Chart Commentary 30/12/06
Happy Christmas!
Singles
-------
Take That hold off Leona to keep the #1 spot...
What, you don't believe me? Possibly something to do with Leona selling
at least eleven times more copies than anyone else this week...
AIUI she sold 'only' 571k, which is significantly less than a number of
pundits were predicting, though.
New Entries (including download climbers)
Top 10 : McFly #3, Girls Aloud #4
Top 20 : Razorlight #17
Top 30 : none
Top 40 : James Morrison #30, Queen v Miami Project #31, Mary J Blige
#33, Micky Modelle/Jessy #35, Sharam (d/l) #36.
Albums
------
Take That #1 by a large margin - little else to report, except that PCD
*just* hang on in the top 75, to be the only album to survive the entire
year.
Next Week
---------
Singles
-------
Leona's sales will drop by 80-90%, but she'll still have more than
enough to keep her #1 by a very large margin.
Only two possible NE's I can see : Iron Maiden, and Sharam - both
possible top 10'ers
Albums
------
Take That seem the most likely candidate for next week's #1, but with
the post-Xmas sales kicking in, almost anything could happen!
