Is there any chance Susan Boyle will rise in album chart?

 

Sold loads of her album today at work far more than at the start of the week - Her fanbase is not one that rush out on the day of release to buy so if sales are strong over the weekend then I could see her climbing to #4 potentially - Can't see her overtaking Rihanna, LZ an 1D though.

Susan Boyle's last album was #2 in the first mids IIRC before rising to #1, she's one of those few acts whose sales are 'backloaded' in the first week :P I think she will overtake Little Mix at least by Sunday, although Michael Bublé is the same so he might overtake Susan.
Am I dreaming thinking that Rihanna can sell the same that she has sold so far in 2 days in the last 4 days of the week???? That would make her go to 120K

I hope Little Mix can get an official Top 5 album come Friday. It's their debut and IMO it's quite strong too, should really be given a chance :(.

 

Are LM's physicals selling well by any chance?

I expect Robbie's album to climb from it's midweek position as it's currently being promoted on 'O2 Priority Moments' for half price in HMV for O2 customers - Making the standard version £5 and the Deluxe £7.50 - Sold loads today and I'm sure other stores would be the same, The same offer is running for several weeks with a new album half price each week.

If Girls Aloud would be # 2, it's their fifth # 2. Same number # 2 hits with Steps.

Record holder Kylie Minogue has 10 # 2 singles in UK.

What about another samples ?

Although I think she is second to Madonna for most weeks at #2. Kylie was quite unfortunate to have so many #2's at the beginning of her career (well, lot's of Top 2's is obviously nothing bad, but you know what I mean! :P).

Rob has six #2.

Sash! has 5 #2s with no #1, as often repeated here :P

 

Justin Timberlake has 6 #2s (four as lead artist and two as a feature) plus another as a member of *NSYNC, 'SexyBack' being his only #1. EDIT: Only #1 as a lead artist anyway :P As pointed out by Silver Rocket he has 2 #1s as a featured artist as well.

 

Rihanna has 7 #2s but also 7 #1s!

Does '4 Minutes' count if you're including features? Also 'Give It To Me'?

Oh yes, of course :P Somehow didn't occur to me that he had #1s as a feature as well as #2s.

I can't see Girls Aloud getting to #2 now anyways, probably 3 or 4 :/
Girls Aloud are no8 on itunes. I suspect they will be lucky to come top3 still by sunday.

 

Elvis Presley has had 17 No.2 Hits, with 27 Weeks at No.2, between them.

 

Madonna has had 12 No.2 Hits, with 13 Weeks at No.2 between them.

 

Cliff Richard has had 11 No.2 Hits - 23 Weeks at No.2.

 

Kylie has had 11 No.2 Hits - 20 Weeks at No.2.

 

Rihanna's 7 No.2 Hits have spent 14 Weeks at No.2.

 

Pat Boone 'only' had 4 No.2 Hits, but they spent 17 Weeks at No.2.

The 4th most Weeks, for an Act's No.2 Hits. Rihanna is 5th.

Girls Aloud are no8 on itunes. I suspect they will be lucky to come top3 still by sunday.

 

I think Girls Aloud have got #2 guaranteed purely from the big sales from Sunday (usually the biggest day for sales which might explain why iTunes reverts so many times throughout the day) plus the EP was #1 on iTunes album chart. That just means they'll have a sharp drop down the chart next week. Possibly similar to Justin Bieber 'Boyfriend'.
