NOTES:

• Chart runs up to and including the w/e 5th May 2001 are supplied by Hit Music. The chart was extended from a Top 75/100 to a Top 200 from the w/e 19th November 1994.
• From w/e 12th May 2001 up to and including the w/e 16th April 2005, Top 200 chart runs are supplied by the Official Charts Company, with the Top 75 listing the best selling singles in order and the #76-200 section featuring 'compressed positions': "A single which, in the normal course of events, would appear between positions 76 and 200 of the combined Singles Chart is excluded if its sales have fallen for two or more consecutive weeks AND have fallen by more than 20% in the past week. Once excluded in this way, a record will only re-appear in the chart if its sales increase. Records excluded by this rule are shown on the printed chart report with their sales index and asterisks (***) in place of a chart position."
• W/E 23rd April 2005: the 'compressed' rule was scrapped. Digital downloads were now included if a song was available physically and the chart was extended to a Top 250.
• W/E 18th March 2006: the chart was reduced to a Top 200 again and songs could chart on downloads only for 1 week prior to a physical release.
• W/E 13th January 2007: all songs were allowed to chart if available to download, regardless of physicals.
• W/E 12th July 2014: streaming was introduced to the chart.
• W/E 16th July 2015: the chart began to compile data from Friday to Thursday instead of Sunday to Saturday.
• W/E 13th July 2017: the chart was reduced to a Top 100.

This is such an amazing thread - thanks Liam!!!

What on earth made Angel re-chart in 95 /96?

You're very welcome! The only reason I can think of as to why Angel re-entered was because of Something to Remember. It wasn't on the album, but it could have been performed or something?

EDIT: Sorry, it was a typo - it should be 1985/6 not 1995/6!

Thanks for doing this, I have a lot of stuff I could add to this if you like ?
Like weekly sales from MW, End Of Year charts etc. I need to dig them out tho.
Would you be interested in added digital charts ? I'm not saying you should you don't have too. It's just an idea.

Anyway here's some info for you:

Thanks SweetCandy! Perhaps if I added the highest certification for each song underneath it's chart run, I could add download and airplay charts. And any sales info you find, please feel free to post! I'll add her positions on the Best Selling Act of Each Year to the "totals" post, too.

Posted by: SweetCandy 29th April 2012, 12:55 PM

Ok, I'll post information up and you can use what ever you want.
By the way what's the sales to get certificates on the singles charts in the 80's and now ?.

Posted by: liamk97 29th April 2012, 12:58 PM

Before 1989, 250,000 was Silver, 500,000 was Gold, and 1,000,000 was Platinum. Now, it's 200,000 for Silver, 400,000 for Gold, and 600,000 for Platinum.

Posted by: SweetCandy 4th May 2012, 03:41 PM

Not too bad thanks for that.

Hopefully Masterpiece will re-enter when the W/E soundtrack is released!

Posted by: SweetCandy 4th May 2012, 03:50 PM

The soundtrack is already out and you can't download Masterpiece separately from the album. The only way you can buying it seperately is buying from the MDNA album.

But I guess you mean when the DVD is released.

Radio 1 are counting down the top 150 bestselling singles of the millennium!

Masterpiece is the 60th most played song of the year in the UK so far!.

Oops! Forgot that the soundtrack was already out! But I guess it could re-enter when the DVD is released.

Posted by: SweetCandy 4th May 2012, 04:57 PM

I guess only fans will buy the DVD but hopefully someone people will have open minds.

Posted by: liamk97 4th May 2012, 04:59 PM

It seems more and more obvious to choose Masterpiece as the third single, and I'm sure it would get atleast a Top 40 position - if it was released properly!

Posted by: SweetCandy 4th May 2012, 05:07 PM

We can barely get a 2nd single here so, I really don't think a 3rd single will surface here even Masterpiece all M's camp are worried about is the tour but they knew when the album was out and the start of the tour.

No surprise but MDNA doesn't appear on the mid week top 40.

Posted by: liamk97 9th May 2012, 04:59 PM

Shame that in a year or two, Hung Up will have fallen out of the Top 150! Should be so much higher, but of course, it fell into the low sales of 2005!

Unless MDNA picks up due to Girl Gone Wild, I can see it spending two more weeks in the Top 75, probably going 38-55-74 or something like that.

Posted by: vibe 20th May 2012, 06:23 PM

I'm surprised it even did that

Posted by: SweetCandy 20th May 2012, 06:32 PM

I was just thinking Masterpiece went 5 places higher and that was on download only.

