April 19, 201313 yr I predict that Michael Buble's album will sell 111,000 copies and Fall Out Boy's album will sell 27,000 copies. I think Buble should get to about 120k. I know most new entries trail off towards the end of the week these days, but Buble is the type of act who'd probably pick up a lot of Saturday buys I think. 22k already for Fall Out Boy is pretty decent, I actually feared it wouldn't even sell that for the whole week given they were never huge album-sellers even at their peak! That should presumably be enough to hold off Sande and keep #2.
April 19, 201313 yr Alex Day 'Forever Yours' and Leeds United Team & Supporters 'Leeds, Leeds, Leeds (Marching On Together)' have gone 4-x and 10-x respectively in the last few years. Nelly Furtado's 'Maneater' also dropped out from the top 10 due to the same stupid rule as 'Crazy'. What song had the biggest fall ever (in terms of places)? Edited April 19, 201313 yr by Hilderic
April 19, 201313 yr Author Nice sales for Michael Buble, I reckon he can easily pass 120k, you can't really miss the album in Tesco, its got a stand on its lonesome with full of Michael Buble's CD albums as you walk in the store.
April 19, 201313 yr Wow I knew Buble was popular but did not expect those kind of sales right now, was thinking more 100K max!
April 19, 201313 yr Not too surprised by sales for the Top 2 albums, was expecting Michael Buble to sell 110k-120k and Fall Out Boy sell 30k+ by Sunday so it's good to see that it should be achievable.
April 19, 201313 yr Rudimental being 'over 25k ahead' seems odd, would have expected them to expand their lead by quite a lot as they have on iTunes but that implies it's decreased. Unless they're just wording it awkwardly. Wow Bublé's sales are a lot higher than I expected! Fair play to him. This album is going to be enormous. Decent sales for Fall Out Boy too and good to see them back in the singles top 40 as well.
April 19, 201313 yr Rudimental have an EP in the top 10. will.i.am does not have an EP at all. Isn't Rudimental's EP counting towards the album chart because it has too many tracks or some such silly rule?
April 19, 201313 yr Isn't Rudimental's EP counting towards the album chart because it has too many tracks or some such silly rule? Are you basing that entirely off that one speculatory post in the iTunes thread or is there actually some substance to that? :P I highly doubt that's the case.
April 19, 201313 yr Got to remember at one point Rudimental were 1.0000 on Kworb whilst Will.I.Am was around 0.7800 so if Rudimental were looking at 100k, then Will.I.Am would be looking set for 75k atm. Obviously '#thatPOWER' has tailed off a fair bit so I fully expect Rudimental to have increased its lead by the end of Saturday night. Then there's Daft Punk who could be looking around 30-40k in just 2 days which is brilliant. Adele 'Skyfall' was the last Friday release to have such an instant impact on iTunes. Well, 'White Noise' also did but it didn't enter inside the top 10.
April 19, 201313 yr Are you basing that entirely off that one speculatory post in the iTunes thread or is there actually some substance to that? :P I highly doubt that's the case. I thought that too it was discussed on Sunday,thought Rudimental would have been further ahead after their lead on iTunes!
April 20, 201313 yr Shame Jessie Ware isn't in the top 40 this week. Edited April 20, 201313 yr by Stewie
