February 26, 201511 yr Author Which does make you wonder quite what the point of it is? Presumably to make a difference to album totals rather than weekly sales.
February 26, 201511 yr Shouldn't the title be changed to Sunday Chart Predictions (Thursday Update + Sales) now that we have an update for it?
February 26, 201511 yr Author Shouldn't the title be changed to Sunday Chart Predictions (Thursday Update + Sales) now that we have an update for it? Ta for noticing!
February 27, 201511 yr Streams have not been added, I thought streaming sales comes into effect from March 1st for the album charts. Would have made more sense for them to be introduced for the *sales week* beginning 1st March, rather than the chart *announced* on 1st March...
February 27, 201511 yr Once again I scan the Top 5 and think "Oh, Hozier has dropped out of the Top5" only to see him at number 2, again .
February 27, 201511 yr Not a bad start for Madge then! Hopefully she can make the top 30. The added publicity is no doubt helping. Surely there's a less painful way to get publicity, though! :lol:
February 27, 201511 yr can someone give me some light on why is Rihanna #7 when she's been (and still is) #2 all week... with a decent gap with #3?
February 27, 201511 yr can someone give me some light on why is Rihanna #7 when she's been (and still is) #2 all week... with a decent gap with #3? Other songs having far higher streaming than her.
February 27, 201511 yr She's slowly picking up on streaming though, and I expect taht come Sunday she'll at least finish at #6 above Kelly.

February 27, 201511 yr Get that top 10, James Bay :wub: Madge safely top 40, with Ed and Paloma entering/re-entering :D
February 27, 201511 yr Poor Kelly 2-6, most likely end up at about #8 now come Sunday. Still it'll be her 9th Top 10 in the UK. Edited February 27, 201511 yr by Lukuzz
February 27, 201511 yr #8 is about where I expected it to end up by the end of last week, so I'm happy with that! Top 5 would have been an extremely nice plus though, but hopefully with Loose Women on Monday and the album release, she can stabilise and hold up inside the top 10 for a second week (or fall no more than 3 or 4 places!)
February 27, 201511 yr Sales between Sam and Ed must be very, very tight today; hopefully we will receive a sales update later. Glad to see Bloodstream in the top 40.
February 27, 201511 yr Yes at Madge being only 1k form the top twenty! With Wossy tomorrow she'll be fine! Where are Charli/Rita today?
