It's nice that you guys are discussing this, however...  Does it really matter? I doubt Noel cares as much as some of you guys - haha. If I hadn't of read the thread title I wouldn't have even considered the matter. The charts nowadays seem to be so full of rubbish that I couldn't care less what how much of the general public listens to Noel's songs. Frankly the 'general publics' taste in 'good' music is so shocking that I'm not at all surprised to see it's all manufactured. Everyone knows what they like... so if people like Noel wanted chart success he'd deliberately write for it (like 90% of pop artist writers do)... and it'd be shit. However I bet it'd do twice as well as anything he's going to release. Noel pretty much summed it up with:
"If you're Number One in the charts now, it automatically means you must be shit. Bands now go cap-in-hand to the industry and the industry has already decided what it wants for the fucking chart stars. But the charts are all the fucking same. Every single song in the Top 10 is the same shit with a different voice."Of course, this isn't the case with every single song, but a painfully high percentage. Chart success is pretty much meaningless to any respectable band/duo or individual loosely fitting the 'rock' genre. It's all about the critical acclaim, baby  "A #1 worldwide hit or Manchester City Winning the Champions League?" Noel: "#1 worldwide hit" Anyway, if you are not into charts it's pretty simple, actually: don't read this thread  CY will be a #1 album in the UK, unless One Direction will release something. But the question is: How much will it stay in the chart? |

CY will be a #1 album in the UK, unless One Direction will release something I think most musicians would love a worldwide hit, Noel included, but who really cares about places 2-200. He'd have to write something in the vain of 'Wonderwall' or 'Don't Look Back in Anger' to do that again and who wouldn't want to write a song of that standard. |

Wow, that's worse than I expected. Thought it would at least get in the top 40. Both TDOYAM & WAL went top 20... TDOYAM & WAL weren't instant grats. One instant grat is allowed to count towards the singles chart, so one of the new singles is comparable to the old ones, most likely ITHOTM, That's presuming they didn't hold that honour back for Riverman... |

Dying of the Light is this albums only hope for a hit i think unless he over produced it like if i had a gun. That's a tad early to proclaim. A lot of people had similar thoughts about "If I Had A Gun" and it ended up being Noel's worst charting single at #95. I think a catchy rocker will out do a 5 minute ballad in this musical climate. |

#75 in the charts but #1239482523452752742384723572357234592356346553467367 in our hearts. There, fixed  Not surprised that it doesn't chart. Noel is alienating his fan base and trying to attract people with a U2/coldplay esque song, but people want U2 and Coldplay, not a copy of that. Maybe it'll chart better once the song is widespread, like What a Life took time to kick off, but then again WAL was a tune. |

Charts are shit, and we all know that. For rock artist it's very hard because their most important thing is the album. Pop artists most important things are singles, they sold more singles than albums (like Taylor Swift) indeed.
Look at the poor Johnny Marr. He's great but 0 top 100 singles. Black Keys, 0 top 50 singles in UK. Kasabian 0 top 20 singles since 2009. Muse 1 top 20 single since 2010, Paul weller 0 top 20 singles since 2008 etc.
Noel did quite well with his singles. But a #75 is very bad for the second single.

Yeah, because a lot of Noel-esque songs like IIHAG charted really high in the past...  |

Sales of 5,065 in the UK last week. Not bad considering anyone that preordered the album to get the track doesnt count as a single sale.

In the UK 100 Spotify/streaming streams (at least 30 seconds) = 1 copy. So that's good |
