4 Rihanna - SOS "TUNE!"
5 Infernal - From Paris to Berlin "G.A.Y."
6 NEW LL Cool J Ft. Jennifer Lopez - Control Myself "Funky Cold Medina"
7 Red Hot Chili Peppers - Dani California "Die Dani, die!"
8 NEW PET SHOP BOYS - I'M WITH STUPID "TUNE!!!"
9 Chicane Ft. Tom Jones - Stoned in Love "Stone that old man, please!"

I think it will go a little higher, maybe 6.

J-Ho? Erm, dunno. I think J-Ho will go a bit higher than 6.

Wow, are they really saying that Daz Sampson - Teenage Life is going to be number one. How embarrassing.

Going to be difficult for a top ten. At the moment, you need 15,000 sales to get in the top ten. I can't see that happening. The last single they released that was near that figure (14,000) was Home and Dry and that reached number 14.

If youf release singles in January, 7,000 sales gets you a top 5!!

In the last few weeks 20-25,000 has got to numbers 4 & 5. I think Pink's Stupid Girls got to #4 with just under 20,000. It's not a particularly strong week (May 8th) so you never know.
Why are you so pessimistic, Undertaker? Do you think 'I'm with stupid' will sell less than 'HAD'?
With physical and download sales I think they'll scrape a top 10. How much did 'Miracles' sell when it entered at 10?

Personally, I think it will struggle to go Top 10. I hope I'm mistaken but having not seen the video anywhere since its late showing on C4, Im thinking maybe a position of 11.

Radio 2 is playing I'm with stupid to death. The promotion of this single is being better than HAD. Even, some "Little Britain" fans can help to get a higher position.

About the album.
One question: do you think "Red Hot Chilli Peppers" can sell more copies of their album STADIUM ARCADIUM in their third week than "Pet Shop Boys" with FUNDAMENTAL in their first week?.

I don't see why they can't hit 15,000 units with this single. particularly with most fans likely to buy more than one format of I'm with stupid, plus downloads as well. I'd be very disappointed if it didn't make the top 10.

Also, is the Daz Sampson song really going to be a big hit? Radio stations aren't playing it and a UK Eurovision entry hasn't dented the top 10 in years.

11,600 units, as did Flamboyant spookily.
