Becky Hill 74

Billon 133

 

Kendrick #12 without the 1D instant grat, fab <3

 

You Ruin Me rising like one of those vintage EP single releases, Abdul is surely all smiles over this!

 

I wonder if everyone that pre-ordered You Ruin Me will realise that their pre-order never actually materialised!

The EP single releases were so much more interesting to track on release day though.

17. The Veronicas- You Ruin Me

Kendrick isn't going to go top ten is he? :(

Oh Paloma :( not looking very promising.

Would be extremely unlikely (I presume you mean officially not iTunes), although it's looks like it'll outdo my initial expectations.

Shame Kendrick had to sell out to get a decent sized hit. It's not a patch on his previous material.

That's terrible! :(

 

Is the description for this thread a reference to All Of Me by any chance? :P

 

No, it's a reference to 'i' by Kendrick Lamar.

 

(Slaying at #12 *.* Much higher than I thought it'd get after Henry Krinkle stalled at #20 last week from similar pre-orders, hopefully should be a very safe top 40 then!)

I've heard that it isn't massively representative of the album as it's part of a narrative that's been taken out of context because it sounds more like a hit single (which wouldn't be surprising considering this applies to pretty much all the singles from 'good kid, m.A.A.d city' as well). It's not quite up to the same standard as 'gk,mc' but it's still very good IMO and hopefully will sound better in the context of the album ~

Any idea why Gareth Malone is declining rapidly?

It's not as if it's been deleted fron iTunes or anything.

Do we know if that is what has happened?

Nobody wants to download it at the moment.

EDIT

Wrong thread I guess? :kink:

Yep! :P

Nobody wants to download it at the moment.

Even if sales fell to zero that wouldn't explain why as a new release it's actually *declining* on KWORB. Surely at worst the figures would be static.

11. Gareth Malone's All Star Choir // Wake Me Up

12. Kendrick Lamar // I

15. The Veronicas // You Ruin Me

45. Paloma Faith // Ready for the Good Life

73. George Ezra // Listen to the Man

74. Becky Hill // Losing

Veronicas now #13. I hope they get top 10 by 6pm so they get played on Big Top 40!

The iTunes popularity formula thing is weighted towards more recent sales I think.

The Veronicas & Kendrick Lamar above Gareth Malone already :o
