But how many cover versions and samey songs did Westlife do compared to the Spice Girls? mmmmmmm interesting

Come On Over is a great great album get it if you don't it was in the top 3 for months and number 1 for weeks aswell really made her into a superstar really, Up was a bit of a disappointment but I hope she'll have huge success next year

I think Leona will drop from both next week with Kylie and Shayne's album both released Monday

Me thinks Leona's reign on number 1 for Bleeding Love will be over next week

I would really hope that Rhydian doesn't win XFactor I just do not like him at all, to me it's like he's hiding behind a costume with his hair and make up, where has all the rest don't have a this armour plus I think Rhydian is bad for pop music he's more for theatre and wasn't good enough to be Joseph. I would like the Sugababes to be number 1 or the Spice Girls but some novelty would be a good laugh to make the christmas number 1 fun again and not boring with xfactor xfactor xfactor!!!!

I wouldn't say Britney or Christina album were big let downs and Kelly Clarkson's album got to number 2 on both sides of the atlantic which I think after Breakaway yes it's a drop in sales but Breakaway didnt sell huge at the begining and was a slow long big burner. Spice Girls can't say its a let down SELL OUT WORLD TOUR? how many girl bands do that? You got the return of Alicia Keys and Celine Dion, also Chaka Khan is doing well in US charts. Also Beyonce is pretty good had big success this year thanks to the Freemasons

I love the Sugababes 'New Year' got it on my i-pod and it still gets played on radio 1 at christmas it is about 6 years old? Mariah Carey I'm surprised wasn't a number 1 song and bigger

I really like Call The Shots, Nadine has such a brilliant voice and their performance on Paul O'Grady I thought was way better than X-Factor. I just noticed that the new NOW album has knocked Leona off the top spot on Amazon and also the Spice Girls are in the TOP TEN for the first time, yesterday they were at 16 and in my ASDA they got the Spice Girls at number 2 AND Spice Girls are on 'Dancing With The Stars' tonight on UK Gold at 8pm I believe performing Say You'll Be There

I see people are still slating the Spice Girls, and those stats for first week releases look a bit too high aswell. Oh and if you LOVE the Spice Girls why would you want their single to flop????

I'm soooooooo happy GA have climbed to top 20 on downloads only it's pretty good going considering the album is out this week. The Spice Girls I think released the song 2 weeks early and should have released it this week because Leona's sales are 30,000 now and they could have sold a lot more this week in total instead of dribs and drabs over the last few weeks, I love the Spice Girls and wonder where all the fans are that bought the tickets. Like posted earlier why pay £60 plus selling thousands of tickets but then not buying the singles or albums to support their comeback. As to the albums I'm shocked that Westlife have climbed again but I think the top 5 is changeable very easily apart from Leona by Sunday. Hope GA get to number 2 and Spice Girls 3, KJ at 4 and Westlife at 100 hahahahahaha

Sorry if this has been posted but what are the single sales and album sales for the Spice Girls this week? Cheers

no just honesty and up frontness

Does anybody have any midweek sales for albums in the US? PLUS does anyone bother to update the international chart forum at all?

God it's nowhere near as good as Britney or Sugababes unfortunately but its Girls Aloud and its pure pop with their own sound throughout the album they aren't trying to be anyone else because they are good enough under their own sound. Don't think it will sell huge but think it will stay in top 10 until new year

I'm a big girls aloud fan and very rarely seen them sing live, think the first time in a long time they performed live at that awful Diva's program on ITV1, they've all got great voices. Though I think Sarah can go off tune a lot and also Cheryl struggles with her pitch like she did a bit last night. But then Sugababes I didn't think were great on CIN Friday night well the 2 were but Keisha was struggling at the low parts. I like Sugababes aswell they always sing LIVE. I've just downloaded some of the Girls Aloud album and it sounds good but I will obviously buy it tomorrow when iTunes decide to put it on there!!!!

I'm surprised that they are releasing the album before they release Call The Shots? They were good on X-Factor last night but think they struggle with confidence on their voices because they don't sing live often. And has for Louis Walsh comments on saying that Hope are better than the Spice Girls, newsflash who has sold out numerous world tours and sold millions of cd's world wide and had hundreds of number 1s? Louis I think is just jealous because Westlife have never cracked the world and he's just a prat

I think the Spice Girls sales will pick up next week has the cd is out physically in shops and they have done the performance on CIN which sadly they mimed but it was soooo good too see them together. Also the pictures of them doing the Kodak Theatre for Victoria Secret looked amazing so they are undisputedly the biggest girl band of all time and are definetly not going to sink, so forget about that matey!!!

thats really shocking and bad for the spice girls :angry: :???: :no: :thinking:

Well just saw the Sugababes new video 'Change' on the hits and it is very different reminds me a bit of the video they did for Shape with some special effects but they all look very pretty and gorgeous. The best part is when they are all glittery but it is a colourful video and a good one. Still wondering who my fav girl band are at the mo out of Girls Aloud and Sugababes? Spice Girls are all time favs no doubt bout that Shayne ward does YET ANOTHER BALLAD AND a video that is all bout him trying to look all butter wouldn't melt

wheres the spice girls in singles and album? iTunes they have moved up to number 4 on albums from 17 thursday morning

Well Billboard were quite nasty about her album and why not do it when there isn't 2 huge superstars releasing albums. Will this also take place for the Spice Girls album which gets released through Victoria Secret stores? Because it should be thats what I call fair play if not then it sucks and the billboard chart sucks

Why is nobody still not buying the Spice Girls album bloody hell mun

I think it's all to do with promotion afterwards, also the video's have to be good and also the song has to get played on radio and on tv. Many of the artists named above have failed to promote their singles afterwards to a great deal. Think Natasha Bedingfield is a good example where her first album was huge success but the last one wasn't because she was concentrating more in the US market which she has cracked. Then you can look at it on the other side and think songs that weren't has big as they shoulda been. I'd include Britney and Christina in this catergory, Gimme More should have been a number 1 and so should have Candyman but because they are struggling/moving on with their private lives they have failed to promote in the UK with talkshows and promo tours which they use to do.

Shocking that the Spice Girls are only a few thousand infront of Westlife and could even drop a few places, why is nobody who bought the sell out tour tickets buying the album, come on they are doing like 50 million dates in london and manchester surely they would have sold a lot more. but i think it will sell bout 400,000 by end of the year

Just saw The Spice Girls advert for TESCO's and is really funny
