I'm certainly sure a huge chunk of old people will be buying physical CD instead of pre-ordering 25 on iTunes, and we are assuming this demographic group is helping Adele to stabilize aren't we?

It's almost impossible for her.

Even if she surpassed Problem and did 500K (which I doubt will happen honestly, I think she'll maintain or decrease sales slightly), she'd only get to like 0.5 of Adele.

Ariana's chance to shine would've been the last 3 weeks. She would've surely debuted #1 like Bieber.

Even if she does 'Shake It Off' numbers and streams she will get blocked.

Adele has an over 80% lead.

Coming for 4 million US digital sales soon.

12. Here

Another top 10 confirmed this fall.

588. All I Want for Christmas Is You.

2013 this week it was Top 1200, 2014 it was Top 1000, and now Top 600.

Ariana's first day will obviously be her biggest.
She will get (much) higher than 0.5...

Last year on this very day this was in the 800s.

so you're assuming Hello will do 1M even in its second week???

[UNNAMI]

The only thing that can break Adele staying at #1 is herself, a.k.a. second single.

But I think they won't release it soon. They can use Grammy's to perform her part of "Hello" and full second single.

Can someone counte how many tracking weeks we have from next chart to to grammys?

She would be at exactly 16 weeks at #1 by the time of the Grammys

oh so she would need one more but if she would perform new single she would block herself

[Chemical X.]

I'm sure it will fall, but it's current lead is still over 80% over the #2 and her song comes out tomorrow. The first day or two of Focus' rise will pretty much determine how close it can get to beating Adele, after that she'll either maintain at #2 or fall.

Yeah but we are talking about first day sales of Focus. Not the entire week. I think the first day she will be able to get close to Adeles level, or even pass it. Ariana has massive leads right away, but they drop quick. So it will go down to JBs level quick.
