As a portuguese fan this is astonishing to watch.

Amazing fan work you guys are pulling out here, would be lovely to see them in that number 1 spot. If they can hold the lead through tonight and until tomorrow morning the number 1 would be very much close to being a reality. Checked out the Steps forum, they don't seem very confident, would be really amazing to see them at number 1. Was too young to remember it in 2000.

Here's hoping.

After the signed LP, picture disc, deluxe cd and cassette, today I ordered the LP+7” from Juno. $40 delivered to the US, which is much better than other places. I don’t give the slightest of fucks about number 1s and all that, but since it does mean something to the band, I guess I’ll do my part.

If they’re serious about this why are they not just doing the standard CD with exclusive tracks? They must have some knocking around? Could be the Japanese tracks, Nicky tracks

Just ordered the standard CD and T-Shirt, Polaroid bundle from the official site for £18

Must admit I really want them to get to number one!

I like to think it was my extra download purchase earlier that did it

Must admit, I find this download malarkey quite odd. I mean if you buy a cd or vinyl, they don't insist you play it for it to count as a sale.

But hey, if it has to be downloaded to count, then I'll get on with it

Haha! Yeah, I tend to post once every few years, not like the old days. I’m still very much into the Manics though, I was at victorious and Halifax and have tickets for Manchester and Portsmouth. Still hoping for drug drug druggy on the tour seeing as they rehearsed it last year, but I suspect the chance of rare GATS stuff is slim now.

If they upload a video of James playing Patrick Bateman in full I’ll buy 100 copies of the album.

Just seen on Facebook a great idea. Order off Amazon to a locker. Don’t collect. You get a refund but I’d imagine the purchase count.

Can I place a £1000 worth of orders and then return them tomorrow?

I don’t see why not! Maybe not worth a £1,000 risk mind.

Using the Amazon locker option takes the hassle away. You don’t have to send them back, just don’t bother collecting them and it automatically happens.

I was just thinking hypothetically but that’s what credit cards are for! Maybe not 1k but I love your idea

Just checked the Amazon site and this is legit. If you don’t collect the parcel from the locker within 3 days they take it back and refund you
