Posted August 18, 200817 yr Monkey following Gorillaz into Top 10 12:44 | Tuesday August 19, 2008 Source: MW By Paul Williams Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett’s latest musical project looks on course to make a strong early dent on the UK artists albums chart with Monkey’s Journey To The West set for a top-five debut this Sunday. According to early sales figures, the XL-issued album reuniting the Gorillaz collabrators is likely to be the highest new entry on the chart where Phonegenic act The Script are a strong bet to spend a second week at one with their self-titled debut. Roadrunner act Black Stone Cheery are also poised to claim a high new entry on the chart with Folklore And Superstition, while Island is set to capitalise on Lynyrd Skynyrd’s Sweet Home Alabama being utilised by Kid Rock for his chart-topping single All Summer Long by landing a Top 40 entry with a Greatest Hits set from the legendary band. A number of acts who performed at last weekend’s V Festival are set to rise up the albums chart this coming Sunday, among them Island’s Amy Winehouse, Charisma/Virgin’s Alphabeat and Hand Me Down/Columbia’s Kings Of Leon, while The Verve’s 1997 chart-topping Hut/Virgin album Urban Hymns is expected to return to the Top 40 having climbed last week 61-41. The band were headliners at the festival in Chelmsford and Leeds. The singles chart is showing little movement at this early stage in the week with Virgin’s Katy Perry hit I Kissed A Girl still the biggest seller and Phonogenic’s The Script and Atlantic’s Kid Rock its main rivals again. Def Jam/Mercury’s Rihanna is likely to score another top five hit with her single Disturbia climbing from its current chart position of six. In a quiet week so far for new entries expect arrivals to the new Top 40 this Sunday to include new hits from Biffy Clyro and Gabriella Cilmi. ===================================== Singles 01 Katy Perry 12.3k 02 The Script 7.6k 03 Kid Rock 6.9k 04 Rihanna 5.6k 05 Madcon 5k Top 10 Noah & The Whale Coldplay Top 15 Ida Maria Gabriella Cilmi - SAM Top 20 Keane Biffy Clyro Taio Cruz Top 30 Little Jackie The Script - We Cry Top 40 Sara Bareilles The Automatic* (when combined) Flo Rida 37 Gabriella Cilmi - STL Estelle - AB Top 50 Take That - RTW Top 60 Alphabeat Lynyrd Skynrd Flo Rida / Will.i.am Colbie Caillat Top 70 Ray J J Majik & Wickaman Duffy - Stepping Stone Miley Cyrus Top 75 Nas / Keri Hilson Fratellis Top 90 Plies Top 110 LL Cool J ================== Albums 01 The Script 10.8k 02 ABBA 6.5k 03 Duffy 5.2k 04 Coldplay 4.3k 05 Monkey 4.1k Top 10 8 Rihanna Black Stone Cherry Scouting For Girls Top 15 Gabriella Cilmi 15 Jordin Sparks Top 30 Lynryd Skynryd Kings Of Leon Amy Winehouse - Frank Verve - Urban Hymns Top 40 Alphabeat Snow Patrol - Eyes Open ABBA - 18 Hits Top 50 Fratellis Pigeon Detectives Amy MacDonald Take That Whitney Houston Oasis Leona Lewis Top 60 Stereolab Kaiser Chiefs MIKA Eva Cassidy Top 110 Katy Perry - One Of The Boys (IMPORT) Solange Top 150 Backyard Babies Madcon Colbie Caillat Dandy Warhols Top 160 Academy Is Sales and additonal Info from Reiss @ CHC This is the only Info there is, please don't ask for anything that isn't there, you only just get a dumb answer =========================================== PLEASE NOTE Please keep this thread on topic at all times, I do not want to repeat myself every week, no text talk is allowed, do not write in block CAPS, and keep all requests in one post if you can, and try to read the thread topic before asking a question and please be patient while you are waiting for your question to be answered.

August 19, 200817 yr I think Miley will miss out on Top 40 this week, but next week when the physical is out - it will hopefully reach the Top 40. Also, I think Solange might climb, and her album will debut in the Top 20.
August 19, 200817 yr Author I hope Save The Lies does ok. To be honest I can't see it doing that well, considering Sweet About Me is still top 40
August 19, 200817 yr To be honest I can't see it doing that well, considering Sweet About Me is still top 40 unfortunetly i think the same she'll do what Sam Sparro did with his 2nd single because of the fact that the old one is still higher in the top 40 :(
August 19, 200817 yr i do want the fratellis,Cilmi & Automatic to do well but they'll all flop sadly but Colbie,Alphabeat & Possibly Duffy could get top 40 :w00t:
August 19, 200817 yr Gabriella's top 40 :cheer: But oh dear to the automatic :( they flop with a fantastic comeback single :(
August 19, 200817 yr But oh dear to the automatic :( they flop with a fantastic comeback single :( Totally agree with you :(
August 19, 200817 yr Totally agree with you :( a few reasons why they haven't got top 40 though. They only just got added to Itunes and the video airplay has died as i have not seen the video for almost 2 weeks now :cry:
August 19, 200817 yr I reckon Save The Lies will fall out of the top 40 by Sunday i hope not she's climbing on itunes so don't count her out
