Good news for Chipmunk, Saturdays, Tinchy
Published Tuesday, Oct 6 2009, 11:25 BST | By Nick Levine | 22 comments
Right, it's half eleven on Tuesday on a Saturdays release week, so we'd better get down to business.
Chipmunk's on course to score his first number one with 'Oopsy Daisy'.
Una and co are right behind with 'Forever Is Over', but they're currently being outsold by more than two to one.
Tinchy Stryder's 'You're Not Alone' and Jordin Sparks's 'SOS' have both cracked the top 15.
The Veronicas' '4ever' has neither risen nor fallen since Sunday.
And Whitney? Well, 'Million Dollar Bill' is currently between the 25 and 30 posts.
Over on the albums chart, Barbra Streisand's climbed to the top spot ahead of Madonna and Paramore. The Backstreet Boys are inside the top 30.
So, are we surprised about who's heading for number one? Just use the space below to leave your comments.

Wow, I never thought Chipmunk would get a #1! I love Oopsy Daisy though, I'm glad at how well it's doing. Forever Is Over is a very weak choice for The Saturdays lead single off their new album. I'm a big Sats fan but if I'm honest, it's rubbish. I did think it would go Top 10, but I didn't think it would go #1 and I'm glad it's not. I agree with what others have said - it would be nice to see the girls get a #1 but there are far better songs than Forever Is Over.

It looks like i'm right that The Saturdays are number one in the iTunes chart - but Chipmunk, another Urban protege is set to knock Taio Cruz off the top spot. The week after that is Alexandra Burke's 'Bad Boy' heading for number one.

Looks like Chipmunk is definately No.1 now. The predictions seem correct in my eyes. As for Saturdays, people have changed heart and they are doing better than expected really. Whitney may do better

It would be nice to have The Saturdays at no. 1 but their song is rubbish. Maybe the next single will be better.

I wouldn't be surprised if The Saturdays drop quite a bit between now and Sunday. Once the fans have gone out a brought it, sales are likely to drop off, though they'll probably still get top 5 since there's not much competition this week. Bit of a shame since I would like to see the girls (finally!) get a No.1, but I think 'Forever Is Over' is a poor choice of lead single for what was likely their best chance at topping the charts, getting it out there before the album is released and their fans already have all their album tracks.

Awwwwww. Really wanted the Sats to get their first number 1! and theres no chance of it climbing from 2 to 1 next week because of shitty alexandra burkes single which is most probably guna shoot to number 1! even though its a realllllly rubbish song. :/ i really hope the sats can climb! and i hope robbie williams comeback is more appealing to the public than alexandra BURKE!

I so want The Saturdays to get a no.1 though I would be quite surprised if 'Forever is Over' is the song to do it tbh

at the start of the week i didn't expect Chipmunk to be heading for no.1. i'm also a bit surprised at The Saturdays being so close, for me their new song is a disappointment. anyway, next week should be the most interesting of the year! not just because of the obvious singles, but with albums from Shakira, The Saturdays, Chipmunk and Taio Cruz. they won't all be up there challenging for the top spot but i'm interested to see how they all do, and i'm looking forward to buying 2 or 3 of them too!
