Apparently it's a Tidal exclusive for a month and will be released on iTunes March 12th...not sure if that's confirmed or not though.

Well only a week makes more sense so hopefully that's right!

Wonder if it can go to @1 on tidal sales only

Considering it's lower chart impact relative to itunes

You have to subscribe and pay a monthly fee just to get tidal right? Or is it free like itunes to install it?

For a month?! I foresee a lot of pirating in that case unless they panic and change that.

You can get a free trial with Tidal however not sure if people will be bothered to do so when it's now available so readily to acquire in other ways without having to sign up for yet another streaming service.

So could Viola Beach make any top 40 impact??

 

Depends how it holds up and if it gets any streams? Adele was Top 5 most of the week with 'All I Ask' and ended up at #41 officially without streaming to help.

Not exactly top 5. All I Ask's progress on that week from Friday to Thursday:

 

3-5-8-10-12-15-20

 

(Monday update is missing so I guesstimated it at #10)

Also doubt it will get to number 1 if release is Tidal only - last Album Yeezus sold 25k in first week when release was more widely available.

Suspect Adele may increase to above 25k (after Grammys)

Also may have underestimated Ronan Keating's chances...

Yeah it depends how well Viola Beach hold up as to whether they'll be top 40. Fewer people will already own it unlike the Bowie songs so that could see some continued interest. Streaming numbers for today for the track will be very interesting! I don't think All I Ask is a good comparison anyway because that really did have no streaming, this has the possibility of at least one day of good streaming.
It's very sad about viola beach! I think the single will probably enter the top 40 we will know later on today! Also predicting Adele to return to the top after her Grammys performance ! Then the Brits next week! Two weeks at the top fingers crossed!!
I think the Viola Beach song could catch on, it's a really good song that will appeal to a large audience. I hope it can keep climbing on iTunes.

Good to see Adele at #1 again, should get a small boost with the grammys tonight (although they air tomorrow in the UK I think?). Plus "When We Were Young" is increasingly nicely in both airplay and streaming. Can't wait for the BRITS performance - could put "When We Were Young" in contention for #1.
Who's still buying Adele's album? I'm sure everyone has it by now

Based on Sales of "21" I would say there are still another 2 million+ potential buyers of "25"!

Realistically probably won't reach those levels but should comfortably shift 1 million this year