Posted by: liamk97 20th May 2012, 06:47 PM

I think a lot of people prefer Masterpiece to Girl Gone Wild, and Masterpiece has had radio airplay and promotion from W/E. There's still a few more release formats of Girl Gone Wild, so maybe it could get higher?

Posted by: SweetCandy 20th May 2012, 08:16 PM

I seriously doubt it. Only the physical maxi cd is left to be released and that won't be out here till June 12th lol.

Posted by: SweetCandy 21st May 2012, 10:06 AM

From MW:
Madonna's Girl Gone Wild sold 1,221 copies on CD and a further 699 on 12-inch (topping the 12-inch chart) - but despite this, and the fact the track is being used extensively on TV to promote Madonna's new perfume Truth Or Dare, Girl Gone Wild makes a woeful number 73 debut on the Top 75, with 3,557 sales. It is the third song from Madonna's current album MDNA to chart - and none has performed well. First single Gimme All Your Lovin' featured M.I.A. and Nicki Minaj but still stalled at number 37 in February, while Masterpiece crawled to number 68 in April despite winning a Golden Globe award and getting huge airplay support from Radio 2. MDNA is barely affected by the release of Girl Gone Wild, climbing 39-36, while recording its lowest weekly sales tally of 3,506. After eight weeks on release , MDNA has finally topped the 100,000 sales mark, with 103,381 sales to date. Aside from the three songs mentioned above.

Posted by: SweetCandy 23rd May 2012, 09:01 AM

I'm not expecting MDNA to be top 40 this week but let's see on the album chart later today. I guess it depends how low sales are in general in the UK. I'd love to see The Complete Studio Albums 1983 - 2008 make a return in the top 200 as HMV are selling it for just £15, I don't know if they are just selling it as that price online or in store as well. Does anybody know ?.

No surprises, MDNA isn't Top 40 on todays update:

The Official Singles Charts' biggest selling artists of all time revealed!
04/06/2012

By Lauren Kreisler

The Official Charts Company today unveils the Diamond Dozen – the 12 artists who have sold more than 10m singles in the history of the UK ‘s Official Singles Chart.

This definitive list of chart royalty is published to coincide with the Diamond Jubilee of both Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the UK’s Official Singles Chart - both celebrating 60 glorious years of heritage in 2012 – the list forms part of a BBC Radio 2 show running from 2pm till 5pm on Bank Holiday Monday (June 4).

In November 1952, five months after Queen Elizabeth II took the throne, the first ever Official Singles Chart was published in the New Musical Express. To mark this joint Jubilee, the Official Charts Company has compiled the definitive list of the biggest singles artists of all time, to be counted down by BBC Radio 2's Tony Blackburn in a special Jubilee Bank Holiday Monday show.

The list reveals The Beatles at the top, having sold the most chart singles over the past 60 years in the UK, followed by Elvis Presley and Sir Cliff Richard – all three have sold more than 20m singles in the UK. The Top 5 is completed by Madonna (on 17.6m) and Michael Jackson (15.3m).

Martin Talbot, managing director of the Official Charts Company, adds, “The Diamond Dozen, from the Beatles to Kylie, with Rihanna, Madonna, Elvis and Bowie in between, is truly the cream of music makers over the past six decades years. Over the past 60 years, the Official Singles Chart has provided the musical soundtrack to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth’s reign – and these artists have been her entertainers.”

The full Diamond Dozen are as follows:

01 THE BEATLES 21.9m
02 ELVIS PRESLEY 21.6m
03 CLIFF RICHARD 21.5m
04 MADONNA 17.6m
05 MICHAEL JACKSON 15.3m
06 ELTON JOHN 14.8m
07 QUEEN 12.6m
08 ABBA 11.2m
09 DAVID BOWIE 10.6m
10 RIHANNA 10.4m
11 PAUL McCARTNEY 10.2m
12 KYLIE MINOGUE 10.1m

BBC Radio 2 unveils full Official Singles Artists Top 60

The Diamond Dozen (outlined above) is the pinnacle of a full list of the Official Singles Artists Top 60 Of All Time, compiled by the Official Charts Company, which will be the subject of a Radio 2 show airing between 2pm and 5pm today, hosted by Tony Blackburn. The show will count down the full list, from Number 60 to Number 1, highlighting the biggest selling single by each artist.

