Hello is a stunning song (as is Sorry) but how Adele fans can say that Sorry is boring and Hello isn't baffles me. Which song is better in terms of quality is subjective, but clearly the more boring song is Hello.

Bieber is bigger now than he has been before because he's managed to extend his appeal and get people to take him seriously while also not alienating the teenage girl fanbase. Although based on recent incidents / stories about him, it seems he might WANT to alienate those people (who can blame him?) :lol:

Surprised with JB 's sales .I don't think he 's doing well like that

JB has 2 big hits in this era while 1D didn't have a big hit .Their singles are only front-loaded

If i 'm not mistake ,JB has yet promoted his album in UK right ??

Though it may have sold less last week by virtue of being further away from Xmas than this week is.

 

It might have sold less but we'll never know that. The point I was making is based on Kylie's album sales this week, it would have been enough for top 10 album last week.

Mids are in Joseph or Joe. will be on the case :D I'm outta here, sorry.

Happy to do this.

 

 

Incoming...

Edited November 19, 201510 yr by Joe.

Just before Joe does the full update, 1D were outsold by Justin by about 4k again yesterday and are currently ~7k ahead. Looks to be really close but I think 1D will just about nab it!

 

Either way, what an incredible top 2 on the albums :wub:

:puke: :puke:

Justin looking to have EIGHT songs in the top 40 this week, potentially a ninth with Purpose at #44! :o

Looks like Sam Smith will rob Little Mix of a new peak with LMLY by about 200/300 copies :(

Looks like One Direction will beat Bieber by around 3,000 :(

 

Bieber have three songs top 5 is an absolute fantastic achievement, I'm going to guess One Direction will have bigger sales over Bieber but Bieber's streaming is making him close the gap much quicker.

 

Bieber having three songs top 5 though come tomorrow! When was the last time this was done?

How's Kylie done in comparison to yesterday?

How's Kylie done in comparison to yesterday?

 

 

Her sales have dropped by about 150. She sold just over 1k yesterday. 14,636 sold so far. It's be a top 5 album outside Q4

Bieber having three songs top 5 though come tomorrow! When was the last time this was done?

 

As said earlier, it hasn't been done before :heehee:

 

Kylie's sold just over 150 copies less than she did yesterday (still over 1k though), so she's quite stable right now! (oops, beaten by Joe)

I'm sure Kylie will have multiple weeks in the top 20, and sell a good amount. It's bound to be a big Christmas buy for casual listeners .

btw how is ellies album doing?

Sorry is so 2015. Sounds like Years and Years wrote it. It's ok but because there's precious little of Justin's personality in it that it sounds anonymous. At least Hello has Adele's stamp on it.

 

 

btw how is ellies album doing?

 

Sold 1584 yesterday and is still at #13, pretty disappointing sales for her, but she should manage a couple more weeks top 20 without promo.

One D won't hit 100k then.
