Posted August 18, 200916 yr After weeks of torpor, there should be new number ones on both singles and albums charts this Sunday, courtesy of Calvin Harris and David Guetta. Michael Jackson’s The Essential album (Epic) notched up its seventh week at the top of the charts last Sunday, as the music industry slowed its release schedule over the summer. However, this is set to change this Sunday, with Calvin Harris’s new album Ready For The Weekend (Columbia) and Tinchy Stryder’s Catch 22 (4th And Broadway) fighting it out for the number one slot. Only 1,000 sales currently separate the two albums, which were both released yesterday, while Beyoncé’s I Am Sasha Fierce (Columbia) is around 4,000 copies behind. The Essential could drop out of the top five this Sunday, with albums from Black Eyed Peas, Paolo Nutini and Florence + The Machine all challenging. New albums from Vagabond, Simian Mobile Disco, The xx and Soulsavers should also challenge for top 40 placings. On the singles chart David Guetta’s Sexy Chick (Positiva / Virgin) – released early last week to combat a cover version from GG – should climb from 21 to the top slot, unseating Black Eyed Peas’ I Gotta Feeling (Interscope). GG’s cover – entitled Sexy Bitch and released by Power Music – looks set to drop out of the top 75, after charting at 60 last week. ============================================== Top 40 Only Singles http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/kk1/salmon-the-creative/5v3y35.jpg 1 David Guetta/Akon 19k 2 Black Eyed Peas 15.9k 3 Tinchy Stryder/Amelle 11.6k 4 Calvin Harris 9.6k 5 Beyonce 9.3k Top 10 6 Little Boots 8.9k 9 Esmee Denters Top 15 Just Jack Sean Kingston Top 30 Kasabian Jordin Sparks Daniel Merriweather 29 Lily Allen Top 40 Sean Paul Tinchy Stryder (#1) ==================================================== Albums http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/88697571912.JPG 1 Calvin Harris 10.9k 2 Tinchy Stryder 9.9k (976 behind) 3 Beyonce 5.9k 4 Black Eyed Peas 5k 5 Michael Jackson 4.9k Top 15 13 Pink 14 James Morrison Top 20 Killers (D&A) U2 Top 30 Vagabond Simian Mobile Disco 29 Little Boots Top 40 Elbow Akon 39 Saturdays

August 18, 200916 yr I'm guessing for today 1: David Guetta 2: BEP 3: Tinchy/ Amelle 4: CH 5: Beyonce 11: Esmee Denters ------------------------------- 1: Tinchy 2: CH 3: MJ 4: Beyonce :(
August 18, 200916 yr I have a feeling this is going to be a boring week chart-wise. Beyonce won't achieve any new peaks and Taylor Swift/Kelly Clarkson haven't made the top 40 yet. The only good thing is Esmee. She's creeping in on #4 on iTunes so i think she will be #5/#6 by the end of the week.
August 18, 200916 yr Whats with the Saturdays re-emergence? 2.99 deal? and has the Andre managed another week in the Top 10?
August 18, 200916 yr I'm really glad MJ is off the top spot on albums. It was just very annoying that Florence could have got 5 weeks at #1. :(
August 18, 200916 yr Author can you include a-has album spot when updating please?? 30+8= and has the Andre managed another week in the Top 10? yes, down 4
August 18, 200916 yr Author The following artists have dropped out of the top 40 from last week, Ian Brown, Frankmusik, 3OH!3, Michael Jackson, and most likely Agnes is #40 as we only have a top 39 in the singles chart, Sean Paul is listed twice on the MW database.
August 18, 200916 yr Author MW mid report added to the top post, over to the chart mods to answer your requests when they are available, RyRy is away at the moment, hopefully we get some sales info later.
August 18, 200916 yr No surprise to see David Guetta & Akon at the top spot, nice to see Esmee in the top 10 and Little Boots at #6.
