28. Matrix and futurebound- Don't Look Back

 

Told y'all not to write them off just yet ~

I'd really love to think MAGIC! could challenge Cheryl for #1 as 'Rude' is likely to be one of the big hits of the year while 'Crazy Stupid Love'... isn't (plus 'Rude' is the better song by far) but realistically their only chance of #1 is if they can climb up in their 2nd week, Cheryl will probably still be untouchable in that first week even with MAGIC! now beating her on pre-orders.

 

Well I think they can based on these quick figures I've worked out. Obviously I'm generalising a lot with these figures by assuming every single sale is from iTunes but it gives us a good indication by using the sales figures from the last all-sales chart.

 

By using the last chart compiled just on sales, the #60 got around 3,000 sales. Cheryl has been around the #60 point for nearly the entirety of her pre-order run which has been for around 5 weeks. That gives her 15,000 pre-order sales (based on this generalisation). The pre-order will probably stay around #60 again this week, and rise to around #40 on the final week of pre-order which would add another 3,000 and 4,500 pre-orders respectively based on the aforementioned chart that I'm using. This would mean total pre-order sales of 22,500.

 

Now when analysing MAGIC!'s pre-orders, so far they've managed a week generally around #75 which based on the chart sales would give them around 2,500 pre-orders. If they get to around #40 this week and then #25 on their final week that would give them 4,000 and 10,000 pre-orders respectively giving them a total of 16,500.

 

This would suggest Cheryl has a lead of 6,000 pre-orders, then if you take into account the fact that MAGIC! are still gaining momentum and airplay whereas Cheryl does not have that similar momentum due to the long build-up as well as the fact that MAGIC! are more likely to have a streaming advantage - MAGIC! will be less front-loaded with their sales and could easily close that pre-order gap.

 

Once again I know that 100% of sales are not from iTunes and this is a massive generalisation of what has happened and will happen, but it gives us a good idea that Cheryl's pre-order lead will not be as unbeatable as many of us think. Hope that has made some sort of sense!

 

 

I think if Magic continues to increase in popularity over the next two weeks the way he is now, he might even land with a decent lead over Cheryl by the end of the week. Cheryl will still have overall more pre-orders, but Rude will have a good amount too, and will be more popular on the actual release week. I really want Cheryl to release this week for a #!

My little brother wants to know what the top selling songs of July 2013 - July 2014 are/were for something he's doing at school in music classes. Would any sales guru's be able to help with this?

61. Demi Lovato - Really Don't Care (feat. Cher Lloyd)

Weird that Matrix & Futurebound's songs always take a few days/weeks to take off :lol:

877. T.I. - No Mediocre (feat. Iggy Azalea) - Pre-order

 

It's a wonder Will.i.Am ever finds time to eat or sleep, with all the music he records... :P

 

Maybe he makes the music instead of raving and repeating instead?

Lorde - Everybody Wants To Rule The World was just played at the end of the World Cup Football tonight. :D

877. T.I. - No Mediocre (feat. Iggy Azalea) - Pre-order

 

This needs to slay.

 

(not for Iggy Iggy, but for T.I <3)

Maybe he makes the music instead of raving and repeating instead?

 

When did I accuse him of that? :mellow:

Hopefully Nicole manages to remain ahead for the rest of the week. It's jus my frustrating how huge your love could have been had capital backed it earlier and radio 1 supported it. I'm sure Nicole will manage to get another top 5 which could encourage radio to back her next single.
