The Weeknd underperforming so much really is surprising. Perhaps he shouldn't have released this late in the year.

 

At least it will have longevity.

Mariah :cheer: @ entering before the 1st!

LM have extended their lead over Boe and Ball - was only 2k yesterday, 3k now

There’s been quite a trend over the past 20 years of R&B/urban leaning acts performing quite badly with albums released in late Q4, mainly because they don’t jump out as obvious Christmas presents for the most part I suppose.

 

Sometimes they pick up the following year or have good longevity despite an underwhelming peak, but yeah, he’s a prime candidate to get lost in the Xmas rush I reckon. But yeah, the album will hang around for ages.

While i am thrilled to see Little Mix doing so well i really did want Kate Bush to attain another number 1 album as its been so long since she had a number 1. Sales are close in the top 5 but its now very likely Kate Bush will not be number 1 and based on that i am happy for Little Mix to hold on.

 

Olly Murs holding up extremely well which i welcome. Busted, Susan Boyle and Kylie all dropping in the newest update and this trend is something that will most likely continue through the week. I am surprised but not disappointed to see the Weeknd drop from yesterday but i have no doubt when the physical comes available a climb is certain as many of the songs are in the top 100 which indicates interest in the album.

I think Urban artists like Weeknd would perform pretty much the same any time of the year. It would have been an easy #1 most of the year, but I don't think it gets a sales hike in Q4 lots of artists get because of physicals. Even artists like Drake or Frank Ocean, I don't think would benefit much from Q4 and I could even have seen them being beaten by large artists like Little Mix if they were.

I wouldn't call five songs in top 40 underperforming... his music is just not for physical market

The physical has been out since Saturday :')

Michael & Alfie will take the #2 album tomorrow, they are selling thee times as much as Kate Bush sales she did yesterday. I think the Weeknd will chart between 7 to 10. Nice to see Little Mix taking the lead, its the highest album sold yesterday.

 

Top 5 singles are looking set in concrete, maybe not for James Arthur, Maroon 5 could end up as a non mover at #5, once all data is collated.

Hopefully Kate Bush can remain Top 5 - she's on track for #4 but could be #5 if Olly Murs keeps climbing.

 

Little Mix should hold onto #1 but I wouldn't be surprised if Michael & Alfie overtook them next week, only to possibly remain #2 in favour of The Rolling Stones.

Yeah, to expand on what I said earlier I think it'll go

 

this week (2nd) :

 

#1 Little Mix

#2 Michael & Alfie

#3 Elvis

 

next week (9th):

#1 Rolling Stones

#2 Michael & Alfie

#3 Little Mix

 

16th

#1 Michael & Alfie

#2 Little Mix

#3 Rolling Stones

 

23rd

#1 Little Mix (assuming they have more promo/XF before this)

#2 Michael & Alfie

#3 Elvis

The Weeknd simply cannot be bombing this hard. Probably some sales are missing or something. Would be shocked if he really missses the top 5 on Friday.

 

Little Mix slaying :cheer: They are on track to sell, ~55k, right?

Yeah, to expand on what I said earlier I think it'll go

Yeah I think that sounds like a sensible prediction, baring any unconfirmed promo slots that may be announced in the meantime. It definitely feels like it's between Little Mix and Michael & Alfie for Christmas #1 in the albums; they're certainly the main stand outs of who stands a chance of hitting 100k+ this December, potentially Elvis as well and maybe Robbie given it seems there is a lot of promo coming up for him (an ITV show and potentially a performance before the New Year's Eve fireworks on the BBC).

Is Charli still #40?

Where is Christmas by Michael Buble today?

The Christmas Number 1 Album has always been a multi-week number 1, likely to continue that trend this year. Agree with Joe on the top 3 Albums but may be in different order dependent on how the promotion goes.

There will be yesterday's streaming missing but streaming barely effects the album chart (despite his massive streams), so yes, he is bombing this hard :P

 

Is Charli still #40?

No, she's fallen out, she'd be in the update if she was still top 40 :kink:

 

Where is Christmas by Michael Buble today?

#14!

Thanks, he's up 1 place from Monday then!

I expected Ellie to be top 40 in the mids :(
