December 28, 201510 yr Author is the OCC posting an update? I'm assuming so, since the top 100 charts were posted on Christmas Day in the evening.
December 28, 201510 yr also, in the US the Voice is still big, huge audiences, contestants going to #1 on itunes... although I'm not sure if they've made a big star yet... Melanie Martinez was on The Voice in the US, she's doing pretty well, her album even made top 40 here in the UK
December 28, 201510 yr also, in the US the Voice is still big, huge audiences, contestants going to #1 on itunes... although I'm not sure if they've made a big star yet... They haven't. Biggest success is one platinum single by season 3 winner Cassadee Pope. Most of their winners don't even get to release an album because they are not marketable and Republic Records couldn't care less. They don't have a SYCO behind them. The Voice is just a game show for 4 celebrity coaches and the contestants are their pawns. The blind auditions are the most interesting and they try to finish the live shows as soon as possible which results in the viewers not connecting with the contestants.

December 28, 201510 yr also, in the US the Voice is still big, huge audiences, contestants going to #1 on itunes... although I'm not sure if they've made a big star yet... The Voice still gets huge ratings for NBC with the blind auditions but quickly fades off as soon as battles and lives begin. As for contestants going #1 on iTunes, most are only there for a couple of hours after the live show and that's about it. This is primarily because the contestants gets their votes multiplied by 10, should the song they perform (studio version) reaches iTunes Top 10 within the voting time-frame.

December 28, 201510 yr I agree... The Voice is actually the only singing competition show I've seen that is more about the judges than the contestants, and the fact that the show hasn't been able to produce a single profitable artist out of it is proof enough, imo.

December 28, 201510 yr isn't an album in the contract for the winner? I don't know what their contract is like. But Republic Records gets all non-country winners. The first two winners flopped, #5 had "a quiet release" (in her own words), #6 didn't release anything and briefly appeared in theater production. #8 released an EP (he is a folk singer/songwriter) and now #9 seems most fitting for a career in christian contemporary music, which sells very little. Country winners go to Big Machine Label Group. Big Machine released debut albums of two female winners (#3 and #4) and had a little bit of success with Cassadee. The third country winner, (#7, guy over 30 years old) asked to be let go from his contract before he released anything.
December 28, 201510 yr The UK version of the Voice is dreadful. I am utterly surprised it has managed to keep going. None of the winners have been successful and I couldn't even remember who has won from each of the series.
December 28, 201510 yr Author I'm surprised OCC haven't updated considering they posted the top 100 charts on Friday unless I'm missing something, probably waiting until the morning now. Oh well... makes the chart more interesting on Friday if nothing is revealed all week :nocheer: :P Before anyone asks, we don't have other chart info :P
December 28, 201510 yr Bieber won't get #1, #2 & #3 Adele has #3 confirmed I think he will be 1,2 & 4 though We need new music
December 28, 201510 yr Author We need new music Welcome to the forum and the madness that goes with it, don't worry the lions don't bite unless you feed them :P

December 28, 201510 yr Author Can you see from that crystal ball which team will win the Premier League in May? Or this week's winning lottery numbers ^_^
December 28, 201510 yr Wow Louisa surely won't be top40 given she will probably be out of the iTunes top100 in the next day.
December 28, 201510 yr Wow Louisa surely won't be top40 given she will probably be out of the iTunes top100 in the next day. I think her, Simon and Syco would just like the song gone as quickly as possible now any way.
December 29, 201510 yr Yes but Friday was a chart day and the Christmas one at that today is just an update though maybe that has something to do with it ? Isn't it because it was a bank holiday monday? So they didn't update because of that? Edited December 29, 201510 yr by Envoirment
