April 10, 201511 yr As exciting as this week's Top 3 may be, those are some low numbers, even with streaming included.
April 10, 201511 yr It might pick up in the long run but I really did expect James Bay's 'Chaos and the Calm' to sell much more along the lines of George Ezra.... Only this week will be over 100k :( .... I hope it does eventually get closer to the sales of George, Ed & Sam...
April 10, 201511 yr with those kind of sales I think Jess Glynne should easily get to #1 on Sunday, with the weekend effect and the fact she's outselling Nick Jonas on iTunes as well as obviously being ahead on streaming. Seems very much like a default #1 though due to big releases being held back, hopefully Wiz Khalifa is taking advantage of the low sales and releases this Sunday
April 10, 201511 yr Imagine if Wiz Khalifa and OMI were both released on Sunday, that'd be quite an interesting battle! (I think OMI would win that though, probably with ease)
April 10, 201511 yr As exciting as this week's Top 3 may be, those are some low numbers, even with streaming included.I agree, those sales are very poor.
April 10, 201511 yr Imagine if Wiz Khalifa and OMI were both released on Sunday, that'd be quite an interesting battle! (I think OMI would win that though, probably with ease) All those built up pre-orders would ensure Omi would get a #1 debut, but I imagine his label don't wanna take any chances (this is why we rarely get interesting chart battles anymore)
April 10, 201511 yr Good GRIEF :blink: at those sales, the No1 will be hard pressed to shift 60k for the week at this rate... :( When sales are low it adds a certain amount of unpredictability to the proceedings; you can never be quite sure how much impact a TV performance will garner, so could a Graham Norton performance help Nick Jonas to cling on? Thankfully with a substantive streaming advantage a third week for Jess Glynne looks the most likely outcome, thus stopping a pointless one week flash in the pan that no one will remember in six months time!
April 10, 201511 yr I don't know why people are so against a more unpredictable #01. Jess has been there with Rather Be pt.3, she doesn't need to be at the top any longer.
April 10, 201511 yr so could a Graham Norton performance help Nick Jonas to cling on? Actually, it's Alan Carr he's on tonight
April 11, 201511 yr I don't know why people are so against a more unpredictable #01. Jess has been there with Rather Be pt.3, she doesn't need to be at the top any longer. I don't mind unpredictable #1's as long as they're not utterly awful. (I wouldn't have been completely against that Voice track for instance). Those sales give me a bit more confidence for Jess with higher weekend sales/streaming but this extra promo for Nick is a concern. Edited April 11, 201511 yr by Dobbo
April 11, 201511 yr I'm feeling confident that Wiz Khalifa will make the top 40 tomorrow, seeing as he's #1 on spotify and has few sales from Amazon
April 11, 201511 yr Tomorrow's top 40 could be one of the most unpredictable in ages due to the mess ups with streaming sales during the week!
