October 1, 201312 yr Wait.. How do they know the midweek results The midweek charts are still compiled on Tuesday although they are no longer published by Music Week. People within the industry (record companies for example) still get the information.
October 1, 201312 yr God that REEKS of desperation! To be fair 1 tweet doesn't reek of desperation considering the have 10 versions of their single available!
October 1, 201312 yr Looks like Avicii should hit the million sales by Sunday. If he does, and Daft Punk's 'Get lucky' holds on... Along with Robin Thicke we'll have 3 million selling singles in the Top 40 (all on their original chart runs) at the same time. Anyone know the last time this happened?...I can't think. One Republic pinching No.1 this week would be amazing!!! :dance: Always assume with these kind of questions that late 1997 is the answer! :D Barbie Girl, Perfect Day, and Candle In The Wind 97 had all crossed the million mark before the end of 1997 and were in the top 10 at the same time Cheers for that Gezza! :D
October 2, 201312 yr Midweek Charts: Timberlake and Haim neck and neck for No 1 Source: MW by Paul Williams Justin Timberlake and Haim are in a close battle to top the UK artist albums chart with just 700 sales currently separating them. Timberlake's newly-issued RCA set The 20/20 Experience 2 Of 2 is ahead, but is being heavily pushed by LA band Haim's debut Polydor album Days Are Gone, which is showing up as a new entry at No 2, according to the Official Charts Company. The new Timberlake album comes just six months after its predecessor The 20/20 Experience debuted at No 1 with 105,894 first-week sales and has sold around 320,000 copies to date in the UK, while there was a gap of six years and six months between that and his previous album FutureSex/LoveSounds. Outside the 10, The 20/20 Experience - The Complete, which brings the two "Experience" albums together, registers as a new entry at 17 as the first album in the series drops a place to No 40. Orlando band Alter Bridge could be heading for their highest-charting album yet in the UK with the Roadrunner-issued Fortress presently appearing as a new entry at No 4. Their current UK peak of 9 was achieved by their last studio set AB III in 2010. There are two other brand new albums among the Top 10 sellers at this stage of the week with Dizzee Rascal's new Dirtee Skank/Island set The Fifth at No 9 and the EMI/Virgin EMI-issued Torus by Sub Focus at No 10. The Fifth is appropriately Dizzee Rascal's fifth studio album with his last three releases all having made the Top 10, including the last one Tongue N' Cheek, which came out in 2009 and made it to No 3. The new album's arrival comes as his new single Something Really Bad with will.i.am shows up as a new entry at 10 on the midweek singles chart. UK electronic music producer and artist Nick Douwama aka Sub Focus will achieve his highest-ranked album yet in the UK with Torus, which is his debut Universal effort and follows the No 51 placing of a self-titled release on Ram Records in 2009. Kings Of Leon topped the chart last Sunday with the Columbia-handled Mechanical Bull but now drop to 3 in the midweeks, while Arctic Monkeys' former chart-topper AM looks likely to retain its top five status with the Domino set easing 4-5 in the week so far. Drake's Cash Money/Republic album Nothing But The Same is now down to 6 after debuting at 2 last weekend, while Jessie J's Lava/Republic set Alive slips to 7 after starting last week at No 7. Meanwhile, London Grammar's Metal & Dust/Ministry of Sound album If You Wait drops a place to 8. The first week of Q4 brings a wealth of new entries into the listings with the four new entries in the Top 10 so far joined by nine more brand new albums between positions 11 and 40. They include The Frantic Four Reunion 2013, a Universal-issued Status Quo live album showing up on the Abbey Road label and bringing together again the band's classic 1970 to 1976 line-up. Other new albums cropping up are Moby's Innocents on his own Little Idiot label, Vertigo/Virgin EMI's Metallica with the soundtrack to Through The Years and sets from Transmission's Kids In Glass Houses, Napalm's The Answer, Hopeless's All Time Low, Trangressive's Johny Flynn and Turin Brakes with a first abum on Cooking Vinyl. UK indie pop four-piece The Vamps, who have supported the likes of Little Mix, McFly and The Wanted on tour, look like scoring an instant No 1 single with Can We Dance leading the midweeks. The EMI/Virgin EMI track is around 13,000 sales ahead currently of Interscope/Polydor act OneRepublic's Counting Stars, which climbs 3-2, while Warner Bros's Jason Derulo drops from No 1 to 3 with Talk Dirty featuring 2 Chainz. Virgin-signed Katy Perry's own former No 1 Roar drops 2-4, while Chase & Status are new at 5 with the EMI-issued Count On Me featuring Moko. The track is taken from the duo's forthcoming new album Brand New Machine, out next Monday (October 7). Hollywood/Polydor act Demi Lovato's Skyscraper, which received a big boost at retail last week after being covered by X Factor contestant Hannah Sheares, continues its ascent with weekly sales up 237% to move it 13-6. Meanwhile, Jason Mraz's Atlantic-issued I Won't Give Up, which reached No 11 last year, is a re-entry at 12 in the midweeks afetr being performed by 16-year-old Giles Potter on the ITV programme. Back in the Top 10 and Avicii's Postiva/PRMD single You Make Me falls 5-7 and Drake's Cash Money/Republic-issued Hold On We're Going Home featuring Majid Jordan is down 4-8. Macklemore & Ryan Lewis's Same Love on the Mackelmore label and featuring Mary Lambert is down 6-9 as Dizzee Rascal's new single completes the Top 10. A new Republic/Island single Get Like Me combining Nelly, Nicki Minaj and Pharrell Williams is new at 16 in the week so far, while X Factor 2012 contestant Lucy Spraggan's Last Night (Beer Fear), which reached No 11 last year after being self-released, is back at No 19 after her new label Columbia re-issued it. Two Door Cinema Club register at No 24 with their first Parlophone release Changing Of the Seasons after leaving indie Kistune, while there are also midweek Top 40 new entries for 3 Beat/AATW's Fuse ODG (featuring Elephant Man) and RCA's Maxsta (featuring Little Nikki).

October 2, 201312 yr Two Door Cinema Club should make the top 40 for the first time then. Groovy Bangor biscuits.
October 2, 201312 yr Excellent to see AM hold on in the top 5 ahead of Jessie and Drake. Be nice to see it remain at 4 come Sunday. Also good to see TDCC so high. A shame it couldn't happen 3 years ago with much superior material but 'Changing...' is at least better than almost all of their second album.
October 2, 201312 yr Two Door Cinema Club should make the top 40 for the first time then. Groovy Bangor biscuits. Of course Alex Trimble made the Top 20 with Underworld in 2012 with "Caliban's Dream" on which he features prominently, but I guess it proves that something good can work... ! :D
October 2, 201312 yr Excellent to see Two Door Cinema Club in the Top 25 this week. :D It should cling on into the Top 40 come Sunday :cheer:
October 2, 201312 yr WTF also @ Two Door Cinema Club :o was not expecting Top 40, let alone Top 25! Guess that must be EP sales helping or something?
October 2, 201312 yr Author Vamps #1 :o errr.... iTunes data missing surely. :unsure: Have they actually got any physicals :unsure: Just answered my own question... yes http://www.amazon.co.uk/Can-We-Dance-Vamps...ps+can+we+dance
October 2, 201312 yr Oh wow was not expecting that lead for The Vamps. Easily my favourite of the front-runners especially over 1Rep so yayy get that #1 <3
October 2, 201312 yr Should be a close number one this week! Vamps aren't particularly high on downloads so their lead should be decreasing - their physical sales must have helped them massively!
