UK Chart Discussion: Bingo Players - Get Up Official UK #1

[Iceman]

Fair play Olly :)

[Maia]

Emily Sunday song is brilliant.. (I know I've spelt it wrong)

Emeli Sandé :laugh:

Yeah I love that song too :D Shame it didn't go to #1 last week but #2 is pretty good nevertheless.

[Marc]

Why you ':bored:'ing Olly? :suspect:

[Marc]

Emeli Sandé :laugh:

Yeah I love that song too :D Shame it didn't go to #1 last week but #2 is pretty good nevertheless.

Ooh...why can't she just have a normal name? :laugh:

[Locke.]

Another #1 to the real winner of X Factor

[CharlieO]

I like 'Heart Skips a Beat' and 'Feel So Close'. :)

[Iceman]

Another #1 to the real winner of X Factor

you got it right for once. What's up with that :suspect:

[Doogle]

I hate those guys in Olly's new song and it doesn't deserve #1. Moves Like Jagger ftw.

[Novo]

2 #1's now for Olly

[Marc]

Example big contender next week

[Iceman]

2 #1's now for Olly

An 1 with the XF Finalists

[Doogle]

Thinking of Me deserved #1 too.

[bbfan1991]

Olly deserves that number 1, that song is really good:).

He's a United fan too so that's some better news on this day!:amazed:

[Callum]

Meh, would have preferred "Moves Like Jagger" to be no. 1.

[Shaun]

Why you ':bored:'ing Olly? :suspect:

because he's absolutely terrible.

[Marc]

Fair enough :laugh:

[Callum]

Example and Red Hot Chili Peppers have stormed the singles and albums charts this week.

Example's 'Stay Awake' is on course for the top spot on the singles chart this Sunday, closely followed by Ed Sheeran's 'You Need Me, I Don't Need You', which enters at two.

Meanwhile, Cover Drive land at number eight with their debut single 'Lick Ya Down', and Bruno Mars's 'Marry You' remains on the edge of the top ten at 11.

Nicole Scherzinger's 'Wet' climbs four places from last week to 21, Florence + the Machine remain at 24 with 'What the Water Gave Me', and David Guetta and Nicki Minaj's 'Turn Me On' starts at 39.

On the albums chart, Red Hot Chili Peppers look likely to score their third number one album with I'm With You - their first record since 2006's chart-topping Stadium Arcadium.

Elsewhere, David Guetta's Nothing But The Beat enters at number two and Bombay Bicycle Club land at five with A Different Kind of Fix.


Lil Wayne's Tha Carter IV debuts at seven, and Dolly Parton's Better Day is at nine.

Another dreadful no. 1 then

[MeMyselfAndI]

Moves like Jagger deserves #1 D:

[Shaun]

Stay Awake is decent. A lot better than most of the year's #1s

[Iceman]

Chili's :worship:

have to get that album tomorrow.

[Jordan.]

Another dreadful no. 1 then

Hate example, arrogant prick :bored:

[Callum]

04/09/11 Top 10:

1. (-) Example: 'Stay Awake'
2. (3) Maroon 5 ft. Christina Aguilera: 'Moves Like Jagger'
3. (1) Olly Murs ft. Rizzle Kicks: 'Heart Skips A Beat'
4. (-) Ed Sheeran: 'You Need Me I Don't Need You'
5. (2) Calvin Harris: 'Feel So Close'
6. (6) Christina Perri: 'Jar Of Hearts'
7. (4) Wretch 32 ft. Josh Kumra: 'Don't Go'
8. (5) Will Young: 'Jealousy'
9. (-) Cover Drive: 'Lick Ya Down'
10. (18) Sean Kingston: 'Party All Night (Sleep All Day)'

[Joelle.]

A pretty poor Top 10 apart from Jar Of Hearts.

How that Ed Sheeran guy is doing so well I will never know. :bored:

Its a shame most of the Number 1's these days seem to either be by rappers or X Factor products. I would much rather see artists like Florence + The Machine and Marina And The Diamonds have more success in the singles chart.

[Maia]

Ed Sheeran is so arrogant in his new song, it's like "oh yeah The A Team did well so now I'm gonna write a song about how great I am x"

[Joelle.]

He comes across as a bit of a twat. :laugh:

[Iceman]

Pixie Lott has entered the UK midweek chart at number one with her new single.

The singer has topped the chart with 'All About Tonight', while pop five-piece The Saturdays closely trail with their new track 'All Fired Up'.

Maroon 5 slip a place down to three with Christina Aguilera collaboration 'Moves Like Jagger' and Leona Lewis enters the chart at four with new single 'Collide'.

Former number one 'Stay Awake' by Example tumbles to five, while Sean Kingston's 'Party All Night' continues to rise by moving up two places to eight.

Snow Patrol are lingering just outside the top ten at 11 with new track 'Called Out In The Dark' and Adele's 'Someone Like You' shoots up 13 places to 14 following her performance on last week's MTV VMAs.

Further down the chart, Ms. Dynamite enters at 26 with her new song 'Neva Soft', and the latest cut from Rihanna's Loud, 'Cheers (Drink To That)', lands at 28.

Example has topped the midweek album chart with his third studio record Playing In The Shadows.

Adele moves up two places to two with 21, while David Guetta's Nothing But The Beat completes the top three.

