I predict:

 

Little Mix - 102k

Bruno Mars - 65k

Metallica - 61k

 

Looking at how huge LM have become I can see them winning this by a big margin. I may be wrong but I don't see this as much of a race anymore.

When you consider the electrifying momentum that Little Mix have at the moment, I really think (and hope) they could manage to take the number 1 album. When you consider that both versions of their album are in the pre-order top ten, whilst Bruno and Metallica are sitting at #19 and #20, you've got to place Little Mix as the favourites.

Yeah I think Little Mix have this now. Their comeback single was far bigger than I would have expected.

Bump.

 

Any prediction changes?

Well when you made this thread I was thinking all 3 acts could scrap 100k.

 

Right now :

 

- Little Mix : 115k

- Metallica : 90k

- Bruno Mars : 75k

This really is Little Mix's time to finally achieve a number 1 album as i think they are in their golden era now. I will be so disappointed if they dont get the number 1.

 

I predict

1 Little Mix

2 Bruno Mars

3 Metallica

 

That said, i would not be surprised if Metallica enter at number 4 behind Elvis.

 

 

Yep based on how well the single has done I'd say Little Mix will debut at the top. Before I thought Metallica.

Only 8 days to go now before these are all out, I think Little Mix could do this now.

Little Mix look like they're a little bit behind Bruno on Itunes, but on Amazon they've been consistently high (higher) than Metallica/Bruno. If i recall correctly, only around 20% of Little Mix's opening sales last year came from digital sales.

Glory Days doing better on Amazon still, hope they can pull this off. :funky:

Little Mix have this surely?

I can't see anything other than them doing it now.

Little Mix:

#6 & #37 on Amazon

#2 on iTunes

 

Bruno:

#26 on Amazon

#3 on iTunes

 

Little Mix are so huge in physical copies, so i think they can be number #1

 

My predictions:

1 Little Mix 89-96k

2 Metallica 79-83k

3 Bruno Mars 72k-78k

Promo lined up for Little Mix so far that am aware of is

 

Performance on Children In Need tonight

Sunday Brunch show

And no doubt an album advert slot during this weekends x factor

 

I'm sure there will be more things through the week

 

I don't know what promo Bruno as lined up anyone got any ideas? I'm guessing he will get shown in adverts during x factor too.

Metallica have a video that's gone viral atm ('Enter The Sandman' on Jimmy Fallon (played with Classroom instruments)). So that'll give them some increased interest.

They will go Europe from Monday, so no promo in UK after Brunch.

I think Emeli Sandé will get a second week at #1... :kink:
