August 26, 201510 yr Rachel Platten may be the "official" 1300th #1 but the song is not the 1300th to go to #1 ~ :magic:
August 26, 201510 yr Just realised Hometown are not in the Top 100! Thought it would do really well here - Radio friendly track and reached #1 in Ireland - They also have a HMV signing tour. Edit - Just realised the download is only available this week, CD & HMV tour is next week but it's not looking good if they can't scrape Top 100! It was originally scheduled to be released this Friday but was brought forward and released back in mid-July
August 26, 201510 yr Interesting to see fellow Northern Ireland-ites Rend Collective likely to get a top 20 album on Friday. Can't say they're necessarily my cup of tea, but nice to see another bunch of local guys/girls doing well. When was the last time that a Christian/spiritual act made the top 20 albums? I know a few have pierced the top 40 in recent years, but I can't think of any that made the top 20.

I know a few have pierced the top 40 in recent years, but I can't think of any that made the top 20. I think Delirious? has had a top 5/10 album in the past, its the only act I can think off from the top of my head.
August 26, 201510 yr I think Delirious? has had a top 5/10 album in the past, its the only act I can think off from the top of my head. They had a top 20 album in 1997 and two further albums that made the top 75. So unless there's been another one in the interim, this would be the first Christian album to make the UK Top 20 albums in 18 years.
August 26, 201510 yr Do all the missing sales get added before Friday? It's not 100% clear most of the time but I'd say so. Streaming tends to be a day behind and I know Apple Music have failed to report Thursday sales before the chart cut-off point before but I'm not sure if that's the case now or not.
August 26, 201510 yr I am surprised by Cilla's album sales. Should be over 20k at the end of the chart week! I guess the news it got to number one last week and more shops would be stocking it now has helped it loads.
August 27, 201510 yr Mint Royale must have done as they were tweeting yesterday about Jojo's Tringle being in the 50s section and Rita Ora rebounding back into the chart. BTW, that picture of yours looks like Beth Broderick. :)
August 27, 201510 yr I am left disappointed with Natalie Imbruglia's placing. It is a likely outcome it will the top 20 :cry:
August 27, 201510 yr Capital advertised Jess Glynne's album three times in one ad break last night, with 'Fight Song' advertised too. :lol:
August 27, 201510 yr I am left disappointed with Natalie Imbruglia's placing. It is a likely outcome it will the top 20 :cry: I wasn't even expecting top 40, let's be realistic, she was never going to do well with it.
August 27, 201510 yr Natalie is doing rather well I think! It was never gonna be a massive seller but let's not forget, her last album didn't even get a proper UK release.
