Where have you heard this? It's still a shock that "History" is doing miles better than "Infinity"

 

Their official Twitter :P

woah seems like a pretty inauspicious start for the x factor winner’s single this year! when you consider that 'love yourself' is only shifting ~55k downloads per week, a 40% lead for 'forever young' would potentially only yield ~85k over 7 days, so ~50k in 4 (assuming it doesn’t slow down massively). with only 2 days of midweek physical sales, and doubtful streaming potential, louisa looks like she may struggle to even match steven brockstein’s 127k first week sales at this rate~

It really is an awful winners song. Such a shame as Louisa has an immense voice.

 

Hope she gets the #1 though just to continue the run of winner songs always getting to #1

In that case, let's hope they make "Infinity" their final single before their hiatus

Good to see Stormzy in the top 5 now but it should have been next week instead of this one.

another update and bieber is holding

Justin Bieber's Christmas #1 odds have changed from 7/1 to 3/1. Stormzy is 4/1

 

Have William Hill been reading Buzzjack?

Funny that everyone was on Twitter last night saying XF was rigged for Louisa to win, and that the song was chosen to suit her specifically because they "knew" the other guys weren't going to win. But now it's out everyone's saying it's a terrible choice of song, etc.

Damn, I should have put money on Bieber this morning, how annoying. Not bothering at 3/1.

Yup it's a bad song that suits Louisa's style rather than R&B.

 

Apparently she won at 53%, if they had won with it Lord knows what the chart would have looked like...blood bath!

Well it is a lot more suited to her but it is also pretty crap.

Justin Biebers 4/1 on Ladbrookes.

I literally told everyone to put a bet on this morning, Bieber was at 8/1 when I got up... Shame I didn't put it on myself :cry:

OMG Shut Up at #4 on iTunes?!?!? :w00t: :yahoo:

 

Was it the Anthony Joshua fight? Haven't been following at all this week :P

XF winners single is extremely weak this year, maybe the worst to date.

First red update for Louisa

already a red update for Louisa :o

 

at this rate she won't go silver

Edited December 14, 20159 yr by pes

She will go silver quite easily you'd think :lol:

 

A light red update is fine, I wish it increased more but the popularity numbers are fairly stable at the moment.

“Happy” was doing similar numbers to “Love Yourself” and Sam Bailey's trajectory on Kworb at this point was: http://kworb.net/popuk/archive/20131217.html

I do like Louisa, but it's about time these awful winner's singles started getting what they deserve. They're the lowest form of 'music', and I'll wait and see what she comes up with for her first proper single.

 

Been saying this for years, they should just wait and release a really good original song in January and keep everyone remembering she exists into 2016. Seems we have reached a tipping point where XF doesn't have the power anymore - hopefully record companies take note and artists start targeting the Christmas chart again!

 

Be interesting to see this and next weeks no1 now!
