Posted June 16, 200817 yr Another Monday, another guide to what the chart might look like, on Sunday. Thanks, to Dave for doing the thread last Monday. Actually, when I looked at his results last week, I thought it didn`t look that good. He proved the gang right though, because there wasn`t much movement, in the top 20, at all, last night! So, today (with thanks to Peter Jay, and John McManus, for their help) here is what we came up with, when adding up equations, from HMV, WOOLWORTHS, ASDA, SAINSBURY`S, ZAVVI, iTunes, and other download sites. Firstly, the Album preview... 01 01 VIVA LA VIDA - COLDPLAY 02 NE SILENT CRY - FEEDER 03 07 CHILLED 91 - 08 - VARIOUS 04 NE PURE URBAN ESSENTIALS SUMMER 08 - VARIOUS 05 02 ROCKFERRY - DUFFY 06 03 HOME BEFORE DARK - NEIL DIAMOND 07 NE LITTLE VOICE - SARA BARIELLES 08 NE TAKE MY BREATH AWAY - VARIOUS 09 04 HERE WE STAND - FRATELLIS 10 10 22 DREAMS - PAUL WELLER 11 05 TOP GEAR ANTHEMS 2008 - VARIOUS 12 NE SKY DIVIN` - DARREN STYLES 13 13 BEST OF - RADIOHEAD 14 12 HERE I STAND - USHER 15 08 BEST OF - NEIL DIAMOND 16 17 CHANT - CISTERCIAN MONKS 17 NE STRENGTH IN NUMBERS - THE MUSIC 18 NE VERY BEST OF - PETULA CLARK 19 18 JUMPING ALL OVER THE WORLD - SCOOTER 20 21 GOOD GIRL GONE BAD RELOADED - RIHANNA 21 NE THE ALBUM - WEEZER 22 23 ESSENTIAL - NEIL DIAMOND 23 31 ALL THE RIGHT REASONS - NICKELBACK 24 NE PACIFIC OCEAN BLUE - DENNIS WILSON 25 NE FLEET FOXES - FLEET FOXES 26 32 ESSNTIAL - PAUL SIMON 27 14 YOU CAN DO ANYTHING - ZUTONS 28 33 GREATEST HITS - GUNS N` ROSES 29 24 101 DRIVING SONGS - VARIOUS 30 25 CLUBBERS GUIDE SUMMER 08 - VARIOUS Outside the top 30 for this preview are TIESTO/VARIOUS (IN SEARCH OF SUNRISE) at 32, JUDAS PRIEST - NOSTRADAMUS 35, JESSE MCCARTNEY - DEPARTURE 36, INSOMNIA - VARIOUS ARTISTS 37, THE OFFSPRING - RISE AND FALL RAGE AND GRACE is in the top 50, and further down, top 60 (and downwards) there are ANDY FAIRWEATHER-LOW, A FINE FRENZY, AMY WINEHOUSE (FRANK THE DELUX EDITION), DEREK MEINS, CAGE THE ELEPHANT, UB40, and SONNY J. MARIAH CAREY and E=MC2 goes back up, into the top 50, as well. In the singles today, it was this preview... 01 13 VIVA LA VIDA - COLDPLAY 02 01 SINGIN` IN THE RAIN - MINT ROYALE 03 03 CLOSER - NE YO 04 07 SWEET ABOUT ME - GABRIELLA CILMI 05 02 TAKE A BOW - RIHANNA 06 05 THAT`S NOT MY NAME - TING TINGS 07 04 LOVE SONG - SARA BAREILLES 08 09 FOREVER - CHRIS BROWN 09 06 WARWICK AVENUE - DUFFY 10 12 HEARTBREAKER - WILL I.

