Mumford & Sons doing 3 HMV signings this week, Litte Mix are doing 1 - capacity for each every is 500.

 

Ah ha - interesting chart battle

M&S will def be more frontloaded I feel. I think they had A LOT of tour bundles and it's "only" a 5k lead? I think Buble and LM will overcome them (unless M&S have some promo lined up that we dont know about aha)

 

I don't think tour bundles count to the UK chart?

I think what they mean is that if you pre-order the album you get access to a pre-sale for the tour

 

but not a tour bundle as in the US where they get the CD for free if you buy a concert tix and that counts for the charts

Yes this is different to the US - people had to buy the CD for £10 to get a pre-sale code, Bublé is currently doing the same with HMV for his tour.

LM & Bubke will def sell well through the week as it's Xmas shopping galore out there from now til Xmas!

I've no idea how things are looking but I've voted Mumford & Sons

Oh look at that I was right.

 

If Muse released this week, they woulda been #4, so imagine next week for them!!

Na they still should outsell 45k easy that muse needed

It'll be Little Mix. Michael Bublé at #2 or top 5 at least.

 

Yeah. That didn't age at all well that prediction, did it now?

Buble deserves the No1 based on Forever Now alone, just beautiful and a perfect ballad about his son!!

Sales

Predictions

 

1) LM 95k

2) Buble 70k

3) M&S 48k

4) TGS 40k

 

Not the worst predictions - number 1 wrong though!

Beatles White album to remain at no. 1 for a second week.

Muse will beat it the first week. :P

 

The first week yes, but not the second week.

 

20 The Beatles 8,553

21 Muse 7,982

 

 

 

1. Buble 112k

2. MandS 100k

 

3-5 LM 14k

 

:teresa: :teresa:

 

Except they sold 4 times that. :lol:

And the other 2 sold half of that

Got the positions spot on. Take off the Mumford and Buble slight exaggerations and add them to that awful album at three, and I even got the overall figure between the three right!!

 

#psychicbeaver

Haha more like anti-psychic :)

Weren't you going on about how their streaming would be huge and they would walk the no.1? :P

Your estimation 112 + 100+ 14 = 226 k

Actual 65 + 58 + 57 = 180 k

 

226k - 180k = 46k

 

46/226*100= 20.3% error so really you weren’t even close

Wow how close is that, plus all the positions correct!! I only inflated the sales predix as everyone else had high sales numbers anhway
