I may have missed something here but why would 'Unconditionally' do any better than 'Walking On Air'/'Dark Horse'? (Also if it's released the same way as 'Walking On Air' it won't be chart eligible anyway).

 

I'm pleased to see AlexRange hates Lorde.

'Unconditionally' is the second single, though :P (unlike 'Dark Horse' and 'Walking on Air' x)

Has it actually had any more promotion/airplay than they did before release though?

 

(Just seen 'Prism' is out next week, thought it was still a few weeks away - disregard the thing about 'Unconditionally' being ineligible :P 'Walking On Air' should also become chart eligible but it's not selling enough to be up there now anyway).

I think she's performing it on The X Factor so it'll probably do a Firework and debut top 10.

I prefer You're Nobody 'Til Somebody Loves You (Although they're both great) and I think it's really hard to call but I think he'll probably just get the #1.
Given the lack of X Factor promotion, James Arthur could miss out; which is a real shame. Both deserve #1 though, so I'd settle for Arthur and then Lorde the following week.
Re. Bray (cos I'm too good for quotes), she's not premièred the song yet, so there's nothing to go by on airplay/promotion.

I know this is a really unpopular opinion but the Lorde song just DOESN'T sound like a Number 1 record to me. I know it's doing well on pre-orders and everything but that doesn't mean Top 2 is a foregone conclusion. (Now watch me being proved totally wrong and it spends 4 weeks at Number 1 :lol:)

 

EDIT: Just seen it's now #49 on pre-orders :o so I'm probably gonna be eating my words this time next week. I'm still surprised it's doing so well though, really hope she re-releases Tennis Court after this!

Rapid fall later today (hopefully).

 

Why would it have a rapid fall when it's been slowly gaining for weeks?

 

Lorde's *easily* gonna beat James and I think it is the lesser of two evils. Shame it's this Lorde song doing well and not Tennis Court. At least she's good sometimes unlike James who is awful. Could see him being ~#3.

Or #4 depends where One Republic drop, unless James Arthur has got physicals, and throw in Katy Perry in the mix.

 

I actually prefer Royals over Tennis Court.

Would much prefer Lorde to get the #1 over James and think she will.

 

Having heard Katy's new one, with an X Factor performance too, she'll be putting up a very good fight and could just steal it if the performance is on point.