Further new entries come from Doris Day with her new album My Heart, which is currently sitting at number nine, and Santo Spirito Blues by Chris Rea, which rounds off the top ten.

Official Album Chart logo
The Drums land at 29 with Portamento, while Melanie C cracks the top 40 with The Sea, which currently resides at 31.

[Locke.]

There are only 1200 sales between Pixie and The Saturdays :suspect:

[Iceman]

Should be quite close.

['Conor]

hope Pixie wins! Saturdays one is rubbish

[Maia]

Pixie on course for her 3rd #1. Excccccellent.

[Doogle]

Should be her 5th or something but whatever :D

[Joelle.]

I hope she gets it. The Saturdays don't even deserve to make the top 40 with that festering turd of a song. Hopefully Leona or Maroon 5 with overtake them.

['Conor]

The Saturdays song is good for clubs yeah, but it has about 8 lines. there just repeated 100x times.

[Z]

That's the thing, they've clearly realised that they will never release anything with lyrical merit that'll score a #1 so they've turned to the club vibe in the hopes that that'll do it for them. It won't. Everybody knows they're rubbish.


My irrational hatred for them gets stronger with every new release they put out...

[Joelle.]

The Sugababes will forever be superior to all other girl bands. :hmph:

['Conor]

Sugababes :lovedup:

[Doogle]

Sugababes :lovedup: but I will never love any song they ever make like I did the song "Change". So beautiful.

[InOne]

Go Pixie :love:

[Smithy]

Sugababes new song is out next week....but so is one directions new song http://gagadailyboards.com/images/smilies/flop.gif

[Maia]

Example is #1 on the albums chart with Playing In The Shadows. Snow Patrol have entered at #11 on the singles chart with Called Out In The Dark.

[Jordan.]

One Direction obviously going to get #1 next week http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSB5qaknjNQLx5HcY8xDZRzwlzUCMBoD ZamP_JJdtumtJHEHRwufQkzHJQ

Urgggghghhhhhh *throws things*

[Maia]

Leona Lewis is #4 with "Collide", The Saturdays are #3 with "All Fired Up".

[Maia]

Pixie Lott is #1!!!!!!!! :amazed:

[Doogle]

:lovedup:

[Iceman]

Well deserved for her.

[MeMyselfAndI]

obviously did you see howmuch it was played on radio, barely deserved

[Iceman]

LOL Haterz gon hate, you sound jealous? Are you Jealous?

Anyway yes Pixie :love:

[MeMyselfAndI]

Nope, Leona got #4 and peaked at #46 on radio airplay, and was not in top 50 during her release until 2 days ago. She beat that by #42 positions, whereas Pixie Lott peaked at #2 on radio airplay & beat it by 1. If Leonas song was played half of Pixies amount on the radio it would of been #1 easily

[Iceman]

http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lrbwzxsRzR1qzfmg1.gif

[MeMyselfAndI]

oh whatever, I'm not rising to that :rolleyes:

[Shaun]

Collide > All About Tonight

[Joelle.]

Thank god All Fired Up didn't get number 1, but Leona deserves to be higher than them :bored:

[InOne]

That's our Pixie :lovedup:

[Callum]

One Direction will be #1 next week, with potentially the biggest first week sales of the year. Their single was apparently the most pre-ordered EP on iTunes ever.

One Direction have stormed to the top of the UK singles chart with their debut release 'What Makes You Beautiful'.

The X Factor boyband - known individually as Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson - achieved the biggest first-week sales of 2011 after shifting over 153,000 copies of their eagerly-anticipated track.

The group's tally is ahead of the numbers posted by established artists such as Adele, Bruno Mars and Jennifer Lopez, who have also managed to exceed 100,000 sales in one week with their releases throughout the year.

Last week's number one 'All About Tonight' by Pixie Lott is bumped down to third place behind Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera with 'Moves Like Jagger', while Olly Murs climbs two to four with Rizzle Kicks team-up 'Heart Skips A Beat'.

Will Young returns to the single digits this Sunday with 'Jealousy', which is up to nine from 12, and Leona Lewis - the third X Factor act in this week's Top 10 - crashes six places from four with 'Collide'.

Album chart champion Ed Sheeran drops two to 12 with his latest track 'You Need Me, I Don't Need You' as its + predecessor 'The A Team' climbs four to 14, squashing in beside 'Marry You' by Bruno Mars at 13.

Also rising this week is 'Cheers (Drink To That)', the sixth release from Rihanna's fifth studio Loud, which is up a massive 11 places to 15 in its sixth Sunday on the chart.

Snow Patrol and Wretch 32, however, come tumbling down five and four places respectively to 16 and 17 with 'Called Out In The Dark' and 'Don't Go'.

The top half of the chart concludes with 'Who's Laughing Now' by Jessie J climbing three to 18, Rizzle Kicks tripping from 15 to 19 with 'Down With The Trumpets' and Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds scoring a new entry at 20 with 'AKA...What A Life!'

