18 Pharrell Williams - Happy

 

It's climbing VERY fast in the past week... anyone knows y?

 

I have no idea... It isn't a new song at all, I heard it MONTHS ago in the summer iirc. I think it's part of a soundtrack for a movie, so maybe the film it's in has just come out.

 

Despicable Me 2 was released on DVD this week

 

plus the video (posted earlier) was released last week so I assume has been getting TV airplay

You can see the top 1500 (well quite often the Top 1498) on Live Pop Bars. That track is just inside the top 1000

Any reason why What Now has risen loads recently? Very pleased that this is another hit for year.

I think it's just because the video is being played lots (something that wasn't done for the previous two singles as they were inappropriate or non-existent).

How is Darlene Love doing this Xmas? OVerlooked motown Xmas classic!

 

So how is Leona doing, is One More Sleep really shaping up to be a Christmas classic and a possible no.1 or is that just fan chatter?

 

Lady GaGa slaying all your faves :wub: coming for all wigs and weaves!

 

Boo at 1Diretion inexplicably at no.1! Ivor Novella coming their way or what...

How is Darlene Love doing this Xmas? OVerlooked motown Xmas classic!

371. Darlene Love - All Alone On Christmas

 

Is lady gaga still at 8, her chatty man performace hasnt done much.

That is not how it works though. Impulse buys are impulsive. That Sunday I might have that extra £10 in my bank to spare that I don't have next time I'm shopping. Or I'm in a rush next time, or the moment has passed and I don't really want the album any more.

This is just so illogical.

 

On average you will get the same number of impulse buys regardless of the weekend of an album's release. They are all just coincidental. Stocking it on Monday just means the album's "supermarket week" is Monday-Sunday, shifted a day later, instead of Sunday-Saturday (which is what the official chart measures). The only argument to be made is that one weekend might be "preferable" to another for the album to be higher on the shelf.

I couldn't agree more 'All Alone On Christmas' is brillaint :wub:

She may still be at 8 but she's gone from 51% to 64%. The gap between 10-7 was huge, I didn't expect her to make that, but she's now closing in. I don't imagine she'll go much higher, but it's had a great boost and should keep it going for a little while now.

But when you think #1 this week will probably be doing 60k max then increasing by 13% for a couple of days probably barely adds up to an extra thousand sales.

I don't expect it to do anything, but would love to be wrong. I got it when it was free on iTunes when her album came out, and I've been particularly enjoying it :)

"Hey Brother" up to 0.9 already, woah. Could be a contender for #1 next week, video is getting a release soon too. What an album for Avicii!

X Factor Effect:

 

112. Beyoncé - If I Were a Boy (Glee Cast version also at #1418)

139. Beyoncé - Halo

144. Anne Dudley, Elton John & Orchestra - Something About the Way You Look Tonight (Just Elton John versions also at #188 & #585)

150. Elton John - Candle In the Wind (Also at #321)

192. Beyoncé - Best Thing I Never Had

216. Elton John - Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word (Duet version with Blue also at #721)

269. Destiny's Child - Survivor (Also at #323)

355. Elton John - Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me (Duet version with George Michael also at #384)

 

 

NEW THREAD.

 

And we can then finally forget this Bieber weekly release nonsense until he does it again before his next album.
