April 9, 20187 yr Wow at The Courteeners shifting over 10k with what appears to just be a re-recorded version of one of their old albums. Who knew they had such a committed fanbase ~ Yes, that is quite impressive. All their five Studio Albums have peaked between #3 and #6 , that run likely to continue with this Re:Wired Album although unlikely to improve on the peak position of the original Album ('St.Jude') which peaked at #4.
April 9, 20187 yr What's the reasoning behind the Lorde - Melodrama climb up the album chart? :huh: Perhaps bathgate has helped :lol:
April 9, 20187 yr Would love to see Dancing hang on in there for a top 40 slot. If they have any cop they#d swop the planned SMFF performance tonight and do Dancing instead... Edited April 9, 20187 yr by Mullo
April 9, 20187 yr Perhaps bathgate has helped :lol: of course... well they say any publicity is good publicity! :D
April 9, 20187 yr Wasn't expecting Ruti to be Number 1 on the midweeks. Great to see a fresh Top 3 anyhow and 3 new entries in the Top 10 is also very welcome. Drake wil probably end up Top 3 I'd say and Freaky Friday going back to Number 1. Great sales for Kylie over in the albums. She has Number 1 in the bag!
April 9, 20187 yr Vinyl release I think OMG at Lorde manipulating the charts with her multiple release formats!!!1111!!!
April 9, 20187 yr I said to another mod 30 minutes ago that you'd post 'If Ed Sheeran added Cassettes to his first chart week you'd all be fuming'. Well done for being so predicable. Ed Sheeran uses loads of different sales tactics and sells 10x more than Kylie and bar some eye rolls, nobody seems that bothered. I had no idea I was so popular you were discussing me :heart: So I'm consistent in my views is what you are saying.

April 9, 20187 yr Wait the fabled vinyl release of 'Melodrama' has finally actually happened? I really don't get why it wasn't available on vinyl immediately but yass quen. x Lorde for #1 (I demand 5 different cassette formats from her as well x) Anyway, yeah, can't see Ruti topping Stevie's sales unless she somehow holds up far better than previous Voice singles have done. I guess this is still a marked improvement on Kevin and Mo though for what it's worth.
April 9, 20187 yr Impressed that Cardi B is top ten with Apple Music and downloads only (no Spotify streams and physical is not even available yet)
April 9, 20187 yr I wonder where Ruti will get to overall on Friday? Top 10 is looking assured but how high is difficult to gauge, dark red on kworb now but has held up better than some predicted.
April 9, 20187 yr Top 10 is looking assured but how high is difficult to gauge, dark red on kworb now but has held up better than some predicted. I think with streaming entered into everything she'll probably just pull off top 40. Especially as she'll probably plummet throughout the week on sales
April 9, 20187 yr I think with streaming entered into everything she'll probably just pull off top 40. Especially as she'll probably plummet throughout the week on sales Based on last week's chart she would have made Top 20 with her current Sales. EDIT - Actually not quite but there is an error in the Sales thread for last week with The Weeknd's Sales, still think she will make Top 10. Edited April 9, 20187 yr by timjimlee
April 9, 20187 yr Dumb question, but with regards to Thursday streams always being estimated by the OCC, is that just done by adding 16.67% (ie the average of the prior 6 days) to the counted streams? I doubt it will affect the result of the chart to any note, but it would mean that Drake's Saturday released single would get a relatively slight underestimation compared to everything else that had streams on Friday.
April 9, 20187 yr Do album streams massively affect the overall chart? How does it work with Spotify when people are generally streaming tracks, rather than downloading a whole album? Sorry if a dumb question, but I'm learning... :P Could streaming additions stop Kylie getting #1?