The Top 10 in full:

1. (-) One Direction: 'What Makes You Beautiful'
2. (2) Maroon 5 ft. Christina Aguilera: 'Moves Like Jagger'
3. (1) Pixie Lott: 'All About Tonight'
4. (6) Olly Murs ft. Rizzle Kicks: 'Heart Skips A Beat'
5. (3) The Saturdays: 'All Fired Up'
6. (5) Example: 'Stay Awake'
7. (7) Calvin Harris: 'Feel So Close'
8. (8) Christina Perri: 'Jar Of Hearts'
9. (12) Will Young: 'Jealousy'
10. (4) Leona Lewis ft. Avicii: 'Collide'

:bawling:

[Smithy]

Hopefully it'll just plummet off of the face of the charts now :idc:

[Doogle]

ew ffs.

what big release is there this week? since i lost my iPod i dont check iTunes now

[Smithy]

dappy is @ #1 on iTunes doogle

-dies-

[Doogle]

what the ****

[Callum]

UK chart is in such a dire state at the moment, well it has been all year really.

[Doogle]

shame when amazing songs by the older artists like Britney (I'm loving Criminal) won't do well when they're clearly better songs than the likes of Crappy Dappy and Wretch 32 etc.

[Callum]

The week after Dappy, this ****ty song will be #1. :bored:

gbpsXomIbVY

[Smithy]

I hate that loca song sfm :bored:




I think the last decent number one was actually SLY back in march, but they over played it so much I kinda hate it now D';

[Doogle]

Keep hearing people talk about that but I haven't heard it.

It's sad that you can correctly predict the number ones of the whole month ahead.

I prefer Billboard. The number ones are usually Katy Perry or something like that but it's got no chav ****

[Callum]

Yep, I Wanna Go flopped and it's looking like Yoü and I will too. Such a travesty when songs like What Makes You Beautiful are getting to #1. :bored: Criminal will likely flop too, you're right.

[Doogle]

Only number ones I've LOVED this year (I usually love loads):
We R Who We R, Don't Hold Your Breath, Swagger Jagger, All About Tonight

How did Promises make number 1?! It's just noise. Not to mention she makes me wanna, dont go etc.

[Kazanne]

Never understood why people get so angry when other people do not like their type of music,music is diverse and people like different types,some like, classical ,jazz,rock etc,it's good our tastes are different,so why get stroppy because a certain type of music gets to number one,but it's not one you like?we can all buy and listen to our faves afterall,it's no big deal,but it is kinda funny how people get.As for One Direction,it's not my cup of tea,but I understand lots of people must like it,so bought it.

[Callum]

Agreed about SLY, I still like it but I don't love it like I did on first listen, thanks to the UK raping it.

Billboard >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> UK chart, I agree Doogle. I like how they include airplay too, although I'd hate that over here because JLS would be #1 for like 15 weeks because SMMW's airplay was ridicuously high. Same with all Olly Murs songs.

It all sounds similar. I do like a lot of it, but it is true. I would be okay with it if there were more genres. I do my own weekly chart based on what I listen to most per week and it's always a lot more diverse and I look at it and wish the real chart had more than about 3 genres :joker:

I know, I got addicted to it (yeah addicted to a chart, a bit odd) at the end of 2009 and was fascinated by how it works and how in depth it is and how they measure airplay. It wouldn't work over here, it'd just add to the length of which songs are #1 as you said (look at black eyed peas having 26 weeks @ #1 in america in 2009) but I think it's great.

[Maia]

One Direction #1 and Dappy going for #1 next week.

[Saph]

I feel embarrassed :bored: Imagen people from other countries looking at UK number ones and seeing the load of **** that cloggs up the chart nowadays...

[Harry!]

Such terrible news.

The only number 1's this year I liked were: Price Tag, Someone Like You, On The Floor and Party Rock Anthem (:blush:). The rest were horrible. This year in general is bad for music and all the good songs don't get a look in.

[Doogle]

This year has been an amazing year for new artists (and Natalia Kills under her 28329th persona) yet none of them have really had a chance. Instead a bunch of **** new artists like Wretch 32...and all the others in the top 10 I cant even remember because theyre so forgettable

[Callum]

I feel embarrassed :bored: Imagen people from other countries looking at UK number ones and seeing the loud of **** that cloggs up the download chart nowadays...

Yeah, it really is embarassing. I'd rather Moves Like Jagger spent 5 weeks at number one than Dappy, One Direction and Sak Noel getting a week each. :bored:

[Doogle]

Moves Like Jagger has been robbed imo

[Maia]

Moves Like Jagger should've been #1 this week.

It's a much better chart overall and I like how songs can gradually climb to #1 over there, too. I know Rolling In the Deep took a few months to get to #1 over there, unlike over here where a song always debuts at #1 then shoots down the chart week after week. Airplay being added to the chart would be awful over here, because the radio stations always prioritise British artists even if the songs are crap, and the same songs get played constantly.

[Harry!]

If I had my way I would of made Melanie C's album number one last week. :(

It is. I love that a song going straight to number one is a big thing there, rather than it being normal. Watching the song slowly climb or have a big surge in popularity like Hey, soul sister is cool.The only thing I don't like is how long a song stays on the chart, and how long it takes some songs to climb. Like **** You! by Cee-Lo Green peaking at #2 this year.

[Jordan.]

LOL Harry.

[Maia]

Only #1s I've really liked this year were We R Who We R, Someone Like You, Party Rock Anthem, Promises and All About Tonight. There's a few others I liked but most #1s this year have been really terrible. Jason Derulo, Bruno Mars, The Wanted, JLS, urghh :bored:

[Harry!]

LOL Harry.

And if I had my way Aqua's How R U Doin? would of been number 1 for at least a week.

