December 4, 201411 yr https://play.google.com/store/music/collect...f9_best_of_2014 Full list of albums on offer on Google Play -- seems they're doing a Best Of 2014 offer. I doubt they bring in many sales at all, though.
December 4, 201411 yr Nicki Minaj's album The Pinkprint is out on the 15th so she will give him a run for his money :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
December 4, 201411 yr The Pogues are gaining on Mariah even with her streaming advantage and are actually marginally ahead of her on sales alone now! *.* Thank you based iTunes 59p offers. (I expect Mariah will still just about be ahead on Sunday but if The Pogues can hold up their sales lead throughout next week they could well overtake). They do look to both be on course for a comfortable top 20 position anyway as I had predicted :D Wham! could sneak into the top 40 by Sunday as well. For comparison the Xmas song positions this week last year: 14 Mariah 16 The Pogues 34 Leona 37 Wizzard 44 Wham! 56 Shakin' Stevens 57 Slade 62 Band Aid 67 Brenda Lee 72 Chris Rea 79 Kelly Clarkson 89 East 17 92 The Killers 98 Andy Williams
December 4, 201411 yr Poor Union J :( It should still be their highest charting single, so good for them. Oh and it's funny how Ed has been outselling Take That's album for the last two days :lol:
December 4, 201411 yr Ed Sheeran's consistent album sales are so beautiful :cry: I wonder if 'x' will outsell its predecessor :o. It certainly has a lot of further sales potential with regard to future singles (looking at you in particular 'Afire Love' and 'Runaway', don't let me down fellas). Yaaaassss somebody who thinks that Runaway should be a single too. :cheer: :wub: I want I'm a Mess as the next single. Aside from the two you mentioned, I think Photograph could do well too.
December 4, 201411 yr Poor Union J :( It should still be their highest charting single, so good for them. Not sure 'poor Union J' holds much weight when you consider what their fortunes would have been without X Factor :P. The very fact they're on course for a top 3 single and the best lead-in to their album in terms of prominence/relevance that they've had yet is a huge success for them!
December 4, 201411 yr Author 15k in a day for Ed Sheeran is huge! :o If the albums keep selling the same amount they did yesterday for the rest of the week, the Top 10 should easily beat this time last year: Predicted for this week 01. Take That 137000 02. Ed Sheeran 98000 03. AC/DC 90000 04. One Direction 65000 05. Sam Smith 63000 06. Olly Murs 57000 07. George Ezra 42000 08. Pink Floyd 39000 09. The Vamps 38000 10.

December 4, 201411 yr Do They Know It's Christmas? is at 11 on Wednesday's update. So to all those who said that "the number one was sorted until when the X Factor Winner's Single came out", eat your words! :D :lol: I wouldn't be surprised if Band Aid 30 returns to #1 next Sunday, following the physical release. Actually, I'd be more surprised if it didn't But I guess it depends on whether the charts reflect the mood, or the charts affect the mood, if you see what I mean If it's more the former, then I think it's more likely to return to #1
December 4, 201411 yr Slightly disappointed with sales so far, expected double if I'm honest...but for any artist to get a #1 single and then the week after sell over 100,000 albums is a great achievement, especially one that is nearly 25 years into it's career. It will be their 7th number 1 album too which is great Edited December 4, 201411 yr by jay727

The physical release is bound to impact on the chart position but can't see it returning to no1 unless downloads and streaming increase.

Michael Buble 32,676YAY! :cheer: We've only been waiting for sales like this for the whole year!!! :lol: GooglePlay really does wonders for the albums charts! Also, if that stays the same, when was the last time we had an ALL MALE (or all female) albums chart top 10? :o
December 4, 201411 yr Also, if that stays the same, when was the last time we had an ALL MALE (or all female) albums chart top 10? :o Last all-male top 10 was only 12 weeks ago, I think it's happened a few times this year. 1 1 16 Sam Smith In The Lonely Hour 2 N 1 Robert Plant And The Sensational Space Shifters lullaby and... The Ceaseless Roar 3 3 12 Ed Sheeran x 4 2 3 Royal Blood Royal Blood 5 5 11 George Ezra Wanted On Voyage 6 N 1 Ryan Adams Ryan Adams 7 49 506 Bob Marley & The Wailers Legend - The Best Of (424wks T75) 8 8 22 Paolo Nutini Caustic Love 9 N 1 Interpol El Pintor 10 6 4 Collabro Stars
December 4, 201411 yr Thrilled Union J won't be getting a #1 :cheer:, although it still leaves utter dirge at the top. :nocheer:
December 4, 201411 yr Please could you tell me where is Susan Boyle on the Thursday update? Thank you

December 4, 201411 yr The day people realise Ed Sheeran is utter trash needs to come quick please. I wouldn't say I had particularly strong feelings either way, but he does sound pretty good on that Sons of Anarchy song.
December 4, 201411 yr Please could you tell me where is Susan Boyle on the Thursday update? Thank you On another date with her first ever boyfriend maybe. :o Yes, a rich American apparently and he can't be accused of being after her money as he reportedly has far more than her. :o