The full Official Singles Artists Top 60 features plenty of stories. With singles sales currently at an all-time high (with 178m sold in 2011), current day stars perform surprisingly well. French DJ David Guetta comes in at 49, ahead of Coldplay and Duran Duran, while Eminem at 18 out-sells the likes of Tom Jones, Mariah Carey and U2.

Other stories include boy band Take That at 15 defeating girl power, with Spice Girls at 20. In turn, Britney Spears just pips Lady Gaga, at 26 and 28 respectively.

In turn, two artists feature twice in the list; Paul McCartney is at number 1 with The Beatles and at 11 as a solo artist, while George Michael is at 21 as a solo artist and 43 with Wham!.

Tony Blackburn, who will be hosting the Bank Holiday Monday show, says, “This chart offers a fascinating look at the past 60 years in music and shows the impact that modern stars like Rihanna and Katy Perry have had. The list is really varied and will provide something for everyone. There are definitely a few surprises in store - Coldplay being at 60 for one! It is sure to be an interesting listen and will be a great way to spend the Bank Holiday afternoon.”

The full Official Singles Artists Top 60 Of All Timeis as follows:

Nero to support North American MDNA Tour
London's premiere dubstep duo Nero has been announced as the opening act of the North American leg of Madonna's MDNA Tour this fall.
British-born producers, remixers, DJs, and artists Dan Stephens and Joe Ray aka Nero, will open for the Queen of Pop on select dates in the U.S. and in Canada, including New York's Madison Square Garden, Toronto's Air Canada Centre and Miami's American Airlines Arena. Nero will open the show with a DJ set, featuring live vocals from Alana.

Nero recently appeared at Coachella, Sasquatch, and the Electric Daisy Carnival NYC festivals and is also set to perform several shows on this summer's IDentity Festival, as well as at Lollapalooza in Chicago and Hard Summer Los Angeles in August. Please see below for all of Nero's upcoming tour dates.

Nero has been touring all year in support of their debut album Welcome Reality, which was released by Cherrytree/Interscope Records in December to rave reviews from Spin, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Entertainment Weekly, and Billboard.
Released in the U.K. in August 2011, Welcome Reality debuted at No. 1 and rapidly earned gold status, fueled by its singles "Innocence," Guilt," "Promises" (which also stormed straight to the top of the UK charts) and "Me and You," which was the most played record on Radio 1 for three weeks in a row and is the first U.S. single from the album. The official video for the song has racked up more than 13 million plays on YouTube.

That's good for Celebration thanks Liam!

Posted by: SweetCandy 10th June 2012, 05:35 PM

MDNA isn't top 40 today. Surely it climbs today or maybe the jubilee effect took over we will see..

Posted by: liamk97 10th June 2012, 05:45 PM

It will probably be number 41! At the very least, it should climb.

Posted by: SweetCandy 10th June 2012, 05:48 PM

That's what I'm thinking, but you never know cos of the jubilee, the sales will be interesting to see.

Posted by: SweetCandy 10th June 2012, 06:01 PM

#59 then

Posted by: vibe 10th June 2012, 06:05 PM

Number 59 well it is still a climb, it shall decline again until the tour arrives

Posted by: SweetCandy 10th June 2012, 06:08 PM

She was #50 last week!

Posted by: liamk97 10th June 2012, 06:12 PM

Now that IS a suprise! It's too much to ask for sales increase!

Posted by: SweetCandy 10th June 2012, 06:15 PM

Yeah! I'll be very surprised if she's top 75 next week.

Posted by: vibe 10th June 2012, 08:00 PM

Oh didn't realise she dropped ?

Posted by: SweetCandy 10th June 2012, 08:04 PM

Yeah 9 places but it was £3 in Hmv for a few days.

Posted by: SweetCandy 11th June 2012, 06:42 PM

MDNA sold about 2,700 last week to make about 112,000 to date.

Posted by: liamk97 11th June 2012, 07:34 PM

120k in another 4 weeks perhaps?

Posted by: SweetCandy 11th June 2012, 07:39 PM

I'm guessing it will have a massive fall this week. Roll on July but I'm sure 99% of the fans going will already own the album.

Posted by: vibe 11th June 2012, 09:42 PM

There will be thousands of people going to the gigs who don't have the album but are just going to here her classics (hence why they will leave frustrated cos it's not a gh show)

Posted by: liamk97 17th June 2012, 06:19 PM

I would like to think it's dropped out just because of Father's Day effect, and will re-enter the Top 100 next week, but it probably won't

Posted by: SweetCandy 17th June 2012, 06:22 PM

I think your right. We have to wait about 4 or 5 weeks for an improvement in the charts here I think.

