Nelly battles to retain lead on singles chart

Source : Music Week

 

 

Nelly Furtado has another battle on her hands for the number one slot this week, after the physical release of Muse’s Supermassive Black Hole (Helium 3/Warner) made a strong start at retail yesterday.

 

Reports suggest less than 200 sales separate the two today, although Furtado has recently proved to sell consistently throughout the week and is likely to retain the top spot on Sunday.

 

Other notable movements within the Top Ten come from Lostprophets (Visible Noise), The Zutons (Deltasonic) and Sergio Mendes feat. The Black Eyed Peas (Concord/UCJ), who all rise significantly since debuting on download sales last week.

 

Michael Jackson’s Stranger In Moscow (Epic) is the probable highest new entry, with Editors (Kitchenware), Ricky (Beat Crazy) and The Kooks (Virgin) all also likely to debut within the Top 20.

 

England’s unconvincing start to the World Cup seems to have affected the nation’s love of football anthems, with singles from Embrace, Baddiel/Skinner/The Lightning Seeds, Tony Christie, Sham 69 & The Special Assembly, Stan Boardman and Crazy Frog all witnessing significant slumps in sales since the weekend.

 

In the albums market, Keane are likely to hold firm atop the chart, with new entries from Fatboy Slim (Skint) and The Automatic (B-Unique/Polydor) both vying for a top three debut. Madonna’s DVD/CD set I’m Going To Tell You A Secret (Warner Bros) is set to enter just outside the Top 10 alongside Dannii Minogue’s AATW/UMTV-released Greatest Hits set, while other new entries to the Top 40 are likely to come from Triniti (UCJ), Hope Of The States (Columbia) and The Divine Comedy (Parlophone).

Sorry no sales with this lot :cry:

 

Anyone please

Ricky has fell fast :o

Shakira omg! Here's hoping she can keep #2 - Nelly for #1 of course :P

wow wee i'm impressed :thumbup: about shakira's climb but it does make sense cause radio ignored her before the release and now they are coming on board finally!! so this promo is reaching new audience plus sony UK spending a lil money on her with tv ads this song has strong legs like her mother, cmon shakira shakira :cheer:

 

i like muse too so i hope they get top 3!!

Edited by perfecto

Great news for Shakira :cheer:

 

Sure wish Dannii's album would climb.

Dannii's never the sort of artist that climbs during the week, 'Neon Nights' started off at #5 in the first set of midweeks and was down to #8 for Sunday!

 

Yeah i know, still would be nice.

Yes Yes Yes-come on Shakira-I hoped this would happen having seen the close sales between Muse, Sandi and Shakira!!!
Muse should be Top 3 and Sandi should drop! Yay for Shakira, congrats to her... I hope for a No.1 when she performs at the World Cup.
