Thinking Out Loud is up to #5 when both its versions (#6 and #71) are combined. It's not far away from Bang Bang at #4 either.

I'm going all out to predict that 'Thinking Out Loud' is going to eventually become another post-album Top 3 hit (following 'I'm Not The Only One' from a few weeks ago).

Watch out for this, it's #1 on iTunes in Holland by a massive difference at the moment so it could very realistically be his 2nd UK #1 at some point in the near future.

 

2. Taylor Swift - Shake It Off

 

I do hope it can beat One Direction to #2 so she can re-peak yet again! I think it'll be difficult but One Direction are falling very quickly with no sign of anything this week to boost them back up again. Taylor will also have a streaming advantage that'll probably be worth around 7 to 8k which could help!

Watch out for this, it's #1 on iTunes in Holland by a massive difference at the moment so it could very realistically be his 2nd UK #1 at some point in the near future.

 

I don't think so. Waves was number 1 everywhere thanks to the Robin Schulz remix, plus he's dutch so it's not such a wonder he's massive there, in his home country.

It'd be miraculous if it even got top 40, let alone number 1.

Don't know if its been mentioned but Break The Rules is 59p yay!! Hope this helps it climb a little for Sunday but I'm expecting a top 30 peak sadly

I'm not sure how Nothing Really Matters would do. It is a piano ballad so with a winter release it could easily be a top 20 hit with support (which I'm not sure if he'll get as Waves was only supported because it was a big club hit) It obviously won't do as well as All of Me/Say Something though

REALLY should've been released next week as originally planned, it's so dead next week and probably would have fared better.

Watch out for this, it's #1 on iTunes in Holland by a massive difference at the moment so it could very realistically be his 2nd UK #1 at some point in the near future.

 

 

 

This won't come near the top 10.

A distinct lack of good songs in the top half of that list.

I don't think so. Waves was number 1 everywhere thanks to the Robin Schulz remix, plus he's dutch so it's not such a wonder he's massive there, in his home country.

 

If it gets played a lot on the radio, it will chart, if it doesn't get played much on the radio, it won't chart.

 

I think it's possible Mr. Probz could get another chart entry on the back of the success of Waves, but it's by no means a guarantee. For example, the follow up to All Of Me didn't chart top 40.

Watch out for this, it's #1 on iTunes in Holland by a massive difference at the moment so it could very realistically be his 2nd UK #1 at some point in the near future.

 

 

 

Really :blink: What on earth are you smoking

I don't think 'Nothing Really Matters' should be written off at all yet, i'd infact say it has a fair amount of hit potential (keep in mind it's an accessible piano ballad~). though as Eric said it could depend on radio play

 

I think Professor Green's next single is the one featuring Mr Probz? So even if this song does nothing Mr Probz has a fairly decent chance of another top 40 hit at least (as Pro Green has a pretty good track record of post-album top 40 hits).

C'mon Watermat! Please stay close to the top 10 so Yehesi can claim their 2nd UK top 10 hit

I'm surprised at Steal My Girl - maybe this era will be a little less big for 1D?

I'm surprised at Steal My Girl - maybe this era will be a little less big for 1D?

Previous lead singles 'Live While We're Young' and 'Best Song Ever' peaked at #3 and #2 so I wouldn't say 'Steal My Girl' being #3 on iTunes would suggest how this era will go.

I think this era will be less big but not because of how 'Steal My Girl' is doing - because of the drop off between the Take Me Home and Midnight Memories eras.
