Yeah, Kings of Leon should easily be #1, I think with 40k/50k sales.

 

I suspect Oasis, Phil Collins and Tom Chaplin could be Top 5, with Green Day taking the remaining spot, whilst TDCC and Rebecca Ferguson should be Top 10.

Apparently, Little Mix are #1 and #8 with their pre-order! GET IT GIRLS!!! :o

 

Edit: done a classic case of mis-reading. I think they're #1 on iTunes pre-order chart lmao. Oops. :whistle:

09. OneRepublic - Oh My My

Oh, it's up to 7 now.

No one knocking Kings of Leon off just yet! (though Gaga should get there pretty soon)

 

Bublé & Elvis battling for the #1 i guess, should see some pretty high sales at the top of the album chart, and both will of course continue to sell loads through Nov/Dec. Gaga will probably debut at #3, something around 35-40k would be my guess

Lady Gaga 1

Michael Bublé 2

Elvis Presley 3

Pretty Reckless 5

Leonard Cohen 6

Melanie C 7

Korn 8

 

Jimmy Eat World 13

Graeme Park 17

NxWorries 19

Yes, that's my guess too for Gaga sales. At least 80k for the #1 I think - I know that's an ambitious total to put out there before any info in this day and age but I think it's perfectly doable given the two artists involved. I just hope Gaga doesn't completely collapse next week. :(

Yeh there's a chance of big numbers - it happened last year round this time too when the big Xmas albums came out the no1 sales went from 20-35k to over 60k, Adele helped tho!

I hope Tove Lo does ok

01. James Arthur (ew)

02. Jack Savoretti

03. Courteneers

06. Madness

15. Tove Lo

I think we'll probably be seeing Elvis or Michael Buble at #1, with James Arthur at #3.

Expecting lots of :o , OMG & wasn't expecting that kinda comments when James Arthur delivers huge sales this week.

Expecting lots of :o , OMG & wasn't expecting that kinda comments when James Arthur delivers huge sales this week.

I could see him opening with 30k-45k which I'd consider to be a healthy opening.

Yeah, I've always expected a decent opening for him. Monotoned singer song writer males always sell albums here in the UK. I'm not 100% sure if I see it holding up amazingly over Christmas, but time will tell.

Slay me Jack *.*

LeAnn Rimes is on Graham Norton tonight so probably a boost for her, shame the album is diablocial.

Alexander Armstrong and Daniel O'Donnell are most likely to chart top 20 as well, their previous albums sold reasonably well.

Some big new releases, Emeli probably heading for #1 on good but not brilliant sales, ahead of Olly with Nathan/Cliff contending for the Top 5

 

Leonard Cohen's sad passing means he's going to a contender for number one next week
