Looks like it's going to be close for the Number 1 album this week :o

Also noteable is OneRepublic's 20-5 climb in albums, which would be a new peak for them if it holds up -- Native has so far peaked at 9. Did they have a Google Play deal or some other kind as well?

Poor Tulisa.

 

Her team so wanted this to be #1

 

Well they were clearly deluding themselves if they ever thought this was a remote possibility.

Yes, Native was 99p yesterday on Google Play. Good to see it climb as a result. :)

She's releasing the video for "Big Girls Cry" today, which should be a sign.

So the rumours of this being the next single are true! BEST DECISION EVER :dance:

It looks like she's premiering the video to 'Elastic Heart', if her Twitter is anything to go by?

Yep, looks like it. That song feels soooo old to me. I do really like it but 'Big Girls Cry' feels like it would have been a bigger single to me.

Are there any streaming sales missing from today's update? It looks as if there might be.

Would like George or Sam to be album number 1 in that race but given all three have already peaked there I'm sure none of them care much.

This. Big girls cry is much better... Wrong choice.

Oh :( well 'Elastic Heart' (despite it being really old now) is still the second best choice of single. I still don't know why she's left it so long after 'Chandelier' though, she should have kept that momentum going.

Looks like Mint Royale isn't aware of what language the title of the Tchami song is in. (On that note hooray for Tchami being top 3 today! Seems like he should be fairly safe for the top 10 on Sunday). A little disappointing that Kanye isn't even top 10 in the first mids, though his lack of streaming isn't helping (showing 0% streaming sales so I'm assuming the song still hasn't been added to Spotify et al <_< Who does he think he is, Taylor Swift?)

'Thinking Out Loud' is registering 23% streaming sales which looks about right to me so I'm inclined to say no. That said, Mikey seems to know when streaming is missing but never bothers posting when it is so he'll be able to give a more definitive answer :magic:

 

OneRepublic, Sia and J. Cole all currently poised for new peaks with their albums - probably won't last though as the 99p effect will fade away.

YES at Sia!! :w00t: So happy at the prospect of this receiving a Top 10 placing, one of the albums of 2014 for me! :wub:

 

Seems 'Elastic Heart' is the next single:

 

 

Good choice, although I would have preferred 'Big Girls Cry'.

As far as I know there isn't any streaming missing

'Elastic Heart' was from the soundtrack of the LAST 'Hunger Games' film, why on Earth is she pushing it as a single now? :drama: Even more ridiculous than the 'Solo Dancing' re-release.

YES at Sia!! :w00t: So happy at the prospect of this receiving a Top 10 placing, one of the albums of 2014 for me! :wub:

Oh it's the same girl from the 'Chandelier' video. Quite frankly, she scares me :cry:

Sia team are really atrocious, 'Chandelier' was almost released one year ago with the album being released in July, who waits 6 months to release the second single from the album??

So pleased for... everything I put emoticons next to, except Thinking Out Loud (can't it just go down?). Also, I'm assuming they are three dropouts (hopefully 27, 29 and 39, but they're unlikely)

 

I hope George Ezra or Sam Smith has the number 1 album this Sunday. Ed Sheeran has had it for too long
