January 22, 201412 yr Good to see the song about rubbing yourself down below from Miley in the midweek Top40.
January 22, 201412 yr Good to see the song about rubbing yourself down below from Miley in the midweek Top40. As far as I was aware the song itself isn't actually about that, unless she is talking about her fingers. The song is perfect for radio (as her last 2 singles were too) but it is funny seeing it on TV, the whole 1 minute of the video they actually show (on 4music at least). The video works so much better for me as just a short piece with her looking pretty in bed and staring into mid air while in the bath.
January 23, 201412 yr I'm so impressed with how well Sophie's album has done, I never thought she'd see those heights in either chart again :o SCD massively raised her profile!
January 23, 201412 yr I too am really pleased, but it's probably barely going to outsell Make A Scene's first week. I think it could keep its #4 though (depending on if Blunty and Avicii leapfrog her from #7 and #8) which is actually hugely impressive, and if has a semi respectable chart run I'll also be majorly impressed.
January 24, 201412 yr Why? The #1 will comfortably clear 15k. So Britney Jean could have been Top 5 if Britney had released this week? :P
January 24, 201412 yr So Britney Jean could have been Top 5 if Britney had released this week? :P I don't understand how people always randomly translate sales from one week to another assuming it would sell the exact same amount. Britney would have sold even less in January than she did in the last quarter of the year. That's why it often makes more sense to compare positions and chart runs over sales.
January 24, 201412 yr Midweek Charts update: Clean Bandit single surpasses 100,000 first-week sales Source: MW by Paul Williams Clean Bandit's Rather Be has broken through 100,000 UK sales this week as it heads to No 1 on the singles chart. The Atlantic single featuring Jess Glynne reached around 125,000 sales up to the end of business on Thursday, according to the Official Charts Company, 75% ahead of EMI act The Vamps' newly-issued Wild Heart at No 2. A third UK act is set to debut in the top five this weekend with RCA's Neon Jungle new at 4 in the week so far with Braveheat as Pharrell Williams' Happy drops 1-3 and fellow RCA release Timber by Pitbull featuring Kesha slides 2-5. Polydor's Ellie Goulding is likely to return to No 1 on the artist albums chart with Halycon climbing back up a place to the top in the latest midweeks as Columbia act Bruce Springsteen's High Hopes falls to No 2. Beyonce's self-titled RCA-handlled holds at 3 ahead of new albums from Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Warpaint. Ellis-Bextor's Wanderlust on her own EBGB's label is new at 4 and is set to return her to the chart's Top 10 for the first time since 2007, while Warpaint's self-titled Rough Trade album is new at 5. Like Warpaint, Mogwai are heading to the Top 10 for the first time and complete a trio of newly-issued indie releases at the top table. Rave Tapes on their Rock Action label is new at 7 in the latest Sales Flashes. Below them, James Blunt is aiming to move back into the Top 10 after appearing on Jonathan Ross's ITV show last Saturday with sales of his Atlantic/Custard-issued Moon Landing doubling to propel it 23-9. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Friday Update Top 40 Only 1 Clean Bandit feat.

January 24, 201412 yr If we're to believe the sales total for The Vamps in that post, it appears they've decreased in sales since the Wednesday update :P!

January 24, 201412 yr Surprised to see The Vamps still holding! Sophie should keep her #4 position then. Brilliant! :D
January 24, 201412 yr Looks like we're going to have a new track taking the title of fastest selling track of 2014!! Hopefully 160/170k by Sunday!! Hoping the Vamps fall behind Pharrell by Sunday and Vance Joy will just scrape into the top 10, at either 9 or 10.

January 24, 201412 yr Did someone say that Clean Bandit are on course to have the biggest first week sales for a January release since 1996? I'm assuming that's Babylon Zoo. How many do they have to sell to have that record (Biggest since 1996 I mean - obv they can't beat Babylon Zoo's total). Thanks!