Madonna's weeks in the album chart Top 75: 1,184 to date.
The most for a female.

Posted by: SweetCandy 18th June 2012, 01:49 PM

From Music Week
Madonna's MDNA is a notable absentee from the Top 75, freefalling 59-129 (1,128 sales) this week to complete an 11 week run on the list. It is the shortest initial Top 75 run of any Madonna album since her self-titled 1984 debut. MDNA has sold 112,765 copies to date.

Also..
Vince Kidd's cover of Like A Virgin made sales of 2,724 downloads to make #97.

Thanks as always!.

Posted by: SweetCandy 25th June 2012, 03:56 PM

Hopefully Celebration will go 2 x platinum by the end of the year if it's still selling 1k each week. Plus the tour effect and it has also been top 40 for 2 weeks ok not massive sales but I hope it reaches 600,000 sales.

Posted by: liamk97 4th August 2012, 01:11 PM

Although to be fair, MDNA did fall to a similar level it was before the tour came to the UK (it was #110 before jumping to #59), and last week it didn't have the hype of the tour coming to the UK or the promotion (little of, I know) of the tour.

Posted by: SweetCandy 4th August 2012, 03:13 PM

The album is doing well I think. As not any promotion. The press did everything to make the Hyde park show look like a shambles but it wasn't.

Posted by: liamk97 4th August 2012, 04:44 PM

Considering its start, it has done well to stick around. Although I suspect that the album will have another huge fall this week, and then fall out of the Top 200 (unless HMV's 2 for £15 offer can help it).

Posted by: SweetCandy 4th August 2012, 04:57 PM

Thank you, I did indeed! Like a Prayer is currently #169 on iTunes, so even with all the Olympic songs (most of them will have fallen huge places but still nevertheless in the Top 200), it should remain Top 200 I reckon.

Madonna has been named the biggest-selling female singles artist in UK chart history

The iconic singer has sold over 17.8 million singles in the UK since her chart debut with ‘Holiday’ back in January 1984.

The track peaked at number six and it wasn’t until 1985 that Madonna claimed her first UK number one single with ‘Into the Groove’.

However, Rihanna is quickly catching up with the legendary performer after shifting 11.4 million singles in the UK in just seven years, reports The Official Charts Company.

The Bajan star has sold over 3 million singles in the UK over the last year alone and could realistically overtake Madonna’s lead within the next two and half years.

Kylie Minogue is at number three will 10.2 million singles sold across her 25-year career, while Whitney Houston is at four (8.5m) and Lady GaGa is at five (7.329m).

The Official Biggest Selling Female Singles Artists of All Time are as follows:

1. Madonna (17.8m)
2. Rihanna (11.4m)
3. Kylie Minogue (10.2m)
4. Whitney Houston (8.5m)
5. Lady GaGa (7.329m)
6. Britney Spears (7.324m)
7. Beyoncé (6.9m)
8. Celine Dion (6.7m)
9. Mariah Carey (6.62m)
10. Olivia Newton John (6.61m)

They are rounded to the nearest 10k, so they could still be a few thousand off, but still.

Hung Up has sold ~16,000 in 9 months (was on 584,000 in May 2012 when the best sellers of the Noughties was revealed) which means ~21,000 per year, ~1,800 per month and ~400 per week.

She actually isn't even that close to a million , into the groove is like 180,000 sales away I think ! But we all know all her sales added up put her at number 1

From the OCC Report on Justin Timberlake's Best Selling Singles:

While his album output might be a little on the scarce side, he’s been popping up all over the place on the Official Singles Chart as a featured artist. Some of his biggest successes have been as a guest star, with his best-performing outing being the 2008 smash 4 Minutes with the mighty Madonna, notching up almost 500,000 copies in the UK and hitting the Number 1 spot all over the world. So far, 4 Minutes is Madonna’s biggest-selling digital download.

BPI sales certification to be automated

by Tina Hart
Friday July 19 2013

The BPI’s Certified Awards Scheme is to include auto-updated sales data for the first time.

The scheme forms the official recognition of artist achievement in respect of UK sales of albums, singles and music DVDs/Blu-rays, and the basis on which the industry’s Silver, Gold and Platinum/Multi-Platinum discs are presented.

