He sold 489,560, I think she'll sell more. There's a bit in the song that sounds really like Girls Aloud's "Beautiful ‘Cause You Love Me", the "Right now the whole world..." bit.

S&S "This is Britney’s first hit as a featured artist" Wasn't she featured on Rihanna's single version of S&M before S&S?

Don't forget 15th Dec Altern8 https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/activ-8-c...gle/id760707151

78 v poor! Hard with all the old songs popping back in & the whole of the top 40 at the start of the year being there, Skyfall seems like AGES ago now.

HOw much is Just Dance selling a week these days? Or how long will it take to reach a million, if at all?

I thought this was a thread for "The Wanted's" US sales lol

I think you can take Amelia Lily's album off the schedule :( Pity there wasn't an infinite number of gay pride events across the country this summer, it could have stood a chance.

Same old 80s songs being done, no Stock, Aitken & Waterman!!

Should definitely be by 9pm tonight!

Rebecca Ferguson will defo perform to avoid X Factor crap 2nd album sales syndrome.

It's 30 years since band aid next Christmas, it might very well get re-promoted due to some event to mark it. Can't rule it out happening sooner! I bought Band Aid 20 on CD & the over-looked, frowned upon Band Aid II on 7" & download but I've never actually purchased the original for myself.

Got to #48 non? Almost everything by Dragonette & most stuff Roisin Murphy has released solo

Cheers very interesting B-)

What about the live version of Candle in the wind from 1988?

The outhere brothers? How do people check these days without Chart Stats?

Didn't 1D come 3rd?

A solid #2 rather than a sloppy #2

Anyone know when Annie's AR ep is out?

I guess it's not all about age as they wouldn't playlist Jay Z (43), Justin Timb (32), Kanye West (36), Pink (33) & various others. If Radio 1 are going for cool, I won't be listening to it anymore, what's wrong with just good songs FFS. There'll be murder if they snub the new Kylie single just cos she's 21! (+21)(+3)

Would be totes gayist if they skipped it

3 British acts in US iTunes Top 10 - just brilliant!

I thought it was because of the dealer price of the cassette, I have that in my head for some reason. I dream of Kylie being a new entry at #2 these days!

Rock Your Body has never lost it's appeal for me

I used to think, at the height of CD Singles sales, that sales should be weighted on how much is paid for them. "Wannabe" was 99p in it's first week (debuted at #3 that week) & I think I bought Robbie Williams' "Freedom" for £1.99 for each CDS while other older hits were £2.99/£3.99 (I'd paid £4.49 for a CDS of a dance act & it had about 7 shit mixes on it). So I thought you could set the standard price at £2.99 which would count for 1 sale and if a record company was heavily discounting to get an act into the charts then 99p would count as 1/3 of a sale, £1.99 2/3s although anything over £2.99 would still count for 1 sale. In this day & age there'd be less impact if a 59p song counted as 0.6 of a sale, it might even the playing field though & stop older hits entering the Top 10 for 1 week & then disappearing until they're on X Factor/BGT/The voice again. Hardly any new releases are 79p never mind 59p. Does anyone know the reasons why record companies slash the price to 59p? I presumed it was for artists who were about to come back with new material to remind people of their biggest hits & to generate interest in their greatest hits Or possibly it sold that much back in the day that taking a reduced profit is of little consequence. Edit - I should read all entries before posting!

"Axis" is still number 2 in my "A List" playlist, behind Daft Punk's "Doin' it right". "Vocal" sounds a bit Nightlife-era (i.e Faithless wannabes) mixed with their "It's Alright" cover.
