June 2, 200817 yr I went for top three, although it wouldn't surprise me if it reached #1 or the lower end of the top ten.
June 2, 200817 yr Exactly what I was going to say. The same thing happened to David Cook (but much lower down). American Idol had a fraction of the viewers of Britain's Got Talent plus, I think this is a song that has truly captured the attention of the UK public in the last few days...even my 5 year old nephew said to me this morning that its his favourite song of the year and he idolises George Sampson! I think it will go to No.1 and fall quickly but fingers crossed radio/tv see its potential and re-add it
June 2, 200817 yr Guessing at #1. Think it will stay as iTunes download #1 until Wednesday, that may give it enough of a lead to last out the remainder of the week on total sales #1.
June 2, 200817 yr Still doing brilliantly on itunes i reckon it could make #1 even though a singing act did not win Sony bmg are still going to profit [this is one of their tracks :lol: ]
June 2, 200817 yr I really cant see rihanna knocking it off though as i imagine her downloads are falling now too. Will be interesting to see what happens. This "docs say i cant dance again because of a spinal disease" will only help sales too.
June 2, 200817 yr I think its definetly going to get intot he lower reaches of the top 10, but it would be amazing to see it get top 5, even though i think it will very soon start to drop some sales once the BGT effect wears off, but this song is such a tune and should be re-released properly
June 2, 200817 yr I love how there's three spots for it in the iTunes top 30 - 1, 13 and 24 - and again at No81. I also love how I could have downloaded a No1 of 2008 back in 2005.
June 2, 200817 yr It will entirely depend on how long it can keep up the momentum at the moment it's outselling Rihanna by more than 2:1 on iTunes alone and is still on the up. Over 13 million people watched BGT final it'd only take 40k (0.03%) of them to download Singin' In The Rain for it to be No1 this week. It’d be dangerous to discount it especially if it picks up radio play I think a lot of commercial radio stations will be caning it next week… Think of the 1,000,000 people who bought Shayne Wards X factor single. Although it is actually orientated around the music there about a bit less than 10% of x factor final viewers. I think he could get over 65 thousand purchases, with word of mouth spreading it.
June 2, 200817 yr Still #1 on iTunes. Its probably peaked now in sales per day terms. I see a run of... 28-1-3-11-21-34-49-56-67-x People will be spreading it to people who haven't watched BGT.
June 2, 200817 yr I have nothing against this song. I actually quite like it. Though it'll be awful if it gets to #1. I hate it when old songs re-chart. Like Phil Collins and Snap! etc. :( Stupid public. I imagine it'll be #1 2moro though end up at about #3 or #4 by the end of the week.
June 2, 200817 yr He can't dance again or something the doctors say. I saw it on the front of a newspaper. I'm sure the media will get behind the song to get to the top. :rolleyes:
June 2, 200817 yr He can't dance again or something the doctors say. I saw it on the front of a newspaper. I'm sure the media will get behind the song to get to the top. :rolleyes: Why should they? It's not his song, he just danced to it. I doubt they'll really care. Rihanna for 1!!!!!!!
June 2, 200817 yr Why should they? It's not his song, he just danced to it. I doubt they'll really care. Rihanna for 1!!!!!!! Are we thinking of the same media here? Cos if so you really don't know them. Especially trash coloumns like The Sun. Not being mean to you or anything cos heck I don't even know you. Rihanna for #1 all the way innit. B)
June 2, 200817 yr it would make my week if the song made number 1 (thats kinda sad..really) just compare this to the ting tings and rihanna, wins by miles imo interestingly enough i bought it in the U.S. (that shows u the push of youtube) its already made top 50 in the US iTunes Electronic Top 100
June 2, 200817 yr Looking at the popularity bar on itunes it the song at number 1 is outselling Rihanna by about 3-1... and there is also 3 other entries in the top 100 and two in the 2 of which in the top 40 I reckon its safe to say the song will be number 1
