August 19, 201312 yr Author Midweek Charts: Britain's Got Talent stars looking for fourth week at No 1 Source: MW by Paul Willams Richard & Adam are aiming to become the first act since Adele to spend four consecutive weeks topping the UK artist albums chart, despite pressure from Rudimental. The Britain's Got Talent pair's debut Sony offering The Impossible Dream, which secured a third week at No 1 last Sundasy, has opened up a narrow lead at the top of the midweek chart with Rudimental's Home just behind, according to Official Charts Company data. If The Impossible Dream does make it four weeks at the top it will become the first album to spend that long ruling the chart in one go since Adele's XL album 21 was No 1 for five consecutive weeks between April and May 2011. Its main challenger is the Asylum/Atlantic-issued Home which spent a week at the top of the artist albums chart in May and has seen its sales lift 45% on the week following Rudimental's televised V Festival set on Sunday. Other acts part of the festival and part of the Channel 4's coverage are also in the ascendance, including Calvin Harris whose Columbia-issued 18 Months climbs 8-7 with sales up 38%, Stereophonics rising 21-10 with sales improving 72% of the Stylus/Ignition title Graffiti On The Train and Columbia artist Tom Odell moving 20-13 on the back of a 22% sales rise for Long Way Down. Close behind Rudimental is Columbia signing John Mayer's sixth studio album Paradise Valley, which is currently appearing as a new entry at 3, a place higher than his current best UK peak of 4 achieved by previous album Born And Raised in 2012. Travis's first studio album in five years - Where You Stand on their own Red Telephone Box label via Kobalt - is new at 4. Their last set Ode To J Smith was their lowest-charting album to date, reaching No 20 in 2008. Interscope/Polydor's Imagine Dragons are down 3-5 with Night Visions. Supergroup Tired Pony, led by Snow Patrol frontman Gary Lightbody, are heading for the Top 10 for the first time with their second Fiction/Polydor album The Ghost Of The Mountain presently showing up as a new entry at 6. The group's line-up also includes one-time REM star Peter Buck, Lightbody's former Snow Patrol colleague Iain Archer, who co-wrote and produced a number of tracks on Jake Bugg's eponymous Mercury album, and the same band's producer Jacknife Lee. Completing the Top 10, Nettwerk act Passenger's All The Little Lights drops 5-8 and Columbia/Tran Cressida artist Earl Sweatshirt's Doris is new at 9 in the week so far. Former Del Amitri singer Justin Currie is set for a Top 75 album as a solo act for the first time with new set Lower Reaches currently new at 24. The album, released on the Endless Shipwreck label via Ignition, is his third solo album and follows 2010's The Great War, which reached No 90. Other brand new albums on course to enter in or around the Top 40 this weekend include Peak District rock duo Drenge's self-titled Infectious set, currently ranked at No 30. Polydor signing Ellie Goulding remains narrowly ahead at No 1 on singles where she debuted last Sunday with Burn, but faces close competition from Island-signed Austrian dance duo Klangkarussell whose Sonnentanz (Sun Don't Shine) featuring Will Heard is around 4,600 sales behind as a new entry at 2. The track has already been a big hit in parts of Europe, including peaking at No 4 in Germany. There are four other brand new tracks among the Top 10 in the week so far, led at No 4 by Ministry of Sound signing DJ Fresh who is heading for a fourth Top 10 single with Earthquake Vs Diplo and featuring Dominque. Atlantic's Sean Paul is looking for his first UK Top 10 hit in his own right since She Doesn't Mind reached No 2 in 2011 with Other Side Of Love new at 7 in the latest Sales Flashes. He topped the chart earlier this year as a featured vcoalist on Polydor act the Saturdays' What About Now. Avicii's Positva/PRD-issued Wake Me Up drops 2-3 and Lana Del Rey's Polydor single Summertime Madness Vs Cedric Gervais is down a place to 5. RCA act Miley Cyrus's former No 1 We Can't Stop drops 3-6. Just ahead of the release next week of his album Hotel Cabana, Virgin act Naughty Boy will follow his chart-topping La La La with latest Emeli Sande pairing Lifted debuting inside the Top 10. It is at 8 in the midweeks, two places above Loving You, which pairs Matt Cardle and Melanie C and is released on the former X Factor champ's own Matt Cardle label via Absolute. Having debuted at No 5 last weekend, Lady Gaga's Interscope/Polydor single Applause is now in decline, dropping to 9 in the midweeks. UMRL/Universal act Tich is on course for a second Top 40 hit after Dumb with Obsession new at 35 in the midweeks, while Island Nashville act Florida Georgia Line are just outside the Top 40 at No 52 with their five-million-selling US hit Cruise featuring Nelly. The single peaked at No 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 during a lengthy and still continuing chart run. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wednesday Update Top 40 Only Source: Radio 1/OCC Top 40 Singles 1 Ellie Goulding - Burn (5k ahead) 2 Klangkarussell feat.

