Chart positions for 2 new releases please:

 

- Platinum Pixie

- Clean Bandit - New Eyes Special Edition

 

Thanks.

 

Pixie is at #71 (could just hold onto the top 100) and Clean Bandit's album is a re-entry / climber to #53.

 

Not really surprised that the Clean Bandit re-release isn't doing that well, it feels like a bit of an afterthought of a release, like they made a new track with Jess Glynne but didn't have a new album ready yet so decided to do a cash-in re-release in time for Christmas instead.

I agree

What? I don't get it. And it's SNOWING ADAM. I'm no snowman :lol:

 

That is usually took into consideration by mods, it's only if it's totally irrelevant that you'd be asked to take it elsewhere. Jack's comment about Take That being awful may not directly be about the charts but it's an opinion based on the fact they're likely to go to #1 this weekend.

 

Absolutely! I better stop talking about it now :lol:

Is that not how pretty much all re-releases feel though?

 

I thought the new tracks on New Eyes enhance the album, although I'd rather they weren't all just tagged on the end so it felt more coherent. And the bonus disc isn't too bad either, at least it's a different take on the tracks that actually works as an album on it's own.

 

This is a chart prediction thread. Stick to the topic.

Hope The Hanging Tree makes the top 20

It will be interesting to see sales figures for tomorrow. This will surely give a clearer picture of whether TT can overtake Band Aid. Its going to be close and TT are now no1 on iTunes and have further publicity lined up tomorrow. I personally hope they can do it but think they will only stay a week at the top as the albums out next week and Band Aid may gain more momentum again.

Am I right in thinking the last act to do the double was Miley Cyrus? Pretty unbelievable if so...

They are finally no.1 on iTunes but I think it will be short-lived with Swift catching up fast. But this battle is going down to the wire, If they managed to pull a decent amount ahead of BA during the next couple of days they might just do it.

 

Would be a interesting mid-week chart to look back on if they do, as they started out ahead, fell behind and now have the prospect of taking back the no.1 again, don't think i've seen the top end of the singles chart be this close all week.

I thought Pixie would be higher, maybe they'll do some TV ads for her at the weekend.

Me too, incredible song :wub:

I know I did last year with Bastille/Lily Allen.

Surprised how well the script album his holding. Its tracking ahead of the last (terrible) album. I would have thought that since they are such a known quantity that their sales would be front loaded to the fans ....

Yes. I would have thought BS would be top 5 by now :(

 

Your right there is a lot of BS in the top 5 :P

Olly Murs could get #1 next week, he was the biggest seller yesterday with "Thinking Out Loud" in second place. Taylor Swift, even if she goes to #1 on iTunes has ZERO streams and is therefore at a disadvantage (of about 8-10K/week against Olly and as much as 15K/week against Sheeran).

Ah yes that's also true :lol:

It can't be zero? I thought youtube and stuff counted? Or is that just America?

That's just the US, only audio streams count towards the UK charts

Also, I KNEW David Guetta's position was too low on the first update.

I imagine it wouldn't be far off the mark - but it can't be reliable if it was giving figures when there was still 6 hours left of the sales day
