Take That lead boy band charge
11:03 | Tuesday November 23, 2010
By Paul Williams

Singles

Take That, JLS and Westlife all performed a week ago on the X Factor Sunday results show, while this past weekend’s results programme is now having a big influence on the singles market.

The X Factor Finalists 2010’s version of David Bowie’s Heroes, which they performed on the show last Sunday, is on course to give Syco another number one after opening with around 72,000 sales. This is more than the sales combined of Polydor act Ellie Goulding’s Your Song and Epic act JLS’s Love Your More, which sit in second and third places respectively in the week so far.

The ITV show’s 2009 runner-up Olly Murs also appeared on the show last weekend to perform his second Epic/Syco single Thinking Of Me, which is showing up in midweek sales flashes as a new entry at four. And XL act Adele’s Make You Feel My Love, which has been a contestants’ favourite on the show this season, is looking like returning to the Top 10 this coming Sunday after boosting its sales on the week by 37.6%. It is currently in seventh place on the midweeks, up from its final chart position of 12 last Sunday.

The long-awaited debut of The Beatles on iTunes last Tuesday prompted a number of Fab Four tracks to show up in last Sunday’s chart and some of these are now progressing. Hey Jude, which led the way last Sunday by returning to the chart at number 40, is up to 34 in the midweeks but has now been overtaken by Let It Be (46-29), while Come Together improves 83-57 and Yesterday 86-72. All four songs were performed by X Factor contestants in a Beatles special last Sunday.


Albums

Take That have taken an early sales lead over JLS in this week’s albums market with Westlife completing an all boy band top three.

The Polydor signings’ Progress, which debuted at number one last Sunday with the biggest first-week sales for more than 13 years, has suffered a 72.1% dip in sales this week but that is still good enough to be around 8,000 units ahead of the new JLS album, according to the OCC.

The 2008 X Factor runners-up’s new Epic album Outta This World is a good 20,000 sales in front of Syco’s new Westlife album Gravity to take second place, while fellow Syco act Susan Boyle is fourth with The Gift and Reprise/Warner Brothers’ My Chemical Romance are currently ranked fifth with their brand new album Danger Days – The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys.

Besides having JLS in silver position presently, Epic has another new entry in seventh place presently with its first Russell Watson album La Voce.

Lower down there should also be new arrivals in this coming Sunday’s chart from Rock-A-Fella/Mercury’s Kanye West, Reprise/Warner’s Josh Groban, Cash Money/Island’s Nicki Minaj and DMGTV’s Daniel O’Donnell.

A bit low for Daniel O'Donnell, perhaps this is due to the demise of Woolworths as i think his fanbase would have shopped there. To be honest, with woolies gone, it would be the perfect time for whsmith to start selling music again as they're are currently no music outlets in small towns.
