"Viva La Vida" will be eligible to chart from next Thursday when it's available to download as an album track. It should go at least Top 20 I would have thought.

Down 2 places from Sunday

No news yet. I'm suspecting no news is good news from your perspective (ie big flop)!

"Not Top 38" is all we know so far

"Fascination" down 1 "Ten Thousand Nights" down 2

The majority of potential buyers it has left probably still don't yet know who it's by, causing a knock-on effect of sales through the week. I think it has the mileage to stay at #1 all week (and then fall) - especially when the media pick up on it after the first midweek flash. How many viewers did the final get? 10 million? I can see 35,000 of those downloading it for sure.

Ne-Yo is up 11 from Sunday and could well be Top 10 by Sunday if he keeps it up! "10,000 Nights" is exactly where "Fascination" was last Sunday!

It was down 35 places in Wednesday's update

Hi there, Leonafan! Single down 7 from Sunday, album down 2

Yes, I think I'm correct in saying the Top 8 haven't moved all week

Hardly any movement to speak of today. In singles September, Chris Brown and Scouting For Girls are still showing slight reclimbs from Sunday's positions. Estelle is out of the 10 as Coldplay regain a Top 10 position. Ne-Yo has been inching up a couple of places a day and isn't that far from the Top 10 now. Alphabeat's newie moves ahead of "Fascination" at last! No change for Ashlee from yesterday. Fratellis and Zutons are creeping up the chart, but hardly making the impression some were expecting. Kylie loses her Top 30 place as a result. Nothing has left the Top 40 since yesterday. In albums it's just as quiet. The only real movement comes in the bottom part, although Vampire Weekend are making good gains in the Top 20 and Osmonds are poised to move into the Top 10 by Sunday's final chart. Bobby Vee bounces back into the Top 30 quite impressively as he recovers from his huge fall on Tuesday which put him right outside the 40 from last week's #15. Girls Aloud are up a couple from yesterday, and Pendulum's last album is back in as Sparks leave the 40. Kelly Rowland is still clinging to a Top 40 position by a whisker.

Down a place from yesterday, overtaken by Bobby "Rubber Ball" Vee!

If you read my report it says that Alphabeat have pushed her down... she's up 2 from Sunday now...

Yes!

The big news today is that "Great DJ" finally becomes chart-eligible as a result of people downloading from the album. This new source from which to buy the track falls foul of no OCC rules whatsoever, so it belatedly gets itself a well-deserved chart placing. However, the listing for "Kristen" which was on the cusp of the Top 30 on Tuesday and Wednesday has now vanished! (Maybe the OCC are sorting out the correct credit for it or maybe sales have just slowed). Reclimbing in today's singles Top 40 are the usual suspects - Chris Brown and Scouting For Girls in the Top 20, but also September is moving back up slightly inside the Top 10. Kylie is still Top 30, but only just - as Fratellis overtake. Ashlee is down slightly from yesterday - as Alphabeat overtake (but they can't quite edge ahead of their own "Fascination" just yet!). Albums-wise, not much movement at all. Bobby Vee is clawing his way back up quite impressively from yesterday's bottom rung. Martha Wainwright has rallied and is back in the 40 at the expense of the last Pendulum album, and in doing so has pushed "Ms Kelly" down to the very bottom of the 40!

Unlikely. It was at the bottom of the Top 60 yesterday, and I'm guessing it's in there due to physicals over downloads
