1. Justin 2. Shakira (12th and last week at the Top 3) IMO 3. Fratellis 4. Beyonce (Bye, bye) 5. Scissor Sisters (Downloads Only) :dance: Justin, Jamelia, Robbie, Lemar and Nelly all fighting for a spot in the Top 5.... Do you reckon Shakira will be Top 5 next week???

We already know the Top 2... don't we??? From the Midweek it's quite obvious

It's from the week Beyonce's single was released ;)

#1 again???? That song is getting boring...

Yeap... HDL was #1 in the UK and Australia at the same time... but it was #1 in the US in June or July

Well He's gonna sell 44K+ this weeks which is not that bad for a #1 single nowadays Lily and McFly didn't reach that figure... And Shakira... well her run has been 35K - 29K (12 weeks)

:o Sales will be "high" again this week for the #1 Single and #1 Album 40K+ for #1 Single and 120K+ for #1 Album But It looks like only the Top 2 will sell over 23K+ :( Top 10 sales will be high again next week with Justin+Nelly Furtado+Scissor Sisters+Robbie Williams+Shakira (This song's run it's amazing)

Sales are being held for some artist... When the song is big like HDL or SexyBack they have soldl 250K+ the first week... (When It's not so big like Deja Vu or London Bridge they sell around 100K-120K) Sales have been increasing at a great rate... so you could expect songs to surpass the 300K by next year (obviously they have to be as popular as HDL or SB and be held for at least 1 - 2 months)

Shakira's song will be Top 3 this week (probably #2) and Top 5 next week (#1 SS, #2 Justin and #3-4 (Nelly/Shakira) and maybe Robbie Williams...) That song will end up selling 420K - 450K... Her next single (Illegal) will be released on October so there's still 4 - 5 weeks for this song on the charts... (It has been 13 weeks in the top 10 in iTunes and it's still #6 when all the other songs have come and gone) and 12 weeks in the Top 3 (UK Singles Chart). Justin sold 250K in the US (First Week)... This is an early estimate so there's the possibility that SexyBack might have broken Shakira's record (266K) By this time next year you can expect songs that are as popular as Hips or SexyBack to sell over 350K in a week... Please don't let Rudebox to get Top 5... That song is really bad :unsure: ----------- How many downloads do you think SS have lost (pre-released)??? My guess: 70K - 100K

Shakira will hold the #2 spot this week... Scissors will be #3 And Beyonce is not a threat...

:lol:

F#$&%... #3,#4 and #5 are really close... :blink: Scissor Sisters would have been #1 with Downloads... had they been released this week and not 4 weeks ago

Who knows... sometimes labels claim to sell more than they actually do... for example Sony released a statement saying that shakira's project (FO Vol. 1 and OF Vol.2) has sold almost 14 millions in just a year IMO... that's bulls#$%... so you never know real figures...

Let Go sold 13mm to 14mm

UMS ---> 6.5mm to 8mm

If you take a look to the MidWeeks you could see that Shakira was gonna sell over 25K and bellow 27K... acutally this week the Midweeks were really accurate

That song rocks!!! :dance:

LOL

Why do they keep playing Shakira song??? Just to say that she did not make 5 consecutive weeks???

Don't Bother Hey You Illegal Costume Makes The Clown --->>> :P Be a Single Please Obtener Un Si La Tortura F :mario: ck, Oral Fixation is a really good album... it's a shamed she needed HDL to boost its sales... That song is :puke: next to this I know this has been posted before... I just wanna bring it back to life

Wow... Big Brother did help Snow Patrol a lot...

Well the choreographer said it was a special version of HDL... so who knows

Indian... not arabic... :) It's supposed to be "Hips Don't Lie" a la Bollywood
