Joe McElderry has a No2 album - aw bless
 

see, he's not a flop!

Classics debuts at no2 just behind another, far more successful, talent show winner Will young. Yes, its an all gay top 2.

It beats his debut album position of no3. It also kind of confirms that he is much more suited to these kind of musical numbers rather than pop. I always knew he would find work but he just needed to go where he was suited.

well done

What were the sales though?

I like Joe and he does seem suited more to classical music ,so well done to him.

35,600 sales

not bad for a flop

Meanwhile Olly has just scored his second #1

Always knew that Olly was gonna be more successful than Joe.

150 sales behind Will Young. Not sure on total though.

...
Burnnnnnnnn

good for him

they can both have some success.

His last album dropped from #3 to #20 in its second week, I wonder if he can beat that

It's weird because I didn't like Olly on the show and preferred Joe, he won but now I prefer Olly over Joe.

Olly is way more successful but Joe has done well for himself and fair play to him on this album:).

the tracklisting for Classic made me want to stab a baby

:joker:

I haven't even heard it tbh. Just think he's a lot more popular than he gets credit for. And he's a genuinely nice guy who doesn't deserve the bashings.
