Apparently they are number 14 on the UK charts already after only Sunday nights sales.

Up to #13 in the USA

Probably just gossip. Incredible to see the instant success this song is having not just over here but globally. Surely a full world tour this era isn't even a question now

Oh my god at this being #14 in the midweeks. It could actually go to #1 then.

I think it could challenge this week - how amazing would that be with 2.5 days less sales!

 

Radio support is going to carry on, hype, scandal, media gossip / interest, possible video, promo etc are all going to work in SOTME's favour this week.

Roughly what time did Little Mix perform last night?

About 20:30 UK

Big increase when Little Mix performed then!

Then a big drop again afterwards

I hope this continues on iTunes for a while! Nice to see that plum James Arthur off the top for a while :)

1 Little Mix - Shout Out to My Ex 1.0000 1.0000

2 James Arthur - Say You Won't Let Go 0.3768 0.4297

 

Seriously - these updates are getting ridiculous considering how well James is doing himself.

the ugly heart comparisons are spot tbh. i actually thought it was ugly heart playin when i heart it on the radio earlier.

I never even could have dreamed they'd manage a lead like this on iTunes.

AMAZING

Number 1 song worldwide according to Livepopbars. Quite a big lead on the Chainsmokers

Woops.

Over a million views for their performance already!! *shakingcheeseblock*

Over 20k sales and it's not even been 24 hours. As Freddie Mercury once sang: "is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?"

If you're looking at digital Sales Data, it doesn't mean there's been 20k sales, it means at the rate they're selling they'd make 20k sales a day, it's used using estimates of the kworb numbers - there's no way of actually knowing until we get midweeks what it's actually sold. Still very good though that it's on a 20k rate!

 

James Arthur down to 34%!

They increased their lead

from 0.3768 > 0.3467

 

The only dark green update in top 30