Let's hope 2012 is better.

[Callum]

And if I had my way Aqua's How R U Doin? would of been number 1 for at least a week.

I think Madonna will be able to get another #1 with the first single from her new album. I don't think her popularity has waded much over here, Celebration peaked at #3 back in 2009.

[Z]

I don't really like the way the music industry works over here. I find it ridiculous that Radio 1 pretty much decides the fate of everyone's careers. How is it that somebody can go and devote 2 years of their life, putting their heart and soul into an album, only for Radio 1 to decide that the public won't like it so they're not going to play it. It's the most illogical thing. The public are herded into liking songs they hear through a combination of personal taste and exposure - it pisses me off that Wretch 32, for example, has been pushed forward from the pack as this "amazing new artist" (and that's no comment on how good or bad he is) when there are countless other artists who are just as talented, perhaps more so, who don't get given a chance.

This is just my personal taste, but I hope people recognise this regardless, but I think Mutya Buena is a wonderfully talented singer who should be celebrated in this country. It pisses me off, therefore, to see her score three top 20 hits and then for her label to see that as a bit of a flop so to abandon promoting her entirely and watch as her next two singles tank and suddenly she's disappeared off the face of the music industry, with only the occasional collaboration. I don't know the ins and outs of the situation, but I think it's just one example of how weirdly cut throat the music industry can be. I think there are far too many one hit wonders who aren't given a second chance by the industry. I could rant about this for hours...

[Harry!]

I think Madonna will be able to get another #1 with the first single from her new album. I don't think her popularity has waded much over here, Celebration peaked at #3 back in 2009.

I really don't know how tbh. She did hardly any promo (which is honest). She did like 1 interview in the UK that's it. And the album charted at number 1. I hope she gets to number 1 <3. And I WANT HUGE PROMO NEXT TIME!

[Callum]

Yeah, there wasn't much promo at all but I think it's a perfect example of a good song doing well. It had good airplay too IIRC. Me too on both accounts, lots of promo for the new era would be fab!

[Patrick]

I just... I cant.
God I hate 2011's music sfm!

[Patrick]

Moves Like Jagger should've been #1 this week.
That got old in 4 days :(

[Tom]

Getting really wound up with the Chart Show lately, all they seem to do is play crap remixes of songs

oh for gods sake, just as I'm writing they put that daft remix of Adele- Set fire to the rain on :mad: third one in a row

[Niall]

Dappy?! Number 1?! This country has no musical taste what so ever. Jesus.

Radio 1. They've played quite a few so far

[Doogle]

Moves Like Jagger is this years LTWYL. Robbed of #1 every ****ing week

[Callum]

Is there any major releases next weekend? If not then I can see MLJ getting a week, it keeps climbing to #1 on iTunes.

[Iceman]

September 25
Delilah: 'Go'
Skylar Grey: 'Invisible'
Sugababes: 'Freedom'

Thats just from DS could well be more.

[Jordan.]

Moves Like Jagger deserves #1 next week it's held up for weeks now.

[Smithy]

Isn't that loca song released this week?

[Z]

Sugababes have derailed again, not too sure what the deal is but apparently Freedom is now no longer a single but just a "promotional buzz" and is being distributed for free through Amazon?! So I've no idea if that means it's eligible to chart or what - but it's not been playlisted by Radio 1 or Capital FM so it seems like they've decided to give up rather than be embarrassed further...

[Doogle]

Invisible deserves to be #1, but I want MLJ more

[Joelle.]

A contender for worst No.1 of the year, but then again what isn't a contender this year? :laugh:

Moves Like Jagger should just permanently become number 1 to prevent any more awful **** getting it.

[Iceman]

I'd love Invisible to chart well. Has she gotten any Radio Play over there?

[Iceman]

Bad Meets Evil continue to climb the charts :D number 10 in the update....will probably make 11-12 though

[Callum]

Sak Noel is number one as well :( Sad day for the music industry

[Doogle]

**** sake.

[Iceman]

Havent heard it yet :/ maybe I shouldnt hear it :laugh:

[Maia]

And I said to him...





Johnny...la gente esta muy loca!

[Doogle]

All day all night

[Callum]

I can't see MLJ getting to number one at all now. Sad because I actually think it's one of Maroon 5's strongest singles ever and it deserves to be #1 over some of the tripe that's topping our chart week in week out.

[Jordan.]

I thought to myself... what the ****

[andy191]

When I came to Spain, and I saw people partying, I thought my myself...

[Iceman]

Nirvana's Nevermind re-enters at Number 5 on the album charts, 548th week on the chart :worship:

[Iceman]

Bad Meets Evil Ft Bruno Mars finally cracks the top 10 :amazed: only took 16 weeks

[Callum]

Rihanna has broken a UK singles chart record by taking her latest track 'We Found Love' to number one.

The Bajan singer becomes the first female solo artist to top the chart six times in five consecutive years, having previously held pole position with 'Umbrella', 'Take A Bow', 'Run This Town', 'Only Girl (In The World)' and 'What's My Name' between 2007 and January this year.

'We Found Love', which also features veteran producer Calvin Harris, sold over 87,000 copies within just four days of release. It serves as the lead track from Rihanna's upcoming sixth studio album Talk That Talk.

