As I got a full inbox of "Dave, where`s the weekly preview, that you and Trevs do lately?" I found a quick minute to have a word with John and Peter at HMV, and we have come up with this info..after trekking around the host of shops, and downloads available.

 

Here is the Singles info:

01 NE SO WHAT - PINK

02 01 SEX ON FIRE - KINGS OF LEON

36 31 PADDY`S REVENGE - STEVE MAC

37 RE SWEET ABOUT ME - GABRIELLA CILMI

38 34 5 YEARS TIME - NOAH AND THE WHALE

39 37 SHE`S LIKE A STAR - TAIO CRUZ

40 NE WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD - AXWELL/BOB SINCLAR

 

Who said the chart might be exciting, next week?! That one look`s rather static, apart from the top 10. Outside the 40 it`s all re-entries Take That, Snow Patrol, Michael Buble, all go back into the top 50. Streets go back into the top 60, MGMT - Kids goes into the 50, as does Hot N`Cold - Katy Perry. I feel for Niki Evans - Love Me No More, and Chase And Status - Pieces..both look like flopping, a shame but the physical sales tell a different story. Boyzone take top physical today, just in front of Oasis, and Pink..another different story.

 

Who wants the album preview?

Here it is:

01 NE LET IT GO - WILL YOUNG

02 01 ONLY BY THE NIGHT - KINGS OF LEON

Outside this top 30 album preview: 32 Seasick Steve, Val Doonican 34, Jennifer Hudson 35, Mercury Rev 36. Jonas Brothers go back up...Compilations Girls Night In, and Global Underground are also in the top 40. The top 50 brings re-worked New Order collections (over 4 positions). Fotheringay, and Trivium slide in. Godskitchen 09, is also in. Also, don`t forget John Foxx, he is in to the top 50, as well.

 

I don`t think I made any major mistakes there! But if I have, I`m sure I will soon know! :thumbup:

 

Does anyone actually want a vintage chart to end with, via Radio Luxembourg? If you do..open for requests, and other info...Thank You! :teresa:

 

Quickly had a request for the Luxembourg "Next Week`s Top 30", for Sept 1986.

This was it, and Radio Luxembourg did quite well that week!

02 01 DON`T LEAVE ME THIS WAY - COMMUNARDS

27 16 HUMAN - HUMAN LEAGUE

28 NE MONTEGO BAY - AMAZULU

29 NE ALWAYS THERE - MART WEBB/SIMON MAY

30 NE WHO WANT`S TOO LIVE FOREVER - QUEEN

 

No surprising Radio Luxembourg were doing good in 1986, because they actually took early sales info from MRIB, with added airplay. So, this was as accurate as Luxembourg ever could be..but it didn`t last that long! In 1986, they had 18 in the 20, 26 in the top 30, and 8 in the top 10. Although, Cameo only managed to outsell Communards for one day! And what a shame the Timex Social Club, could not get the Gallup top 10 with "Rumours". We certainly won`t forget MC Miker G And DJ Sven, having a "Ring Ringa Ding For A Holiday!" There are a lot of lost classics here, though..Meat Loaf, Queen, The The, Dead Or Alive, OMD, Big Country all having hits, that just never turn up, anymore. I must contact Shaun Tilly at KCFM too play some of these, on his Sunday afternoon show "I Haven`t Heard It For Ages".

Yep, as is the singles..in order to cover the full week`s prediction. In looking at the Physical sales alone..it depicts that the older generation, prefer physical copies, and the under 30s go for downloads, without worrying about the physical. Obviously, the older lot are getting more excercise from going to the local HMV store! ;)

Thanks Dave. Really hope this is how the album chart looks at the end of the week. :w00t:

I'll be shocked if Will Young knocks Kings Of Leon from No.1 on the album chart!

I actually agree with you. The boys at HMV were looking into the Supermarkets here i.e. Tesco, Sainsburys, and Asda. They say that the push will once again come from "the slightly older person".

 

Personally I can`t see Will pushing passed the Kings Of Leon. Not after the remarkable feat accomplished last week! The gang at HMV also say Will only entered their chart today at 9. With the physical single sinking from 1 to 4.

Thanks Dave :yahoo:

 

I guess it must be tight between the top 3? Is it? But for now :cheer:

 

Here's hoping for Will! I said last week he's become an album artist now :D

 

 

03 NE LOVE YOU ANYWAY - BOYZONE

06 NE SHOCK OF THE LIGHTNING - OASIS

 

Interesting information to swipe for my chart predictions tommorow :heehee: :P

You forgot Modern Talking :o Seriously though I was quite a fan (still am!) :dance:

 

Thanks for doing this Dave, really interesting stuff.

Edited by TomKay

though on amazon.co.uk and hmv.co.uk Oasis are #1 on Cd single sales ? so it will be close
I have a feeling James Morrison will be igher than Will Young in the albums chart :o
