The Illustrious World of Predicting number ones

[mizaria]

Kate Nash - Foundations - be surprised if her album doesn't go straight to number one, although it depends what else is released that week.

Robyn with Kleerup - With Every Heartbeat - lots of people think this, i really hope it does, but am as yet unconvinced

R Kelly with Usher – Same Girl - Hoping against hopes, its not...cos its terrible!

Hard Fi – Suburban Knights - deserves to be

Maximo Park - Girls Who Play Guitars - as does this - but it WONT

Shayne Ward – If That’s Ok With You - this HOPEFULLY WONT

Kanye West - Stronger - this is an undeserved number 1, but its a comback and its kanye, so can see it just about troubling the top ten.

50 Cent feat Justin Timberlake & Timbaland - Ayo Technology - this could well hit the top, its like put justin timberlake on anything - people'll buy it, combine it with timbaland's recent continuous top streak, and the comeback of 50...it is all very plausible

Athlete – Hurricane - I'd like to see this at least, reach teh dizzy heights of the top 5


KT Tunstall – Hold On - top 20

Natalie Imbruglia – Glorious - the same maybe top 15


Editors - An End Has A Start - left too long before releasing - probably top 20 *fingers crossed*

Freaks - The Creeps (Get On The Dancefloor) - top ten, probably top 5

Girls Aloud - Sexy! No No No - top ten, though its crap, just missing top 5 me thinks!

James Blunt – 1973 - its crap, but this is probably detined for at least a top three placing, most likely a number one.


Plain White T's - Hey There Delilah - although this could be a number one

Rihanna - Shut Up And Drive - i think this'll also hit the top, but probably (maybe) before its released, its down on the release schedule as 3rd September.


Sean Kingston - Beautiful Girls - also 3rd september, almost certainly a nubmer 1

Will I Am - I Got It From My Mama (Genetics) - top 10 at least, number 6

Katie Melua – If You Were A Sailboat - is this new (a combeack, i mean) im thinking top 10 then.

Stereophonics – It Means Nothing - havent heard it, but probably a top ten.

Sex Pistols – God Save The Queen (7”) - be interesting to see where this goes in a few months time (released 10th oct)

[wonderwall]

hard fi should go top 10 and james blunt easy number 1

[IndiElectronica]

Freaks - The Creeps (Get On The Dancefloor) - top ten, probably top 5

this is JUST NOW making it to the UK?! Had this song for a year now!! Good song, and I quite like it, but I would surprised at any chart success...

I think HardFi will be top 3 actually.

Interesting Thread:

Kate Nash - Foundations - Such a shame this wont be #1 now, i wouldnt mind so much but just 16 copies behind really frustrates me!!

Robyn with Kleerup - With Every Heartbeat - This will hopefully go to #1 next week.

R Kelly with Usher – Same Girl - Top 10 at best for this i reckon

Hard Fi – Suburban Knights - Really growing on me now, think it should go top 5 i reckon

Shayne Ward – If That’s Ok With You - Its alright but i cant see #1, top 5 though i should think.

Kanye West - Stronger - It will be this or Robyn next week i reckon, hopefully will miss out to Robyn though. I dont hate it, just dont think it should reach #1

50 Cent feat Justin Timberlake & Timbaland - Ayo Technology - Its ok, but like you say, name alone could see this go to #1, not convinced though.

KT Tunstall – Hold On - Think she may go top 10 with this.

Girls Aloud - Sexy! No No No - Everyone always praises them yet i think it will be lucky to reach top 5, its certainly no 'Something Kinda Ooh' which was fab

James Blunt – 1973 - This is a real grower, nothing great, in fact its pretty bland but itll do the trick for the album. Its out on 27th August on downloads, think it has the potential to reach #1 on downloads alone (think its main competition will be Sean Kingston).

Sean Kingston - Beautiful Girls - Out on downloads on 27th and physical out 3rd. Should think a #1 is on the cards. Was thinking that James may enter at #1 on downloads but fall the next week as im sure Sean Kingston's physical sales will be quite good.

Now Plain White T's - Hey There Delilah and Rihanna - Shut Up And Drive have both been released for downloads FAR too early! Both will go top 10 on downloads, i guess PWT have a shot at #1 (actually they both do) but with them out so early, i suspect they'll both miss out.

I also see Dido's album will be out later this year, the lead single may do very well i think (hopefully itll be a good starter like White Flag was).

"Beautiful Girls" has #1 written all over it.

[Al]

Nice thread

I really hope Sean Kingston doesnt get #1
Would love to see Rihanna get a second with Shut Up & Drive
& hopefully Girls Aloud will pull off another top 3 placing.

[Serge Freeman]

I was so wrong with Darren! he's top 10 in midweeks!

[ManicKangaroo]

but likely to fall Serge - you could be right yet
