It's pretty good to see Leona not only top 1500 already, but actually ahead of The Pogues. However, I can't see her airplay matching theirs or Mariah's, so her trajectory shouldn't be quite as upward... Not to mention The Pogues always start strangely slowly anyway - Mariah is several hundred places higher than Leona but even she tends to get overtaken by The Pogues, so not much hope for Leona beating them. Would be cool for 'One More Sleep' to be the third biggest Christmas song of the year though.

In before Mack's daily update :P

 

Mariah Carey 561

Main chart:

 

547. Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas Is You

1497. Leona Lewis - One More Sleep

 

Holiday chart:

 

01. Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas Is You

02. Leona Lewis - One More Sleep

03. Wham! - Last Christmas

 

The Pogues don't appear on the Holiday chart - they're listed under Alternative (at #252). So we can't figure out whether it or "Last Christmas" will be the next song to enter.

pre-order update

89. Wicked Games (feat. Anna Naklab) [Radio Edit] - Parra for Cuva

1077. Wicked Games (feat. Anna Naklab) - Parra for Cuva

Can't believe this is doing so well!

Top 10 please, tho I'll settle with top 20

Very surprised and happy that Leona has entered the top 1500! I hope she does some promo, even small, like performing it at Xmas light ceremonies/maybe a TV slot or two on a morning show. I think things look good for it to re-enter the top 40 at least though! :D

I can see Heart rinsing this once again, which I'm sure will see its return to the top 50 at least.

'Wicked Games' just sounds like a really weak version of 'Prayer In C' (which in itself I've got very bored of already).

Wicked Games is older, to be fair. Well older than the Robin Schulz version. It's been around for well over a year.

Being older isn't an excuse for being weaker :magic: (I did know that by the way, I've actually known the song for a lot longer than 'Prayer In C' what with it being another former BJSC entry).

CHERYL get in that top 100 soon please. :(

Does it matter if she gets in the top 100 or not? it's a forgone formality that she will be #1 in the end.

After reading through the last few pages I am shocked to discover that Flute has been on pre order for a year. There's no sign of it in the top 1500 at the moment but when it's released it could temporarily block Tulisa from #1 until about Monday night of that week. It will be very funny to see Lethal Bizzle at #1 on iTunes if he gets there :lol:

Cheryl NEEDS to bring I Don't Care forward a week to block Ed Sheeran from number 1, that would be most welcome.

Oh I'm sure it'll be #1 but even so, would be nice to see it doing a bit better. I think Crazy Stupid Love ended up spending most of its pre-order run in the top 100 on iTunes, but I guess that had a BGT performance early on and that helped it hugely, this is relying on a forthcoming X Factor performance.

I reckon that even if she didn't perform on the x factor and even if she wasn't a judge on that show she would still get to #1.

9. Foo Fighters- The Feast and The Famine

 

Another instant grat.

 

 

 

Ella Henderson's 'Ghost' ( #33) and Jamie T's 'Zombie' ( #39) feeling the Halloween effect.

Looks like she won't be #1 then! Remember what happened last time he used this phrase on a Cheryl release week...

Are 1D releasing another single before the album?,and will their instant grats chart does anyone know?lots of top 10 songs if they do?
