#25 Sacred Heart - Joining Jack What's this?

It's weird because you would have thought that those people who have paid to go see an artist would have already got their album/music (whether bought or illegally downloaded) especially if they've only got a couple of albums out and they're such a big star like Lady Gaga.

Interesting report from BBC: Music retailers have urged record labels to spread the release of their big albums equally across the year. The Entertainment Retailers Association says scheduling many of them in the run-up to Christmas is damaging sales. The ERA's Kim Bayley said: "Cramming all the key releases in the fourth quarter is problematic both for consumers and retailers." Universal, the world's biggest label, say a significant portion of their sales still come in that period. The row comes after some disappointing sales weeks for albums in the UK in 2012. In August, Rihanna set a new record for the lowest selling number one album since modern records began. Her album Talk That Talk, which came out in 2011, sold 9,578 copies to return to the top spot. In May Emeli Sande sold 13,430 copies of Our Version Of Events to reach number one. These are isolated cases, but according to the BPI the average sales for a number one album in 2011 was 109,175 - its highest for six years. The Entertainment Retailers Association represents some of the country's biggest high street stores, supermarkets, online download stores and music streaming services. The body's director general Kim Bayley said: "The first half of 2012 has seen one of the weakest release schedules retailers can remember in both music and video games. "It is very difficult for retailers to sustain their year-round investment in staff and rent when sales are crammed into such a short window." The world's biggest record label Universal have defended their strategy of releasing many of their big-name albums in the final months of the year. Brian Rose is the managing director of the commercial division at Universal UK - this autumn his team have scheduled new albums from The Wanted, Mumford & Sons and Robbie Williams. He says August is always a quiet month and points towards modern global release strategies as a reason, since much of mainland Europe's music industry takes the period off as holiday. "August is not a great month to release a big new record because most people aren't buying music at that point," he said. "We don't put all our hopes into an autumn release period - we are very much a 52-weeks-of-the-year business but there's solid business reasons to release a lot of them in the autumn. "In December we'll sell 20% of all the albums we'll sell in a year, so it's still a big opportunity." In recent years HMV has struggled on the high street, as they move away from sales of physical music. Spokesperson Gennaro Castaldo says retailers are concerned about big releases all arriving at the same time - what he calls "congestion" in the schedule. "If you've got umpteen albums and DVDs all fighting for that key retail and media space then clearly then not everyone is going to achieve their sales," he said. "I think there are lots of potential sales which aren't achieved." However, both retailers and record companies agree 2012 has been an exceptional year. They say album sales have seen fluctuation because consumers have been distracted by big events such as the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, Euro 2012 and Olympic and Paralympic games.

Cheryl - Under the Sun made 59p

I think if Simon Cowell wanted to get Leona a number 1, then he should have swapped 1D's and her releases around. I can't really see Leona knocking off 1D even if 'Live While We're Young' is going to be VERY front-loaded

Two Door Cinema Club - Albums: #24 & probably top 3 (First certified Gold) Bombay Bicycle Club - Albums: #46, #8 & #6 (All certified Gold) Lead singer of Two Door Cinema Club did get top 40 with Caliban's Dream however

Some Nights would be top 10 if it wasn't for the new releases :(

As long as Ne-Yo doesn't get to #1 then i'll be happy whatever gets there

As I said earlier, it's because Pink doesn't have an EP so all the sales are going directly towards the iTunes single chart.