Rihanna's late arrival prevents Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera from finally breaking through to the top spot, as 'Moves Like Jagger' settles for second-place for a sixth week in a row.

Outgoing number one 'Loca People' by Sak Noel drops down to third, One Direction gain a place with 'What Makes You Beautiful' at four and Goo Goo Dolls finish the top five with 'Iris', which leapt back to the single digits last Sunday after it was covered by X Factor finalist Frankie Cocozza.

A few spots behind are electric hip-hop duo LMFAO, who glide to seven from 20 with the week's highest climber 'Sexy And I Know It'.

Elsewhere, Pixie Lott crashes out of the Top 10 for the first time with 'All About Tonight', down five to 14, David Guetta and Usher team-up 'Without You' jumps to 15 from 18 and Rihanna celebrates a second appearance in the Top 20 on Nicki Minaj track 'Fly', which is up eight at 16.

Calvin Harris and Bruno Mars fall five apiece to 18 and 19 with 'Feel So Close' and 'Marry You', while the top 20 concludes with Charlene Soraia and her cover of The Calling classic 'Wherever You Will Go', a new entry this Sunday.

The Top 10 in full:

1. (-) Rihanna ft. Calvin Harris: 'We Found Love'
2. (2) Maroon 5 ft. Christina Aguilera: 'Moves Like Jagger'
3. (1) Sak Noel: 'Loca People'
4. (5) One Direction: 'What Makes You Beautiful'
5. (3) Goo Goo Dolls: 'Iris'
6. (4) Dappy: 'No Regrets'
7. (20) LMFAO: 'Sexy And I Know It'
8. (6) James Morrison: 'I Won't Let You Go'
9. (7) Jason Derulo: 'It Girl'
10. (10) Bad Meets Evil ft. Bruno Mars: 'Lighters'

Poor Maroon 5

[Harry!]

Rihanna needs to go away for a while, already releasing songs from her 6th album wile still on her Loud tour. Quite bad really.

[Joelle.]

I can't believe that's Number 1 when Cheers hasn't even left the Top 20 yet. People obviously can't get enough of her. Moves Like Jagger is obviously very close considering it topped the chart update, hope it gets at least one week at the top. :love:

[Shaun]

some soppy girly version of "Wherever You Will Go" charted at #7; the original only #25 :suspect:

[Smithy]

^

Coz it's being used in a twinings advert atm

[Iceman]

Steps get a number 1 album with the Ultimate Collection

[Doogle]

So has that stopped the long chain of number 1s getting 1 week only. I think the record of the most number ones in a row was in 2000 though, doubt it was beaten :joker:

[Locke.]

Good to see The Calling back in the chart. Hopefully it will climb next week aswell after last nights X Factor

Haha and people falling over themselves doing promotion dont get a look in!:dance:

[Tom4784]

I'm happy that Lana Del Ray got a top ten debut, she did next to no promotion and the song got to where it did on the strength of it alone.

[Locke.]

The Calling up to #16 :worship:

Seems doing no promo works for some people, off the top of my head over the past few months its worked for Rihanna, Eminem, Lana Del Ray......then there's the likes of Gaga who does primetime TV but the single drops in the charts? It just baffles me.

[Shaun]

Rihanna and Eminem have a slight advantage in erm...being heard of around here, though. Not really the same thing.

Professor Green has scored his first UK singles chart number one with Emeli Sandé collaboration 'Read All About It'.

The Hackney-born rapper's fifth studio release sold over 153,000 copies in its first week, just 1% less than the total achieved by 2011's fastest-selling single so far, 'What Makes You Beautiful' by One Direction.

This week's runner-ups Labrinth and Tinie Tempah also post impressive seven-day sales of 115,000 copies for their latest team-up 'Earthquake', while previous number one 'We Found Love' by Rihanna and Calvin Harris settles in at three.

Elsehwere, Kelly Clarkson boosts two to four with 'Mr Know It All' and Charlene Soraia dips to six with The Calling favourite 'Wherever You Will Go'

Rizzle Kicks, meanwhile, debut at eight with 'When I Was A Youngster', last week's runner-up 'Lightning' by The Wanted crashes to nine and Gym Class Heroes complete the Top 10 with their Adam Levine team-up 'Stereo Hearts', which is down five.

Christina Perri's X Factor-fuelled return to the Top 10 ends as 'Jar Of Hearts' drops four to 11, while Ed Sheeran zooms in the opposite direction with 'Lego House', at 12 from last week's 18.

Lana Del Rey drops six to 15 with 'Video Games', landing between new entries 'Paradise' from album chart champions Coldplay and 'You Make Me Feel' by Cobra Starship at 14 and 16 respectively.

Meanwhile, 'Got 2 Luv U' by Sean Paul and Alexis Jordan tumbles six to 17, Bruno Mars scores a new entry at 19 with 'Runaway Baby' and Ed Sheeran appears again to wrap up the top half of the chart with 'The A Team', which is down six from 14.

