Oasis and Coldplay battle for top of Amazon pre-order chart

Oasis and Coldplay are vying for top spot on Amazon's pre-order chart ahead of their May and June album releases, with Oasis currently ahead.

CMU fondly remembers the days when it was all about the battle between Oasis and Blur. But now Oasis are slugging it out against

Coldplay for poll position at top of the Amazon chart, even though their albums are not yet released.

Oasis album 'Don't Believe The Truth' and Coldplay LP 'X+Y' are both available to pre-order now at Amazon.co.uk prior to respective releases in May and June, and the online retailer has reported that since they became available three weeks ago they have both shot right to the top of the Amazon hot 100 pre-order chart.

Oasis are currently number one, but that may change. Amazon's **Helen

Marquis** told CMU "Although Oasis seem to be currently beating the competition, with two months to go before release I would say to Coldplay fans Don't Panic. There's plenty time to order the album so Don't Look Back in Anger just yet!" Wacka

Wacka.
