Good to see LOST in the last one and defo Rob must be on Anniversary edition, so Rock DJ is a good choice.

Robbie Williams not only celebrated 25 years since his debut album this year, he also broke the Official Charts record when his latest, XXV, took his total of solo chart-toppers to 14 Number 1 albums, beating Elvis Presley’s 13 - becoming the solo artist with the most Number 1 albums EVER in the UK - and placing him now only behind The Beatles who’ve had 15.

Retro Irish Top Ten 1998: Robbie Williams jets to number one with a James Bond fantasy



Ireland’s Top 10 Singles, October 1, 1998

1 Millennium Robbie Williams

2 Rollercoaster B*witched

3 I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing Aerosmith

4 No Matter What Boyzone

5 One For Sorrow Steps

6 I Want You Back Melanie B featuring Missy Elliott

7 Crush Jennifer Paige

8 You’re My Heart You’re My Soul Modern Talking

9 Music Sounds Better With You Stardust

10 Life Des’ree

Robbie Williams was top of the Irish singles chart twenty-five years ago this week.

His “Millennium”, the first track from second studio album “I’ve Been Expecting You”, was released more than two years before the actual millennium year 2000, but became one of the big anthems celebrating the event, its big “stars directing our fate” chorus striking a chord. “Millennium” was Williams’ first number one single in either the UK or Ireland. “Angels”, his best-selling and possibly best-loved single - released the previous year - had peaked at No. 2 in Ireland and only reached No. 4 in the UK.

Williams had most of the lyrics for “Millennium” written by the time his producer (and former World Party member) Guy Chambers came up with the song title.
Explaining the name to Songwriting Magazine in 2019, Chambers said, “There was a lot of talk about the millennium back then, it’s a bit like the ‘Brexit’ word now... not that I’d write a song called ‘Brexit.’ I just thought it was an interesting word.”

007 fan Williams wanted the song to have a James Bond feel and, from the start, Chambers decided he would sample John Barry’s musical arrangement of “You Only Live Twice” (by Nancy Sinatra), featuring what he considered an “iconic intro” that “grabs you straight away”. However, when record label Chrysalis discovered that a new recording would cost only one tenth of the licensing fee that would be required to sample “You Only Live Twice”, they asked that it be recreated in the studio, so an orchestra comprising of a 26-piece string section, four French horn players, and a harpist was brought in to record it.

The tongue-in-cheek video for the song - featuring Robbie Williams parodying James Bond in some very loose recreations of famous scenes from the movies - won the award for British Video Of The Year at the 1999 Brits. “Millennium” was part of an incredible singles chart run for the former Take That member whose solo career has made him one of the biggest recording artists of all time. Between 1996 and 2013 he had 29 top-ten hits in the UK, including seven number ones.

Just before “Millennium” reached the top of the charts, Robbie Williams supported The Verve in a memorable performance at Slane Castle.

The following year he would return to Ireland to play a sold-out headliner before 80,000 fans at the same venue.

The Rolling Stones equal The Beatles, Robbie Williams and Bruce Springsteen to claim 11 UK Number 1 studio albums

The Rolling Stones outsell the rest of the Top 5 to secure their landmark 14th Official Number 1 album with Hackney Diamonds this week.

Racking up 72,200 chart units in its first week, Hackney Diamonds enjoys the third biggest week of sales for an album of 2023 so far, behind Lewis Capaldi’s Broken by Desire to be Heavenly Sent, and Ed Sheeran’s -.

The group’s first collection of new material in 18 years, and first following the death of late drummer Charlie Watts in 2021, Hackney Diamonds’ success means Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood achieve a huge UK chart feat.

With 11 different studio albums hitting the top spot, The Rolling Stones now draw level as the act with the most studio albums to reach Number 1 on the UK’s Official Albums Chart, joining The Beatles, Robbie Williams, and Bruce Springsteen who also have 11 each.

When taking into account other collections including greatest hits albums, reissues and live albums, The Rolling Stones now stand alongside Robbie Williams with 14 Number 1 albums, and just behind The Beatles with 16. See all the acts with the most Number 1 albums in the UK.

Hackney Diamonds also tops this week’s Official Vinyl Albums Chart, shifting the most copies on the format over the past seven days.

blink-182 land a Number 2 debut with their ninth studio album ONE MORE TIME…. It becomes the highest-charting record to date for the Californian rock outfit’s best-known line-up of Tom DeLonge, Travis Barker and Mark Hoppus. Prior to this, this incarnation of the group peaked at Number 4 on the Official Albums Chart with 2001 work Take Off Your Pants and Jacket.

In 2016, blink-182 scored a Number 1 album with California, released with DeLonge’s replacement Matt Skiba, who was active with the group between 2015-2022.

It’s a fifth Top 10 album for Bombay Bicycle Club as My Big Day enters this week’s chart (3). Previously, the London-formed four-piece achieved Top 10 records with 2010’s Flaws (8), 2011’s A Different Kind of Fix (6), 2014 chart-topper So Long, See You Tomorrow and 2020 release Everything Else Has Gone Wrong (4).

My Big Day also tops this week’s Official Record Store Chart, proving the most-purchased album of the week in the UK’s independent record shops.

Pet Shop Boys earn a 25th Top 40 record with Relentless (25). Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe’s six-track album was originally released as part of their fifth studio album, 1993’s Very, gaining somewhat of a cult classic status in the years since. The reissue also lands inside the Official Vinyl Albums Chart Top 10 (7).

Spotify pay an average of $ 0.003 - $ 0.005 per stream , not a lot is it, you would not want to be depending on it to make a living , no wonder artists like their live tours ..

70% to the artist & 30% to Spotify
