With a quiet release schedule, Sam Smith should remain at #1 for a second week - the first time he'll have stayed on top for more than one week - with the Comic Relief, John Legend-featuring 'Lay Me Down'. The Top 10 should remain similar whilst hoping for a Top 20 debut is Tough Love's 'So Freakin' Tight'. Elsewhere, there should be entries for Pitbull and Ne-Yo's 'Time of Our Lives', MNEK's 'The Rhythm' and possibly Iggy Azalea's 'Trouble' and Kygo's 'Firestone'. After climbing to #1 last minute last week, Sam Smith should do the double yet again. New entries to the Top 10 should include Van Morrison's Duets: Re-working the Catalogue, Mark Knopfler's Tracker, Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly and Marina and the Diamonds' FROOT. Elsewhere, entries should come from Bananarama, Modest Mouse, Tobias Jesso Jr, AWOLNATION, Sleeping With Sirens and The Veronicas. Furthermore, the physical release of Bjork's Vulnicura is sure to see it return to the Top 40. ======================================================== Please note new changes to the Sunday Chart Predictions thread topic: Tuesday/Thursday - There will be no mids from MW for Tuesday and Thursday, however they may come from other sources - this is not always guaranteed.

March 17, 201511 yr Kendrick has released his album on all platforms now. It's now 'released' on Amazon. You just don't receive it for a week :P he doesn't have any CDs in the shops but that's it. I think he's looking for a #1 in the albums this week.
March 17, 201511 yr From Mint Royal: Albums Kendrick - #1 Mark Knopfler #2 Marina #4 Singles Sam/John - #1 MNEK #26 Tough Love #7 Edited March 17, 201511 yr by Joe.
March 17, 201511 yr Great to see Kendrick at #1! Very deserved. Not surprised at Marina's position, and I think she'll be frontloaded too. I'm hoping the physical release of Vulnicura can push Bjork into the top ten after it originally peaked at #11 but I'm not sure if she will be.
March 17, 201511 yr Seeing some great new entries for this week. I'm really hoping Firestone makes the top 40 this week!
March 17, 201511 yr If Sam & John have a small lead from Years & Years, Years & Years could catch them with streaming
March 17, 201511 yr Floparina No4 is hardly a flop for her comeback album which hasnt seen a hit single from it yet.
March 17, 201511 yr *prays there's sales missing from Marina's total* I knew she'd be front-loaded and fall to 6/7 during the week but I thought she'd manage 2 or 3 in today's midweeks so it's a bit disappointing.
March 17, 201511 yr oh dear. How low will Marina fall during the week? :( Not as low as Charli hopefully.
March 17, 201511 yr If Sam & John have a small lead from Years & Years, Years & Years could catch them with streaming This will not happen. Why would they have a small lead?? They are WAY ahead on iTunes.
