May 29, 201214 yr Loreen might head back to the top actually, she's coming to the UK tomorrow for PROMO! As for Kylie, an Top 15 finish this week, followed by a Top 10 next week may do it for her, as she has Alan Carr and the Jubliee concert.
May 29, 201214 yr Loreen might head back to the top actually, she's coming to the UK tomorrow for PROMO! As for Kylie, an Top 15 finish this week, followed by a Top 10 next week may do it for her, as she has Alan Carr and the Jubliee concert. If The Voice can't boost her significantly then Alan Carr certainly won't, and neither will the Jubilee given she won't be performing "Time Bomb". She'll be lucky to go top 20 this week and hold onto top 40 next.
May 31, 201214 yr Author Midweek Charts: Paloma Faith heads busy week for new albums Source: MW 16:15 | Wednesday May 30, 2012 By Paul Williams Paloma Faith will lead an influx of Top 10 debuts in the UK artists albums chart this weekend with the top six sellers so far this week all brand new releases. Faith’s RCA album Fall To Grace is currently in a close battle to top the countdown with the Decca-issued Queen’s Diamond Jubilee album Sing by Gary Barlow and the Commonwealth Band, according to the Official Charts Company. While Faith is ahead at present, Barlow’s album was only around 3,500 sales behind up to the end of business on Tuesday and will have the benefit of publicity surrounding the forthcoming Diamond Jubilee Bank Holiday weekend. Whatever the outcome of that battle, Fall To Grace will beat the peak of nine achieved by Faith’s first album Do You Want The Truth Or Something, which has sold around 500,000 copies in the UK since its 2009 release. Lined up immediately behind Faith and Barlow’s albums are four other brand new releases, led in third spot by Polydor act Scissor Sisters’ fourth album Magic Hour. Just a few hundred sales further behind, Rumer’s second Atlantic effort Boys Don’t Cry is fourth, while Sony Classical’s Russell Watson shows up as a new entry at five with Anthems and Parlophone’s Sigur Ros at six with Valtari. Two other brand new albums are also currently among the Top 10 sellers with Decca’s Melody Gardot ranked eighth with The Absence and Brilliant, the first new studio album by Ultravox with the classic line-up led by Midge Ure since 1986’s U-Vox, is ninth. To further add to the nostalgia, EMI has issued it on the band’s old Chrysalis imprint. The eight new Top 10 entries at this stage of the week therefore means only two survivors from last Sunday’s Top 10. These are led in seventh place by Virgin act Emeli Sande’s Our Version Of Events, which returned to number one last weekend, and Reprise/Rhino’s Bee Gees best of Number Ones falling 5-10. The biggest of the Top 10 casualties is Joe Bonasmassa’s Provogue album Driving Towards The Daylight, which debuted at two last Sunday but is now down to 31, while Columbia act John Mayer slips 4-27 with Born And Raised. If things stay as they are, XL act Adele’s 21 will slip out of the Top 10 for the first time since its release in January 2011 as it drops 12-3 in the midweeks. However, it is only currently around 300 sales short of the Top 10 so has every chance of making up the deficit and more by the end of the chart week. Having won the Eurovision Song Contest last Saturday, Sweden’s entry Euphoria by Loreen has accelerated 85-2 on the singles chart midweeks. The Warner Bros has already been a hit in parts of Europe, including topping the charts in Sweden and Finland. Around 8,000 sales ahead of Euphoria, the newly-issued Asylum/Atlantic single Feel The Love by Rudimental featuring John Newman has put down an early marker to top the chart this coming Sunday. It is currently joined among the Top 10 sellers at four by When She Was Mine, the brand new debut single by Polydor four-piece band Lawson. Having climbed to number one last Sunday, Fun featuring Janelle Monae’s Atlantic/Fueled By Ramen single We Are Young dips to three in the latest Sales Flashes, while Def Jam/Mercury’s Rihanna moves up 6-5 with Where Have You Been. Completing the Top 10 at this point in the week, Interscope/Polydor act Carly Rae Jepsen’s Call Me Maybe drops 3-6, Island’s Alex Clare falls 5-7 with Too Close, Global Talent/Island’s The Wanted slide to eighth place having debuted at two last Sunday with Chasing The Sun, while Columbia/Roc Nation release R.I.P. by Rita Ora featuring Tinie Tempah falls 4-9 and Columbia band Train declines 8-10 with Drive By. Gary Barlow and the Commonwealth Band’s Decca-issued Diamond Jubilee track Sing is currently ranked as a new entry at 17, while other new arrivals to the midweeks include tracks by UMTV’s Sebastian Ingrosso/Alesso, RCA’s Alexandra Burke and Mercury’s Justin Bieber. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Wednesday Update Top 40 Only Top 40 Singles 1 Rudimental/John Newman 2 Loreen 3 fun./Janelle Monae 4 Lawson 5 Rihanna 6-10 11-20 15 Labrinth 17 Gary Barlow 18 Coldplay & Rihanna 19 Sebastian Ingrosso 21-30 21 Pitbull 22 Kylie MInogue 23 Alexandra Burke 25 Azealia Banks 31-40 31 Justin Bieber [DIYA] 35 Wretch 32/Ed Sheeran http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/chart/update/singles/print http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/r...rt-update-1421/ ============================== Top 40 Albums 1 Paloma Faith 2 Gary Barlow 3 Scissor Sisters 4 Rumer 5 Russell Watson 6-10 6 Sigur Ros 8 Meolody Gardot 9 Ultravox 11-20 14 Regina Spektor 21-30 21 Arcihtects 30 Laura Wright 31-40 39 Public Image Ltd http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/chart/update/albums/print http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/p...-to-grace-1420/
