Sigur Rós #1 album? :o :cheer: :wub:

Can't believe Euphoria is #1. :o

 

I'll have to have a root through my spreadsheet and get something on Eurovision winners...

I have something on file somewhere with all the Eurovision chart stats. Will update it & post it tomorrow....

Had a search on irishcharts.ie and Nicole did indeed get to No.1. I'd be pretty confident that that was the last non-Irish Eurovision no.1.

Loreen at #1, perfect. :wub: Disappointing that Paloma's album missed the Irish Top 20. :( + her single only #80, good grief.

Chart Track Commentary

 

After debuting at No 2 back in September last year, Ed Sheeran’s ‘+’ finally reaches the top spot on the Irish Album Chart this week, boosted by performances on BBC’s The Voice and the Jubilee Concert. During this nine month period he’s only dropped out of the Top 10 for three weeks – and the album had spawned five hit singles.

 

One Direction climb one place back to No 2 with ‘Up All Night’, swapping positions with Adele whose ‘21’ slips to No 3. Neil Young & Crazy Horse have this week’s highest new entry at No 4 with ‘Americana’, their first album together since ‘Greendale’ which debuted and peaked at No 5 in 2003. In the intervening period (2004-2011) he’s released five solo studio albums, all of which made the Top 30 but none made the Top 10. Paul Simon has a re-entry at No 9 this week with the re-release of his most commercially-successful album ‘Graceland’, 26 years after its original launch in 1986. This is his third appearance in the Irish Top 10 this century: his two most recent studio albums ‘So Beautiful Or So What’ (2011) and ‘Surprise’ (2006) reached No 7 and No 8 respectively.

 

Loreen holds at No 1 on the Singles Chart for a second week with her Eurovision-winning ‘Euphoria’, maintaining a slim lead over the Ireland Squad’s ‘The Rocky Road To Poland’. Flo Rida climbs five places from No 8 to No 3 with ‘Whistle’, but the highest climber of the week is Gary Barlow & The Commonwealth Band with their Jubilee song ‘Sing’, up 41 places from No 53 to No 12. In a quiet week for new entries, the only other newcomers to the Top 30 are Ed Sheeran at No 27 with ‘Small Bump’ and Usher at No 29 with ‘Scream’.

Valtari 1-15 - must be one of the biggest drops from #1 ever? :( Although it was an extremely unexpected #1 anyway so hardly surprising.

Can't believe Euphoria managed to hold at No.1! If only she made a proper music video for it...

 

If everything goes well on Sunday evening I'd say Loreena will have a very rocky road to travel next weekend! :)

Nice jump for Gary Barlow but i had hoped it may sneak into the top 10. Had hoped Kylie may have made top 20 too but it wont happen now as it will drop next week, very surprised at the huge scissor sisters drop in the album chart.

Chart Track Commentary

 

With her third solo album ‘A Million Lights’ released today, Cheryl Cole debuts at the top of the Singles Chart with the lead single ‘Call My Name’ – her third solo No1 single in Ireland, following ‘Fight For This Love’ and ‘Promise This’. She also hit the top with Girls Aloud’s ‘Sound Of The Underground’ in 2002 and with Helping Haiti’s ‘Everybody Hurts’ in 2010, bringing her overall tally to five.

 

With the Euros in full swing, The Ireland Squad’s ‘The Rocky Road To Poland’ takes a third week at No 2, ahead of Flo Rida’s ‘Whistle’ at No 3 and Loreen’s ‘Euphoria’ at No 4 after two weeks at No 1. There’s not a lot of movement in this week’s chart, but Katy Perry climbs ten places from No 25 to No 15 with ‘Wide Awake’ to claim her 13th Top 20 hit single in Ireland, four years after her debut ‘I Kissed A Girl’ spent four weeks at No 1.

