James Blunt doing very well with the reissue

 

I wonder has pink pony club a chance of making the top 10 this week with it staying at 11 all week.

Coldplay looking safe for top 4 now and James Blunt top 5.

I'd say Charli will be the number 1 album by the end of the week which I'm OK with but equally I want Paul Heaton to hold on as Charli could climb in the next few weeks.

Charli will get it for sure, she’s just added a bunch of signed artcards to everything on the webstore , plus streaming sales will give her a leg up

If sympathy didn’t have so much playlist support I’m sure PPC would get ahead

Is that decline for Coldplay normal?

 

NO. Selling only less than 5% on your second week after opening with almost 240K? Not normal for sure.

To be fair there have been plenty of examples of fanbase albums selling say 25k in Week 1 and 1-2k in Week 2, so I guess it is like a 10x inflated version of that.
Too much deadwood from late last year/early this year still lingering around the top 40 like bad smells

 

Yeh but the top 10 looks so refreshed!

Tbf Taylor went from 190k actual sales to 10k in week 2. Coldplay just don't have the streaming to maintain momentum unlike her
Yeh the streams were 6k last week so it’s no real shock to me.
Using the Wed mid data I take it's a 97% decline for Coldplay which is nuts
oh RIP Liam Payne :/ too late for a chart effect I guess

I imagine it’ll be enough to impact next week, especially considering how popular 1D were and how many fans they had. Such a tragic loss

Charli/Paul might be closer than expected as Paul was on Lorraine today and has slashed his album to try for #1; he’d also restocked his signed CDs and his vinyl which was out of stock this week; he is heavily promoting it.

 

He probably only needs an additional 3K sales from his Tuesday closing position to get #1 which with more signed CDs, the vinyl restocked, the price slashing and his TV appearances and heavy social media push really doesn’t seem impossible now; I’d argue it’s more likely than not

the lack of vinyl really hurt him cos he barely sold 500 copies a day since Monday

Taylor might buy a few copies

RIP Liam Payne

 

Love Night Changes, by far the best 1D song - hope it can rechart.

Ah I didn't realise Paul's sales had slowed down due to it being out of stock, promoting on Lorraine will definitely help as that's his target audience. Hoping Charli still gets it, I don't think she will have much chance after this week.
