Adele whines through all her songs..irritates. Can't stand her

Bowie might just get number 1 based on his fans loyalty but he will lose it fast. Shame! I am a realistic Bowie fan since the seventies.
S

Bowie album is brilliant and deserves to be No.1 next week. That's what new, original music sounds like!
G

He deserves the No. 1 this week.

Tried to update total weeks in Top 40 as Adele's 19 and 21 are both there, but once again i get the mysterious "Hold on-waiting to be approved by OCC" message.

I holmes on the graham norton show pal she was totally bigheaded and so full of herself, she thinks she is it,
I Holmes
I disagree. I think she's the most humble down to earth person and her attitude has only contributed to her success. Each to their own opinion, though.
M
maidenfan
hope adele gets knocked off next week by david bowie at least he isn't arrogant and not so full of himself
I Holmes
Adele is neither arrogant or full of herself. But I think Bowie will get no.1 next week.
Leslie Lees
but she is
Amy-Leigh Hickman
Bowie's last album opened with around 94,000 back in 2013 whereas Adele is currently selling no more than 50,000 a week (this is mostly down to post-Christmas album sales declines all around). As much as album sales have generally been continuing to fall overall since Bowie's last album, he's most likely to get it. I'd guess it'll shift around 60-70k in the opening week, but that's based on pure estimation based on nothing but the above.
I Holmes
I'm sure Adele would be devastated by your opinion.
