UK Chart Update For Week Ending April 6th

06 Apr '08


POSTED BY	Danny

“Break The Ice” climbs 11 places to #25 (based on digital downloads) while “Piece Of Me” falls 6 places this week in the official UK singles chart. The “Break The Ice” single is still set for release on April 14th.

In the official album chart, “Blackout” is down 4 places to #56.

Great to hear Britney is doing well in the UK Singles Chart. I am pleased with run ‘Piece Of Me’ has had, it has done very well, but i still think she was robbed off a #1.
Also ‘Break The Ice’ is really hotting up and has already spent 3 weeks in the Official UK Top 40, based on Download Sales alone. I can’t wait for the physical release on 14th April, it is definitely a top 5 smash, but i’m hoping it can manage the top spot.

One thing that is bothering me is the fact that ‘Blackout’ is not in the Top 40 album chart, it definitely deserves to be, maybe with ‘Break The Ice’ climbing the charts it may folow suit, very soon. I don’t think people realise that they are missing out on Poptastic treat.

Nice to see Break The Ice is doing good. I love that video. Should sky rocket after the actual release of the single. And of course she was robbed out of #1. Shows how dumb the mainstream public is. But why dwell on the past when we can celebrate the future.

She always seems to do better in the UK. Kinda gives you a clue about American music fans compared to UK ones.

I am happy with the success of the song overseas. It’s also doing well in Canada, I think it’s currently at 20 or 25 on the offical chart. I think that she has had too much bad press in the U.S so her success on the charts will be limited withinthe country. Also, the video is not appealing to the main stream audience and thus can’t help the song on the charts.

Great news for the US also. BTI is taking off, its at its highest jump in weeks at +326 and is currently number 29 on CHR/Pop. It is now playing at 129 stations in the US. Finally, stations are adding it so it will pick up even more. Now is the best time to request like crazy! BTI is far from over….

Break the Ice will do well in the UK, Britney has a solid fanbase here, most of the US fans are to fickle. Clifton, i wish you would stop calling mainstream fans dumb, Britney is a mainstream artist so, effectively, you’re calling all britney fans dumb. Don’t be a hypocrit!!
