If it is true that Keane are outselling the rest of the Top 10 combined, wouldnt that suggest their sales must be heading for 100,000 for the week, based on combined top 10 sales from last week?

If he wins Eurovision surely it will go into the top 40 officially with the hype?

 

its not a very good song, I don't think there is any chance of winning

No way will it win, top 10 is a possibility, Sweden it appears have Eurovision in the bag this year. Is Jedwards waterline released yet?

Midweek Charts update: BBC show gives new Voice to Sande album

10:42 | Friday May 11, 2012

By Paul Williams

 

Weekly sales of Emeli Sande’s Our Version Of Events have more than doubled following her appearance on The Voice as she looks to claim runners-up spot on this coming weekend’s UK artist albums chart.

 

The Virgin album was experiencing a week-on-week sales rise of 107% up to the end of business on Thursday, according to the Official Charts Company, to sit at two on the midweeks with Keane’s newly-issued Island album Strangeland a long distance ahead in first place.

 

The rise in sales of the album, which was in eighth place on last week’s chart, appears to be a direct consequence of Sande performing My Kind Of Love on the BBC One programme’s results show last Sunday. The track itself has also experienced a big leap in sales, rising 659% on the week to move it 143-25 on the latest midweeks.

 

Richard Hawley’s new Parlophone album Standing At The Sky’s Edge is currently appearing as a new entry at three with XL’s Adele album 21 rising 5-4 and Wichita act The Cribs new at five with In The Belly Of The Brazen Bull. Global Talent/Polydor’s Cover Drive complete the new arrivals at seven with Bajan Style.

 

Rita Ora featuring Tinie Tempah’s Columbia/Roc Nation R.I.P. has already sold more than 80,000 copies on its way to debuting at one on the UK singles chart with AATW/Island’s Tulisa dropping 1-2 with Young and Island act Alex Clare moving up 5-3 with Too Close. The Interscope/Polydor track Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen drops 2-4 in the latest Sales Flashes as the Atlantic/Fueled By Ramen-issued We Are Young by fun. featuring Janelle Monae slips 3-5.

Yay @ Cover Drive climbing a place. :)

 

Any reason why Rizzle Kicks are back in the top 15?

 

Ouch @ Marina.

So Keane must be heading for sales of 40k, emeli 22k or so and Rita Ora 115k?

Rita Ora already selling 80k with two more days of sales to be added. Could easily breakthrough the 100k sales barrier but I was expecting 'R.I.P.' to outdo 'Hot Right Now' to become the fastest selling new release so far this year but looks like it'll fall short.

 

Ouch @ Marina.

 

Compared to Christina Aguilera 'Bionic', that's nothing. :kink:

how is Gotye still in the top 10? has he got more versions on iTunes
Yay @ Cover Drive climbing a place. :)

 

Any reason why Rizzle Kicks are back in the top 15?

 

Ouch @ Marina.
