Glad to see some big changes in the top 20, and of course that abomination from Lewis Capaldi had to come back.

The Script and Gerry Cinnamon are doing well in the update today.
James Blunt, at the least is getting a Top 100 placement. Had hoped for much higher for Niall Horan than number 46, i hope Top 50 happens this week. Plenty of movemnt in the album chart, Dermot Kennedy starting to show it was a fluke Number 1 album. The Darkness, Simple Minds and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds all experiencing huge falls and may not manage a 2nd week in the Top 100. Belinda Carlisle, remains to be showing staying power and Five Star are in a much better position on week 2 and the vinyl is still to come. This post has been edited by pippa: Oct 14 2019, 06:17 PM |

Unless I’m missing something, it’s a shame to see The Last Summer by R+ miss the top 100.

I'm assuming the Freddie Mercury entries at 8 and 39 will be combined later in the week? I'm not sure: the box set includes the single CD compilation and two of his existing solo albums (plus a DVD and Blu-Ray) so they might have to be treated as separate products. Also yet another posthumous Bowie release lol, can they not let the man rest xx To be fair it is just a vinyl pressing of an album that's been out on other formats for ages. Proportionately I don't think his catalogue has been milked as much as Freddie Mercury's solo career. |

I've had a quick look at the chart rules and it does appear as if the box set will have to be treated as a separate product. |

Wasn’t expecting a 1-14 drop for Dermot! I’m sure it will hang around though and become a solid seller.
Love the Demon Records ‘Gold’ series bringing back all the old faves to the charts - Belinda Carlisle, Five Star and now Ace Of Base |

So why were sales for Beatles 1+ DVD combined with sales of the 1 CD?

To be fair it is just a vinyl pressing of an album that's been out on other formats for ages. Proportionately I don't think his catalogue has been milked as much as Freddie Mercury's solo career. I see - I hadn't looked that up, was just guessing from the fact they have the same title, I remember something similar happening with a Sabaton album earlier in the year and they ended up combined but this might be different if it is a single album vs. a boxset. And you might be right about that but it just feels like there's been some kind of new compilation or re-release of previous rarities every couple of months since his death and it seems like that might just go on indefinitely at this point (they're still finding ways to milk the corpse of Elvis Presley so...) I suppose it's a good thing for avid fans / collectors who have enough money to keep up with everything. Just going off the OCC website there have been at least 15 Bowie releases that have entered the chart since his death less than 4 years ago, maybe more if some of those have just been counted as re-entries. |

Great start for Elbow - should ease past 30k sales no bother!!
Dance Monkey increasing by 5k from last Mondays mids - could do upwards of 75k this week then. |

Will Freddie be combined by Friday?
Dermots drop may look worse than what it is. Ellie Goulding had a similar drop from #1 with her debut and that ended up being a long running type success I think he’ll be fine. The album chart is now my favourite chart to follow. Always something interesting happening there and plenty of change going on. |

Dermot Kennedy was not a fluke #1 but he's not a streaming machine and his album streams are low so there is nothing to cushion his 2nd week fall that's what happens now to all artists that are not streaming-friendly moreover, his album was preceded by just 1 hit, the only albums doing well on streaming are those that are greatest hits or pseudo greatest hits like Rita or Clean Bandit |

Love the Demon Records ‘Gold’ series bringing back all the old faves to the charts - Belinda Carlisle, Five Star and now Ace Of Base Ive bought all of them in the series so far starting last year with Chas & Dave, Daniel Odonnell & Val Doonican. There is one next from Justin Fletcher (Mr Tumble), and then Boney M, Bay City Rollers, M People will follow after each other. |

Dermot is a lot more of a 'streaming artist' than several acts that had #1 albums this year and didn't proceed to fall out of the top 10 in their second week. I'm sure his album will still end up having decent longevity but it is surprising to see it having this big of a drop in its second week. (Of course could get back into the low top 10 by the end of the week though).

Dermot has had a streaming hit but thats just cos his label has spent a lot of €€€ on payola to have to song high on HH for months
but his album has done nothing on Spotify |

I didn't say he did amazingly well on streaming, I said he did better than several other acts who had #1 albums and then did not fall as much as he has this week. It's not even true that his album did nothing on Spotify, there were 3 other songs from it that made the top 200 (and he got his maximum allowed 3 songs in the top 100 on the OCC chart last week so he must be doing something on streaming).
