Kid Rock set to kiss goodbye to number one

12:07 | Tuesday August 5, 2008

By Paul Williams

 

Kate Perry’s rush-released I Kissed A Girl is set to follow its chart-topping status in the US by reaching number one on this side of the Atlantic.

 

Early retail sales for this week indicate the Virgin-issued track, which is presently heading the Billboard Hot 100 chart for a sixth straight week, will end Atlantic act Kid Rock’s run at number with All Summer Long after just seven days.

 

I Kissed A Girl debuted at number four in the UK last week with its digital release having been brought forward by EMI because of huge demand for the track and the presence of several cover versions in the market.

 

Dizzee Rascal’s Dance Wiv Me on his own Dirtee Skank label is likely to retain its top-three status for another week, while Vertigo/Mercury’s Noah & The Whale are expected to make further progress having previously climbed 14-10 with 5 Years Time.

 

Def Jam/Mercury’s Rihanna is likely to claim two simultaneous hits in the Top 20 with Take A Bow set to be joined by Disturbia, which is on course for a double-digit climb from its present chart position of 34.

 

Roadrunner/Warner’s long-running Nickelback hit Rockstar will spend its 43rd week on the chart by climbing back into the Top 40, while other arrivals to the 40 will include All Around The World act Cascada and Island’s Nelly.

 

On albums Abba’s Gold, which last week became the oldest album to reach number one in chart history, is poised to extend its run at the top for a further week for Polydor with Parlophone’s Coldplay again the closest challengers.

 

In a quiet week for new releases, Atlantic artist Natty is in position to claim the chart’s highest new entry with Man Like I, while other new entries will include new sets from Nonesuch/Warner’s Randy Newman and Wichita act Conor Oberst.

Katyb Perry will easily be number one. I think the Verve will be about 12 on todays update but will be about 4 come sunday.

 

Hope Sharleen holds on to a top ten placing in the albums and the saturdays top ten in the singles

Really don't understand the Katy Perry hype...sheesh. Hate The Verve too...I'm off to hide under a rock.

The Katy Perry phenomenom is contrived music industry fodder - which of course appeals to 'stupid' masses.

 

I know lets get a gospel singer, change her image so that she looks a bit 'edgy', and to top it off lets get her music to hint at lesbianism so that the young kids will think her 'cool' and original.

 

It's all so obvious............. and obviously $h!t too ;-)

 

That Katy Perry song has some of the most excruciating lyrics I've heard in a long time. "Us girls we are so magical, Soft skin, red lips, so kissable". Indeed. The only reason it'll reach the top is because it's the first controversial pseudo-lesbian anthem since All The Things She Said back in 2003.

 

That Kid Rock songs annoys me too, the guy can't sing.. and talk about ripping off a classic song with it's sampling! It's wouldn't be a tenth as popular without it's liberal borrowing from Sweet Home Alabama.

 

I'm rooting for Love Is Noise.. it's not up there with Verve's best, but it's miles ahead of it's other competitors. Unfortunately, it doesn't stand a chance this week, because the physical is out August 12th.

 

Oh well, looks like seven days of smoking funny things or tasting cherry chapstick. Me? I'm off to crawl under a particularly large rock unless it's all over, if you don't mind. Budge up, richie!!

Well the DFS ad has been around for about a month i think. Even Nickelback/Record didn't want Rockstar to hang around so they deleted it so Photograph had a chance, and now its been re-added to itunes. :mellow:

Strange indeed, why would people want to go and download it again -_-

 

I thought it was deleted and has just been added again, thats all :huh:
hmmm, was here some sort of Bank Holiday yesterday that I knew nothing about? (Possible these days as I'm an unemployed student :lol: )

Edited by T Boy

Rockstar has risen because the single was £1.49 on iTunes for a long time. They've finally changed it to the normal price of 79p so loads of people are starting to purchase it now (plus the DFS advert has helped too) :(
