Heard she wolf on the radio a few times now and its dfinitly a song that grows on me a sim really getting to like it ow after initially being disappointed.

She Wolf has been added to iTunes early.

thanks for the heads up, she clawed up to number #37 already, come on shaki chase the competition down. wait they should have released this on sunday/monday to get a high new entry. i think someone fu<ked up. yes at sony uk division i bet.

Im going to wait until Sunday to buy it, I think.

yeh me too B) releasing it today will only make her a low new entry on sunday, best wait till next week to download and boost it up the chart. hopefully she goes top10

Up to #11 on UK iTunes! :o :wub:

I'm seeing it at #34 now, what's with the drop? :mellow:

 

edit; must have beenmy iTunes, it's in the top 10 now :wub:

#3 now! Not going to buy it until next week though.

 

The video is #1.

 

Hopefully Radio 1 will give this some power rotation now. It's been on A list for a while but still not dented the top 50 airplay. I have heard it a few times though.

Im hoping this can at the worst go top 10 in the uk and all going well should be a top 3 hit,

I actually sort of see what they're trying to do. I suppose at this time of year the #1 spot is competitive, and even though she stands/stood a real chance of it, it's better to go for longevity and sales, rather than holding it off for another two weeks and risk people tiring of it/losing sales.

 

If we buy it now, will it go towards next weeks chart?

Debuts at #25! :wub:

Great result considering how late it wnet up on itunes, this is definitly in with a great chance of giving shakira her 3rd uk number 1.

really good effort in 2 days, well done to shakira #25 is a great jump off point hopefully next week we see her in the top5.

 

i'm doing some quick analysis and i think shakira at best will be at #3 if all goes well, but its very likely she could be at #4 or even #5. this is why....

 

madonna is the favourite cause....her radio airplay is the highest, she has the biggest hype and multiple remixes charting plus 3 physical out too, 2 cd singles and a 12". shakira has no physical yet.

 

taio cruz may have low airplay but he is making up for it by doing around the country promo including tv so awareness of his track is going to be high. he has the physical too 1 cd single to boost him

 

shakira won't get here till the 24th to promo. physical cd single out on the 21st. so adding all this up she is in a tough position right now.

 

jay-z track is still fresh and new, the combined power of his fanbase plus rihann and kanye should not be underestimated so he could be at #3 come sunday.

 

david nutta can't be written off he has staying power, he has 2 version charting in the top40 combined he could be a problem for shakira and hold her off from #4

 

pixie lott is no threat, she did the signings, big tv promo even the text single offer. she is using mcfly like tactics with multiple purchases by her fanbase to secure this number #1 and the result will show next week when she will fall from #1 to #6 or even lower.

 

so the way i see it madonna #1, taio at #2 and shakira either at #3, #4 or #5. if she was any lower then it would be disappointing! of course i'd love to see her at #1 but the odds are really against her if it had been released on the 21st as originally planned then maybe with the physical and tv promo she would have nailed it.

some good news her radio airplay jumped up to #27 from #68. hopefully she can break the top20 by this time next week, tv airplay down though from #16 to #22.

 

also i got a quick question do video downloads of she wolf count towards the single sales? are they added on? or not?

 

 

2 day sales = 9,361 for position #25. not bad, if she can do 40k+ this week it'll be all good

Edited September 13, 200915 yr by Bullet Wolf

Thats very resectful sales for 2 days, lets hope it can go all the way next week.

#4 in the midweek chart, pretty good. I'm thinking maybe it could even rise up to #3 by the end of the week?

i think so :coffee: at best #2 but likely #3 however if david nutta combination is still edging her then #4. i think it will be close between positions 2 to 5

#2 debut in Germany

fell to #5 in the mids today, did Jay-Z overtake her on iTunes? Either way it's not by much, they're both on 18.2K
