August 15, 200619 yr It's official Shakira is #1 with just 400k in front of David Guetta I think you mean 400, not 400k ;) :lol:
August 15, 200619 yr Oh Slick you beat me to it! :lol: Well I thought I should say something, that's some impressive sales :lol:
August 15, 200619 yr Source: Music Week Shakira and Wyclef Jean have a battle on their hands to retain the number one spot this week, with a host of new singles threatening the top spot, according to early retail reports. David Guetta vs the Egg (Gusto) is leading the charge, closely followed by Arctic Monkeys’ Leave Before the Lights Come On (Domino), Chamillionaire feat. Krayzie Bone’s Ridin’ (Universal) and Cassie’s Me & U (Bad Boy). The fifth likely newcomer to the Top Ten is Micky Modelle V Jessy’s Dancing In The Dark (All Around The World). In contention for a Top 20 appearance are Iron Maiden (EMI), Alesha and Ronan Keating (both Polydor). With the singles market currently witnessing a 20% week-on-week sales increase, a raft of other acts including Maria Lawson (Phonoegenic), The Young Knives (Trangressive), The Sunshine Underground (City Rockers) and The Futureheads (679) are poised to enter the chart, although Chico’s DISCO looks unlikely to follow its predecessor It’s Chico Time to number one after sales flashes revealed it is languishing outside the Top 40. In the albums market, Christina Aguilera’s Back to Basics (RCA) is in line to become her first chart topping album after selling almost twice the amount of albums as the current number one James Morrison since its release yesterday. Other likely new entries in the album chart come from Captain (EMI), Lambchop (City Slang), the Mamas And The Papas (UMTV) and Peter Bjorn And John (Wichita), while Shayne Ward and Andy Abraham’s albums are both experiencing huge sales increases thanks to the TV exposure given to the X-Factor contestants over the weekend. =================================================================== Singles 01 Shakira feat.

August 15, 200619 yr Author I think you mean 400, not 400k ;) :lol: oops sorry about 400 copies ahead, I'm trying to do things very quickly :lol:
August 15, 200619 yr Cant believe shakira is still leading the way, let's hope david guetta's sales pick up thru the week and depose her. Arctic monkeys have no chance.
August 15, 200619 yr Not looking good for Alesha Dixon is it? Unless it's charting on downloads only. Nope proper physical release. ;) YAY FOR CHRISTINA!!!! :yahoo: :cheer: :dance: :wub: :heart: Oh and HA at Nicky since the Arctics have no chance. :smoke: Also, HURRAH at Cassie, Chamillionaire and Alesha.
August 15, 200619 yr Yay Christina, stripped never got top spot did it? Peaked at #2, but was a million seller. ;)
August 15, 200619 yr Nope proper physical release. ;) Ah well, after all the hype another ex-pop act member has a flop solo career. Pleased that Droning Keating's version of Iris isn't top ten. It'll probably chart higher than the original which didn't even make the top 20 over here, but it is still rightly regarded as a classic. Ronan's version is awful.
August 15, 200619 yr ffs <_< "Oh it's in an advert lets buy it" :rolleyes: and who keeps buying Shakira? :wacko: VERY disappointed by the singles :( pleased with the albums :wub:
August 15, 200619 yr FFS, I'm well annoyed at Alesha Dixon not being top 10, I had high hopes for that! :( I knew Chico would flop, but not that badly. :lol: I can't See David Guetta/The Egg being #1 somehow. And YAY for Christina in the albums!
August 15, 200619 yr I also have to say, hahahaha for Ronan Keating finally getting his comeuppance and missing the top 10. Let's hope this is a turning point for him now.
August 15, 200619 yr Alywags Alesha is at 17. :( Find comfort that Paris has dropped 10 places though.
August 15, 200619 yr Alywags Alesha is at 17. :( Find comfort that Paris has dropped 10 places though. Christ, the public really are idiots. :wacko: But yes, that is a great comfort. The even bigger comfort will be watching her album bomb.
August 15, 200619 yr No it was released yesterday, I got a feeling it might climb. And its Alesha Harvey now. :P
