chorus is actually pretty decent, but it's too frequent and it's from Justin Bieber, the featured artist. Much like 'Rocketeer' and 'Like a G6', the group's success is down to the chorus/featured artist, so I'm hoping this doesn't stick around too long - and I certainly hope it doesn't trouble the top 10.

 

I am interested to see who'll claim #1 next week actually, Tulisa and Rita Ora were pretty clear winners (though I'd doubted whether 'R.I.P.' would get there considering how held back it was). We've got The Saturdays, but I don't see them selling 60-80k+, which Fun., Carly, Tulisa + Rita Ora could all manage if they keep it up.

So happy for Rita!

Does anyone know if Marina made the top ten yet?

No sorry. I suggest you find that out yourself. You can always find out by listening to the chart show or on the Sunday Chart Show Thread
