Still #2, but it must be coming soon. TU's massive CR effect is about to be lost in their pop bar; if the theory holds, that should reduce their bar by approximately 50% :rofl:

The % change is insignificant at 0.61%; therefore she is not pulling away, particularly as a substantial time period has elapsed since the last update.

More like Nicole and Adele level, I'd hardly say that increasing by 0.61% amounts to pulling away.

GF should see a massive drop around 8pm tonight, that is going to be hilarious, it should drop from #1 to #3 in a matter of minutes. :lol:

Who does the extended remix?

Wow, the non-rap version of OTF is brilliant!!! :o :o :o Absolutely LOVE the bit between 3:00 and 3:15 that isn't in the Pitbull version :wub: :wub: :heart: Muchos grazias Regina

You need to download Real Player, open Internet Explorer (not Firefox or Opera as it doesn't work on them), and then visit YouTube and dial up J Lo No Rap On The Floor. You'll be amazed at all the button gadgetry you'll have there :P ;) #3 I think - Kay #1, Adele #2 with Nicole #3 and TU #4.

Yeah I actually agree with that. It has a definite element of cheese that makes it seem more retro than it is. I heard it on the radio the other day for the first time in ages and it didn't sound like a late 2000's decade song.

Lol, I meant the second bit. I'd forgotten that RR was deleted part way through the week and that helped PF get the #1 spot for 1 week. I was pissed with BBP at the time, didn't PF spend like 7 of those 12 weeks BBP was #1 at #2? :( Anyway, PF deserved #1 in the US, and for more than 1 week. Its one of the defining songs of the last 5 years.

Explain yourself, young man :P

If you mean something like if Nicole beats Adele by 10k then Adele also beats TU by 10k, then yes it makes sense; I hope that TU's physicals don't reverse the lead Adele has built up over them. Or did you mean Nicole's lead over Adele prior to CR was matched by Adele's lead over TU prior to CR? Either way, I hope both are true, and TU drop out of, or close to being out of, the top 10 officially next week.

Thanks, Bray. That is odd that Jessie is gaining on Adele, guess Adele has had most of her "performance effect" build into her pop bar already and Jessie's "weekend effect" is now outweighing what is left of Adele's "performance effect". So Nicole is selling two-thirds of Adele/Wanted excluding physicals, therefore say Nicole would sell 15k today at most I would presume, that would put Adele/Wanted on 22.5k each excluding physicals, which if Nicole was 20-odd thousand ahead in the Wednesday/Thursday mids (which would have been an even bigger lead by the time CR came around) would put Nicole well out of reach, she'll probably be #1 by at least 10k on Sunday, probably actually by 15-25k. Looks like Adele has the #1 combined iTunes bar in the bag for midnight tonight, and Nicole easily has the #1 spot in the bag officially.

Lol, yeah I love that bit too!!! :rofl: And I too, assumed it might be something of the, erm, naughty variety :blush: Anyone do a Bray update on the pop bars combined? I've left my ruler at work and its going to be close between TU and Adele by close of play today (which is relevant for both the official charts tomorrow in terms of who is @ #2 out of Adele and TU but also my prediction game with one of the bonus questions asking who would be #1 on iTunes combined at 23:59 on Saturday 19th March).

Its ok, I know you're a pixel cruncher :P

My nose after the innuendo of my last statement.

SLY album version seems to have dropped a little bit, either that or Nicole has increased since the last update.

Alternatively, I could use something else that is 8 inches in length ...

Found a ruler :), so in true Bray styleeee :lol: 1. Nicole still 100% 2. Adele 92% of Nicole (+9%) 3. Jessie 73% of Nicole (+4%) 3. Jessie 79% of Adele (-4%) 4. The Wanted 63% of Nicole (+4%) 4. The Wanted 68% of Adele (-3%) 4. The Wanted 86% of Jessie (No movement) Conclusion:- Everyone gaining on Nicole Adele accelerating away from both Jessie and The Wanted (:o) Jessie and The Wanted stable.

Always the bloody bridesmaid (well, the last 2 weeks anyway :() :cheer: Thankyou :) Funny that :P

Adele cannot be far when combined from Nicole. Anyone got a ruler handy?

The way the pop bars are, I think Nicole will hold onto the #1 spot right through until after Adele performs on CR. Maybe even into Saturday dependant on when Adele performs, what she performs (likely to be SLY but she may surprise us) and how big the boost will be. Anyone know the running order for tomorrow? Specifically, when are TW and Adele scheduled to perform?

Based on its pop bar this week so far, I reckon it'll nudge 100k this week.

She has it in the bag already, stop panicking! :) As you say, she's 20k ahead (if that source is correct, and it most likely is as that margin of a lead is entirely feasible based on the pop bars so far this week) and at the moment, is still gaining. Additionally, if the sales were only up to midnight Tuesday (not Wednesday, as would be factored into today's mids) then that lead will probably be around 30-35k now. As of now, Nicole's lead is STILL being extended. There is no way on earth Adele will reverse that lead in 30-odd hours after her CR performance, unless someone shoots her on stage and there is a national outpouring of grief.