On COLDPLAY "VIVA LA VIDA", we have it in, whatever...the biggest seller this week, in on-going downloads. I spoke to Dave, last night and he said that the 18,000+ download sales, mentioned in Music Week were the combined single/album downloads. He says, the album version had about 5,000+ downloads, that would have put it at 25. Will it be allowed in this week? IF NOT THEN A NUMBER ONE, could be denied...asking the question, What does OCC, really mean?! Last week the gang had 8 in the 10, 19 in the 20, 28 in the 30, and 35 in the 40 for the singles chart, and in the albums 10 in the 10, 15 in the 20, and just 23 in the top 30 combined chart. Back in the year 2000, we came up with this on Monday 12th June... 01 NE YOU SEE THE TROUBLE WITH ME - BLACK LEGEND 02 01 IT FEELS SO GOOD - SONIQUE 03 NE SANDSTORM - DARUDE 04 04 REACH - S CLUB 7 05 NE PORCELAIN - MOBY 06 NE THE ONE - BACK STREET BOYS 07 09 SHACKLES - MARY MARY 08 13 JERUSALEM - FAT LES 09 03 MAMA - RICHARD BLACKWOOD 10 07 OTB - YORK 11 NE MONEY TO BURN - RICHARD ASHCROFT 12 02 COMING AROUND - TRAVIS 13 05 WHEN A WOMAN - GABRIELLE 14 08 GIRLS LIKE THIS - BIS PROJECT 15 NE CALL ME - JAMELIA 16 NE THESE WOODEN IDEAS - IDLEWILD 17 NE GREAT ESCAPE 2000 - ENGLAND SUPPORTERS 18 NE E TYPE - CAMPIONE 2000 (THE OFFICIAL EURO 2000 FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS THEME) 19 NE KEVIN KENNEDY - BULLDOG NATION 20 06 IF I TOLD YOU - HOUSTON/MICHAEL 21 10 IT`S MY TURN - ANGELIC 22 15 THERE YOU GO - PINK 23 NE MC LIGHT AND BOB MARLEY 24 20 IT`S MY LIFE - BON JOVI 25 16 OOPS I DID IT AGAIN - BRITNEY SPEARS 26 18 FORGOT ABOUT DRE - DR DRE/EMINEM 27 11 NEW BEGINING - STPHEN GATELY 28 NE EELS - FLYSWATER 29 NE BIG PIMPIN` - JAY Z. 30 21 DON`T CALL ME BABY - MADISON AVENUE 31 30 AMAZED - LONESTAR 32 12 UGLY - DAPHNE AND CELESTE 33 14 GOOD STUFF - KELIS 34 27 SEX BOMB - TOM JONES/MOUSSE T. 35 23 DAY AND NIGHT - BILLIE PIPER 36 28 BAD TOUCH - BLOODHOUND GANG 37 NE SEXUAL - AMBER 38 19 UNINTENDED - MUSE 39 33 TAKEN FOR GRANTED - S.I.A. 40 NE ST ETIENNE - HEART FAILED (IN THE BACK OF A TAXI) E. TYPE, KEVIN KENNEDY, EELS, and ST ETIENNE all missed the official chart top 50, in 2000...but we had `em in! We had 9 in the 10, 15 in the 20, 25 in the 30, and just 34 in the top 40! I would have thought that the E.TYPE football championships theme, would have made it in. Quickly finish with something I nicked, from somewhere else. A feature, where we pick three hits, that might/might not be big, in future weeks, based on pre-orders. So, check these out, for future release... HOME AGAIN - EDWYN COLLINS released 23rd June GERALDINE - GLAS VEGAS released 23rd June OFFICIALLY YOURS - CRAIG DAVID released 23rd June While, they may sale a few physically, I think they will all miss the combined download/physical top 40.
June 16, 200817 yr Author Thanks, trevs! I would bloody love it if VLV was number 1 on Sunday. Will it be allowed in though???
June 16, 200817 yr I haven't heard Viva La Vida yet :lol: I think Mint Royale may stay at No.1 even if Coldplay are eligible...there are still a few versions of the track floating around on iTunes... as for the albums, I'd love it if Sara Bareilles and Darren Styles did as well as you predict them to...they are both excellent albums :D
June 16, 200817 yr Will it be allowed in though??? Yes it should be allowed read this http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=72249 The post posted in bold...
June 16, 200817 yr It says should though - and can record companies ask for songs to be made ineligible as is rumoured?
