Britney is already #16 in the US after only two hours on iTunes. Good sign for the UK?

I don't think so. Britney is a lot more popular over there than she is here. If you need any proof look at the chart runs of Till The World Ends for UK and US.

Any sign of Wrecking Ball today?

A quick look on iTunes suggest no. They should release it asap though while the hype around it is still there.

Eminem's people should read that and take note :huh:

Demi should swap places with that horrible Avicii song. And then with Jason DeRulo!

 

Churches should swap with Jason Derulo...and even then it would still be too high up the chart, awful record!

It seems to be back now - I guess the cheque just arrived in today's post... :lol:

The Wanted now up to 16...maybe if they had more promo and not gone for OAOS they could have had another top 5!

 

I love the new Birdy track, heard it on Radio 1 yesterday and loved it so I'm happy she's top 20 even though I'm not a fan of her previous records!

 

Christina Perri needs to go away now...I'm sick of this and other old tracks keep entering the chart at the expense of new music and artists

ugh... CHVRCHES down to #49, would have been a bit more higher if it wasn't for a few old tracks above it.

I'm just amazed that Radio *One* played it at all!

Blame Cowell. :)

 

I don't mind old tracks re-entering. IMO if a new track isn't good enough to beat something several years old, it doesn't *deserve* to chart in the first place...

Even though they were the ones which helped to start Skinny Love's numerous runs in the chart?

Wings is easily the best thing she's done, so much better than the vastly overplayed Skinny Love!

 

I take it reason for The Wanted's climb is it being used on the X Factor?

I believe someone was unlucky enough to have it performed by them on Surprise Surprise last night.

Surprise Surprise! It was crap though, young girls have been downloading in their minions ;)

It is surprising that they play her though. She's more adult contemporary than Michael Buble! :lol: I reckon Radio 1 play her because she's so young + from the UK.

Im not a Wanted fan but i do like we own the night and i am kind of happy to see it climbing as it was falling down the charts at a rapid rate.

I think we all know by now that the charts don't operate on the basis of something being "good enough". It's all about hype, promotion etc...

Britney's new song will be up for Pre orders from tomorrow in the Uk and will be available at November 4th.

Nov 4th!!! so long the record labels just aren't getting it ppl will not wait months to buy a song they can listen to on youtube, watch on tv, hear on the radio and songs that are available for weeks in dozens of other countries they will just download them illegally because there is no alterantive but to wait for weeks. labels need to wake up and release all singles worldwide at the same time
