iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 6th April 2018
I noticed that as well (on iTunes) although curiously you can still download it from Amazon. Incidentally it is the second time Ed Sheeran has been involved with a cover of "Candle In The Wind" (there is a version on the 2014 reissue of Elton's "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" Album, I suppose that is why they have made it clear the latest version is the 2018 Version).

01. Ruti - Dreams Fantastic for the youngest winner of The Voice and a fitting tribute to Dolores.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 6th April 2018
Well done to Ruti, she richly deserved to win this series of The Voice. For me 'Dreams' was the stand-out vocal performance of the whole Series. Sure it will decline at a fast rate at some point today but I will definitely download at some point as I think she has a very unique voice (which Tom Jones was the only one to turn for in the blind audition). We know from previous Series that winning is unlikely to translate to much success in the Singles chart but people are a little too keen to write off Ruti's longer term chances, I personally think she has a chance to sell Albums in greater numbers than previous winners.

Kylie on The Graham Norton Show tonight should help maintain momentum for 'Golden' , wouldn't be surprised to see her on The Voice final tomorrow as well.

Up to 4 all ready, should be ok for Top 3 overall this week, wonder whether will compete for #1.

Worst album chart drops from the top 10
Dropped to 79 from a debut position of 10.

What will the next #1 single be?
Given how well their five year old songs are still doing on streaming I think their fans are eagerly awaiting new material which Alex Turner has said is coming 'soon'.
-
What will the next #1 single be?
Arctic Monkeys.

How long will The Greatest Showman soundtrack stay at #1?
I actually think it will - it's out 2 weeks after Ezra and I can't see much else competition other than the steady sales of TGS and E.S.

How long will The Greatest Showman soundtrack stay at #1?
Eleven weeks in this run to be replaced by George Ezra but likely to return in April/May as the release schedule of Albums is as light as I can remember. Wouldn't be surprised to see it get 15+ weeks overall.

YTD T40 Albums (with estimated sales) + Singles (pos only)
I am guessing The Greatest Showman has all ready overtaken the Sales of La La Land which would be quite an achievement all ready - seems the writers of both (Pasek and Paul) have another musical lined up next year as well (Aladdin). In terms of bigger sellers over the year I am hoping the Arctic Monkeys can come back with a classic!

The Greatest Showman back to #1 does not look good for JT's chances.

4 Simple Minds - Walk Between Worlds Holding up very well so far, should be on course for a Top 10 placing overall may be even Top 5, not bad for an Eighteenth Studio Album. Reviews will certainly have helped interest with some of their older fans.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 26th January 2018
I agree, I think the quality of the song has been a bit underestimated by some (may be because it is not a style of music that is current) and also I give credit to those behind her, she performed on The One Show this week which kept the momentum going, I wouldn't be surprised if they have more Promo lined up next week. Also I have heard it played on Capital which can only bode well for long term success as they have a tendency to play songs for months.

Bargain Bin - Black Friday
Curious there is also an Elvis 'Close Up' box set available from the same date (6th April) also costing £3.80, may be a new Budget Collection of Re-Releases.

Bargain Bin - Black Friday
A bit of an oddity in the Amazon pre-order chart, current #1 is 'Born To Run' 30th Anniversary Edition by Bruce Springsteen for £3.80, it is odd because there has all ready been a 30th Anniversary release for this Album so this is a re-re-release, clearly a mis-price.

#15 for the Deluxe Edition and #33 for the Regular Edition of 'The Architect' is a decent boost, would it expect it make it Top 10 overall this week.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 26th January 2018
Sigrid performed an Acoustic version of Strangers on The One Show tonight, hope it continues the momentum upwards and it makes the Top 10 this week.

Not sure he is going to get there now, The Greatest Showman about to get the weekend cinema boost. Surprised to see Paloma as low down as #72 and #102 given her Album is still Top 15 overall. Should rise high after Graham Norton appearance tonight though.

Favourite God hit
Kate Bush - one of the best comeback Singles of all time and I'm not talking about the 2012 version referenced in the vote but the 1985 release.

2. Drake 3. Ramz Quite a big boost for Drake from somewhere, not far away from topping downloads and streaming.

The Greatest Showman back to #1 after a brief spell where MTV Rocks was at the top, should stay there for rest of week.

Def Leppard - High 'N' Dry 62. Def Leppard - Adrenalize 90. Def Leppard - On Through The Night 102. Def Leppard - Adrenalize (Deluxe) 113. Def Leppard - Pyromania (Deluxe) 172.

Def Leppard - Slang (Deluxe) 515. Def Leppard - Mirror Ball: Live & More 570. Def Leppard - Hysteria (Deluxe) Hysteria should make Top 100 overall this week, wonder whether any others.
