Sam Smith is going to be Oscar winner Sam Smith next year isn't he? Can see it now

1. Sam Smith

13. Sia

16. Little Mix

21. Rudimental ft. Ed Sheeran

22. Nick Brewer

 

Looks like we'll have all of these fighting for the top 20 on Friday, though Nick Brewer might fall a bit short

'Wasn't Expecting That' also seems to getting constant ramming from Radio 2 as that's to 27 as well.

 

Sia and Little Mix for comfortable top 10 please :teresa:

Sod you all, I LOVE the new Bond theme! :wub:

Surprised Little Mix have started so slow, I thought it would have easily been top 3 by now. I'm guessing it could potentially miss the top 10 this week now as streaming could cost it!

I don't think Little Mix are the type of act to set the chart alight with OA/OS, once radio pick it up (I've already heard R1 play it this morning) I'm sure it'll go top 5! Feels like a long runner to me, especially if they get to perform it on X Factor!

2. R. City - Locked Away (feat. Adam Levine)

0.5024

Thank God that awful R City song is getting pushed as far away from the #1 spot.

Liam, I agree with you regarding R City song but I am not sure whether I can agree with you given the context of who replaced that.... :D

oh so Sam Smith did get released today.

 

I thought it was going to #1 even with the Monday release but now it's got the full week it's even more certain to do that.

Sia on the edge of the Top 10, interested to see how well this does in the long run (after the music video lands)

I'm with you, Liam

The new Sam Smith song is BORING. Little Mix's is kinda dull, I think I have started to prefer Fifth Harmony, they have BETTER music.

 

The new Sia song is FAB.

 

No other standouts really.

 

 

I was just thinking the other day why some singles have been released on a Thursday and I might have an answer to that. Friday is now the new global release day that means also in the far east and Australia. Because of the time differences some songs appear as released on a Thursday afternoon in Europe but in reality they are Friday releases, because they have been just put up on iTunes according to the Australian time where it was already Friday. What do you think?

Little Mix's song only officially premiered today. So it was never gonna go much faster! I believe it'll be a steady OA/OS seller! It'll have longevity I think.

I didn't even know Sam Smith had a new song coming out. :blink:

:D

The new Rudimental song will shoot up once people are exposed to it... has the potential to be one of the biggest songs of what remains of 2015.

 

Really want Nick Brewer to do well, been loving that song for ages! Had all the right promo as well, it's always on the music channels and stations like Capital, Kiss and 1Xtra - can't ask for much more as a rapper releasing your debut major label single.

I really like the Crystal Waters sample in Nick Brewer's song. Was one of my faves start of the 90s. I guess you're aware it's a sample :D

And a stupid release strategy meaning a load of their fans have already bought the song, which doesn't show. :angry:
