March 20, 201313 yr Like the song says, "been a long time coming". Of course it's appropriate this is the song that makes it happen for them.
March 20, 201313 yr I can't see them losing the #1 spot now... I actually think it's impossible. I don't want to sound too morbid, but it's not strictly impossible if something tragic happens...
March 20, 201313 yr I don't want to sound too morbid, but it's not strictly impossible if something tragic happens... Maybe if Flo Rida... [/kobbarmode]
March 20, 201313 yr does the chart update ever give boosts to songs in the top 40 but hasn't had airplay? I ask because I think Paramore's new song is sooo good and I want it to do well, should be in the top 40 surely?
March 20, 201313 yr Maybe if Flo Rida... [/kobbarmode] I would say I could see the slightly funny side but the PC brigade on here would rip me to pieces. :ph34r:
March 20, 201313 yr Author The Saturdays should release singles more often :lol: already on 6 pages this week, on a normal week 5 pages are maximum. HA I've added the top 2 for today, since we already know to the update.
March 20, 201313 yr Author Midweek Charts: Timberlake has 20/20 vision for top spot Source: MW by Paul Willams Justin Timberlake's The 20/20 Experience is outselling its nearest rival in the UK by nearly four copies to one as it shapes up to become his third chart-topping solo album. The album has already reached nearly 60,000 copies so far this week, according to the Official Charts Company, with fellow RCA release The Next Day by David Bowie heavily behind it in second place with around 15,000 sales achieved. Timberlake previously topped the chart in 2002 with first solo set Justified and then in 2006 with follow-up Future Sex/Love Sounds, the latter selling more than 90,000 copies in its first week. Bowie, who last Sunday achieved his first chart-topping UK album in nearly 20 years, sees sales of The Next Day drop 78% on the week, while Polydor's Les Miserables soundtrack makes a similar gain to lift it 10-3 on the midweeks. Emeli Sande's Our Version Of Events drops 3-4 and fellow Virgin album Bad Blood by Bastille falls 4-5, while there is a one-place decline to 5 for Atlantic signing Bruno Mars' Unorthodox Jukebox. Two other brand nes albums join The 20/20 Experience among the Top 10 sellers at this stage of the week with Sude's Bloodsports at 7 and Billy Bragg's Tooth & Nail at 9. Both albums look likely to deliver significantly better first-week chart positions compared to their predecessors. Suede's album, on their own Suede label, is their sixth studio set in total and first since 2002's Columbia-issued A New Morning, which peaked at 24 - the previous four albums had delivered a trio of No 1s and a No 3 peak. Bragg's Tooth & Nail on Cooking Vinyl follows Mr Love & Justice, which made it to 33 in 2008. Completing the Top 10 at this stage of the week, Stereophonics' Graffiti On The Train on Stylus/Ignition drops 6-8, while RCA act Pink's The Truth About Love falls 8-10. Another nine brand new albums presently register among the week's 40 top sellers, led at 13 by 4AD act Daughter's debut set If You Leave and at 16 by Hadouken's third album and first away from Atlantic, Every Weekend, which is released on the Surface Noise label. Other new arrivals come from V2's Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Island's Woodkid, Double Six's Steve Mason, Blurose's Alex Day, Sub Pop's Low, the Weathermaker label's Clutch and Marti Pellow on the BK label. The Saturdays are virtual certainties to score their first ever UK No 1 single on Sunday with the Polydor-issued What About Us featuring Sean Paul selling more than twice as many copies as RCA act Justin Timberlake's Mirrors in second place. The Saturdays' current UK peak is 2, achieved by their Comic Relief Depeche Mode cover Just Can't Get Enough and by Forever Is Over, both in 2009. What About Us has led attempts by The Saturdays this year to break the States where they are subject to a reality TV show on E! called Chasing The Saturdays and have made a string of TV appearances, including on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Chelsea Lately. Timberlake's drop from 1-2 comes despite sales of Mirrors rising 16% week-on-week, while sales of Pink's RCA single Just Give Me A Reason featuring fun's Nate Ruess are up 12% as it holds at 3. Bruno Mars' Atlantic track When I Was Your Man remains at 4 and the Virgin-issued Pompeii by Bastille at 5, while One Direction's Syco single One Way Or Another (Teenage Kicks) drops 2-6 after having a late surge last week thanks to the group's Comic Relief appearance on BBC One. Macklemore & Ryan Lewis's Thrift Shop featuring Wanz on the Macklemore label holds at 7, while Hollywood/Polydor act Bridgit Mendler's Ready Or Not continues at 8. The Island/PMR-issued White Noise by Disclosure featuring AlunaGeorge progresses 10-9 to swap places with Avicii Vs Nicky Romero's Positiva/Virgin single I Could Be The One. Outside the Top 10 there are new entries from B-Unique/RCA's Kodaline, Boom Ting's Jakwob featuring Maiday, Bannatyne Music's Reconnected and EMI's 30 Seconds To Mars.

March 20, 201313 yr How much do we think The Sats could sell this week in total? Keep in mind they have Loose Women tomorrow and Alan Carr on Friday. I think they'll be around the 100K mark but One Direction's record should be safe.
March 20, 201313 yr Truly impressive sales by The Saturdays and what a lead they have, number 1 is a cert for them now. It was a long time coming but they look likely to do it in style.
March 20, 201313 yr They can sell 9k today, 9k tomorrow, 13k on Friday because the sales go up and they have Alan Carr, finally 15k on Saturday, one of the biggest day for sale. It would get them on 111k.... I only need them to do 107-108k to be honest, so take 3k somewhere if you think I've been to generous.

I can't see them selling 10K on Friday and 15K on Saturday, unless they have a BIG boost from Alan Carr.
March 20, 201313 yr #7 is a great start in the album chart for Suede. They should almost definitely outpeak "A New Morning", but I really hope they stay in the top 10.
March 20, 201313 yr Is there chart data missing? Jakwob & Reconnected are both top 40, despite not being there on iTunes so far.

That's a bit too high for the weekend, we should get a clear picture of the sales with our Friday update. Hopefully. Also Alan Carr is not prime time TV
