Wouldn't 6k equal to about 13-16k by the end of the week :unsure:

I'm not too sure what the multiplier is to estimate what albums should sell by the end of the week, but albums are less front-loaded in their second weeks, so if Ella has managed 6k in two days then the likely hood is that it'll be closer to 20k than 15k.

A #1 debut album with 45k sales is hardly flopping :mellow: its only Tuesday with 6k in sales so far

 

That's more than at least 3 X Factor winners sold in their first week.

Slipknot have had no luck with release dates since Iowa. Looking at way over 30k though, which makes them one of about three metal acts still able to do so.
Where's that Del Amitri live album come from? I've never heard of it and it's not on Amazon.

 

It looks like it's been exclusively released via their website (and might possibly be in record shops and such as well but it's certainly not available digitally).

Allegedly Nicole Scherzingers manager confirmed at her album signing that she has been booked for X Factor late November to perform the third single. So maybe Big Fat Lie will have a decent run up to Christmas.

wait a minute they just mentioned a new entry from Taylor Swift. How is it eligible though?

 

Bondax at #31 :music: I doubt it'll stay in officially but yay for it charting highly in the midweek stage

I wonder if the OCC now have access to split sales of instant grats and are allowing them to chart - there was some news about iTunes changing the way they report sales info about instant grats which was regarding the USA but could be a worldwide change. Something odd is definitely going on with this Taylor song as it's still allowed to chart anyway.

Maybe it isn't an instant grat???!1!1!!!!1!

 

Didn't realise it was Tanya Lacey on the Bondax track, was just thinking it sounded like her! :o Claiming this as more Bellamian success yasss

isn't it the official 2nd single? So not an instant grat

Just noticed Welcome To New York has the same background music as Lady Gaga's Telephone!
