That could happen, but if that were to be the case then the Phydical cd will be what is keeping it at number one. On iTunes the massive lead it once had is declining rather quickly, I'd imagine that it will be knocked off number one in a few days. When first week sales are high there is often a large drop the following week.

So is there any real competition that could displace it from #1?

Probabably not for the next two weeks, but after that there's a good few songs that could dispatch it from the top spot. On iTunes, it looks like Fireflies will be number one again in the next few days, but it won't be on the offical singles chart next week.

MW REPORT
SINGLES
Everybody Hurts charity effort, and albums invigorated by new releases from Massive Attack and Sade, and Valentine’s Day gift buying.
Released on Simon Cowell/Sony’s Syco imprint and credited to Helping Haiti, Everybody Hurts is a cover of the second of 10 Top 10 hits for R.E.M. (number seven in 1993), with proceeds going to The Disasters Emergency Committee and The Sun’s Helping Haiti appeal.
It sold 453,426 copies – slightly more than the rest of the Top 15 added together - to debut at number one, and achieves the eighth highest weekly sale of the 21st century. Above it: Will Young’s Anything Is Possible/Evergreen (1,108,269, 2002), Gareth Gates’ Unchained Melody (850,535, 2002), Shayne Ward’s That’s My Goal (742,180, 2005), Alexandra Burke’s Hallelujah (576,046, 2008), Leona Lewis’ A Moment Like This (571,253, 2006), HearSay’s Pure And Simple (549,823, 2001) and Rage Against The Machine’s Killing In The Name (502,672, 2009).
Former X Factor champions Lewis and Burke are among the 21 acts contributing vocals to the Help For Haiti single, alongside Rod Stewart, Mariah Carey, Robbie Williams and current X Factor champion Joe McElderry who achieves the unique act of topping the chart three times in different acts (solo, as part of The X Factor Finalists and Helping Haiti) within three months of his chart debut.
Everybody Hurts is neither new to Cowell – whose Syco signings G4 also recorded it – or charity, as a previous recording of it, by PCs Paul Feather and Richard Hopper of West Yorkshire constabulary reached number 80 in 2006, when issued to raise funds for two murdered colleagues.
Helping Haiti’s arrival means that Owl City’s Fireflies fades to number two (59,472 sales) after three weeks in pole position.
Elsewhere in the Top 10, If We Ever Meet Again by Timbaland feat. Katy Perry, and Alicia Keys’ Empire State Of Mind (Part II) continue to strengthen. If We Ever Meet Again holds at number three buts its sales improve 5.3% to 50,028, while Empire State Of Mind (Part II) increases sales for the sixth week in a row, moving 5-4 with sales up 13.6% at 43,487.
Occurring just six weeks after Rage Against The Machine’s record precipitous 2-40 slump with Killing In The Name, the 2-12 slide of Under Pressure (Ice Ice Baby) by Jedward feat. Vanilla Ice (22,056 sales) is gentle by comparison.
It is the 24th single to fall straight from number two to a position outside the Top 10 in the 21st century, a total which includes eight limited edition reissues by Elvis Presley, and two songs apiece from Madonna and McFly.
Helping Haiti aside there are two new entries to the Top 20 this week – both from Glee Cast. The Glee phenomenon looked to be weakening recently but is back with a bang, as the medleys Halo/Walking On Sunshine and It’s My Life/Confessions Part II debut at nine and 14, respectively, on sales of 27,249 and 20,163.
All 16 Glee Cast tracks issued thus far have made the Top 200, with 10 making the Top 75, and five reaching the Top 40 - but the only one to chart higher than these two is the Journey cover Don’t Stop Believin’, which reached number two a fortnight ago, and slips 4-5 this week, with sales of 36,557 lifting its overall tally to 231,376. Journey’s original, meanwhile, exits the Top 10 after an eight week stay, falling 9-11, with 22,472 sales, lifting its digital career tally to 514,558.
Swim star Sharron Davies and Pavel Aubrecht’s Strictly Come Dancing routine to Tracy Chapman’s Fast Car stimulated a 408.4% increase in demand for the track, which catapults into the Top 75 (number 57, 5,074 sales) for the first time since 1988.
Singles sales increased 9.53%% week-on-week to 3,318,733 – a massive 72.60% above same week 2009 sales of 1,922,803.
ALBUMS
With Valentine’s Day clearly a major factor, album sales enjoyed an excellent week. Only four of the Top 40 artist albums suffered sales declines week-on-week – step forward Alvin & The Chipmunks, Corinne Bailey Rae, Ke$ha and Hot Chip – while just three of the Top 20 compilations were in negative territory.
Although neither act managed to add to their tally of number one albums, Massive Attack and Sade made all the running on the album chart in the early part of last week and both can be happy with the final result.
Sade extends her album chart career to more than a quarter of a century, as Soldier Of Love debuts at number four (42,997 sales). That’s significantly higher than last studio album, Lovers Rock, which debuted at number 18 in 2000, with first-week sales of 28,245.
Massive Attack’s last album of new material, the soundtrack album Danny The Dog, debuted and peaked at number 70 in 2004 on first-week sales of just 3,305. New album Heligoland can’t match the number one placings earned by 1998’s Mezzanine or 2003’s 100th Window, but secures the group its fifth Top 10 success with some ease, debuting at number six on sales of 32,763 copies.
Trailing first Sade and Massive Attack, then Andre Rieu, last week’s number one, The Element Of Freedom by Alicia Keys, fought back to retain its artist album chart title, increasing sales week-on-week by 62.2% to 57,312. Looking to become the first classical album to top the chart in the 21st century, Rieu’s Forever Vienna made a valiant try but ends up at number two again, though with sales up 49.3% at 50,335.
Love song compilations occupy six of the Top 10 places in the compilation chart this week, with R&B Lovesongs 2010 at number one for the second week on sales of 35,164 – 136.6% up week-on-week.
Overall album sales, at 2,483,969, increased 22.1% week-on-week, and outstrip same week 2009 sales of 2,398,317 by 3.57%.

