Apparently back when it was released, they said it would only be available for 99 days! Perhaps the bump this week were people purchasing it for the final time they could?

 

I had a brief skim of the Rolling Stone article but didn't realise it had been withdrawn altogether

Interesting… :w00t:

Cringe! He is so full of it. Cold Heart is deservedly #1. He can stick those signed CDs where the sun don't shine

What's going on with SAULT? Album charting as a new entry but it's disappeared from streaming?

 

The gimmick of this album was that it was only available to stream for 99 days and would then be removed. It appears it got a vinyl release this week to coincide with that.

 

(edit: oops I am late to answering this xx but yeah the release date for the vinyl seems to be 8th October, I don't know if it was available in physical form before that)

I am pleased indeed to see James Blake's fake cassettes showing up! *.* Although he's still at least a few hundred below the sales 'Assume Form' had in its Tuesday update (again no sales were provided but he had overtaken The Twilight Sad's album which was on 3.6k the previous day). I expect there's still a high likelihood it slips out of the top 5 by the end of the week but it should now be secure to stay in the top 10 at least?

 

Also LOL at that Ed Sheeran clip flying directly in the face of so many things people have said about him on here. But I see everyone is already updating their mental gymnastics in response to it. Never change BuzzJack x

Hope Glass Animals climb yet again to a new peak of no.4 - reckon they'll overtake Jesy and Nicki but not sure if that Central Cee thing will overtake last minute.

I'm pretty sure Jesy will have dropped below Heat Waves by Friday and can see it getting yet another new peak at #4.

 

I really can't see it going any further than that though with Adele out next week and Shivers and Cold Heart not due for ACR.

Cringe! He is so full of it. Cold Heart is deservedly #1. He can stick those signed CDs where the sun don't shine

 

The only reason Cold Heart has a chance to go #1 is because of … signed CDs? Am I wrong?

oh very nice climb x James Blake!!! we love fake cassette sales!!!

Have the signed CDs been included yet does anyone know? I really hope some must still be added

 

Ed Sheeran is making out if it's only #1 because he hasn't made signed CDs available and he is doing Cold Heart some sort of a favour. What an @ss.

Oh my that Ed video, the cringefest :D

 

let's see if he will also let Adele be #1 next week :D

Great to see Jesy at 3! Hope she can somehow hold onto the Top 5!

Of course they are included. Ed is #1 on Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer and probably is on Amazon Music with all versions combined.

Well she's certainly had an "interesting" promotional strategy.....

Ed is literally joining you guys in the anti Ed campaign and he gets called cringe for it. Would you guys have preferred if he did try to stay at #1??? Lmao

 

He's not saying Elton is 'only #1 because he isn't releasing signed CDs', he's saying that he could release more signed CDs to try and stay #1 but is not doing so because he wants Elton to be #1, you'd have thought that would make people here happy... :')

 

But you know he's so obsessed with getting that Bryan Adams record that he has never mentioned even once and will stop at nothing to get it. x

Hopefully Ed‘s gonna drop every single signed cd he has now… :dance:

Go on Ed, release those CDs, you know you want to :lol:

Who doesn't love a good battle for #1 :D only had one in the last 6 months...

Of course they are included. Ed is #1 on Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer and probably is on Amazon Music with all versions combined.

How much of those streams is ad-funded though? Cold Heart has a good lead on iTunes. 2 versions top 40 and gaining a lot on Spotify since Friday

It will be a close battle anyway, judging by today's Spotify numbers I think Cold Heart's lead will be have reduced by Thursday. Just hoping it holds on.

 

It's quite nice to have a bit of uncertainty about the #1 and something to root hard for a change though (especially before 'Adele Week' :lol: ). Been a while since I was this keen for a midweek leader to hold on to #1.

So Cold Heart is #1 because he wants it to be? What a kind and wonderful gesture! Ed Sheeran for prime minister

Apparently Jesy's music video streams haven't been counted yet, if that's true I imagine she'll stay at #3 (sadly)

 

wow at James Blake's increase :o hard to tell if that's enough to guarantee a top 10 place yet, but it looks unlikely to be his lowest peaking album now which is good

wish we had some breakdowns to put things into perspective.

 

I believe last week Shivers was at 6k+ download sales...this week Cold Heart is overselling Shivers but that don't mean much, it could just be hundred copies difference!!!
