January 11, 201610 yr It depends on whether it's #1 on today's update or not. I was gonna say, we could use today's update as a barometer to see for that or not. Awfully sad news. RIP.
January 11, 201610 yr Album chart news here http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/d...-breaks__13455/
January 11, 201610 yr Bowie in 43K without him passing away. For sure he will have mind blowing numbers by Friday. And for sure a lot of albums in top 40 - which is well deserved.
January 11, 201610 yr Bowie in 43K without him passing away. For sure he will have mind blowing numbers by Friday. And for sure a lot of albums in top 40 - which is well deserved. HE will do at least 150K. Surprise that Elvis is still selling... even more than ADELE. :|
January 11, 201610 yr Adele 1-3. Seriously worrying times for her, she's really not matching up to the success of 21, I worry for her next album (if she gets to release it)
January 11, 201610 yr HE will do at least 150K. Surprise that Elvis is still selling... even more than ADELE. :| Elvis is selling for just £5 in most supermarkets, which I imagine is helping him alot. Good sales for Bowie so far...I should imagine he will increase his sales quite abit through the week.
January 11, 201610 yr Adele 1-3. Seriously worrying times for her, she's really not matching up to the success of 21, I worry for her next album (if she gets to release it) I'm trying to work out if this is a joke or sarcasm! She's had 7 weeks at number one with an album that's sold over 2.5 million copies. Granted the last 2 weeks I was shocked that sales only just hit 40k but it wasn't going to do 100k forever in this climate...more than likely she will climb up after David Bowie's album and no doubt her Brits performance will have an inpact and keep sales stable.
January 11, 201610 yr Awful news :( Blackstar will open with huge numbers. It's sold out on Amazon and in three supermarkets that I've been in today. Maybe not enough copies in shops this week.
January 11, 201610 yr It's sold out on Amazon and in three supermarkets that I've been in today. Maybe not enough copies in shops this week. Could be on course for an extended run at the Top ? Don't see too much in the Release schedule to topple "Blackstar" in the next few weeks.

I think she's over.
January 11, 201610 yr Adele is past it, she just doesn't sell albums any more. She should take her money and retire.
January 11, 201610 yr So a posthumous top two :( I'm expecting The Best Of Bowie to be somewhere in that top 3 - so a posthumous top 3 and Adele sliding 1-4.
January 11, 201610 yr streaming will definitely get a best of up there, tho the songs might be streamed from different album..?
January 11, 201610 yr So sad to hear the of the loss of David Bowie, he truly was an innovative legend. Hope he can get a charting single, this week (unlikely?) RIP Edited January 11, 201610 yr by JimmyT
January 11, 201610 yr Very sad to hear of the passing of David Bowie, his sales will be much bigger this now as a result. It is somewhat fitting that he died on the week his final album of new material was released.
January 11, 201610 yr streaming will definitely get a best of up there, tho the songs might be streamed from different album..? I think streaming a song benefits every album it's included on.
January 11, 201610 yr Wonder if Adele will last as long as Bowie? Will we see a '69' LP on her birthday in 2059? Hopefully not.
