Posted June 20, 200718 yr White Stripes album set for chart peak 19 June 2007 - 11:24:45 Source: Music Week XL's The White Stripes’ Icky Thump looks almost certain to debut at the top of the albums charts this weekend, with early retail reports indicating it is outstripping the next best seller, the Warner-handled Traveling Wilburys Collection, by about two to one. Interscope/Poydor artist Enrique Iglesias, meanwhile, is looking good for a top five berth with his latest set, Insomniac, and Calvin Harris is flying the flag for Columbia, with I Created Disco being the only other new release to make it into the midweek sales Top 10. In fact, only two other new releases look set to make it into the Top 40 – Ghosts’ The World Is Outside could make a Top 10 debut for Atlantic as sales pick up, but Justice's album, Cross, which is released by former EMI executive Emmanuel de Buretel’s Because label, will do well to improve on its current position just inside the Top 30. In the singles charts, it appears the public are keeping their hands in their pockets ahead of festival season, with only four new releases looking set to make it into the Top 40. At the top of the chart, it seems likely that Def Jam/Mercury’s Rihanna will retain the number one spot with Umbrella, although Lee Mead’s charity single Any Dream Will Do is making a decent competition of it and is expected to move from its debut position of 18 high into the Top 10 on Sunday. Editors’ Smokers Outside the Hospital Door (Kitchenware/Columbia) is making a similarly impressive sprint up the ladder from last week’s 30 and should make the top five, while on the back of their shows at Wembley Stadium, Muse’s live rendition of Map Of The Problematique is ton course to be the sole new entry in the Top 20. Elsewhere, other Top 40 entries could come from Hoosiers’ with Worried About Ray (Sony BMG) and Ash with Polaris (Infectious/Warner), while speculation about a Spice Girls does not seem to be beenefiting Melanie C’s profile too much as her latest release Carolyna is struggling to break into the singles chart Top 30. ===================================================== Singles 01 Rihanna feat.

June 22, 200718 yr Author I've opened this thread up just in case anyone does not want to shift thru pages on the other thread topic. Back in 30 to set the cover voting thread for the cover design comp.
June 22, 200718 yr Why isn't Lee Mead falling, he's sliding down faster than a whore's drawers on iTunes but staying put on the official chart. :arrr:
June 22, 200718 yr one word- physicals!!!!!!!! I really wouldn't have imagined he'd do that much on physicals to hold up, it's such a crying shame. :(
June 22, 200718 yr I think Enrique MIGHT take #2 but Joseph will deffo be top 3 though I reckon it'll have a worse chartrun than McFly's recent #1. :teresa: Really hope Paramore can stay top 40 <3
June 22, 200718 yr lmao at Melanie C!! top 50 now :lol: Gareths sog aint that bad actually better then the last one....hpe it makes top 20 :D
June 22, 200718 yr lmao at Melanie C!! top 50 now :lol: Oh yeah, cos its fukking hilarious aint it -_-
June 22, 200718 yr Oh yeah, cos its fukking hilarious aint it -_- er yer cos it was top 30 i heard earlier in the week......
June 22, 200718 yr Thought Gareth was in the top 20 :( Looks like Avril and the Hoosiers have come above him with downloads :( Obviously I am nervous for Gareth's chart position but at least this week's chart seems to have had some competition, making it a little more interesting.
June 22, 200718 yr Simon Webbe's falling a bit then, I reckon he might just miss the top 40 by Sunday :o :o
June 22, 200718 yr Top 40 actually, and that still dont make it funny - a decent artist, failing. oh well there are many artists that do its just the way things go -_-
June 23, 200718 yr Mel is good. and if she had a good song she would do better. really glad for Rihanna. hope she makes it a few more weeks. I reckon she will do it for 2 more yet :P && yay for Calvin Harris :D
