Posted January 21, 200817 yr Monday afternoon, and our guide/preview to next Sundays charts. When we do it the Luxembourg way, and bring you next week`s charts, before they happen!! We went out into HMV, Woolworths, WHSmith, Tesco, Asda, and 3 other lesser known regional shops, took note of Monday sales/charts, then we took a look, at Tesco, Woolworths, HMV, Itunes download charts. We took, the up to minute Radio/tv airplay chart, added the lot together, and came up with the following, for the most up to the minute chart news. So, today we got this Album top 20... 01 02 SCOUTING FOR GIRLS - SCOUTING FOR GIRLS 02 03 RAISING SAND - PLANT/KRAUSS 03 01 THIS IS THE LIFE - AMY MCDONALD 04 05 HAND BUILT BY ROBOTS - NEWTON FAULKNER 05 04 BEAUTIFUL WORLD - TAKE THAT 06 14 TRICK TO LIFE - HOOSIERS 07 08 BIG TUNES 2008 - VARIOUS ARTISTS 08 NE COOL - LUPE FIASCO 09 09 LIFE IN CARTOON MOTION - MIKA 10 16 GOOD GIRL GONE BAD - RIHANNA 11 11 MINISTRY OF SOUND ANTHEMS 91 - 08 - VARIOUS ARTISTS 12 21 GUIDE TO LOVE LOSS AND DESPERATION - WOMBATS 13 12 BACK TO BLACK - AMY WINEHOUSE 14 06 IN RAINBOWS - RADIOHEAD 15 10 ROBYN - ROBYN 16 NE THE RUSH - VARIOUS ARTISTS 17 17 NOW 68 - VARIOUS ARTISTS 18 13 SPIRIT - LEONA LEWIS 19 19 CLUBBERS GUIDE TO 2008 - VARIOUS ARTISTS 20 16 CALL ME IRRESPONSIBLE - MICHAEL BUBLE We also found today that, CATPOWER and JUKEBOX was no. 21, The EELS had 2 albums in the top 30, BRITISH SEA POWER had slumped to 23, TTIMBALAND had slumped, and BRITNEY was rising to top 25, CASCADA slumped, and FRANK by AMY WINEHOUSE had jumped back up to 26, other new entries came from BLACK MOUNTAIN and LIGHTSPEED CHAMPION. Next Monday (28th) ADELE, will probably have both number one album and single, and so could end the budget/sales clog up. ROBERT PLANT/ALISON KRAUSS are number one, in one store, and no. 2 in another. Can that possibly get to the top? On the singles/tracks front... 01 13 CHASING PAVEMENTS - ADELE 02 01 NOW YOU`RE GONE - BASSHUNTER 03 02 PIECE OF ME - BRITNEY 04 05 DON`T STOP THE MUSIC - RIHANNA 05 03 SUPERSTAR - LUPE FIASCO 06 NE RIDE IT - JAY SEAN 07 07 HOMECOMING - KANYE WEST 08 04 ROCKSTAR - NICKELBACK 09 06 CRANK THAT - SOULJA BOY 10 10 ELVIS AIN`T DEAD - SCOUTING FOR GIRLS 11 11 BE MINE - ROBYN 12 09 APOLOGISE - TIMBALAND/ONE REPUBLIC 13 NE WORK - KELLY ROWLAND 14 16 VALERIE - MARK RONSON/AMY WINEHOUSE 15 12 RULE THE WORLD - TAKE THAT 16 22 MOVING TO NEW YORK - WOMBATS 17 14 CALL THE SHOTS - GIRLS ALOUD 18 15 BLEEDING LOVE - LEONA LEWIS 19 08 WHEN YOU BELIEVE - LEON JACKSON 20 20 SOME KINDA RUSH - BOOTY LUV Today we also found that, T2 had slumped to 21, ALICIA KEYS was 22, MIKA was also hanging around with RELAX, AMY MCDONALD was back up, there were top 40 entries for BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE, MICHAEL JACKSON/WILL I AM (on downloads alone), and also MARY J. BLIGE (downloads again). There was also an entry for LITTLE ONES, and ORDINARY SONG. There did not seem to be any sign of J`LO, and HOLD IT DON`T DROP IT. JWith JAY SEAN doing well physically, and seemingly no downloads, can he really be in the top 10, on Sunday? How did we do last week? Well, out of the top 20, we had 18 songs