what will be tragic is if Mariah is #1 again but denied the #1 cos of madeup-ACR :/

So Poker Face through it cover version will now get an Xmas no.1 to its name and several more weeks at no.1!! :cheer:

 

Just realised what Sweet but Psycho is, its a mix of Gaga's Pokerface and Paparazzi, if you mix the 2 songs you get Sweet but Psycho :D :D :D

This is likely to happen. I'm sure she would have been at number 1 in yesterday's mids if it wasn't for the track being on ACR.

 

Yeah it would have been, Wham! would be midweek #2 too!

It really isn't

But... would that wear off after Xmas day like last year, the tracks soon plummeted.

 

 

Mint Royale just tweeted the following:

 

"Well this is exciting! The Ladbaby song has overtaken Ava Max! We might have a novelty Christmas Number 1 again!!! #exciting"

 

Surely this doesn't account for the previous day's streams which are always missing though, which should add another 7/8k for Ava?

And might still be some missing YouTube streams too?

 

AAAAHH. Need to see sales figures!

Yes LadBaby back up to number 1 in today's midweeks - looks likely that “We Built This City” is certain to debut at least #2 as he's already outsold what Ariana Grande had (up to Thursday) last week, and she's down about 10%.

Ladbaby has sold more by this stage of the week than Ariana managed last week, and yes, it’s 95% downloads

 

For ref: Grande had sold 42.6K at this point last week. Ava Max is on track for around 55K or so..

Oh ffs :( What a tragic #1.

 

Ah well, I guess it'll drop off immediately next week. Just worried Ladbaby will get it this week, Mariah the following and then Ava may have potentially dropped off by then to get #01.

@MintRoyale

10% ahead, sold 14k downloads yesterday it seems, if it keeps up anything like that pace YouTube is irrelevant. I don’t know exactly what’s included so far but he’s sold more than Ariana had by this stage last week

How the F did he sell 14k downloads yesterday?!

I still take Mint Royale's statement with a pinch of salt

14k downloads in a day makes absolutely no sense as his lead has stayed the same if not dropped off a bit yesterday?

So Ava on 40K, LadBaby on 44K. Not a foregone conclusion by any means IMO. Probably needs to do another 11K today to take the #1.

It is weird. Digital Sales Data is now saying he's done 10k in last 24 hours when it was more like 7k a couple days ago, and like you say his lead over Ava hasn't changed much in the last 48 hours.

OCC Left out Amazon HD Isn't that standard downloads?

 

That explains it then as he's probably selling mega amounts on Amazon.

Yes, Amazon are probably as big as (if not bigger than) iTunes in this low sales environment- so you could be right!

Unless there's loads of streams missing it does look like he's going to do it.

 

DAMN.

Super cringe. Come on Ava (or Ariana)!

What a CRAP #1 it's not even a good Novelty song.

 

Once again Christmas number 1 is a JOKE.
