The Saturdays 'Living For The Weekend' pre-order smashing at #111.

 

* This is another awkward 5 track EP. Orchestral Manouvres In The Dark's 'Night Café' EP at #146 has 6 unique tracks plus a few remixes of 'Night Café' so that may possibly be counted as an album.

LivePopBars isn't working for me, but this week's album chart should be very interesting indeed - Jessie J vs. Kings of Leon? Hard to decide really since Jessie J has continued to be successful this year whilst Kings of Leon haven't really had a hit single yet have a big fan base and are known to have big first weeks sales in the albums.

 

Other potential Top 10 entries are Birdy, CHVRCHES, Drake and Jason Derulo.

KOL have the #1 easily this week and I'm hoping Drake might be able to challenge Jessie for #2. Realistically he'll probably have to settle for #3 at best but he's been doing REALLY well on pre-orders (top 10 ever since release I think).

"It's My Party" slightly outperforming expectations makes me think this won't be a complete walkover but KoL will still probably have this by 50%. I'd guess 90k to 60k, with Drake closer to 40.

Is the Drake album definitely coming out this week? I've seen some claims it's been put back.

1. Drake - Nothing Was the Same

Forget KOL, this week's #1 is clearly going to MATT REDMAN. Bow down.

 

On a serious note though really hope CHVRCHES can challenge for a top 10 although top 20 is probably more likely. I know that 'And I'll Scratch Yours' album will be chart ineligible but I wonder what they'll do with the one packaged as a second disc of 'Scratch My Back'?

Kings Of Leon are probably number one on itunes when you combine the album sales if they're number 2 and 6. Probably 8 new albums challenging for top ten positions on next weeks album charts

Looks like another 5 to 6 new albums inside the top 10 this week, another clearout.

Kings of Leon and Jessie J will probably be ahead of Drake overall - #2/#15 and #4 respectively on Amazon whilst Drake is #22 and #31.

29. Union J - Union J [Pre-Order]

Kings Of Leon are probably number one on itunes when you combine the album sales if they're number 2 and 6. Probably 8 new albums challenging for top ten positions on next weeks album charts

 

I was astonished too that KoL aren't #1, though rock tends to sell far better physically than urban, so they should be comfortably #1 overall.

32. 2 Real - Depzman

I remember seeing this in the chart briefly a few months ago and was wondering why it's been back the last couple of days - just Googled it and discovered he was murdered a few days ago :mellow: Only aged 18. R.I.P.

I've heard about this, truly horrible. :( BBC's Newsbeat announced he was #1 on the iTunes Hip-Hop Chart a day or two ago.

82. Depzman - 2 Real

I've seen him in real a few times since he lived near to me. There was a mosque down my road which some people from Invasion Alert would hang out by a lot, and I see their graffiti everywhere I go. :lol:

 

It's very tragic what happened.
