Harry Styles put an end to Ed Sheeran's 13 weeks at #1 last week, but will he be able to hold him off for a second week? Perhaps Clean Bandit & Zara Larsson's collaboration 'Symphony' can climb to the top spot instead? Or maybe Lady Gaga's surprise release of 'The Cure' will be victorious? Elsewhere in the chart, Cheat Codes & Demi Lovato's 'No Promises', Anton Powers & Pixie Lott's 'Baby', G-Eazy & Kehlani's 'Good Life' may climb into the Top 40, as well as comeback single 'Lights Out' from Royal Blood potentially debuting.

 

Despite its physical release being a week away, Kendrick Lamar's HUMBLE. looks set to make a big debut thanks to downloads and streams. However, Ed Sheeran's album sales are still riding high - will it be enough to dethrone him? Also expect new entries from John Mayer's The Search For Everything and Tinie Tempah's Youth.

NO OTHER SALES INFO

Don't expect an update tomorrow due to it being a Bank Holiday. Earliest midweek updates may be Wednesday.

John Mayer to slay please. New album is SUBLIME.

I hadn't realised he had new music out :mellow:

 

"Slow Dancing In A Burning Room" is incredible :wub:

I expect Ed Sheeran will re-claim the number one spot with 'Shape of You'.

 

I reckon we'll have a debut from Lady Gaga, I'd say she'll manage a low top 20 position! I wouldn't doubt Andra Day going top 40 either to be honest! New additions to the top 40 will also include J Hus, Louisa Johnson, Kendrick Lamar, Cheat Codes and mayyybbbee Anton Powers & Pixie Lott!

 

Kendrick Lamar will debut at #2 and Tinie Tempah may struggle for a top 20 position if iTunes is anything to go by.

"Heatstroke" will drop out of the top 40 on Friday because people aren't moving on from "Slide", even R1 have moved on from "Slide"

I think Shape of You will go to #1 this week, which will be helped by an extra day off. And next week we might finally see Clean Bandit at #1 but for that they have to hold up and not start falling in sales/streams.

Tbh I don't blame them :lol:

Predictions for Gaga? I'm saying #18!

Around 25/30 I'd say, if it holds up on iTunes decently.

I might have to say it could just scrape top 40, just depends if the track doesn't trail off later in the week.

They have, they took 'Slide' off and replaced it with 'Heatstroke' on Friday!

That's what I meant. I meant even R1 have moved on so why can't other people

Capital generally moves slower even with Calvin!

Hmm doesn't sound like there's a chart update unless Panjabi MC is in the top 40 :lol:

 

(I did it on karaoke last night so I probably made it go viral)

A FAR better karaoke choice would be “Barbra Streisand” by Duck Sauce.

Hmm I don't think that requires much effort in comparison to "Mundian To Bach Ke" :lol:
