Will Joe be one of the top 10 biggest sellers of 2009?

Given that 2009 has had the biggest sales for singles in years and the rather dissapointing sales for Joe. Do you think he will make top 10?

Last year Alexandra sold almost 900,000 copies in 2008 and the charity single sold 750,000 copies - considerably less than this year.

In 2007, Leon Jackson sold 400,000 copies and managed to have the 4th biggest seller of the year.

I predict Joe will sell roughly 400,000 copies this week - making him the 24th biggest seller and perhaps an extra 100,000 before the year's out leaving him the 9th biggest seller of the year.

On a different note, this year's X Factor charity single has sold 400,000 less copies than last year.

What's happening? Are we bored of the X Factor or (in my opinion) the talent on the show this year was useless compared to last year.

He'll probably just do it, yes.

Current top 10 of the year (thanks to buzzjack)

1 1 Lady Gaga Poker face 856865
2 2 Black Eyed Peas I gotta feeling 790130
3 3 Lady Gaga feat Colby O'Donis Just dance 751670
4 4 Cheryl Cole Fight for this love 675885
5 5 La Roux In for the kill 654975
6 6 Black Eyed Peas Boom boom pow 599375
7 7 Tinchy Stryder & N Dubz Number 1 534800
8 8 Alexandre Burke & Flo Rida Bad boys 514070
9 9 David Guetta feat Akon Sexy chick 491735
10 10 Kings of Leon Use somebody 482910

He's on course for around 400,000 or so this week, I expect probably around 200,000 next week so yes.

Unfortunately, yes. I don't think he will sell enough to knock GaGa off the top, which is a relief because there is no comparison between Poker Face and that trash.

let's hope so, for the sake of anyone who actually appreciates music. it's bad enough Cheryl Cole being where she is.

Cheryl's FFTL deserves to be #2 IMO.

Sadly, there are enough chavs, OAPs, Sun readers and people of low enough IQ to probably give 'Mr Nice but dim' a place in the Top 10 with all the other dross.

I don't know about #2, I think it deserves about #102...