Glee Cast Believin' in chart-topping prospects
10:43 | Tuesday February 16, 2010
By Paul Williams
Albums
Glee Cast could follow their flood of entries in the UK singles chart in recent weeks with the likes of Don't Stop Believin' by topping the artist albums chart this coming weekend.
The Epic-issued Glee – The Music – Vol 1, which was down in 68th place on last Sunday’s chart, is presently outselling its nearest rival, J/RCA act Alicia Keys’ The Element Of Freedom, by more than two copies to one, with Interscope/Polydor’s Lady GaGa with The Fame in third spot. However, Glee Cast could face competition for the top spot by the end of the week as tonight's Brit Awards, being screened live on ITV1, is likely to have a big influence on the make-up of the top end of the chart.
Virgin’s Peter Gabriel is looking to return to the Top 10 for the first time since September 1994 with his newly-issued covers album Scratch My Back the fourth top seller of the week so far, while Island’s Owl City is likely to add a Top 10 album with Ocean Eyes to his recent chart-topping singles success with Fireflies.
Ten months after their last studio album, Pet Shop Boys will return to the chart this Sunday thanks to the newly-issued set Pandemonium, capturing them live at The O2 Arena.
===================================
Singles
Over on singles the Syco-issued Helping Haiti charity single Everybody Hurts should have an easy second-week victory at the top of the chart, although its sales have falling sharply from last week when it opened with 453,426 sales. It heads a top five which at this stage of the week is identical to last Sunday’s chart with Island’s Owl City at two, Interscope/Polydor’s If We Ever Meet Again by Timbaland featuring Katy Perry at three, J/RCA’s Alicia Keys with Empire State Of Mind (Part II) at four and Epic’s Glee Cast at five with Don’t Stop Believin’.
Among the new entries to the chart will be Epic act Lemar’s return single The Way Love Goes and A&M/Polydor signings Courtneers with You Overdid It Doll, both of which are among the week’s 20 top sellers at this point of the week.
