112. Alma - Chasing Highs

 

A potential future smash? Already been top 20 in Germany and has hit the top 75 in Ireland

112. Alma - Chasing Highs

 

A potential future smash? Already been top 20 in Germany and has hit the top 75 in Ireland

Very likely, it's doing well on Spotify! Could be a low top 40 hit with Radio 1 support.q

Predictions for Official debuts then?

xx | Carly Rae Jepsen - Cut To The Feeling

xx | Dua Lipa - Homesick (feat. Chris Martin)

xx | Halsey - Strangers (feat. Lauren Jaregui)

xx | Little Mix - Power (feat. Stormzy)

xx | Lorde - Homemade Dynamite

xx | Martin Garrix - There For You (feat. Troye Sivan)

xx | NEIKED - Call Me (feat. Mimi)

xx | Nick Jonas - Remember I Told You (feat. Anne-Marie & Mike Posner)

xx | Rita Ora - Your Song

xx | Sia - To Be Human (feat. Labrinth)

I guess NONE of these can make the top 40 appearance in their first week. Except for Little Mix probably, such big names are credited there, also I used to underestimate the girl band power here in UK. Maybe some random act like Sia/Labrinth will make it, but I can't see them doing THAT well.

Predictions for Official debuts then? (not iTunes, end of week in the official chart)

 

48 | Carly Rae Jepsen - Cut To The Feeling

27 | Dua Lipa - Homesick (feat. Chris Martin)

xx | Halsey - Strangers (feat. Lauren Jaregui)

7 | Little Mix - Power (feat. Stormzy)

xx | Lorde - Homemade Dynamite

19 | Martin Garrix - There For You (feat. Troye Sivan)

68 | NEIKED - Call Me (feat. Mimi)

33 | Nick Jonas - Remember I Told You (feat. Anne-Marie & Mike Posner)

16 | Rita Ora - Your Song

42 | Sia - To Be Human (feat. Labrinth)

 

^^ No More Sad Songs debuted low Top 40, so why do you think Power would debut Top 10?

 

I'd be surprised if Carly debuted that high too.

Doubt it'll be top 10, but bare in mind No More Sad Songs was released the same day as Divide by Ed Sheeran, so it was 13 places lower than it would've otherwise been!

 

(also Stormzy is a LOT bigger than MGK)

I don't think it'll debut as high as #7, but Stormzy's name will probably get it off to a much faster start than Machine Gun Nobody. He's the biggest UK rapper at the moment, and his Shape of You remix gave that song a huge boost. Also, there was a Sheeran onslaught.

Given how shite sales are LM with the aid of Stormzy should go at least to 3 on iTunes (I'm guessing the top 2 will hold up a bit)
Also they're launching the song on Britain's Got Talent and the video is meant to come out this week too. All signs point to a top 20 hit (possible top 10).

I think people will buy and stream Power a lot more than No More Sad Songs for reasons already mentioned, but also because it's Little Mix and they're masters at getting big summer hits. I think in time this could be the next Black Magic perhaps.

 

Carly's chart position will depend of Radio 1 playlist her or not tomorrow.

BGT is the 4th, so it might not go top 10 straight away but I think it will after that, even for just one week.

 

Run Away with Me couldn't peak higher than #58 with 2 weeks on the R1 A list and UK promo, Cut to the Feeling will not go top 100.