Previously, BPI waited for official notification from its label members of a title’s sales performance based on shipment deliveries, but from today (Friday, July 19) the awards will automatically recognise the popularity of artist releases as soon as they go past relevant sales thresholds, in-line with Official Charts Company data.

This new approach aims to improve the integrity of the awards scheme, making it instantly more up-to-date and accurate across all formats. BPI members will, however, retain the option of notifying the trade body’s Rob Crutchley of their new release shipment deliveries, thus ensuring the scheme remains a flexible one that enables the success of titles to be recognised at the earliest possible opportunity if required.

Also, Non-BPI members will now be able to participate in the Awards Scheme for the first time.

As part of this ‘auto-updating’ process, which is based on data stretching back to 1994 when the Official Charts Company was established, sales certifications for a number of titles have been retrospectively updated:

Included in the list of newly-certified albums are the likes of Ellie Goulding’s Halcyon, Rita Ora’s Rita Ora and Little Mix’s DNA – which are recognised for achieving over 300,000 sales to attain Platinum status, while Susan Boyle’s 2010 smash The Gift is acknowledged as going Double Platinum for its 600,000-plus sales.

A number of albums, such as Bruno Mars’ Unorthodox Jukebox and Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here, have been given an updated category certification – moving from Gold (100,000 copies) to Double Platinum (600,000 copies) status.

In relation to singles, releases that are certified for the first time include the world’s best-selling title of 2012 – Carly Rae Jepsen’s Call Me Maybe, which has its Double Platinum status (1.2 million-plus sales) confirmed.

Among the Music DVDs/Blu-rays being acknowledged with a certification is the record-breaking 2009 video release Take That Presents: The Circus Live, which is recognised for going x11 Platinum (550,000-plus sales).

These changes form part of a wider and ongoing review of how artist achievements in sales should be acknowledged and celebrated going forward, and further announcements will made in due course.

That's very good news! '4 Minutes' and 'Hung Up' are in particular in need of receiving Gold and Platinum certifications respectively. I'm not sure if this means her songs from the 80s will be updated with the certifications used today (so that 'Into the Groove' will be Platinum, which would mean 1m+ sales at the time.)

Every interesting I can't wait to see what this does for her back catalogue.

Posted by: SweetCandy 17th August 2013, 08:35 AM

From the OCC:
We show the Queen of Pop’s 1986 hit from the True Blue album some Pop Gem love.

There’s not a lot to say about Madonna that hasn’t been said already. Master of reinvention, Queen of Pop, ambitious Material Girl – she’s been called them all. When you’re talking about a star as huge as Madonna, so globally hyper-mega-famous and instantly recognisable to any music fan, it can be easy to forget why she became such a massive icon in the first place: she is very good at being a popstar and has all the tunes.

13 Number 1 singles in the UK

Her track record speaks for itself. She’s reached the peak of the Official Singles Chart 13 times – her first was Into The Groove in 1985 – and has enjoyed 12 Official Albums Chart Number 1s. Hit after hit after hit in a career spanning almost 30 years, from that very first UK chart entry in January 1984 (Holiday, which peaked at Number 6) to her most recent Top 40 entry Give Me All Your Luvin’.

Birthday girl

So in celebration of Madonna’s 55th birthday today, we thought it was about to time we showed a bit of love for the lady who paved the way for Kylie, Britney, Rihanna, Lady Gaga and a host of other female solo stars. Throughout her career she’s been unapologetic about expressing her sexuality and is always ready to get frank when necessary (and quite often when not, but that’s our Madge).

The Pop Gem problem

But which of Madonna’s track to pick as a Pop Gem? There are so many. We decided to cut out the Number 1s straightaway – as much as we love Into The Groove, Vogue, Music, Hung Up and the rest, they’ve had their time in the spotlight. So what about the classic tracks that didn’t make it to the top? We threw it out to our followers on Facebook and Twitter. Most of the suggestions were absolute corkers and we debated long and hard at Official Charts HQ, but the honour had to go to Open Your Heart, which made Number 4 at the end of 1986. The track was picked by Facebook follower James Masterton, a man of impeccable taste.

The Number 1 that should’ve been?

Open Your Heart suffered, in a way, from following the mega smashes Papa Don’t Preach and True Blue in 1986. Its parent album – also called True Blue – was an essential in every pop lover’s Christmas stocking that year and selling like rather warm baked goods, so Open Your Heart may have been overlooked simply because all the other tracks were so huge.