The Top 10 in full:

1. (-) Professor Green ft. Emeli Sandé: 'Read All About It'
2. (-) Labrinth ft. Tinie Tempah: 'Earthquake'
3. (1) Rihanna ft. Calvin Harris: 'We Found Love'
4. (6) Kelly Clarkson: 'Mr Know It All'
5. (4) Maroon 5 ft. Christina Aguilera: 'Moves Like Jagger'
6. (3) Charlene Soraia: 'Wherever You Will Go'
7. (8) LMFAO: 'Sexy And I Know It'
8. (-) Rizzle Kicks: 'When I Was A Youngster'
9. (2) The Wanted: 'Lightning'
10. (6) Gym Class Heroes ft. Adam Levine: 'Stereo Hearts'

The top two are atrocious but Kelly rose 2 places :amazed:

[Doogle]

-likes Earthquake-

#1 can die though, Emeli sounds amazing but Pro Green is so samey.

[Callum]

Top 10:

1. (2) Rihanna ft. Calvin Harris: 'We Found Love'
2. (-) JLS: 'Take A Chance On Me'
3. (3) Labrinth ft. Tinie Tempah: 'Earthquake'
4. (1) Professor Green ft. Emeli Sandé: 'Read All About It'
5. (6) Ed Sheeran: 'Lego House'
6. (4) Cher Lloyd ft. Mike Posner: 'With Ur Love'
7. (10) David Guetta ft. Usher: 'Without You'
8. (7) LMFAO: 'Sexy And I Know It'
9. (5) Maroon 5 ft. Christina Aguilera: 'Moves Like Jagger'
10. (-) Pixie Lott ft. Pusha T: 'What Do You Take Me For'

WFL now has the second longest stint at number one this year behind Adele's Someone Like You. Pleased JLS didn't manage to get another #1 with that stupid generic Bruno Mars rip off song.

[Doogle]

Phew, Pixie made the Top 10 :D

[Jordan.]

Rihanna keeping JLS off top :amazed:

[Jords]

RIHANNA :worship:

[Niall]

Rihanna :worship:

And omfg I hate Earthquake. Tinie Tehpah can go die in a hole somewhere he's so annoying and his songs are soooooooooo overplayed. :bored:

[Stu]

I quite like that Rihanna tune actually. I could easily imagine divorcing to it.

[Callum]

Rihanna is number one for a fifth non consecutive week with We Found Love. :D Beat Flo-Rida and One Direction from the top spot.

[Locke.]

Thank god One Direction didn't get it

[Smithy]

[2]

[Doogle]

I love how she's been #1 for so long but IMO We Found Love is one of her weaker songs. :/ I'd like You Da One to reach #1 too.

[Niall]

We Found Love is actually amazing. Its such a grower. Its definitely in my top five favourite songs of her's now.

[Doogle]

It's so boring, You Da One >>>>

[Callum]

We Found Love is actually amazing. Its such a grower. Its definitely in my top five favourite songs of her's now.

Agreed. I wasn't sure of it to begin with but now I love listening to it.

[Callum]

Rihanna gets a sixth week at no. 1, blocks another XF act. :laugh2:

[Doogle]

Unstoppable :worship:

So Rihanna has the most weeks at #1 for last decade and this decade (atm, that will change of course)

[Novo]

Olly will be #1 next week

[Locke.]

Where did the awful Rebecca chart?

[Jordan.]

WFL needs to die now. It's turning into the new Somone Like You :idc:

[Callum]

Where did the awful Rebecca chart?

#10

She's not a singles artist though.

[Novo]

[Jordan.]

She's not a singles artist though.

Don't think she will be an album artist either :idc:

[Locke.]

#10... worse than Matt

Looks like Cher is going to outlast them both just like I warned you all

[Callum]

Don't think she will be an album artist either :idc:

Probably debut at #1 and stay in the top 10 for months

[Doogle]

She's done pretty well anyway, she did worse than Matt but that means nothing considering he won.

Cher is the best though, unquestionably.

[Novo]

Cher & Olly taking the music world by storm

[Black Dagger]

WFL actually ****ing sucks...

Who is buying it?

[Doogle]

WFL actually ****ing sucks...

Who is buying it?Enough people to keep it at number 1 for 6 weeks. :D

[Callum]

WFL actually ****ing sucks...

Who is buying it?

It's not outstanding but I'm more pleased that it keeps blocking all these crap XF acts from getting to number one.

[Black Dagger]

It's not outstanding but I'm more pleased that it keeps blocking all these crap XF acts from getting to number one.

Quite happy with this, it's truly a dire song though, then again in the past 4 years, I've probably liked say 25 songs that have been in the top 10.

[Jordan.]

Probably debut at #1 and stay in the top 10 for months

No chance of it staying there for months, couple of weeks at most & Hopefully Amy Winehouse will be getting the #1 album that week.

[Locke.]

Mursy spends his 3rd week on the chart at #1

[Smithy]

Don't think she will be an album artist either :idc:

She sold 128,000 copies in a week, when will your xf fave? http://gagadaily.com/public/style_emoticons/default/flutter.gif

[Jordan.]

When she releases an album at christmas time for the oldies

[Smithy]

When she releases an album at christmas time for the oldies

Smart marketing, shame your faves don't have the same common sense

[Doogle]

Arguing that her album is for oldies isn't a good argument really, she still sold more :joker:

[Locke.]

A bit like Rihanna and Gaga

[Smithy]

Outselling Cher Lloyd?

Indeed it is http://gagadaily.com/public/style_emoticons/default/flutter.gif

[Jordan.]

Smart marketing, shame your faves don't have the same common sense

Pretty sure you said before they have no say over when their stuff is released.

