Given that the song has already been out for a while & sold a large amount of copies with big media coverage, radio play etc should Adele have sung the 2nd single from the album instead?

How much of a lead do people think Louisa will get of Bieber? she is talented but the song is very bland

the album is no.1 on all the pre order charts both physical & digital and has been for a few days I am expecting 400-500,000 perhaps more if she has an xfactor performance & promotes a 2nd single before

One of my favourite X Factor contestants- Hole in My Heart is the 1st single. What does everything think. I think it's really good potential number 1 7hiGI7-Vzmo

Ben Haenow has held up much better than expected looking at a 3rd week inside the top 5

Will Ben get a 2nd week. Currently on itunes Mark Ronson has 100% & Ben 60% and both are pretty stable now. Will the physical be enough to keep him at number 1 with all the shoppers and stocking fillers. The physical is number 12 on amazon and is also for sale online at Tesco and in the various supermarkets in store. Plus Ben will have media coverage from being the xmas number 1 and the TOTP performance on Christmas Day

I don't think you can compare Sam Bailey to the competition this week, Sam Bailey sold 150,000 in total which will be close to what Uptown funk will sell so Ben will never get uptown funk down to 30% like Sam did as he would have to sell about 700k to do that but with physical sales could be looking at about 200-250k which is quite good considering the viewing figures for this series have been very low and the winners song is average at best

By my calculation when combined Olly Murs is no.1 Band Aid-100% Take That-96.58% Taylor (3 & 97)-90.27% Olly (5,38,39)-78.20 + 12.11 + 11.71= 102.02%

Take That doing far better than I expected could even overtake Band Aid after X Factor, Olly also holding up very well and still being successful after 4 albums is great for an x factor star and McBusted top 10!

when was the last time an artist had 2 versions of the same song in the top 10?

Cheryl has a big lead already even before xfactor tonight could have a massive lead after the show tonight

Tracy Chapman doing very well love fast car. Does anyone know what is happening with the UKIP song read early this morning on BBC it was being removed but it has just now risen back into the top 20?

The UKIP song is number 1 on Amazon :o and number 15 on itunes

I'm not a voter but how can it not be chart related the song is in the itunes top 25 and rising and political songs have been discussed before e.g. the anti Thatcher song when she died

UKIP song now up to number 23! can't believe it is so high but it is quite funny

UKIP Calypso enters at number 51 on first update!!! if you take away x factor & double entries almost top 40

so what does everyone think? I am not talking about artistic merit but as a political song?- are we past the stage where music can impact politics

Full song here- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xLbcIianBg Amazon-http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ukip-Calypso/dp/B00OG4HPDQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1413796899&sr=8-1 what does everyone think of this!?

I wonder how much the Itunes chart will reflect the x factor results? Lauren Platt doing great again her song from the 1st week is still in the top30! and Andrea for both weeks not doing as well on itunes as everyone thought.

With several songs now being released and more on youtube and being leaked. How do people think it will do? First week sales? What should be the 3rd single? think Empire has to be

What does everyone think of Ella Henderson's second single Glow and how will it do? will it get to number 1 or could it struggle as the album is only out a week later

So Leah McFall released her single this week and it looks like missing the top 40 and is almost out of the itunes top 100 already. Despite the hype that she could be a big hit & Will.i.am helping her career she has flopped. Of the three winners none has had a top 20 hit whilst on the xfactor despite being in its 10th year (and falling ratings) Sam Bailey got a number 1 single & album and other acts who didn't even win have also done very well e.g. Ella hendersen came 6th, one direction 3rd, rebecca ferguson 2nd and Union J came 4th and have had 2 top ten songs & a top 10 album What can the voice do to create a big artist

Will the different versions of 3 lions chart as one song? I know the remixes of e.g. the 98 version was count as one but will the 94/98 and other version be counted separately as they are different songs

Ella Henderson is doing extremely well

I notice Ella Henderson has been top 100-200 for the past 4-5 weeks and this week has been in the top 50 all week so wondering where everyone think she will enter itunes on Sunday on pre-orders?
