I hope Nicky Byrne can chart at some point with sunlight but its more than likely to happen when he performs at Eurovision.

Really hoping this is the week Alan Walker starts to really climb. Faded is set up to be a hit and just needs to happen.

so Beyonce is not out on itunes??? :( cannot see it in the top 1500

The Life of Pablo album does not seem to be out either

196. MOUNT & Nicolas Haelg - Something Good (Radio 1's Track of the Day)

That Sam Feldt song is ~SICK~ and needs to do well.

It'd help if it could get some radio play, but really willing this to do well too.

Adele at 27 on Spotify now and top 20 on iTunes when her 2 versions are combined. Setting herself up for a big climb after the big performances that are coming up. She shouldn't have much trouble soaring to number 1.

I'm not overly convinced 'When We Were Young' is going to #1, but I'd say it should be a safe bet for top 5.

 

I'd be interested to see how it'd perform as a standard post-album single without the Brits performance.

I agree with Aly actually. I think it'll go top 5 because of the Brits but the album has sold so much now.

Is the Gwen song definitely released today in the UK?

I think it would be an insane achievement for Adele to go #1 with When We Were Young, what are the album sales for 25 currently at, over 2.6 million?! That would be an incredible achievement!

I think given 'When We Were Young' is already top-40 with no video (will there be any?) and airplay far from its peak it's safe to say it can trouble top-20 without BRITs performance. Maybe it's not a major hit but still enough for a post-album single, especially for an album which has sold so much.

Any reason why "Lean On" has randomly climbed to #122?

pretty sure i read there is a video coming soon x WWWY, will do good but that's thank to the big promo (Grammys, Brits), I mean sure Zara Larsson would also be #1 if she performed at the Grammys/Brits :D

The soaring heights... :lol:

 

I don't think WWWY will end up at #1 but a long running top 5 looks likely!

I didn't even know it had dropped that low tbh, it's just an enduringly popular song, doesn't really need a reason to climb, it just lingers around.

I'd love to see Adele and Rihanna battling for #1 after the Brits.
