How does the charts work?

Because BEP's have been in there 7 weeks and there number 3, does that decrease there chance of no.1 because people have already brought there single in the other weeks??

I just dont understand the charts, can you explain it please.

Help please.

I'm not sure lol.

I think it is based on weekly sales.

Not quite because some singles in the past have taken months since its original release date to reach the top.

It just charts if there is a sudden interest in the single/artist which charts it to number 1 such as the media reports on the artist (Look at MJ in the album charts this year for example).

I dont think BEP will have their single in the charts to be number 1 tbh.


EDIT - Its all do do with sales.

It is weekly sales :)

So say Leona got 500,000 one week
And BEP got 400,000 the same week

Leona would be no 1 and Bep would be no 2

But in the next week.. BEP may get another 300,000 sales
And Leona's sales for that week may have dropped to 200,000
BEP would be no 1 that week.

:)

I really Hope Leona gets number 1, ive brought her single Twice

Me too. She deserves it way more than BEP; I don't get all the hype over them, they aren't THAT good.
