These Days

Emeli a bigger name than Olly? :lol: she had a huge album cycle and that's it, Olly is outdoing her with his 5th album.

Since the end of the pre-order era his singles haven't peaked that high but still have sold a consistent amount (Kiss Me, You Don't Know Love).

Hoping for Olly to get the #1.

Going Plat would be enough to call it a success. IIRC Never Been Better was stuck in the 400k~ range before the re-release. Edit: Oh, actually it was about to reach double platinum, my bad.

Olly Murs and Nathan Sykes next week, predictable given their albums are out on Friday.

Party like a Russian is the lead single, out this Friday. If anything Michael Bublé's second week will block James.

Kylie and Troye sales?

B

Is Troye looking for top 40 and are the sales any better than WILD's?

I guess my spellchecker got used to Sigala ha :kink: How did Kylie climb so much to #14 / #24 :cheer: :o

1 Coldplay 6 Troye 7 Fleur 8 Sigala

The 100k copies of the re-release that were shipped to stores were all faulty so they withdrew them from stores for a bit until new copies come in.

Didn't notice that part. :kink:

Olly's popularity went up with his third era as well.

OCC has been using the inflated figures all week.

She already peaked top 20 with her album unlike Cee Lo so it's not like it matters if her single peaks low. :angel:

Any chance of Take That remaining top 10?

Take That may rise a bit in sales cause of SCD.

Even if Ellie is only #3 the opening numbers will be better than Lights and Halcyon's in a way worse sales climate.

IWFL outcharted them but had piss poor sales, Kidz did much better.
