The Create a Label Chart: Week Seven
Nearly two months into the charting year, competition seems to have died down a little from the first couple of weeks. Artists such as Dai Burger, Junglepussy, Ariana Grande and Charli XCX have joined the race, with Charli proving she's a force to be reckoned with with last week's chart domination.
The Hits
1. Eric Saade & Taylor Swift - "I Swear"
500,000 copies sold
Week: 1
Last Week: x
Peak Position: #1
Another #1 to Eric Saade's discography, his collaboration with Taylor Swift proved to be popular with the general public.
2. Junglepussy & Charli XCX - "Sorry"
480,000 copies sold
Week: 2
Last Week: #4
Peak Position: #2
After only charting at #4 last week, "Sorry" rose up to the #2 spot thanks to promotion from both Junglepussy and Charli XCX.
3. Charli XCX - "Asylum"
440,000 copies sold
Week: 1
Last Week: x
Peak Position: #3
Despite last week's roaring success with absolute chart domination (Along with her album selling well over a million copies), Charli's highest-charting song only managed to go to #3 this week. However, several of her songs, like last week, are charting this week again.
4. Dai Burger - "High Dolla Bitch (Remix) [feat. Junglepussy]"
310,000 copies sold
Week: 1
Last Week: x
Peak Position: #4
5. Charli XCX - "XCX"
300,000 copies sold
Week: 4
Last Week: #6
Peak Position: #3
Despite the longevity of a month, and contributing to Charli's mass success, absolutely no one can tell you what this song is about, because we're really not sure.
6. George G - "Teenage Rebel/Bring the Noise"
280,000 copies sold
Week: 3
Last Week: x
Peak Position: #6
George leaves no stone unturned about his chaotic life here. Watch out, because he's coming.
7. George G - "No Last Name"
280,000 copies sold
Week: 4
Last Week: x
Peak Position: #7
Despite being a huge celebrity, no one knows his name. We guess he covers that much with this song, even though, like "XCX", we're still confused on the meaning behind it.
8. Charli XCX - "Dancing Darkness (feat. Natalia Kills)"
220,000 copies sold
Week: 3
Last Week: #1
Peak Position: #1
A massive, 7-spot fall from last week's #1, "Dancing Darkness" also dropped 520,000 copies from the previous week. What kinda irrelevant one-hit WONDER?!
9. M.I.A. - "Bad Girls"
200,000 copies sold
Week: Old
Last Week: x
Peak Position: It charted?
10. Ariana Grande - "Nocturnal Kisses"

Bringing an end to the total chaos this week, it almost seems empty... Due to a lack of competition. Hopefully, things could be amped up this upcoming week, resulting in higher sales, higher stakes and more devastating flops... Stay tuned!
