At least 100k - massive on streaming and pure sales which will help and I’m sure his team is gonna roll out some bundles to help

It's a joint lead with Ariana's name first

Ariana has a new song out tomorrow so expect a new #1

I don't have enough time to do my ranking within the next 45 minutes with all of my work so I'm relying on everyone here to make the RIGHT decisions here

FINALLY Little Mix have reached the top 200

UK: 56k #1 US: 280k #1

scary numbers

gone too soon... Advice is a fantastic tune. OCC should honour it for him

excited to see Ariana's decimation today!

not We Are Young out so early :no: one of my favourites in the whole bunch

A bit late but thought I might as well: 1. Rihanna will return with a giant #1 and an album which will sell poorly at first but have big longevity; the singles era will be cut short (the rest will underperform). 2. Stormzy will have a massive album campaign with his first top 5. 3. Beyoncé will return with solo music and have a few top 20 hits but the album will underperform. 4. Little Mix will struggle with the rest of their current era and will quickly start the next album campaign which will be massive (#1 album, single etc.). 5. Ariana's album will have outstanding streaming numbers and have decent longevity but the album will be heavily negatively received. 6. Miley Cyrus will have a critically acclaimed album but it will underperform. 7. Nicki Minaj's album will be critically panned and the era will be canned quickly. 8. Justin Bieber will return with a DJ collab that will be a slow burner hit; his album will be massive in Q4. 9. Ariana will collab with a male artist which will break streaming records. 10. the Spice Girls will have a flop single (due to streaming) but the album will have big pure sales. 11. Another musical will have big soundtrack success but not to the extent of The Greatest Showman 12. Cardi B will struggle to have another solo hit 13. Drake’s return will be big but muted compared to his past era 14. Adele will return with a completely different sound - massive success but not anywhere close to the past 15. Mabel will reach #1 with a later single and her album will perform moderately 16. Billie Eilish will snuggle for single success after the album release 17. Due Lipa will have a muted year and Ava Max will find success as a featured artist on a song 18. Katy Perry and Lady Gaga will return with pop albums which will be somewhat big with good longevity 19. None of the 1D boys will happen this year 20. Calvin Harris will drop a massive album with high profile collabs (ie. Drake, Ariana, Ed Sheeran, Post Malone etc.) 21. Sam Smith will have a mixed reception this era with slightly disappointing sales

a bit upsetting as I had my results ready all day (just forgot to send) but I understand. Excited for the results!

I'm so sorry but I'm hoping my votes can be counted (25 mins late). +25 Fun featuring Janelle Monae - We Are Young +24 Britney Spears - Toxic +23 Cheryl Cole - Fight For This Love +22 Little Mix - Shout Out To My Ex +21 Years & Years - King +20 Clean Bandit featuring Zara Larsson - Symphony +19 Mika - Grace Kelly +18 Camila Cabello featuring Young Thug - Havana +17 Coldplay - Viva La Vida +16 Lady Gaga featuring Colby O'Donis - Just Dance +15 Sugababes - Push The Button +14 Martin Garrix - Animals +13 Lady Gaga - Bad Romance +12 The Spice Girls - Say You'll Be There +11 Adele - Hello +10 Sugababes - Freak Like Me +9 Tina Charles - I Love To Love (But My Baby Loves To Dance) +8 Marvin Gaye - I Heard It Through The Grapevine +7 Donna Summer - I Feel Love +6 Britney Spears - Everytime +5 Diana Ross - Chain Reaction +4 Calvin Harris and Alesso featuring Hurts - Under Control +3 Evanescence - Bring Me To Life +2 Enya - Orinoco Flow +1 Bonnie Tyler - Total Eclipse Of The Heart

Ariana's lead is much smaller here than in the US - it's decimating there (more sold than entire top 5) while here it's just doing decent for a #1 on iTunes.
