May 16, 201610 yr Radio 1's 'chart contender' from last week [OneRepublic] only at #51 in the mids tho :lol: It does indeed look as if some streaming is missing though.
May 16, 201610 yr So happy to see Kygo at number three!! Would be better seeing him at #1. Surprised people wanna spend £14 on Beyoncé's album
May 16, 201610 yr Author Would be better seeing him at #1. Surprised people wanna spend £14 on Beyoncé's album It's £12 in stores, and a highly critically acclaimed album. Why are you surprised?
May 16, 201610 yr Beyonce and JT staying at number 1 for the rest of the week would be great, but with Calvin and Drake's superior streaming I'm not hopeful.
May 16, 201610 yr It's £12 in stores, and a highly critically acclaimed album. Why are you surprised? Honestly, Bey haters seem to lose all common sense when talking about her. It really is something to behold. Why are people willing to spend £14 on the most critically acclaimed album of the year, that comes with a very big budget film to go with it? I mean, really? Just baffling.
May 16, 201610 yr Not sure how much data is missing, but here's how they've changed from last week, and my projections for Friday. 01 Drake −19% 99,964 02 Justin Timberlake +38% 97,139 03 Rihanna/Calvin −15% 93,619
May 16, 201610 yr there must be a fair chunk of streaming data missing (2 days seems par for the course on mondays these days~) in which case drake has an easy 6th week on lock, while on the albums drake and kygo are likely to be rather closer to beyoncé ~ could be a close call!
May 16, 201610 yr If streams are missing, then I could see Drake getting the top spot with Kygo advancing to 2. I guess it will be a close one..
May 16, 201610 yr Does she really have a fanbase? Serious question :P Not at all. Even James Arthur has more Twitter followers than Meghan Trainor.
May 16, 201610 yr It will be so close but Drake doesn't slow down on streaming, I don't get it. So he will sell 60% more than him and still will lose. :(
May 16, 201610 yr It will be so close but Drake doesn't slow down on streaming, I don't get it. So he will sell 60% more than him and still will lose. :( Actually on iTunes Justin Timberlake is selling 133% more than Drake (i.e 2.3 times more), however this is reversed on streaming (Drake is streaming roughly 2.3 times more than JT) - and because streaming currently has somewhere between 70-80% contribution to total 'chart sales' (even in the Top 10) the lead on downloads is fairly irrelevant.
May 17, 201610 yr OK I know there's data missing and streaming to factor in etc. and it will be far lower come Friday... but for The Stone Roses to even show up at No. 4 in this day and age is pretty incredible!
May 17, 201610 yr What a disaster for Nicky Byrne,I was sure he would manage a top 40 album never mind struggle to stat top 75.
May 17, 201610 yr Is the Manics' Wales football song out this week? Yeah, it's just not doing very well.
May 17, 201610 yr Yeah, it's just not doing very well. CD single has been doing well on Pre-order to be fair though (and that's not released until 3rd June). This song will probably peak just before Euros start on June 10th (when optimism levels are still high).
