[andyuk]

on friday U2 are heading for no1 in the UK but Saturdays sales can can everything! U2 are only 200 copies ahead of elvis so come on! go and buy 3 more copies on Saturday!!!! we can do this but need all the UK people on this ssite to help!

Just think first ever time U2 will have 2 number 1 singles from one album co come on!

Give the money to charity instead

 

[Mullen4Prez]

Bono Needs the money

 

[popacrobat]

does it count if i buy an import?

 

[andyuk]

try it it may well do!

 

[neutral]

So does Larry, he needs a new shirt for tour.

 

[rjhbonovox]

Bono Needs the money

Yep he sure does, he's only worth £150 million, the poor bas#ard!

 

[Yahweh]

Looking at the positive side at least U2 have a chance to be #1!

 

[super fly guy]

It would be a big victory if U2 beat elvis to number 1. Hopefully the album sales pick up aswell.

 

[KUEFC09U2]

it will make number 1 i have 90% confidence in the UK publin to make the correct choice. Unlike the USA who have sadly let the album slip to number 28 joke

So does Larry, he needs a new shirt for tour.

No he doesn't. Larry doesn't need to wear any shirt at all.

 

[POP-ROMANCER]

Unlike the USA who have sadly let the album slip to number 28 joke

I thought to number 32 in USA, outside top 30.

It's because we have so many kids into this submusic rap and pop crap over here...

LONG LIVE ROCK AND ROLL!

Is there any online site that tracks sales in UK - like Hits does for the US?

 

[Lucy3011]

Just curious: have any of the Elvis re-releases not made it to #1 yet?

 

[Party Boy]

How many Elvis re-issues are there going to be?

 

[1stepcloser]

Elvis got beaten to number one a couple of weeks ago by Eminem. i like Elvis but i was glad Eminem beat him cos im getting really annoyed now at bloody Elvis going to number one every week when he's been dead for the last 25+ years

 

[burns]

i think there are 18 re releases on total. These are the songs that have gone no1 before.

i don't think i have heard of a chart battle like this in a while

on cd:uk they didn't actually announce thier no1 this week, they just played sometimes, it seems like they don't even know who is at no1, i'll have to check out radio1 tommorow

 

[-Macphisto-UK]

All of Evlise's UK number 1's are being re -released bac kto back. I am not sure of the exact figure think it's about 18.

This is the 5th or 6th conseuctive release as far as I can remember. 2 have not gone to number 1, one was last week when he was beaten by Eminem and one was 3 weeks ago but I can't remember the artist that beat him other that she was a new female artist.

The pattern has been that the sales of Elvis have dropped of towards the end of the week and to be honest the general public probably wouldn't have known a new U2 single was being released until wednesday of this week due to lack of promotion, although the juggernaut promotion vehicle as been in full flow for the last 2 or 3 days so I will listen excitedly tomorrow in the hope that they ahve made it to number 1. If you listen to radio 1 which can be found at www.bbc.co.uk/radio between 6.30 and 7.00 uk time you can listen to find out if they made it.

 

[RademR]

if I buy ten copies and then return 9 of them in a week, that still goes to the figures doesnt it?

 

[beau2ifulday]

It would be a big victory if U2 beat elvis to number 1. Hopefully the album sales pick up aswell.

I'm sure Larry would be thrilled to beat out his idol to number one.
