It will be touch and go for Will Young to get the number 1 officially, i hope he can hold on.

Excuse my ignorance but are the figures physicals and digital downloads only at this stage with streams added at the end of the week?

Streaming is included in the midweeks, although not all streaming data is always available but any missing data is listed where it says Missing Data. So this week most streaming data for Tuesday is missing!

pull through jealousy jealousy

Really like 'Jealousy Jealousy' but sad it has to knock 'Favorite Crime' out which I only began to adore this week (not that Scott ever seems to play her album tracks on the chart show unless they are new). But great Olivia's got a 7th top 40 hit this year already!

Fight in the album chart

 

Will Young - Has reduced everything on his website and is doing personalised signed albums via Banquet

 

Billie - Just released 500 bundles of 4 cassettes and a CD with a signed postcard for £20 which sold out in 10 minutes

Im glad Will is at least trying something to secure number 1, i hope it works.

Ugh, I know this is standard practice now and I don't blame Billies team at all, but I really hope Will holds on.

Hope Billie holds on to that #4 peak!

 

I can't see how she won't, she's now zoomed ahead of Becky and built up a sizeable lead over her.

 

Keeping all my crossables crossed for Will to hold #1 in the albums, that would be such a fantastic achievement for him!

guess that each bundle of 4 cassette and 1 CD counts as 5 sales? then Billie did 2500 sales in 10 minutes :o

I mean good for Billie and all but it's annoying when she has already had the #1 spot that she is doing this uggghhh!

 

If I order on his official website will the sale be counted for this week? I'm quite tempted to purchase the vinyl it looks very pretty!

Hope save your tears not increase sales need get acr on Friday

How many editions has Billie released, if Will Young does hold on it will be all the more impressive due to the fact he has only released 1 cassette, 1 CD and 1 vinyl.

Billie had 8 different vinyls

not sure bout Will, I know at least 3 different vinyl variants but there might be more

3 different vinyls? I only saw one on his website (and I caved and bought it). I've got nothing against Billie, good on her for playing the game and going for it, but I so want Will to get another #1 album he deserves it after such a long career. :wub:

his site had the black vinyl and that turquoise marble variant, at least last time I checked

there is also a teal variant from HMV I believe

In a way I'd quite love for this to happen just to witness the meltdowns from a certain couple of people. :lol:

Oh they must have stopped doing that then since there is no black version on there anymore only the marble one. I've just looked at the HMV one, it's not as nice as the official one so no thanks lol!

 

Are you sure you didn't get mixed up with the Lexicon vinyl as that is still on there and that is a black vinyl.

Yes, they will mark it as processed and shipped prior to the cut off time tomorrow.

Billies team really wanting that 2nd week at #1 - CD is now £5.99 on Amazon and HMV (Including the HMV exclusive version).

 

 

Billie sold about 500/600 copies in signed bundles today and reduced her CD on amazon (she jumped back to 1 on there just now) and HMV. I think she'll be ahead of Olivia for sure but it might be close with Will!
