Why did you make me just do maths?

 

Either way, smash etc.

 

That's how all chart requests used to be answered, just thought I'd be retro and bring that back for a sec.

 

(#27 for anyone that doesn't feel like adding up all the 1s)

Was expecting to see UJ higher with multiple versions, pre orders, physicals etc, - Would be great for them to get their first Top 5 but streaming will hammer them.

It is at #1... +1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1

 

 

HA HA :lol:

 

===

 

Anyway on a different note Royal Blood must have 5% physicals, as the tally don't match ;)

Union J - 16% must be their physicals, as they have no streams.

Can I ask where is Cheryl please?

should mean a second top 40 week for the saturdays then.

In the lav :( or she could behind the wardrobe, or under your bed, or waiting for the #17 bus. :unsure:

I hope No Mediocre manages to stay top 40 officially :cry: and top 20 for Black Widow would be very nice too.

OUCH, that is a drop and a half,

According to UJ on twitter they're at Number 2 in the mids... Which goes against the sales info - unless it's just wishful thinking on their part

It is at #1... +1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1

 

That was cruel. :lol:

I was expecting them to be 2/3 in today's midweeks, regardless of the fact they have no chance of staying there whatsoever.

Agreed especially with streaming, I think they're going to need to be lucky to stay top 10 tbh

I thought Callabro might be above Ed, but didn't expect the Courteeners to be, too. :blink:

Streaming might cost her, she'll definitely get to #1 on itunes and hopefully hold it but annoyingly Shake It Off isn't on Spotify yet :/ and even if it was, streaming takes time to build up. They've handled everything else so well with this release though so it'll be added today fingers crossed!

 

It probably won't be added for a while as I'm sure I remember reading recently that Taylor isn't a fan of streaming, so maybe it's her choice not to put it on Spotify for the moment.

 

I've just found the article here where she says that she thinks streaming (amongst other things) is affecting "paid album sales".

I thought she would at least put the single on spotify though to help it get a high chart peak. I think it'll be put up soon anyway

 

With the Red era WANEGBT was put up as a single, then the rest of the album was added months after it was released and sold lots. I assume this will happen with 1989 too

12k for The Courteeners already? That's impressive because a) I didn't realise they even had an album out, and b) I don't even think their last album sold that much over the entire week (unless I'm very much mistaken).

also, yay for Twin Atlantic at #4 in the mids. It's a horrible album, but I'm glad to see it doing relatively well.

Taylor will probably be number 4, lack of streaming will cost her

Will be interesting to see if the UJ single can hold onto a Top 5 place as they really are going all out - The tripled the amount of fans allowed into the HMV signing, They are releasing a 3rd 'exclusive' version tonight which is part of a bundle [Physical and 4 downloads] which they have reduced to £3.49 to encourage fans to buy which in turn will lead to 5 sales as the MP3s each have to be downloaded individually.

 

The downside is the single will plummet next week - Id much rather them work on getting a real hit than having a 5 week chart run.

Highly unlikely, they are down to 11 on iTunes right now and can only see dropping throughout the week unless any promo can propel them back up. I predict they will replica what Rizzle Kicks did last week and finish the week around top 15/20.