1986 was a stellar year for Madonna. The four singles she had in the Top 200 of the year sold just over 1.7 million copies combined in 1986. Papa Don’t Preach was the big one, coming in 8th for 1986 and shifting 583,000 copies that year. True Blue comes in next, selling 495,000 copies in ’86, the 11th best seller of the year. Open Your Heart settled for 170,000 sales in 1986 – not bad to say it was released in December. It managed to sell another 40,000 in 1987.

That notorious video

Its video caused quite a stir when first released, and featured Madonna playing the role of what you might call an exotic dancer if you were describing it to your gran. The video was also the first look the world got at Felix Howard – the rosy-cheeked 13-year-old who went on to be a magazine cover star and even co-wrote tracks for Sugababes and Amy Winehouse when he grew up.

We’re not quite sure how Madonna feels about Open Your Heart. While it was a staple of her first three tours, it was pretty much ignored in Madonna’s live sets for 22 years, before reappearing in 2012’s MDNA tour. We, however, love it, like a favourite cardigan (cashmere) or extra scoop of ice cream. It always makes us feel good.

I don't think they've finished updating yet - someone mentioned in the Sugababes AF that there's still some Sugababes ones which need updating despite them updating some. However, all of her albums appear to be correct aside Hard Candy which should be Platinum (remember pre-1994 albums won't be automatically updated). As for her singles, 'Don't Tell Me' must be close to Silver but I wouldn't have thought it would have passed 200k just yet.

They won't be updating pre 1994 as they don't have the figures- Gallup took their data with them when they lost the chart contract so they simply don't know. Having said that it doesn't stop them giving sales for the Beatles, Pink Floyd etc.

We also have a new figure for MDNA- 131,924

Presumably Gallup still have the sales data though, so perhaps they pass on sales for acts like The Beatles and Pink Floyd as their albums are among the best sellers?

So MDNA has sold 3,100 copies this year!

From the OCC:
Robbie Williams, JLS and Jake Bugg are battling it out to score the 1000th Number 1 album on the UK’s Official Albums Chart.

Lady Gaga yesterday secured the 999th Official Number 1 in the 57-and-a-half year history of the UK’s Official Albums Chart – meaning that a new Number 1 this Sunday (November 24) will be the historic 1000th Number 1.

The albums set to fight it out for the honour of the 1000th Official Number 1 are Robbie Williams’ new album Swing Both Ways, the JLS greatest hits Goodbye and Jake Bugg’s second album Shangri-la. All three albums are released today (Monday, November 18), with initial sales reports set to show who is setting the early pace tomorrow morning (Tuesday).

The very first Number 1 album back in July 1956 was Frank Sinatra’s classic Songs For Swingin’ Lovers – in the chart compiled and published in Record Mirror magazine.

Since then, there have almost 3,000 different album charts published – with a colourful history, including a 1971 postal strike which prevented a rundown being published for several weeks (with George Harrison’s All Things Must Pass retrospectively crowned as the ex-Beatle’s only Number 1 with a solo studio album).

Over the six decades, The Beatles are the undefeated kings of the Official Albums Chart, with 15 Number 1s and 174 weeks at the summit – with Elvis Presley totting up the second biggest total of weeks (63 weeks, across 11 chart toppers), and Madonna the second biggest albums tally (12 Number 1s in total, spanning 30 weeks).

In the three and half years after the chart was launched in July 1956, 17 albums hit Number 1 during the 1950s. In turn, 56 albums topped the album chart in the 1960s, 147 did so in the 1970s, 182 in the 1980s, 215 in the 1990s and 269 in the 2000s. The 1000th Number 1 of all time will be the 114th of this decade.

“This is a hugely significant landmark in the history of the music industry,” says Official Charts Company chief executive Martin Talbot. “While the Official Singles Chart is the fast-moving, barometer of pop music tastes, the Official Albums Chart reflects the broader tastes of British music fans and their attachment to outstanding song collections.

“The list of albums which have topped the albums chart over the years underlines just how important it is, including iconic titles such as The Beatles’ Sgt Pepper… and Revolver, The Stones’ Exile On Main Street, David Bowie’s Aladdin Sane, Led Zepplin IV, Queen’s A Night At The Opera, Michael Jackson’s Thriller – right up to Amy Winehouse’s Back To Black, Adele’s 21 and Daft Punk’s Random Access Memories.”

The winner will be crowned this Sunday at 7pm, and the Official Albums Chart Top 100 will be posted in full, here.

