May 17, 20223 yr from the occ site: A very special Official Charts Company update shows Sam has rocketed overnight past Cat Burns and her hit Go, and now currently sits at Number 2. Just 1,880 chart sales separate SPACE MAN from Harry Styles' Number 1 As It Was. Will Sam be able to catch up? It's all to play for before the Official Singles Chart is unveiled this Friday - but he'll need the UK's help to get him there.

Sam closing the gap by 2,434 in 24 hours :o It's going to be close but I think Harry might just edge it depending on the lead he can continue on Spotify! Physicals and Digital Sales could make it closer though!
May 17, 20223 yr keep streaming guys! and if you can buy a cd single! it would be amazing if sam could get the #1!
May 17, 20223 yr I am tempted to drop 99p for a download to help Sam out here, it looks like it could be very close. (He would catch up at his current rate but that's his peak streaming day accounted for now)
May 17, 20223 yr Ooh, exciting! Don't want to tempt fate but I think Sam could just about do it :D has he got any more promo lined up for the week? Loose Women, One Show, that sort of thing? Could make all the difference. Edited May 17, 20223 yr by Mangø
May 17, 20223 yr Let’s get Sam to #1. This Friday might be his only chance as Harry will more likely get it next Friday following the album release
May 17, 20223 yr Ooh, exciting! Don't want to tempt fate but I think Sam could just about do it :D has he got any more promo lined up for the week? Loose Women, One Show, that sort of thing? Could make all the difference. He was on Breakfast and Lorraine this morning. He was on The One Show last night.

Yessss! :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: Rooting hard for Sam to pull this off now and get to #1. It's good to have a genuinely exciting chart battle for the first time in a very long while.
May 17, 20223 yr they should definitely put the track on 59p and push for it on social media, that's what's gonna cut it, not the streams he's still doing very well on iTunes and if he does 2K a day, that would make a difference
May 17, 20223 yr I am tempted to drop 99p for a download to help Sam out here, it looks like it could be very close. (He would catch up at his current rate but that's his peak streaming day accounted for now) Standard version is only 59p on iTunes :cheer: He was on Breakfast and Lorraine this morning. He was on The One Show last night. He also has Kiss Radio tomorrow - love that he’s literally done everything available to him. They should have knocked out some signed CD singles and added a remix or two to streaming.
May 17, 20223 yr Scott will probably help out too as he's announcing the chart and was with him on Saturday night. Would be great to finally have a Eurovision song let alone our own entry top the UK chart tbh. It doesn't happen at all really. Last one being 1996 and Harry will be back on top the following week anyway. The fact that it's so close there should definitely be more of a push for Sam imo. Not that 2 is bad at all still but since its extremely close.
May 17, 20223 yr I'm rooting for sam to get the number 1 as this week makes no difference to harry at all. If Sam does go number 1 it will be the 1st uk eurovision number 1 since Gina G.
May 17, 20223 yr It will be interesting to see if BBC try to encourage people to purchase Sam if it's close tomorrow
May 17, 20223 yr Very interesting posts above. I predict Sam Ryder will do it by under 1,000 sales by Friday
May 17, 20223 yr The promo is spot on, they just need to push streaming/downloads and the CD single like mad on socials now.