in (but not nessecarily in the right order)!! We missed entries for COURTEENERS (who we had at 24, and we had WOMBATS at 22. So, pretty good, and similar on the album chart. Always we will be a bit out with downloads (as they increase, as the week progresses, i.e. ADELE last week opened in the top 15, but by Wednesday, she was at no.2)!! KELLY ROWLAND smashes to 13 today, combined with downloads and airplay. A clever boffin, predicted if she were available physically, she would prevail up to number 8 (will that be the high spot, for WORK)? How will it compare to Sunday`s new chart, and the mids, we will see!! I will add a chart from Luxembourg in 1986, see how they did then... This was broadcasted on Luxembourg, on Tuesday 21st Jan 1986. Supposebly, the chart for w/k ending 1st Feb 1986... 01 06 BROKEN WINGS - MISTER MISTER 02 23 PHANTOM OF THE OPERA - SARAH BRIGHTMAN/STEVE HARLEY 03 01 SUN ALWAYS SHINES ON TV - A-HA 04 20 ONLY LOVE - NANA MOUSKOURI 05 02 WALK OF LIFE - DIRE STRAITS 06 NE BORDERLINE - MADONNA 07 15 SUSPICIOUS MINDS - FYC 08 04 YOU LITTLE THIEF - FEARGAL SHARKEY 09 10 ALICE I WANT YOU JUST FOR ME - FULL FORCE 10 18 SYSEM ADDICT - FIVE STAR 11 11 WHO`S ZOOMIN` WHO - ARETHA FRANKLIN 12 12 IT`S ALRIGHT BABY`S COMING BACK - EURYTHMICS 13 03 WEST END GIRLS - PET SHOP BOYS 14 05 SATURDAY LOVE - CHERRELLE/ALEXANDER O` NEAL 15 21 SPIRIT OF 76 - THE ALARM 16 07 HIT THAT PERFECT BEAT - BRONSKI BEAT 17 NE PULL UP TO THE BUMPER/LA VIE EN ROSE - GRACE JONES 18 30 LIFE`S WHAT YOU MAKE IT - TALK TALK 19 09 RUSSIANS - STING 20 24 SHAKE YOUR FOUNDATIONS - AC/DC In 1986, they got 16 in the top 20, only one correct. MISTER MISTER was number one, in London in 86, but not nationally. And an over enthasized on the PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, that had a considerable amount of airplay on Luxy. They missed top 20 entries for BILLY OCEAN, SIMPLE MINDS, JAMES BROWN, and CLANNAD/BONO`s, IN A LIFETIME. At that point, the Luxembourg chart, was closer to the MRIB top 20.

January 21, 200817 yr Author Jay Sean will be so high? Never heard the tack :wacko: It seem`s so, it was selling apparently well, in HMV, and Woolies, but it does not appear to be on download charts. So, it`s selling good physically, even so in a small back street shop. But physical sales, usually get beaten by downloads, as the week, goes on...that could mean a drop, by the end of the week??

Maybe its big on an huge great Asian circuit that most people dont really know about???
January 21, 200817 yr Author Maybe its big on an huge great Asian circuit that most people dont really know about??? I remember it was championed by Kiss100, in December, and has popped up, on Capital too. I had actually forgotten, about Jay Sean totally. Of course he had 2 top 10 and 1 top 20 hits between 2003 - 04, and a top 30 album. He was dropped by Virgin after that, and subsequently got a new record deal elsewhere. So, this is the come back single, with an album available from March. Feels like an advert, that reply!! Edited January 21, 200817 yr by trevs
January 23, 200817 yr For anyone that wants to compare, Jay Sean is 6 places lower, how spooky is that.
