1D = #26 now. Wow!! This has all the makings of a phenomenon... I can only imagine when airplay actually kicks in! Getting to #26 with all the Houston and Adele songs above them means an easy top 20 without. Yeah, again, not a 1D fan but I'm happy for them. Will be amazing if Ed Sheeran, Emilie Sande and Reb Fergusson can be the other UK crossover acts making it Statesside this year.

Wow, so 1D are higher than The Wanted (29 and 30 resp.) without any airplay!!

One Direction #32 now. WHAAT!

Not bad at One Direction. #67 now without any airplay. When does that iCarly episode air?

"Stronger"'s fallen quite a bit in the popularity bars, no?

Depends on how much airplay RITD has.... but a top 10 placing looks very likely. Adele could have 3 songs in the top 10..... when was the last time a female singer had 3 songs? Was it Whitney and the Bodyguard era?

I have no doubt that she'll beat Van Halen even if she doesn't sell 300K+. Clips of her Anderson interview were put online as early as Friday which resulted in the "RITD" jump, then came the SLY audition on The Voice, and of course Sunday's Grammys. I wonder if her label will ever televise that Royal Albert Hall DVD.... that'll be another big week for her then!

LOL! True! Will be nice if both "19" and "Chasing pavements" can beat their original peaks too.

Assuming they sell well, and I'm sure "I will always..." will be played by a few radio station,s, are the singles eligible to chart in the Hot 100? It will be interesting to see how much the GH album sells, and if it can re-enter the BB 200, and perhaps outpeak its original #5 showing.

She'll easily hit the 150m mark, esp. with a Grammys performance.

Good increases for Adele... although shame it didn't increase when SFTTR was #1 on iTunes! Hopefully for the next single, airplay and sales increase at the same time.

Well you're right, I had a drama queen moment in my last post!

I hope not. She shouldn't be a victim of overkill and radio stops playing singles #4 and #5, or worse still, totally disown her for the next album. Hopefully she'll perform SFTTR or better still, another song.

So basically the Adele show! Glad Ed Sheeran got his first US iTunes placing but what a random song! What's behind it (I haven't read previous posts yet)

SLY was supposedly performed on The Voice, by a contestant who was a backup singer during Adele's US tour.

RITD was performed acapella on Anderson Cooper but won't be shown to the public till 1 hr before the Grammys. Perhaps just based on word-of-mouth, as that's being touted as her 1st "comeback" post surgery.

The Wanted slowing down? :( Yay for Adele but might not be enough to keep Kelly off #1 on the BB100, right?

Wonder how far The Wanted will go.

I'm glad The Wanted are doing well, but looks to me like Jessie J is running out of steam? Or is 0.831 a good enough amt? I am surprised that Madge is gaining 2mil+ spins a day.... I would've thought the song would've thawed out by now. Given that it's rising on iTunes and airplay, does this mean another BB100 Top 10 hit for her?

Hopefully will get a higher peak after the Grammys.

Agree with what a lot of people are saying - I saw her live once and she was a mess. But no denying the both BProof and Kill are amazing songs.

yeah, I noticed the same thing!

I think they add digital sales or something towards the end? I presume she'll show up in the top 5 if not top 2. I'm curious where Gotye's and Rumer's albums are. Rumer's in particular did well on iTunes the last few days.

So Madge up to 40 mil.... let's see how long it lasts before it runs out of steam!

Thanks for the Gotye numbers!