[Smithy]

Pretty sure you said before they have no say over when their stuff is released.

marketing by the label tho...duh, if they wanted her to sell well, shoulda released it at a time when sales are at their peak

[Jordan.]

Yeah everyone should just release in December :crazy:

[nicole_burks]

Jessie J is apparently number 1 on the BBC radio chart :amazed:


anyways- reason I came here, I was listening to BBC radion in my car today and I heard this song:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8s6duvbnC0A

it's number 14 :amazed:

[vortex]

Great song! not so much into Jessie J but she seems fun, her Alan Carr interview had me in stiches.

[Callum]

Cover Drive are sadly #1 with their abomination of a second single Twilight. One of the worst number ones I've ever had the misfortune of hearing, utter rubbish. :bored:

Ah well at least David Guetta and Sia are at #2 and are most likely going to get the #1 next week.

[Doogle]

Twilight is brilliant :worship:

[Locke.]

Great news, well deserved.

Best #1 we have had in a long time

[Maia]

Another one of those dull *1-week-at-No.1-for-the-sake-of-it* No. 1s.

Titanium = robbed, although hopefully it can climb to #1 next week.

[Locke.]

A good 6 weeks at #1 coming up for Cover Drive

[Doogle]

Wild Ones > Titanium imo

[Smithy]

Another one of those dull *1-week-at-No.1-for-the-sake-of-it* No. 1s.

I don't think it will, there's about a dozen versions of Alone Again charting on iTunes, 3 in the top 100 :sad:

[Callum]

A good 6 weeks at #1 coming up for Cover Drive

:laugh:

Never gonna happen

If that Alone Again song is #1 next week I have completely lost faith in the UK chart. Would be worse than this crap that's currently at #1. What the hell is wrong with the people buying all of this **** music?!

[Locke.]

Who sings Alone Again?

[Callum]

Who sings Alone Again?

Alyssa Reid

[Doogle]

Never heard of it :conf2:

[Smithy]

It's a cover version of some band who i can't remember the name of, I think celine diones version is the most well known

[Doogle]

Just looked it up, it was released in Canada in Dec 2010 and I've never heard it on TV/radio. No one has spoken about it actually, why is it popular :conf2:

Actually I quite like it but still

[King Gizzard]

Absolutely awful song

[Callum]

It's a cover of the classic Heart song which is superior in every single way. This talentless moron has come along and ruined it with added rap verses and not to mention it's full of autotune. All the kids will think she sings this song now. No wonder it flopped in America and most other countries, they actually have taste. :bored:

[Callum]

Absolutely awful song

Most of the songs in the UK chart fit that description these days.

[Me. I Am Salman]

I don't mind it! Quite catchy. It's waaaaaaay better than their horrible debut 'Lick Ya Down' :yuk:

-listening to the original now-

Hm the new version is everything that qualifies for a good chart position I guess. Very catchy, autotune filled, with a rapper.

[Harry!]

Guys in about 2/3 weeks time you will have a great number 1 in the chart - be patient!

[Doogle]

Madonna is not going to be #1 and even if she does it will not be a great #1.

[Smithy]

Yeah, when titanium finally gets there harry :idc:

[Me. I Am Salman]

They're actually really talented
QeeTzJFmb44
prefer it to the original

David Guetta and Sia beat Alyssa Reid to no. 1 and Lana Del Rey also climbed into the top 10 this week at 9 with Born to Die. The album unsurprisingly debuted at no. 1.

:worship:

[Jake.]

Love Titanium, the best Guetta has come up with. And those vocals :love:

[Callum]

Gotye has the new UK #1 with Somebody That I Used to Know :D

[Jordan.]

Great #1 this week

Too bad about this:

1. Gotye - Somebody That I Used to Know (feat. Kimbra) - 1.000000
2. DJ Fresh - Hot Right Now - 0.882660 :bored:

[Jords]

About time :dance: :amazed: :love: :dance: :elephant:

:bored: We've had two great number ones in a row and now I bet it'll go back to being crap number ones again starting with that horrible song next Sunday.

[Doogle]

I just went to about halfway through this thread and saw everyone listening to the chart and counting it down whilst predicting the top 10 and giving thoughts on the songs, back in Summer 2009 :joker: Wish this thread was still like that, but the chart goes on for too long and I get bored.

[Saph]

Dont like this song :suspect:

[Patrick]

-Goes to listen-

[Patrick]

meh, I feel like I should be pleased that there's no auto tune and that it's not chavy and that it sounds like real music with meaningful lyrics..

But it's not that good.

[nicole_burks]

He was on the radio this morn :amazed:

I have sirius xm in my car, and they played this song. :love:

(didn't realize he was british)

[Jords]

Madonna #37 looooool

[Harry!]

Madonna #37 looooool

Maybe if majority of the sales were not discounted it would have done better...

[Callum]

Madonna #37 looooool

Most of the purchases were disqualified because it was offered as an instant grat to anyone who pre-ordered the album. If they had been included it would have charted much higher.

[Harry!]

FYI the Give Me All Your Luvin' download with MDNA was NOT free. Many fans have reported that 99p WAS taken from accounts.

[Jordan.]

Madonna is still @ 37 on itunes so even if all the sales were counted, she'd still have a massive fall next week.

Oh and DJ Fresh has already overtaken :bored:

[Smithy]

Maybe if majority of the sales were not discounted it would have done better...