Quite impressive for Madonna to be the only female act in both of those given Top 10s. I have no idea which female soloist is closet to making the Top 10 of Most Number One Albums - I count 5 for Celine Dion and 6 for Barbra Streisand but they haven't got much chance of getting 9+. Even Rihanna and Lady Gaga are on 4 and 3 respectively.

Posted by: SweetCandy 18th November 2013, 05:39 PM

How many as Kylie had ?.

Posted by: liamk97 18th November 2013, 07:39 PM

She has 5 too - I forgot about Greatest Hits from 1992. If she releases her new album in the Spring when The Voice UK is on, she could potentially receive her sixth.

Posted by: liamk97 19th November 2013, 04:13 PM

The OCC have revealed a list of artists by the amount of their #1 albums which allows me to work out a females only list:

01. Madonna : 12 (this list gives 11 so probably not counting Evita)
02. Barbra Streisand : 6
03. Celine Dion : 5
04. Kylie Minogue : 5
05. Rihanna : 4
06. Amy Winehouse : 3
07. Avril Lavigne : 3
08. Eva Cassidy : 3
09. Kate Bush : 3
10. Lady Gaga : 3
11. Norah Jones : 3
12. Susan Boyle : 3

Then it goes into artists with just one or two. Seems Rihanna has the best chance of overtaking but it will take many years, even though she seems to release an album every 5 minutes!

Official Charts Flashback: 30 years of Holiday, Madonna’s First Top 10 Hit
07/02/2014
By Justin Myers



1984: A song called Holiday jets into the Top 10 for the very first time – but certainly not the last. Madonna’s debut hit and signature song has been a Top 10 hit THREE times.

Can you remember a time before Madonna? If you can’t, and only know her as the global superstar she is now, there’s every chance you won’t know just how exciting, different and interesting this ragtag American singer with a kind of squeaky voice seemed when her ditty about skiving off work entered the Top 10 this week in 1984.

Sassy solo female singers were nothing new, of course and another young American lady named Cyndi Lauper was enjoying her first Top 10 hit with Girls Just Want To Have Fun a little further up the chart, but Madonna seemed to have something special from the start. Brutally honest and funny in interviews, her music was unashamedly poppy and devoted to having a good time and Holiday, now one of her most famous songs, perfectly encapsulated Madonna’s whole ethos: “Awww, just have a day off, it’ll be fine”.

Watch Madonna perform Holiday on Top Of The Pops before we tell the story of her very first feelgood smash. The guy dancing to the left of her with the impressive sweatpatches is her brother Christopher.

Little did we know that behind those bright eyes and kind of half-hearted dancing there was an ambitious workaholic, who would stop at nothing until she achieved global domination and, well, it didn’t take her very long.

Holiday had been in the Top 40 for three weeks before it finally clambered into the Top 10. It seemed odd that this happy, carefree record hadn’t been released in the height of summer and when it peaked at Number 6, Madonna obviously decided that wasn’t good enough – it was rereleased 18 months later covered in suntan lotion and in the height of Madonnamania, this time making it all the way to Number 2.

Holiday was Madonna’s first Top 10 hit but her next two singles fared less well. Lucky Star landed at Number 14 and Borderline, a huge fan favourite, actually stalled at Number 56 first time round. That one usually comes up in pub quizzes – nobody can quite believe it wasn’t an instant hit.

Perhaps sensing that plan for world domination couldn’t be achieved by tracks from her debut, self-titled album, she moved on to the Like A Virgin era in November 1984, beginning a residency of the Official Singles Chart that would see every single she released for the next 10 years chart in the Top 10. Yes, all 35 of them. 35! The spell was finally broken by Take A Bow, one of her biggest hits in the US, which peaked at Number 16 in the UK.

Borderline would get another shot at the Top 10 in 1986, when it zoomed up to Number 2, coming at the end of a blitz of Madonna chart entries – eight within a year. She would have to wait until August 1985 for her first Number 1, Into The Groove. For one week, Holiday sat right behind it in Number 2. There’d be another 12 chart-toppers to come, but we’ll be talking about those later…

After Madonna released her first greatest hits collection in late 1990, The Immaculate Collection (still one of the biggest selling albums in the UK of all time, fact fans), Holiday’s time had come once more. It was rereleased the following summer with some tunes that hadn’t made the greatest hits and so had another crack at the Official Singles Chart. This time, it reached Number 5. Three goes at getting to the top spot is a pretty impressive run, and even more impressive to hit the Top 20 every time, but you’ve got to know when it’s time to retire, and Holiday finally went on a very long chart vacation and hasn’t been since.

