Those sales were my 'scoop' :lol: and I've been following the sales with interest - I thought the 15k added from Tues to Weds was disappointing but they've help up well with 13k and 12k respectively the following two days. With Alan Carr I don't think they will fall below 10k on either of the remaining days, plus the weekend effect so I think we're looking at 107k+ - personally I think they can do a tad more than that assuming the performance is good. I do think they might fall JUST short of beating 1D to the fastest seller but I'm going to say 111k.

I think it's very simply split into verses Verse 1 - Zayn (first four lines) Verse 2 - Liam Chorus - Harry (with Liam/Niall on harmony) Verse 3 - Louis Verse 4 - Harry Chorus - Harry Middle 8 - Niall Chorus - Harry Chorus repeat - All I actually really like it! I'm a big Ed Sheeran fan though so perhaps not a surprise. It's different for them which is nice. I agree it's risky but I think they mostly all sound great (Louis still sounds basic and grates in harmony too) but the others are brilliant, Niall's middle 8 is so simple but actually quite beautiful and he uses his voice in ways we might not have heard before for a couple of the notes..

That's correct - 7, 8 and 10 in the order you mentioned them. Matt currently on 7.5k so hopefully around 25k by the weekend to take his total to nearly 100k as Herbs says.

It's Coldplay, Noel, Michael, Kelly, Bruno - you can choose to believe me if you will :P Coldplay have shifted 95k, and Pro Green has done 67k - shit the bed!

Considering this was before Daybreak and they made up (apparently) 2.5k in a day, I'd hope so! Also over the week they've gained 3.8k on Adele.. you'd hope so. Probably won't be much more than 30,000 though - they're on 22k.

They're over 4000 ahead of Adele and 1700 ahead of Evanescence

I'm going to count my chickens and say that was yesterday as from what I'm hearing, they have the No.1 today! :D

Less than 400 copies :)

No problem guys, it'll likely only be this week as I'm a Sats nut but glad to help anyway :D

There's potential for Joe to be 3 by Sunday too.. he has gone a full thousand ahead of Beatles and cut Guetta's lead from 2k to 1k in a day... who knows. Good for him! Pixie 69.5k, Maroon 5 56.6k, Saturdays 53k. So the Saturdays will at least clear Missing You and hopefully get around 65k - would that outdo Just Can't Get Enough? From memory I think it just would :D

Thanks TBoy, yea it's an official 'midweek flash' my friend recieves. As for Joe holding on, he is perhaps surprisingly a comfortable 700 copies ahead of both Will and RHCP now... and Adele isn't as far behind Example as she was at the start of the week either, though still well over 5k off.

I hope it can be the Sats best first week sales too as a sort of compensation!

By far I think!

I don't think there is a need to apologise, the figures were clearly quite badly out!

WOW at Joe overtaking Will!! Expect a No.3 on Sunday for the Saturdays, kids. I'd say yesterdays figures were correct while Tuesdays unfortunately had errors, as we're now seeing Pixie at 60.8, Saturdays at 47.4 and M5 at 45.8

Yup, I'm gutted, I am no expert but I would guess the figures from Tuesday were wrong :(

Apologies, no!

I HATE to dampen spirits but either there was a mistake yesterday, or there's been one today, as I've been sent: Pixie 51k, Sats 41k, Maroon 5 36k To my mind, it's impossible that Pixie would have sold 12k, Maroon 5 10k and the Sats only 3k throughout yesterday, so there must be an error along the line. I only hope it's with todays figures and will be corrected tomorrow, as opposed to Tuesday's figures. Although given how surprised we all were, the latter seems more likely :( :(

Wow at the extra Saturdays entries.. so yeah, they could be No.1! But like I said, they won't be by the weeks end so no point getting them all excited :P But extra sales is a plus! I wouldn't say Maroon 5 making up a 12k deficit is deluded, they are selling very strongly and will do so throughout the week whereas the Saturdays won't. I think it'll be close between 2 and 3 but I hope the Saturdays hold on!

Who would overtake them? I can see Maroon 5 doing it given the ground they made up against Ed, Olly and Example last week but who else? Leona?

Potentially I guess yeah! Depends how frontloaded each is!

Yup to Leona's sales!

Yup yup, I implicitly trust the person who told me, it was just a case of you guys trusting me as I don't post here a lot :P

PS. I heard the info I have from a friend in the industry so it's up to you whether you trust me :P sure it'll be confirmed soon!

I know, they should hit 80 or 90 thousand right? I knew it;d be big! Not the No.1 I said when I first heard it but still very happy!
