U.K. MIDWEEKS: KILLERS AIM FOR #1

12/11/23

The Killers’ Rebel Diamonds (EMI) is set to debut at #1 on the U.K.’s Official Albums Chart. Over on singles, Sam Ryder is challenging Wham! for the top spot.

Rebel Diamonds is outselling its closest competition— Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday 2 (Island)—by more than 2:1 while Tate McRae’s Think Later (Ministry of Sound) is less than 100 chart sales behind Minaj at #3.

Kylie Minogue’s Extension (The Extended Remixes) (BMG) is on track to debut at #8. Porcupine Tree could secure their second Top 10 this year with live LP Closure/Continuation.Live (Sony) at #9.

On the U.K.’s Official Singles midweeks, Ryder’s “You’re Christmas To Me” (East West/Rhino) is less than 800 sales away from knocking “Last Christmas” (Epic) from the top spot.

Ryder’s Amazon Music Original is expected to rise to #2 on Friday but the Top 3 is not yet a done deal—“Fairytale of New York” (Rhino) by The Pogues f/Kirsty MacCall isn’t fair behind at #3.

Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” (Columbia) is #4.

Another Amazon Music Original to keep an eye on is Jorja Smith’s cover of “Stay Another Day” (FAMM), which is up 18 midweek to #8.
