Grant Hi Grant,my sentiments exacly. If this is anything to go by this would have to be the biggest seller yet surely, just wait until it actually goes on sale. It's got to be a winner i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif cheers, Rodders

Hi Dave, Good to see Hayley up there, I ordered my official copy from Amazon too! All Angels are still in there at no: 25, I wonder how many copies they are up to now? ..... and there's a challenge for you Dave. Steve H

Hi Dave, Thanks for this very encouraging news, by the way. How much of an indicator is this Amazon Chart? Is it usually fairly consistent with the official charts? Incidentally, Steve, All Angels have just leapt up to No 16! Roger

I'm sorry to say that Hayley has slipped back to No 2, with Einaudi back at the top. Don't worry, Hayley, he's only keeping the place warm for you! Roger

Hi Dave, Good to see Hayley up there, I ordered my official copy from Amazon too! All Angels are still in there at no: 25, I wonder how many copies they are up to now? ..... and there's a challenge for you Dave. Steve H Hi Steve, That's easy, it's about 205,000. *cough* ...now back on topic Roger, the Amazon chart is a rough predictor of the main charts but artists whose abums cannot easily be found in supermarkets etc. tend to be flattered by Amazon because, obviously, many people can only get them online. Also, they will be distorted by a TV appearance or radio feature which will push the artist concerned further up the chart for a day or two before they slip back. For example, Einaudi was featured on the Classic FM chart show earlier today. He's only been in the 50s overall though, and by Tuesday afternoon next week, Hayley will be a lot higher than that. Cheers, Dave

Thanks Dave. Yeah, I heard Einaudi on this morning's Chart Show. Indirectly, that's what led me to ask the question. At the moment it is still Einaudi 1; Hayley 2. Pity it isn't football or she woulda won! Roger

Number One now again! (Although mines ordered off HMV!) Back on top form as usual! Hopefully good omens for UK Classical and HIT 40 UK! We want Dr Fox or whoever it is to announce Hayley as NUmber One for at least... shall we say... four weeks! LOL

I think Hayley will now be hard to shift from the top of the Amazon UK classical chart for a few weeks... although the big surge in the main chart (well inside the top 50) may not come until Tuesday, after her GMTV appearance. I just hope they picked the right track for her to sing, Santa Lucia! At Amazon, Treasure is now: no. 1 classical, no. 63 overall, no. 8 prerelease overall no. 2 prerelease of all albums due for release next week, 26 February. Kaiser chiefs are no. 1 and they will not be shifted, no way! So Hayley may well be the 2nd highest New Entry in the main album chart next week and that alone will get her talked about in the music forums and music press. Let us hope it is a top 10 entry too! Of course, Supermarkets love having lots of new entries in their "in house" charts and it is my guess that they will decide to place Hayley as high as they dare - certainly inside the top 10 with one or two maybe top 5. And that would certainly help to boost her sales.... we shall see! Cheers, Dave

Hi Dave, Thanks for the very interesting info from Amazon and your views on next weeks release, you obviously have a deep understanding of this subject and you are normally spot on with your predictions. We are lucky to have such detailed information and reports, keep up the good work, perhaps a daily update until the release if it is not asking too much? I know I find it all very intriguing and I am sure others do too. Thanks again, Steve H
