Years and Years don't have a streaming advantage yet. Their streaming units will be much more impressive next week.

#1 singles into their second weeks probably gain at least 20k+ in stream sales got to take that into account as usually first week sales don't hardly have any stream sales, at the moment Y&Y are only 2% on streams for this week. I should imagine Y&Y can at least hold on for a second week, a third week is possible, unless Rihanna can climb that week, but I think it be too late by than.

 

You got to remember the #1 act will have the advantage of added streams the following week, unless a new release is high on pre-orders. I think that's how it works.

Im sorry but Rihanna has #3 pretty much on lock this week... She is #1 on spotify and selling much more than #3 and #5

Oh, I haven't checked Spotify for a while, sad to hear :angry: :rolleyes:

Rihanna haters *rolls eyes* Can you not?

 

You may not love this song but its obvious it deserves AT LEAST a top 3 peak. Lack of streaming screwed it over until now... But regardless, it is a huge success and has been holding top 3 on iTunes pretty much since release 6 weeks ago. I hardly think Marlon Roudette deserves a higher placing.

Nah, Stay deserved #1 compared to 45s, and I'm not even that keen on it :)

I'm not a Rihanna hater at all, I like and love a lot of her tracks, but 45s is so boring :rolleyes:

FYI, I really like most of Rihanna's tracks (Disturbia, Russian Roulette, Only Girl, We Found Love, Diamonds, Stay, Unfaithful and Princess Of China are all great songs) but FourFiveSeconds is really quite tedious to be honest. I'm also pleased that Paul McCartney has got himself another top 5 hit. When The Beat Drops Out is far more deserving of the #3 spot.

Flo Rida or Usher won't come CLOSE to Years & Years...

Rihanna's got more chance of doing that than Usher and Flo Rida put together

SO agree with this whole post :cheer:

Which bus takes me to Uptown Funk Mart!n?

Looks like both Years & Years and Noel will struggle to clear 100k this week then.

Which bus takes me to Uptown Funk Mart!n?

I don't think there's a bus that goes there, you need to find Julio and ask him to get the stretch :P

Have Kelly Clarkson/David Guetta/Maroon 5 (10/11/12 yesterday) changed order?

Is heartbeat loud still #10 and where is blank space and 1989?

Thanks in advance :heart:

#7 wherever that takes you

Have Kelly Clarkson/David Guetta/Maroon 5 (10/11/12 yesterday) changed order?

 

In the same order as yesterday

Thanks in advance :heart:

 

For Heartbeat see above comment

Blank Space #30

1989 #7

Thank you!

#7 wherever that takes you

Thanks. Hozier & Mark Ronson/Bruno Mars will probably both overtake Marlon Roudette by Sunday then.

"Uptown Funk" to take its first fall of more than one place then this week. Unless of course it is close between Marlon, Hozier and Ronson in which case streaming could give it the edge and bump it up to #4 (yes, I know Hozier's streaming is strong too).

 

Another two days for "All Day" to edge nearer to the T10, would love to see it make it there officially!

Thanks in advance :heart:

Heartbeat Loud peaked at #50 last November.
