so they could be looking at any position this week, as high as 3 or as low as 7 i'd say (only if they start dropping).

They will be fine probably, like I said both have decreased a bit so it's not like it's only The Sats decreasing, and it's not by much anyway, if they are still top 5 by Thursday then I'd say they are in with a pretty good chance of being top 5 officially.

4 HOURS AGO 04 Aloe Blacc 'I Need A Dollar' 38.3% 05 The Saturdays 'Notorious' 37.9% 0.4% Gap NOW 04 Aloe Blacc 'I Need A Dollar' 37.7% 05 The Saturdays 'Notorious' 36.9% 0.8% Gap, both slightly decreasing, however the gap is a bit wider.

04 Aloe Blacc 'I Need A Dollar' 38.3% 05 The Saturdays 'Notorious' 37.9% Still gaining. 0.4% behind, should be #4 in an hour or so.

I think this will go no higher than 4 this week and could possibly rise to 2 the next week if it keeps on climbing on iTunes. ^_^

Do downloads count for a lot in terms of sales in Spain?

So weird, was just thinking today when they would release new material, 'Dirt' was great, will have to check this out. :D

They have a small banner on the iTunes front page, so that should mabye help boost sales a bit.

Notorious now 5.

If they get anything inbetween 6-8 which is what everyone is expecting at this point, they could get sales of 35,000+ Last Weeks Sales 6 Lady Gaga [TEOG] 36,891 8 Lady Gaga [Judas] 35,365

Would be great if this just climbed to 1 on a quiet week or something on a chart run like this 8-5-3-1

Yeah I was thinking 8 as well and if it doesn't drop, then i think they could get 5 or 6 officially.

Up to 6! :) I'm glad it isn't shooting up, it's better if it climbs steadily.

Yeah, that's a good idea. :) http://i803.photobucket.com/albums/yy315/hellllloyou/Screenshot2011-05-15at012511-2.jpg I know it's not much of a difference but i cropped the sides off to make it a bit smaller. ^_^

I agree about some people are overreacting a bit, it's only been out for just less than a day, it's barely had radio play or anything. I would be a bit worried if it was at this position and had tons of promotion, big radio support etc, but not many people know about the song so 8 is really not that bad. :)

Has iTunes frozen?

I don't think it will debut lower than 15. :)

I'd be pretty happy with a debut anywhere in the top even if it is at 10 or something, I never thought on air/on sale would work for them, I know time will tell but it's doing quite well so far with only one TV performance and song/video only premiering on Thursday.

TBH I don't really care if they get number 1 now, I mean it would be a nice bonus, but I care about them selling steadily more.

Funny to think 'Forever Is Over' debuted at two with 38k of sales, and now you need 45k to get into the top 5. I'm also so excited to hear what single 2 will sound like, I hope it's another upbeat song, then a ballad for single 3 to sell the album. :wub:

Sales Predictions anyone? I'm guessing it will debut at 6 and sell anything from 35 - 40,000. :)

Anyone know how far The Sats are away from 10?
