The Vamps' third album 'Night & Day (Night Edition)' scores
Monday, July 24, 2017
by Alan Jones, London

Preceded by three singles which failed to make the Top 20, The Vamps' third album, Night & Day (Night Edition), nevertheless manages to secure the quartet its first No.1. Their 2014 debut, Meet The Vamps, had already given up three of its five Top 10 singles when it debuted at No.2 on sales of 47,160 copies. Follow-up Wake Up was preceded by just one single -

the title track which peaked at No.12 - and had to contend with an elevated Christmas market, debuting and peaking at No.10 (27,839 sales) in 2015. Scandinavian collaborations All Night (with Norwegian DJ Matoma), Middle Of The Night (with Danish DJ Martin Jensen) and Hands (with Swedish DJ Mike Perry and American singer/actress Sabrina Carpenter) have all failed to inflate The Vamps' career tally of six Top 20 singles, peaking at No.24, No.44 and outside the chart, respectively, so the album's title-winning tally of 29,342 sales last week (including 1,662 from sales-equivalent streams) is a tribute to Universal's marketing which likely triggered multiple purchases from hardcore fans, even though the core product contains just eight songs and has a meagre 25 minute playing time. The album - which is expected to be followed by Night & Day (Day Edition) later this year - was helped over the finish line by the fact that two CD/DVD editions, which are widely available for less than £10, add an O2 concert performance from the

band on the DVD and two extra tracks on the CD - while the front cover of the CD-only release is available in variations featuring Conor, James and Tristan individually (there is no edition featuring lead singer Brad on its cover, curiously; he appears on the front of one of the CD./DVD sets). All three editions, in signed versions, are available for just £5.99 from the band's website, where it is also possible to buy heavily discounted versions of both Meet The Vamps, which has sold 301,054 copies to date, and Wake Up (89,391 sales). Relegated to No.2 for only the sixth time in its 20 week chart career, Ed Sheeran's ÷ sells a further 21,305 copies. Modest as ever - he boasts that he tells stories 'better than J.K. Rowling,' on new track Sniper - Grime MC Bugzy Malone scores his third Top 10 album in a little under two years, with King Of The North debuting at No.4 (6,879 sales). Like predecessors Walk With Me (No.8, 5,873 sales, 2015) and Facing Time (No.6, 7,283 sales, 2016), it is a brief set, although with a playing time of 30 minutes for its eight tracks, it is his longest yet. None of his albums has had a physical release but Walk With Me has sold 29,244 copies and Facing Time has sold 41,400 copies to date. London duo Oh Wonder - Anthony West and Josephine Vander Gucht - reached No.26 (2,971 sales) with their eponymous 2015 first album, and have been heaped with critical praise for second album, Ultralife, which opens this week at No.8 (5,806 sales). More than four years after his last album, 2009 X Factor champion Joe McElderry returns to rack up his fifth straight Top 20 album. The 26 year old Geordie debuts at No.10 (5,467 sales) with Saturday Night At The Movies, which includes his spin on familiar fare like (Everything I Do) I Do It For You, Love Is All Around and Daydream Believer. In the Top 5 for the 24th week in a row - its entire chart career thus far - Rag'n'Bone Man's Human spends its ninth week in its favoured chart position of No.3, advancing from No.5. But its sales are down for the fifth week in a row. At 8,002 they are the lowest of its career, although they increase its cumulative tally to an excellent 696,985. Previously debuting and peaking at No.7 (10,149 sales) in 2011, John Denver's The Ultimate Collection has been re-released ahead of the 20th anniversary of his death in October, Helped by the re-screening last Sunday of the documentary John Denver: Country Boy on BBC4, it re-enters the chart at a new peak - No.5. Sales of 6,725 copies raise its career tally to 153,433. The rest of the Top 10: 4:44 (3-6, 6,323 sales) by Jay-Z, Funk Wav Bounces Vol.1 (6-7, 6,197 sales) by Calvin Harris and Glory Days (9-9, 5,533 sales) by Little Mix. Overall album sales are down 1.18% week-on-week at 1,567,714, 10.39% above same week 2016 sales of 1,420,212. Streaming accounted for 738,476 sales – 47.11% of the total. Sales of paid-for albums are down 2.36% week-on-week at 829,238 - their second lowest level since 1994 - and 8.84% below same week 2016 sales of 909,627. Losing out on half of its streaming points by dint of the new chart regulation that downweights songs that have been on the chart for more than nine weeks and have seen their sales fall against the market for three weeks in a row, Despacito still tops the charts for most paid-for sales (25,751) and most streams (6,247,293) but falls to No.2 on the singles chart, ending its second run at the summit on combined notional sales of 46,575 copies. No.1 for nine weeks in total, and three in its latest run, Despacito remains the moral victor of the chart but is replaced at No.1 by DJ Khaled's Wild Thoughts (feat. Rihanna & Bryson Tiller), which itself suffers a downturn in paid-for sales for the third week in a row but ends a three week stint as runner-up to become DJ Khaled's second No.1 just 10 weeks after his first (I'm The One) with sales of 51,308, including 36,084 from sales-equivalent streams. It is the introductory No.1 for rapper Tiller and the ninth No.1 for Rihanna, who last topped the list with Eminem collaboration The Monster in 2013. Rapper French Montana's Unforgettable holds at No.3 (39,142 sales) on its eight week in the Top 10 as his newly released second album Jungle Rules spins off a new hit in the form of A Lie, which features The Weeknd and Max B, and debuts at No.51 (7,392 sales). There is little significant action in the Top 10 with Feels (4-4, 37,645 sales) by Calvin Harris feat. Pharrell, Katy Perry & Big Sean, Mama (5-5, 36,510 sales) by Jonas Blue and Pretty Girl (9-9, 28,244 sales) by Maggie Lindemann stationary, while there are modest rebounds for Strip That Down (7-6 31,133 sales) by Liam Payne feat. Quavo, Your Song (8-7, 29,969 sales) by Rita Ora, Power (10-8, 28,606 sales) by Little Mix and 2U (11-10, 27,536 sales) by David Guetta feat. Justin Bieber, none of which reach new peaks, and all of which suffer declining sales week-on-week. Overall singles sales are down 0.32% week-on-week at 13,106,254, 33.68% above same week 2016 sales of 9,804,408. Streams accounted for 11,806,754 sales, a record 90.08% of the total. Paid-for sales are down 1.03% week-on-week at 1,299,500 - their lowest level since week ending 16 December 2006 (553 weeks ago) when 1,266,194 singles were sold. They are 22.23% below same week 2016 sales of 1,670,896 and below same-week, previous-year sales for the 207th week in a row.  COMPLETE CHARTS