Madonna’s not one for showing much affection for her old hits, but Holiday has fared better than most – she has performed it on all but one of her nine live tours. And you love it too: it is one of her biggest selling singles, shifting 795,000 copies in the UK.

Watch Madge – we can’t believe we got the whole way through an article without calling her Madge until now – perform it on her Reinvention Tour in 2004. She’s come a long way, hasn’t she?

Tomorrow, to celebrate 30 years since that very first hit on the Official Singles Chart: all Madonna’s Number 1 singles in the UK, ranked by how much they sold. What’s your favourite? Find out which of her 13 chart-toppers has outsold the rest.

Presumably 'Like a Virgin' is still second on her best sellers list though with at least over 800k. Wonder if this is a better trickle seller than 'Into the Groove'?

Unfortunately, the updated archives on the OCC site see differences between the #76-100 positions to those given on UKMIX.

Therefore changes have been to chart runs from 'Secret' to 'Don't Tell Me' and I'll have to assume the #101-200 positions from this period were wrong too. Albums are fine though.

'Die Another Day' gets certified Silver (200k) by the BPI, yay!

'Vogue' has now sold 535k, as revealed by the OCC in their new quiz: http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/quiz-who-sold-more__11079/

Exciting news! The Immaculate Collection has re-entered the chart at #187 - the first time since August 2008. It's regularly charted on the budget chart though.

Fab

Do we have recent total sales for it?

Posted by: Joe. 9th February 2016, 10:23 PM

1,518,262

Posted by: HausofTroye 9th February 2016, 10:26 PM

Thanks Joe! I assume it's her best selling greatest hits by some way?

Posted by: Joe. 9th February 2016, 10:30 PM

I feel like 90s sales may be missing though... I'll look into it...I swear it's sold loads more than that..


Edit - yes, those are just sales from 1994 onwards....sales before are just lost...

Posted by: liamk97 9th February 2016, 10:30 PM

The figure Joe posted is its 1994+ sales and I've been searching all over for its 1990-1993 sales to add on but can't find them anywhere!

The last official total revealed was 3,665,068 the w/e 1 November 2014 (when True Blue re-entered the Top 40 after being discounted) so I imagine it must be at 3.7m by now given it was constantly in the budget chart.

GHV2 is approaching 900k and Celebration is approaching 600k, so they'll be certified 3x and 2x Platinum when they reach those marks.

Well i'll take 3.7million over Joe's initial total

Posted by: liamk97 9th February 2016, 10:39 PM

Yeah, I know which I like the sound of most!

The Immaculate Collection up to #178 this week!

Posted by: liamk97 15th May 2016, 01:26 PM

Combined sales (sales + streams) for '4 Minutes' have been revealed as 530k by the OCC, suggesting perhaps 20k worth of streams.

Yes I read this, will it have taken over any other song ?

Celebration re-entered the album chart at #112 a couple of weeks ago and was #151 last week.

It had sold 565k by the end of its chart run last year but I imagine it is still way of 2x Platinum.

Any news of True Blue or Like A Virgin re-entering the UK Top 200 due to the coloured vinyl sales at Sainsbury's?

Posted by: Jaÿ 21st October 2016, 05:28 PM

^ Both re-entered the Top 100! True Blue at #62, Like A Prayer at #72.

Posted by: liamk97 21st October 2016, 08:40 PM

Had no idea they were set to re-enter! #3 and #4 on the vinyl album chart respectively and in fact #43 and #45 on the album sales-only chart!

Posted by: liamk97 30th October 2016, 02:08 PM

Like a Prayer and True Blue may just have clung on to Top 200 placings last week (I'll post their positions when/if they're revealed).

Still Top 5 on the vinyl chart.

'4 Minutes' now revealed to be on 539k: http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/justin-timberlakes-official-top-20-biggest-songs__15053/

'American Pie' has just passed 400k including streams: http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/flashback-madonna-scored-her-9th-uk-number-1-single-with-american-pie-17-years-ago-this-week__18424/

Don't know where to post this but Celebration album has gone x2 Plat

Posted by: liamk97 24th March 2017, 10:58 PM

Here's great! Thanks Joe, it was under 40k away by the end of its chart run back when Rebel Heart was released, so 2 years on its 2x platinum certification was imminent.