Sales from sunday - tuesday were discounted, thats not the majority, thats 3 days :joker:

[Callum]

FYI the Give Me All Your Luvin' download with MDNA was NOT free. Many fans have reported that 99p WAS taken from accounts.

Yeah exactly but the chart people don't care about that, because it was offered as part of a pre-order all sales were not counted.

Madonna has always been a big physical seller anyway, I remember Celebration didn't do that well on iTunes but with physicals combined it made the top 3. Hopefully same thing will happen with GMAYL.

[Harry!]

Sales from sunday - tuesday were discounted, thats not the majority, thats 3 days :joker:

Added together the vast MAJORITY of sales were sold Sunday-Tuesday!!! It is not about literally how many days it is about the amount of sales perchased.

Casual fans would not have perchased another copy if they got it for "free".

At least it did better than Miles Away, which reached number 39 with no promo. :hugesmile:

As Callam has said it made the top 3 and that had very little promo.

even if they were counted though, it'd have only charted in the 20's, it's been selling crap all week

[Callum]

Like I previously said Madonna has always been a big physical seller. Even though it's out of trend to buy physical CD singles these days, Madonna still manages to do well from them so when GMAYL is released physically it could still go top ten.

[reece(:]

can't wait for Rita's first number one next week :love:

[Smithy]

Emeli Sandé got #1 album :worship:

Rebecca Ferguson is up to #10 :lovedup:

Gotye was #4 & Whitney sold 78,000 copies of various albums



Hot Right Now #1 single, even though it shoulda been Emeli

Madonna flopped harder than a sack of **** and fell to 51 http://gagadaily.com/public/style_emoticons/default/lmao.gif

[Harry!]

Madonna has done hardly any promo other then the Super Bowl so it does not surprise me, maybe if it had done better the week before more people would have noticed it...

Also Radio stations are refusuing to play the song of ageist grounds.

[Callum]

Also Gaga fans should hardly be laughing considering Gaga's last two singles (You and I and Marry the Night) failed to the make the top 10. Gaga has not had a UK #1 single with her BTW era.

Radio 1 aren't playing it you're right and they never played Celebration either. They are an ageist radio station. Plus I don't think it's on Capital FM's Playlist either. What do people expect when the radios aren't supporting it?

[Callum]

Awful #1 this week :bored:

Hopefully Gotye climbs back to the top spot next week.

[Jords]

Terrible #1

[reece(:]

Glad Rita got #1 and happy for Rebecca Ferguson getting some recognition:)

[Roy Mars III]

finally someone half way decent at number one

[King Gizzard]

who even is he

[Callum]

Gotye climbed back to #1, really pleased how well this song's doing. I didn't expect it to have this much success.

Adele spends a record extending 21st week at number one on the Albums chart :worship:

Hopefully Gotye can keep hold at #1 next week and keep the awful Dappy from the top spot. It's already appalling that he has one UK #1 single, let's hope he doesn't get another.

[Brother Leon]

Dappy catching up to Gotye.


:worship: Might finally have a good number one this year.

[Smithy]

Titanium was amazing, go **** yourself with a cactus :nono:

[Joelle.]

Next To Me, Turn Me On and Titanium are the only songs in the top 10 worthy of being No 1.

[Jordan.]

Dappy catching up to Gotye.


:worship: Might finally have a good number one this year.

Dappy has already started to decline

1 Gotye - Somebody That I Used to Know (feat. Kimbra) - 1.000000
2 Dappy - Rockstar (feat. Brian May) - 0.864332

He was in the 0.9's a few hours ago http://www.modacity.net/forums/styles/smilies/emot-smug.gif

[Brother Leon]

It's still Tuesday. He outsold 1D. I'm sure he will get himself another number 1.

[Niamh.]

Not a huge fan of chart music usually but I love that Gotye song

[Smithy]

It's still Tuesday. He outsold 1D. I'm sure he will get himself another number 1.

his past 3 updates:

0.8643 0.9094 0.9108

not getting that #1 :idc:

[Brother Leon]

I dunno what that even means but it looks like its growing slowly. No UK Rapper will go straight to number one and stay there for the whole week except for maybe Dizzee.

[Benjamin]

I hope Gotye stays at #1.

[Smithy]

I dunno what that even means but it looks like its growing slowly. No UK Rapper will go straight to number one and stay there for the whole week except for maybe Dizzee.

the updates are in reverse order, i.e he was selling 91.08 of what #1 was selling 5 hours ago 90.94% 3hrs ago and 86.43% an hour and half ago

[Locke.]

Looks like I'll have to download it legally afterall

[Brother Leon]

Well, I doubt his fanbase would be able to buy it when they are asleep or in school....

[Jordan.]

The song was released on sunday they obviously all bought it then, which is why it's falling now :idc:

Hope Gotye is #1 as well, but meh at it now, anything to stop Dappy though.

[Kate!]

Hope Gotye is #1 as well, but meh at it now, anything to stop Dappy though.

How can you not like Dappy? You'll be telling me you don't like Ndubz next! :nono:

[Jordan.]

N Dubz >

It's weird how Dappy is doing better on his own when he was the worst part of the group.

[Black Dagger]

How can you not like Dappy? You'll be telling me you don't like Ndubz next! :nono:

Oh I remembered when I was 12 and they were always in my fabulous five, oh how the times change.
