#59 in today’s mids - deffo going to miss the Top 100 by Friday.

Kylie & Snow Patrol down from #21 in First Look to #59 today (no surprise at all though)

I think it’ll take more than a competition to keep it Top 10. I’m sure Polydor/Universal will want to do all they can to make sure it stays Top 10 so would expect some discounts or more signed variants possibly.

I’m not sure how it works for a pricing error? If the dealer price is above the threshold and they decide to discount it surely any sales will count (same as when HMV have a sale?). Amazon as they always do with competitors have price matched so it’s 99p on there too 🤣

Nelly Furtado is currently #1 on iTunes with her Greatest Hits which has a 99p price error - coming to beat its original #53 peak if it shifts a lot.

Such a great album too - there seems to have been no hype or much mass promo for it though.

Oft that’s a poor start for Sam Smith but not overly shocked. Girls Aloud at #16 - I think that’s on par with their first mids of their other re-issues?

I love it too, giving me all the indie Kylie vibes 😍

I think Dannii really enjoys these re-issues, there’s zero pressure for her, she can do as much/little promo as she chooses and she knows it’s something the fans really want too.

Justice for Chiggy Wiggy

It’s not a very exciting release in terms of artwork, I bought it for the collection to keep it complete but there is not much excitement about its release in even SH.

Love that Kylie & Snow Patrol are #21. Would love for it to chart but can see it missing the Top 100, it will be totally front-loaded with the vinyl, downloads are minimal and streaming will contribute about 10 sales.

Surprised the vinyl is still available - guessing they’ve pressed around 10k? Madonna - Boy Toy, Inc. UKMadonna - MADONNA & KYLIE - LOVE SENSATION (7" LP)THIS ITEM IS A PRE-ORDER AND WILL SHIP IN SEPTEMBER 2-TRACK VINYL SINGLE FEATURING THE AFTERHOURS 7’’ MIX AND RADIO EDIT WITH KYLIE MINOGUE. COMES IN A COLOR PICTURE SLEEVE. TRACKLIST: SIDE A - LOV...

Nice we’ve got an early update, doubt it’ll hold onto Top 100 though as can’t see many more vinyl being sold and streams/downloads are minimal.

‘Movin To The Sun’ getting a higher peak than ‘Free’

#Troll - maybe get another hobby and contribute to the forum

Or maybe RMI could stay exactly where it is and a good song can remain at #1?

If RMI moves out of the way I’m here for a country Top 2 with Ella and Stella 🙏

Not sure BMG care enough - the only time we’ve seen store downloads was for Dancing when it was challenging for the Top 40 and for XMAS in the Christmas #1 fight. Only seems like something they roll out when there is a reason to do so.

+5 Sam Fender & Olivia Dean - Rein Me In +4 Ella Langley - Choosin’ Texas +3 Stella Lefty - Boston +2 HUGEL, Imael Angel & Ultra Naté - Movin’ To The Sun +1 Ariana Grande - hate that i made you love me -1 Olivia Dean - Man I Need -2 Silva Bumpa - On 2nite -3 Shakira & Burna Boy - Dai Dai -4 Olivia Rodrigo - the cure -5 Sienna Spiro - Great Expectation

Dannii’s spoke about this with fans for a while after the success/appreciation for the NN and Girl re-issues.

Not a song I’ll keep going back to tbh - pleased we have multiple physical formats and it went Top 10, job done.

They produced 1,000 less of Sam’s versus Brandon’s.

Brandon’s Blood Records exclusive hasn’t sold out (yet!) - it’s limited to 2k and sold 1.5k so far and been available about 2 weeks so far. He always sells really well but can see Paul just edging it - can see it being a bit of a battle. Saying that I’ll be wrong and they’ll both underperform 😅

Expecting - #1 Paul Heaton #2 Brandon Flowers #3 Sam Smith I think the #1 will be a battle between Paul & Brandon