 

The Bee Gees head this week’s Album Chart with their ‘Number Ones’ compilation, up from No 5 last week. Ed Sheeran dips to No 2 after a week at No 1 with ‘+’, ahead of Brian Kennedy who has this week’s highest new entry at No 3 with ‘Voice’, aptly named given his role on the TV show, and his best showing on this chart since the Nineties when he scored two No 1 albums ‘A Better Man’ and ‘Now That I Know What I Want’. One Direction’s ‘Up All Night’ drops to No 4 while Scottish singer Amy MacDonald has the next new entry at No 5 with her third album ‘Life In A Beautiful Light’ - a significant advance on her two previous releases ‘This Is The Life’ (No 16 in 2008) and ‘A Curious Thing’ (No 26 in 2010). The third new entry of the week is at No 11 for Usher with his seventh studio album ‘Looking 4 Myself’. Of the previous six, the most successful were albums four and five – 2004’s ‘Confessions’ which reached No 1 and 2008’s ‘Here I Stand’ which made No 2. His previous album ‘Raymond v Raymond’ was a relatively disappointing No 17 in 2010. The fourth and final new entry in this week’s Top 20 is at No 12 for Hot Chip with their fifth album, and first for Domino Records, ‘In Our Heads’ – their third consecutive Top 20 in Ireland following ‘Made In the Dark’ (No 9 in 2008) and ‘One Life Stand’ (No 17 in 2010).

 

Edited June 29, 201213 yr by Shaky Fan

How many weeks in total has '21' been #1 on the Indie Albums chart? Really bizarre that such a world dominating album is technically on an independent label.

That's one hell of a run! First 37 weeks at number 1 and a total of 65 weeks there plus 7 weeks at number 2 and 1 week at 3.

Love the "predict" facility on excel.......

 

There I was updating the artist album chart spreadsheet and it ony shows Sigur Ros when I have typed as far as Sigur. Like there's a large number of acts beginning Sigur......

Chart Track Commentary

 

Two years after he landed his first Irish No 1 with ‘My Worlds’, Justin Bieber chalks up a second this week with his third album ‘Believe’. It’s a return to form for the Canadian boy wonder, after his interim festive second album ‘Under The Mistletoe’ peaked at No 5 in the run-up to Christmas last year.

 

There’s an all-new Top 3 on the Album Chart this week, with two new entries coming in behind Bieber. Cheryl debuts at No 2 with ‘A Million Lights’, her third album and the third to debut at No 2 – ‘3 Words’ behind Michael Bublé’s ‘Crazy Love’ in 2009 and ‘Messy Little Raindrops’ behind Bon Jovi’s ‘Greatest Hits’ in 2010. New at No 3 is Glen Hansard with his first solo album ‘Rhythm And Repose’, his first album of new material since The Swell Season’s ‘Strict Joy’ which reached No 19 in 2009. Prior to then he’s topped this chart on four occasions – with The Commitments in 1992, with The Frames twice (‘Set List’ in 2003 and ‘Burn The Maps’ in 2004) and with the soundtrack to ‘Once’ in 2008 alongside his Swell Season partner Markéta Irglová.

 

Flo Rida climbs two places to No 1 on the Singles Chart with ‘Whistle’ – his fifth Irish No 1 as lead artist, following ‘Low’, ‘Right Round’, ‘Club Can’t Handle Me’ and most recently ‘Good Feeling’. Cheryl drops to No 2 after a week on top with ‘Call My Name’, ahead of Maroon 5 & Wiz Khalifa who climb back up the chart from No 5 to No 3 with ‘Payphone’. Paloma Faith’s heavy promotional schedule pays dividends this week, as ‘Picking Up The Pieces’ enters the chart at No 13 giving her a second Top 20 Irish hit. The next new entry in this week’s chart is at No 19 for Stooshe with their second single ‘Black Heart’ – a major advance on their debut ‘Love Me’ (feat. Travie McCoy) which never made it higher than No 61 back in March.

Flo Rida secures his 5th #1 in 4 years. Not to shabby...