August 19, 201312 yr Author Midweek Charts update: Travis to deliver Kobalt third Top 10 album Source: MW by Paul Williams Travis are set to give Kobalt Label Services a third UK Top 10 album this Sunday with Where You Stand currently at No 4 on the midweeks. The album, released on Travis's Red Telephone Box label via Kobalt, is the band's first studio effort since 2008 and will restore them to the Top 10 for the first time since their last album with Independiente, The Boy With No Name, reached No 4 in 2007. Where You Stand's Top 10 entry will follow albums by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds and Pet Shop Boys, also handed by Kobalt, going Top 10 earlier this year. Push The Sky Away, issued on the group's own Bad Seed label, became the highest-charting album yet in the UK for Cave & The Bad Seeds when it reached No 3, while Pet Shop Boys' Electric - on their own X2 label - also debuted and peaked at 3, their highest position since Parlophone-issued Very became their first and only No 1 album in 1993. Travis's album is one of three brand new entries in the midweek artist albums Top 10, according to the Official Charts Company, and is joined by Columbia act John Mayer's Paradise Valley at 3 and Fiction/Polydor supergroup Tired Pony, whose members include Snow Patrol frontman Gary Lightbody and former REM guitarist Peter Buck, at 10 withThe Ghost Of The Mountain. Britain's Got Talent pair Richard & Adam are looking likely to spend a fourth week at No 1 with their Sony album The Impossible Dream, which has a narrow lead over Asylum/Atlantic act Rudimental. Their debut album Home holds at 2 with sales up 23% following their televised V Festival performance on Channel 4. The same event has also boosted the fortunes of Stereophonics' Stylus/Ignition album Graffiti On The Train, which rises 21-6 in the week to date with sales up 91%. Polydor act Ellie Goulding seems poised to secure a second week at No 1 on the singles chart with Burn as she faces competition from five brand new tracks among the week's Top 10 sellers. These are led at 2 by the Island-issued Sonnentanz (Sun Don't Shine) by Klangkarussell fetauring Will Heard, while Ministry of Sound act DJ Fresh is at 4 with Earthquake featuring Diplo and Doninque Young. Other Top 10 entries come from Atlantic's Sean Paul, Virgin's Naughty Boy with Emeli Sande and a pairing of Matt Cardle and Melanie C on the 2010 X Factor winner's own Matt Cardle via through Absolute. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Friday Update Top 40 Only Singles 1 Ellie Goulding - Burn 2 Klangkarussell feat.

August 20, 201312 yr Very interested to see how high Travis can go with their fanbase when album sales are this low.
August 20, 201312 yr I hope we have another good clear out in the top 10, I think 4 tracks will easily hit the top 10 I think Matt and Mel will be top 10 in the update tomorrow but will finish at 11/12 by Sunday! I didn't think Ellie would be able to hang on for a second week given the fact i thought Lady Gaga would be number one this week but sales will possibly be around 75-85k... Albums look dead, I can see Richard and Adam getting a 4th week but even if they dont I have a feeling sales could dip below 15k, though I do hope not!
August 20, 201312 yr Author Neil Ransome @NeilRansome 45m WOOO!! the midweeks are in, @insanityhq clients @djfreshdnb & @missyoungunique are in at NO.3 with Earthquake, keep buying people!! https://twitter.com/NeilRansome

August 20, 201312 yr Author The Reading/Leeds Festival starts this Friday, so I don't know what that is going to do to the album chart at the end of Saturday trading, not sure if Rudimental and Imagine Dragons are performing this weekend, but Kodaline are performing on Friday and they have a top 10 album at the moment. Radio 1 schedule for the weekend. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/programmes/sch...land/2013/08/23 http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/programmes/sch...land/2013/08/24 http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/programmes/sch...land/2013/08/25

Also headlining are Green Day in Reading on Friday & Leeds on Saturday on Friday and Eminem on Saturday in Reading and Sunday at Leeds. Imagine Dragons are playing the Radio 1 stage at both festivals, but can't see Rudimental listed. If Eminem is televised, then I can see him getting the biggest boost of the lot, but that would effect next week more than this week. Edited August 20, 201312 yr by gavindeejay
August 20, 201312 yr https://twitter.com/perfectsongsltd That's a fantastic start but I predict it will end up at 3 and DJ Fresh will chart at 4 on Sunday. No doubt Avicii will hold at 2 I just hope Ellie's sales are decent this week! I can see Reading effect boosts for Biffy Clyro and Imagine Dragons, maybe they could climb to number one though I fear sales are going to be low
August 20, 201312 yr Hopefully Biffy's album will re-enter at least the top 20. Eminem's 'Curtain Call - The Hits' is already top 100 ahead of his performance so expecting a big climb for that this week.
August 20, 201312 yr Klangkarussel- 2 Sean Paul-5 Dj Fresh-6 Naughty Boy-8 Matt Cardle-10 Tich-29 FGL-34
August 20, 201312 yr I do have a feeling Matt Cardle and Mel C will end up officially number 11 on Sunday which is absolutely brilliant considering how their last few releases have performed. That said, i cant deny i would be disappointed if they lose out on a top 10 hit after hitting an initial #6 peak on itunes at the start of the music purchasing week.

August 21, 201312 yr Matt Cardle and Mel C are going to end up at #11. :( I suppose that's still much more than what was predicted for this mind. Really liking it though!
August 21, 201312 yr It's the first time I've heard the song by the two MCs - and I'm liking what I'm hearing! It's nice to hear something with a guitar in the top 10!
August 21, 201312 yr Matt Cardle and Mel C are going to end up at #11. :( I suppose that's still much more than what was predicted for this mind. Really liking it though! #13 or #14 imo. :kink: Lifted is not that bad! :o
August 21, 201312 yr #13 or #14 imo. :kink: Lifted is not that bad! :o 'Lifted' is quite good too. Shame that Sean Paul had to spoil it from being three decent records in a row. It sounds so generic. A bit "meh".
