Ok, let's play the chart prediction game. Where is Only Human going to chart considering the competition and how much is this going to sell considering the declining sales in the album market?

Her competition is:

- Pink Floyd (The Guardian published an article saying their album had +100k pre-orders and Amazon UK reported it's the most pre-ordered album ever in Amazon UK.)

- Foo Fighters (they usually sell +100k in the UK)

- Queen (GH, they have a primetime special show on ITV this Tuesday, today's X Factor theme is Queen and Michael Jackson)

- Sam Smith (He's performing on X Factor tomorrow)

- Ed Sheeran (He's like Adele when it comes to selling albums this year, #1 album this week beating Calvin Harris in Motion's release week).

So yes, I can see her charting at #5 or #6 and selling similar to Calvin Harris this week, around 30k.

Oh God...
I think she'll be #5
Hopefully she'll do more than 30k though...

It has to be a error, maybe its the clean version?

I think she'll debut at #5.

She would be #1 if she released in the first half of the year, but there's lots of album competition leading up to Christmas which will hinder her position.

it deserves better than #5

[Bunifah]

Not feeling the album. Only 4 good songs and CSL and IDC are the only singles REALLY

I kinda hope she 'flops' so that she puts more effort in promoting her music
People are making it too easy for her to just drop a song and it goes to #1, the quality is missing

[igor]

I think she'll debut at #3 in the UK, Foo Fighters and Pink Floyd are releasing the same day, they should be #1 and #2.

[TheDjole]

I think she'll be top 5 for sure.

[Glory And Gore]

I actually really like Goodbye Means Hello

[Supervillain]

Live Life Now slaying me rn. Wow.

[NumbFentyStan]

Honestly the whole album is great! I like every single song!
I think i still like AML more (it just hits you so hard), but it's definitely better than 3W and MLR!
And it's really coheisive! I think it's her best album lyrically too!

[TheDjole]

I don't think her fans should be mad at the album not debuting at #1 (if it doesn't happen), I think you would've all signed for 2 #1 singles and a record-breaker and a top 5 album before the era started.

I Just ordered my physical copy!

Because she's up against Pink Floyd (probably the fastest selling album of the year or really close to Ed Sheeran first week album sales) and Foo Fighters who usually open with 6 figures sales.

They're going to be #1 and #2 for sure, the rest will depend on how much effect the Queen special has and at how amazing Sam Smith performs tomorrow.

Cheryl will be no different to the likes of 1) Ella Henderson ('only' 43k)... for a first album it's a bit low considering the buzz and that it follows a big hit like Ghost. 2) Calvin Harris, the 'golden boy' won't sell more than 35k this week and he'll chart at #2 after Ed Sheeran. 3) Jessie J (16k).

We will see if she'll do an Ella, a Calvin or a Jessie...

Yeah, Under The Sun's last figure was nearly 200k.
