Good to see Ugly Heart still safely top 15 on iTunes. Hopefully they can climb from last week's official position given that they're doing a bit better on Spotify now.

Oh gosh, I just realised that pushes Charli XCX down another place if they're releasing on that date. :(

As much as I'd love 'Break the Rules' to smash, it's currently doing zilch on pre-orders anyway. :(

So was Boom Clap until it got play-listed. As soon as it started getting airplay its pre-order jumped up. It'll likely get playlisted this week or next week on Radio 1.

When is 'Steal My Girl' released? The daily iTunes thread has it as 28th September but I also read 12th October earlier in this thread. Can anyone confirm?

 

If it's 12th Oct then they'll surely be #1 (assuming it's not a terrible song).

Great to see G.R.L hanging on in there. should return to top 20 officially this week.

 

also yeeeeeeeeeeeeees for hozier - would be surprise if this misses the top 40 now.

#42 Enrique Bailando :blink: :o

FINALLY!

As much as I'd love 'Break the Rules' to smash, it's currently doing zilch on pre-orders anyway. :(

 

Is it even available to pre-order yet? Even so, it's 5 weeks until release and it hasn't been playlisted anywhere yet.

 

I just realised 1D are the week before, but even so could probably be higher than her anyway.

I've heard Gust of Wind on the radio a few times ever since album release (also Brand New), so I don't know. Capital is the only station that never plays album tracks, but Radio 1 do sometimes. It's a good sign nonetheless!

Ooh! I'm glad you've heard 'Brand New' a few times. That would obviously be my pick, but I can't see them releasing that and GOW would probably do that bit better now tbh.

#42 Enrique Bailando :blink: :o

 

Hooray! :dance: :w00t:

 

Finally the worldwide summer smash appears in the uk charts. About time. Hope this becomes another top 5 for him, at least.

I somehow don't see that, particularly after There Goes My Baby flopped so hard...

Yeah, Gust of Wind would do better imo. And I agree with you it's better than Get Lucky.

I thought for a minute you were talking about the Usher song, I was going to say it's years ago that song came out. :lol:

 

Not sure how well Bailando will do, but I think it has potential to chart. Haven't heard Enrique's previous single, but I think Bailando has a better chance at charting since it's been huge in other countries, and is also likely a better song.

It was on digital spy, it will premier around the 29th September with it released on 12th October

 

Sadly it's 1D so even if its not rubbish it will still be huge and probably number one :cry:

 

Unless Watermat causes a MAJOR upset or the new Avicii track gets released that week

Sadly it's 1D so even if its not rubbish it will still be huge and probably number one :cry:

 

They've had 3 #1s out of 11 singles, so you're overreacting just a tad. Best Song Ever and Live While We're Young proved it's NOT a dead cert for them to go to #1 with a lead single.

Talay Riley about to come from complete obscurity to grab two mega-hits!

He had a top 10 hit already with Chipmunk in 2009 with Look For Me. No clue how it goes but not complete obscurity. :P

To be fair though, the latter was up against a lead single from Rihanna and a non album single from Adele, both of whom at the time were much bigger than 1D.

I doubt either of these songs will be much bigger than the hit he already had ('Look For Me' by Chipmunk which he featured on).

 

He actually had a very minor solo hit as well - got to #57 in 2011 with 'Make You Mine'.

Live While We're Young was blocked by Rihanna and PSY, Adele was #4 :P I get your point but they still aren't *guaranteed* #1s or huge hits.
