Yeah, Fun. are just an act who had a couple of big hits and sold some albums off the back of them. No shame in that but it hardly makes them so massive they can be assured of successful solo careers. That's why Sarah Cracknell is doing so much better... Saint Etienne have never had a Number One but more of the people who do buy their records probably know the names of the band members.

I'd have thought Nate's P!nk collaboration would ensure his name is well known enough, although not enough to propel him to solo superstardom, and that was a couple of years ago now.

 

When I first heard 'Nothing Without Love' I thought that'd be a smash, something really went wrong here.

I heard that Weeknd song in the chart update (new entry at #37), I actually really liked it. :o

 

'Pretty Girls' #8 today!

 

Yeh great track very Michael Jacksonesque - it should rise the chart with airplay!

The new Britney song is extremely weak, i hope it does not take up residence in the top 10 this week.

Nate Ruess is not a really star on his own, no matter the quality.. Wish Fun. would come back with a pop banger.

 

Get it right, it's Nate from Fun :jameela:

Soz... its a bit a dry week for sales material, the fish ain't biting this week :(

Get it right, it's Nate from Fun :jameela:

lol, maybe he'd sell more copies if he called himself Nate from fun.

 

although I like to think Nate flopping is karma for him being a part of Just Give Me a Reason -_-

The issue as well is he sings through his nose. VERY whiney voice, how did he get a contract?

Any sign of Adam Lambert's Ghost Town in the top 100?

Looks like 5MH will remain at #2, maybe #3. Also with PG #11 already it could descend a little more tomorrow and probably end around #17/#18 :thinking:

Yay for Kygo top 40! :cheer: hopefully it can stay there officially. :snif: to A&I flopping :(

A lot of albums going up, must be the Father's Day effect. Anyhow I'm outta here.

Britney/Iggy only 133 copies ahead of #14 and losing ground by about 1000 copies/day so will be at least that low tomorrow, possibly 15. Then as low as 21 by the weekend I think.

Looks like Deorro could be as low as #5 behind Jason Derulo, Major Lazer, OMI, and WALK THE MOON, despite being #1 on iTunes for most of the week~ :(

 

Fantastic to see the lush 'Stole The Show' enter the top40 :wub:

 

Where is 'Waiting For Love' today? Fingers crossed Avicii can make the top40 on streams alone~

 

Poor brave Fono :snif: ~ please stay top100 :cry:

Fifty-two. 8 places higher than this time last week. 824 chart sales below a T40 berth and may just sneak it (probably not though).

I doubt Deorro will be top 3 but I think #4 should be safe. Hope 'Stole The Show' keeps climbing. 'Pretty Girls' is beyond a lost cause :(

:nocheer:

 

Brit needs to move on with the next single ASAP. And put it on Spotify straight away. And do some promo.

Thanks Dr. Blind :)

Actually Chris Brown looks relatively safe at No. 2, Walk The Moon will definitely be a climber though into the Top 5. “Hey Mama” likely to get a record 5th consecutive week at #10 chart fact fans.
