I really had wanted Ed Sheeran to block Cheryl. Ed will easily be the far bigger hit of the 2 overall, i would predict i dont care wont sell half of thinking out louds total amount. Wonderful to see album sales climbing, if only album sales were like quarter 4 all year round.

It won't sell anywhere near half. 'Thinking Out Loud' will be a million seller in the next few months (if not weeks), but I really can't see 'I Don't Care' passing 500k.

RE Thinking out Loud & I Dont Care Im in the same opinion which is why i wish Ed had got a second week - a held back song with XF performance by a big pop star selling only 80k or so is pretty poor - reminds me of the start of summer before streaming when Will.i.am & Rixton etc got to No1 for a week.
