Agreed holding back the physicals beyond first week hype is actually a wise decision in this case which could get it another week in the upper reigons. They have probably seen and reflected on the 4-18 and 11-52 drops of Jesy and LeAnn.

 

True but does 13-15 look any better?

was gonna same the same, I'd rather 4-34 than 22-23

pretty sure they'll send the physicals this week,

they've been announced for ages so sure they're ready to go

Really difficult to call the order today for Sabrina, Dua and Perrie.

Cool to see English Teacher at #6 in the albums *.*

 

I read that there was a new Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd vinyl variant coming out (festival edition) so I assume that's why Lana is back.

Why's Maggie Rogers there twice?

 

Totally had no idea The Feeling had a new album out!

Who the hell is/are English Teacher?!

 

Wow at James taking an early lead, though it probably won't last if there's only 3k in it. Would be cool for them to finally get a #1 studio album though, they definitely deserve one by now.

 

That's a terrible start for The Feeling, although their last two albums missed the top 40 too so I guess they just don't have much of a fanbase these days compared to other bands of their ilk/era.

English Teacher, slay !

No one seems to care about The Feeling anymore, which is sad as they're still quite a good band.

Climb Amy climb.

 

No idea who James is. A strange mononym to have.

Why's Maggie Rogers there twice?

Copy and paste error, Future & Metro Boomin are #10 :magic:

Will be interesting to see where Perrie is at…

No idea who James is. A strange mononym to have.

Even more strangely, they're actually a band.

 

They've been around since the 80s and had multiple big hits in the 90s anyhow so unsurprisingly have built up a sizeable fanbase since.

Bey should be #3 on albums with the physicals in stores.

Really difficult to call the order today for Sabrina, Dua and Perrie.

 

Dua>Perrie>Sabrina

I bought that Linkin Park album the other day. A good collection, especially as they never licensed any material to Now or Hits albums so I owned very little of their stuff.

 

Could hang around a bit lower down as they didn't have a previous hits album and all of the streams of their classics will be attached to it.

 

Official Chart Update

Full update now in the post above!

wow 14.5 for James is great, think they could easily hold on!

 

James were one of the greatest British bands of the 90s, their hit Sit Down is a classic

Hoping all of Perrie, Dua & Sabrina can stay in the Top 10, preferably with Sabrina on top!

Could be pretty close between James and Beyoncé for the #1 album then, and seems Future & Metro would have been blocked again even if they did repeat the sales of their first collab.

 

Nice surprise to see English Teacher so high! (@ Mango they're an indie/post-punk band who I believe have been supported a lot by 6Music, probably best known on BuzzJack for the (brilliant) song 'R&B' which was sent to BJSC a couple of months ago).
