Despite the mixed reactions to the new James Bond theme, Sam Smith should be getting a runaway #1 with 'Writing's on the Wall'. Other new entries joining him in the Top 10 could be Rudimental and Ed Sheeran's 'Lay It All On Me', Little Mix's 'Love Me Like You' and Sia's 'Alive', whilst elsewhere in the Top 40 could be Nick Brewer's 'Talk To Me' and Duke Dumont's 'Ocean Drive'.

 

Disclosure are party responsible for the #1 contender, for they are responsible for the production of the Bond theme, and are likely to earn their second #1 album with Caracal. Other new entries to the Top 10 could be New Order's Music Complete, CHVRCHES' Every Open Eye, Fetty Wap's Fetty Wap whilst others may include Don Henley's Cass County, Shane Filan's Right Here, Parkway Drive's Ire, The Dead Weather's Dodge & Burn and Julia Holter's Have You in My Wilderness.

And loads of weird Bond fanatics have piled on the Sam Smith single so that'll be no 1. Little Mix 4, Sia 10.

Mint Royale ‏@MintRoyale 2h2 hours ago

Caracal is definitely going to be the no 1 album next week, but it's very tight between electro chancers New Order and Chrvches for no 2.

Well that's that then. Cheers Mint!

Lana Del Rey's album has fallen from 2-19 apparently. :o

CRJ's album down to 81. Ouch.

Mint Royale ‏@MintRoyale 2m2 minutes ago

OMG etc. Just realised the Carly Rae Jepson album has bombed spectacularly down to 81. I suppose that's the end of that then. :(

 

oopsy daisy... most of the huge fallers will recover given its the first update, I wouldn't read into it that much

CHVRCHES!! *.* Top 3 will be an amazing result for them!

 

Little Mix slaying the top 10 at #4 too :wub: :wub:

I find Lana's fall to 19 already a bit suspicious. I could be wrong, but she's still quite high on Amazon/Play/iTunes, so I don't see how it could be that low.

 

Poor Carly though - that is so unjust.

I think some info might be missing.

Given this is the first update after just 1 day of sales I wouldn't read into it that much, most of the new entries have pushed the old albums down, Lana should recover, I wouldn't be surprised if she is back inside the top 10 by the end of the week, or another theory sales data is missing.

The Saturday mids always sound a bit dodgy to me. Remember Naughty Boy was higher than Ellie last week...

Streaming is always missing from the Saturday midweeks as both Spotify and Apple Music seem to be about a day behind with reporting and so the data for Thursday usually comes in today and Friday's appears tomorrow.

Ooh excellent for CHVRCHES. There's some form of hype about this album, I've seen a good few articles about them, but very glad regardless to see they're heading for the top 3, the album really deserves it.

Excellent to see Disclosure still coming for a second #1 album despite the singles not doing as well this time around. Would be perfect if CHVRCHES could be #2 as well but I'm guessing they're behind New Order currently.

I'd love Chvrches to scrape the top 2, though I can't see it either. I bought the album yesterday and I'm not taking to it the way I did the previous one, but I'll keep listening in hopes that it'll grow.

I really hope Sam gets it.

 

Who was the last solo British male to get four number 1s?

I really hope Sam gets it.

Olly Murs perhaps?

Sam already has four. 'La La La' surely counts?

Five if you want to could Band Aid 30 but we don't want to do that.
