July 30, 201214 yr Author Midweeks: Conor Maynard and Plan B in race to No.1 Source: MW by Tim Ingham Albums: Conor Maynard looks set to land at No.1 on Sunday's Official UK Artist Albums Chart, but he's being chased down by Plan B. UK rapper Plan B's Ill Manors album - which hit the top spot last Sunday - has opened its account this week at No.2 on the Wednesday Official chart update. According to Official Chart Company figures, Maynard is around 500 sales ahead. Delilah's debut record on Atlantic, From The Roots Up hits No.3 on Wednesday's Midweeks, whilst following her performance at the Olympic Opening Ceremony last Friday, Emeli Sande's album Our Version Of Events moves up from No.8 to No.4. Maroon 5's Overexposed drops two places to No.5 Singles: Wiley feat. Ms D's Heatwave and Calvin Harris ft. Example's We'll Be Coming Back are also locked in a tight chart battle, with Wiley around 2,500 sales ahead on the Wednesday Midweeks. Heatwave, produced by Rymez, features a huge pop hook from guest vocalist Ms D (who featured on Chipmunk’s chart-topping hit Oopsy Daisy), could secure the King Of Grime his first solo Number 1 in the UK. Wiley’s previous highest solo chart position came courtesy of 2008’s Wearing My Rolex, which peaked at Number 2. Florence & The Machine's Spectrum is at No.3 after two weeks on the top of the chart, with Maroon 5's Payphone at No.4 and Karmin's Brokenhearted at No.5. A total of four new entries make an appearance inside today’s Official Chart Update Top 40. Led by Wiley’s Heatwave (1) and Calvin Harris FT Example’s new offering We’ll Be Coming Back (2), the opening track from Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds album Everybody’s On The Run is on course to enter at Number 35 just as the ex-Oasis man is due to kick off his UK tour next month. Compilations: Now That's What I Call Music! 82 continues to detroy the field in the compilations market, selling over three times as many as Olympic-themed soundtrack Isles Of Wonder - which is at No.2 on the Wednesday Midweeks. Now That's What I Call A No.1 is at No.3, followed by Now That's What I Call Reggae, which drops one place to No.4. The Chillout Sessions rounds out the Official comps Top Five. =================================================== Wednesday Update Top 40 Only Source: Radio 1/OCC Top 40 Singles 1 Wiley/Rymez & Ms. D* (2,5k ahead) 2 Calvin Harris/Example* 3 Florence + The Machine 4 Maroon 5 5 Karmin 6-10 7 Underworld 11-20 19 Arctic Monkeys* 21-30 30 Frank Turner 31-40 32 Emeli Sande [AWM]* 35 Noel Gallagher* 37 Drumsound & Bassline Smith* 38 Emeli Sande [MKOL] http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/chart/update/singles/print http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/h...-1-single-1515/ =================================================== Top 40 Albums 1 Conor Maynard* (500 copies ahead) 2 Plan B 3 Delilah* 4 Emeli Sande 5 Maroon 5 6-10 6 Mike Olfield* 7 Rick Ross* 11-20 15 Lana Del Rey 18 Nicki Minaj 19 Florence + The Machine 21-30 22 One Direction 23 Katy Perry 24 Jessie J 26 Amy MacDonald 27 Frank Turner* 31-40 31 Justin Bieber 32 Olly Murs 33 Blur* 34 Testament* 40 Noel Gallagher http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/chart/update/albums/print http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/c...r-1-album-1514/

July 31, 201214 yr Author Tough one to call this week in the singles chart, Wiley is just ahead on iTunes, I wouldn't be surprised if Calvin Harris is just ahead at #1 in the official chart, (downloads + physicals), it could change later in the week if Wiley gets a good lead, hopefully sales of over 100k for the top 2. As for the albums, its between Conor and Delilah, I reckon they will occupy the top 2 albums this week, in which order I really don't know, album sales should come down with a bump after last week, probably expecting sales of 17k to 23k for a #1 album for the week. And twitter is your friend for midweeks, just type midweeks in the search option to find any mid info, feel free to search away and share in your own time.
July 31, 201214 yr If Calvin Harris ends up number 2 he will soon be the king of number 2 hits. Perhaps he should remix a Saturdays track :lol:
July 31, 201214 yr From Example's Twitter example @example Heatwave at No.1 in midweeks. WBCB at No.2. Separated by 200 sales. Gonna be a close week...
July 31, 201214 yr Personally, I think both songs are rubbish! Would rather Calvin out of the 2 though.
July 31, 201214 yr OK so it's the end. Calvin is already number 2 on ITUNES and decreasing and behind in 200 copies... so whatever, stupid nation.
July 31, 201214 yr Only 200 copies :o And Calvin getting another #2 is not surprising. The real question is how much he's going to sell. Here's his recent first week sales for comparison; Bounce feat. Kelis (66,920) Feel So Close (87,845) Let's Go feat. Ne-Yo (77,252) I think he could top the sales of FSC, as it's much higher than anything else on iTunes other than Heatwave
July 31, 201214 yr Hopefully the weather will dampen the appitite for Wiley, and Calvin/Example will overtake.
July 31, 201214 yr Conor Maynard has the number 1 Album. Conor Maynard@ConorMaynard HUGE thank you to all of you that have got the album!!! You've got it to No. 1 so far!!! If you haven't got it yet Source: http://twitter.com/ConorMaynard
July 31, 201214 yr Author Delilah will be singing and signing at Manchester at 6pm, she has just finished singing and signing at Fopp in Notts.

Ne-Yo (77,252) I think he could top the sales of FSC, as it's much higher than anything else on iTunes other than Heatwave I think both will easily sell 100k, I wouldn't even be entirely shocked if Calvin overtook before Sunday. The battle is far from over anyway, with how close it is especially! No surprise Conor is #1 on the albums, I'd hoped Delilah could be but 'Contrast On UK iTunes Now' was top trend worldwide yesterday (not that that necessarily means much but still), so I'd be a bit worried if he didn't get there when it's such low sales!
July 31, 201214 yr Delilah will be singing and signing at Manchester at 6pm, she has just finished singing and signing at Fopp in Notts. I think she'll definitely have a Top 3 debut in the bag, then. Edited July 31, 201214 yr by liamk97
July 31, 201214 yr I reckon that on Sunday's chart, Conor Maynard will be #1, Delilah will be #2, Plan B possibly #3, Rick Ross in the Top 5 and Mike Oldfield Top 10.
July 31, 201214 yr Author Delilah has just tweeted in case any members on here live around Manchester she be outside HMV (6pm), 90-100 Market Street (wherever that is) wants to go and get a signed album.
