Stans are names after the Eminem song of the same name, i.e. obsessed fans

Lily Allen and Dido added. (quite sad to see Lily perched UNDERNEATH Cher Lloyd)

Yeah I thought that, I realise its from November to November but Rolling In The Deep sold over 5 million copies in the US and almost a million in the UK, I can't see how it only sold 2 million copies the rest of the world when I thought it was the best selling single worldwide last year...strange. And where's Some Like You? Surely its sold over 6.5million?

Yeah thats why I didn't add them originally until it was requested but sometimes Irish gets counted in with British so I suppose its acceptable...kind of lol

If you go onto VEVO and type in an artists name, when you click on the artist it gives you their full number of views for all their videos, but as someone else pointed out its obviously only their official VEVO accounts. But then its the same for most artists, they usually have their record companys account too. Kylie is a prime example as her Parlophone views are probably just as high or higher than her VEVO views. Ill add Westlife too.

I thought this deserved its own thread. I made a list of some of the most popular UK artists at the moment and ranked their VEVO views, feel free to add anything. EDIT: Less than 6 months later here are the updates views... 23/01/12 03/07/12 Adele - 444 million 700 million (+256 million) Jessie J - 378 million 528 million (+150 million) Taio Cruz - 353 million 424 million (+71 million) Leona Lewis - 264 million 282 million (+18 million) Jay Sean - 210 million 229 million (+19 million) Coldplay - 178 million 272 million (+94 million) Amy Winehouse - 118 million 140 million (+22 million) Snow Patrol - 101 million 124 million (+23 million) Florence + The Machine - 91 million 140 million (+49 million) One Direction - 85 million 427million (+342 million) :o Cheryl Cole - 72 million 95 million (+23 million) Cher Lloyd - 59 million 102 million (+43 million) Westlife - 50.5 million 66 million (+15.5 million) Dido - 50.5 million 60.5 million (+10 million) Take That - 46 million 54 million (+8 million) The Saturdays - 41 million 51 million (+10 million) Ellie Goulding - 38 million 53 million (+ 15 million) Pixie Lott - 35 million 46.5 million (+11.5 million) Sugababes - 21 million 24 million (+3 million) Girls Aloud - 14 million 19 million (+5 million) Mumford and Sons - 9 million 13 million (+4 million) Alexandra Burke - 7 million 15 million (+8 million)

Just had a look at some of the most popular UK artists at the moment and here are the findings Adele - 444 million Jessie J - 378 million Taio Cruz - 353 million Leona Lewis - 264 million Jay Sean - 210 million Tinie Tempah - 179 million Coldplay - 178 million Amy Winehouse - 118 million Snow Patrol - 101 million Florence + The Machine - 91 million One Direction - 85 million Cheryl Cole - 72 million Cher Lloyd - 59 million Take That - 46 million The Saturdays - 41 million Ellie Goulding - 38 million Pixie Lott - 35 million The Wanted - 31 million JLS - 29 million Olly Murs - 27 million Sugababes - 21 million Girls Aloud - 14 million Mumford and Sons - 9 million Alexandra Burke - 7 million

I'd imagine Jessie J would be up there as I know 'Price Tag' is on something like 183million views, also Adele obviously...although with her only making select videos im not sure.

It's not really TOTP its just this Radio one charts thing, its in this article here. http://www.musicweek.com/story.asp?section...1048210&c=1

Its not really about chart positions though is it? yeah SFTTR did miss the top ten but it was between number 11 and 15 for about 5 weeks (a long time for the UK) and has sold about half a million copies in the UK now, which is more than alot of number 1's here! It was just bad timing for the song in the UK thats all, plus the fact that something like 1 in every 2 households now already owns the song on '21',

Jessie J is FINALLY top 20!!! Ive been keeping an eye on it for about 4 months now! So pleased for her, I really hope this goes top 10 on the BB Hot 100, maybe even number 1? After Adele of course ;) Adele is miles behind number 4 though on audience impressions, although at the spped shes gaining it should be too long till she catches up...and overtakes :)

This makes me sooooo happy! :dance:

I agree that theres too much auto tune, even if it was the chorus only, it would work better. I think theres no doubt this will be number 1, its a great song. I do think not releasing it till March is a bit late though, February would have been better.

Well if nothing changes in the next few days it looks like this will be number 1 this week! Im so chuffed, hopefully it'll boost the sales of Who You Are as I think its a great album.

Looks like SFTTR will be top ten soon, have there been many cases of an artist having 2 songs on the top ten airplay chart? Id imagine its pretty rare compared to having 2 songs in the hot 100. There is a chance with these updates it may make the airplay top 10 before SLY leaves...

"OH MY GOD @ the Adele update! Isn't it amazing how, with no video or performance, this song is doing much better than it did in the UK!" There was always gonna be a bigger scope for it to be bigger in the US than the UK as even though the album has sold over 5 million in the US thats only 0.8% of ther population compared with the 4 million sales in the UK which is an impressive 6.45% of the population that already own it. The fact that SFTTR sold over 400k copies in the UK and didnt make the top ten is amazing!

Jessie J up to number 17 now! :yahoo: I would love to see this go top ten on the Billboard hot 100.

I am a massive fan of Breakaway I really do think its one of my all time top 15/20 albums, but to a certain extent I agree with this statement. The majority of the album tracks are all good but nothing amazing but its the utter utter amazingness of all the singles that really makes it so good.

Jessie J has dropped the last 2 days :( I really hope it's just a blip.

Just noticed there's over 100,000 of a sales difference between number 11 and number 10!

E.T. has 3 more weeks inside the top 100 now, it's new chart run is... 89-29-12-5-3-7-6-7-12-19-23-32-40-42-48-58-72-83-90-100-40-72-96

Why are the Black Eyed Peas listed twice?

Ive voted top 5, this song just feels so old now though, I mean I think ive had it for at least 4 months now. It is definately her best song since Price Tag and in my opinion is just as good as Price tag. It obviously wont be as big as Price tag but Id love to see it make number 1. I do love a bit of Jessie J.

Body language is a great little album (Chocolate is my favourite Kylie single), it's one of those albums I dont listen to loads (compared to X, Aphrodite and Light Years) but its got some great little album tracks (Promises, Secrets, Still Standing, Obsession <3 ) Have fun listening to them...Oh and Boombox the song is amazeballs!
