I think it will stick around until Q4 which is when there are tonnes of new releases. It will probably return Top 10 by January 2013.
Oh I mis-read the question! I thought out of the top 40! Not top 10! So I went for the last option. Although her songs are going to be getting raped by shows like 'The Voice', 'Britain's Got Talent' and then 'X Factor' :drama: (I'm sure there'll be something in between BGT and XF to keep '21' selling aha)

I think Oct-Dec where Q4's new releases will overshadow it as april has already stated, I fully expect it to return many times after though

 

of course, if all the high profile shows keep raping her songs, it could well stay in the top 10 right until 20 fecking 14 :drama:

Hopefully sharpish. It's getting a little boring now and there are other albums out there just as good that could do with the recognition a top ten album could give them.
I'm going to take a shot for 'not until 2013', it's easier to get rid of chlamydia than this album.

There's still 9 other places in the top 10 :P

 

Albums that have peaked at #11 since the release of 21:

 

Alison Krauss & Union Station - Paper Airplane

Duran Duran - All You Need Is Now

Miles Kane - Colour Of The Trap

Pitbull - Planet Pit

Roberta Flack - Love Songs

The Soldiers - Message To You

 

And albums that have peaked at #12 while both Adele albums were top 10:

 

The Drifters - Up On The Roof - The Very Best Of

Frank Turner - England Keep My Bones

Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons - Working My Way Back To You

Gorillaz - The Fall

Joe Bonamassa - Dust Bowl

John Barrowman - Tonight's The Night - The Very Best Of

 

So the above albums would become top 10 albums if Adele was wiped clear from history (also Alicia Keys' As I Am and Robyn's Robyn if we go back to when 19 was originally released) :kink:

 

Most of these are well-established artists that have had plenty of other album successes, the only exceptions being Miles Kane (who had a #1 album with The Last Shadow Puppets), Pitbull (who has had plenty of singles success), Frank Turner, Joe Bonamassa and John Barrowman (who's more popular as an actor anyway). And Robyn, but again she's had quite significant singles success.

I think it will end up at #11 or #12 one week, perhaps on a week where there's a few new entries in the Top 10, and then return to the Top 10 for ages after that week. Not sure which month that'll happen in, though.

Albums that could be top 10 contenders:

 

5th Mar

 

Bruce Springsteen – Wrecking Ball

The Fray - Scars And Stories

Katie Melua - Secret Symphony

Lionel Richie – Tuskegee

Military Wives – In My Dreams

 

12th Mar

 

Marcus Collins – Marcus Collins

Michael Kiwanuka - Home Again

 

19th Mar

 

New Order - The Lost Sirens

Paul Weller – Sonik Kicks

 

26th Mar

 

Iron Maiden – En Vivo

Madonna – MDNA

 

2nd Apr

 

Labrinth – Electronic Earth

Lostprophets – Weapons

Nicki Minaj - Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded

 

9th Apr

 

nothing

 

16th Apr

 

nothing

 

23rd Apr

 

Feeder - Generation Freakshow

Jack White – Blunderbuss

 

So possibly the week of the 2nd of April only to climb straight back in.

I reckon May time but as others have said, return again and keep doing this until the start of the new year!

I don't think all of those will go top 10 and some of the ones that do will simply fall behind '21' again very quickly. I expect it to survive in the top 10 until Q4.

 

I've been intending to do some stats on how long albums have stayed ahead of '21' since its release for a while now actually - while I'm on the topic I guess I should go do that~

You're probably right, it depends largely on whether the likes of Emeli Sandé and Lana Del Rey can keep ahead of Adele with a new single getting airplay.

Albums which have been ahead of '21' at any point since its release, ordered by how many weeks they were ahead:

 

11 weeks

Ed Sheeran - + (n/c - 3wks, 1wk, 1wk, 2wks, 1wk, 3wks)

 

9 weeks

Coldplay - Mylo Xyloto (n/c - 5wks, 3wks, 1wk)

Michael Bublé - Christmas

 

5 weeks

Olly Murs - In Case You Didn’t Know

Rihanna - Talk That Talk

 

4 weeks

Amy Winehouse - Lioness: Hidden Treasures

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds

 

3 weeks

Amy Winehouse - Back To Black

Bruno Mars - Doo-Wops & Hooligans (n/c - 1wk, 1wk, 1wk)

Lady Gaga - Born This Way (n/c - 2wks, 1wk)

Lana Del Rey - Born To Die

 

2 weeks

Beyoncé - 4

Emeli Sandé - Our Version Of Events (n/c - 1wk, 1wk)

Florence + The Machine - Ceremonials

James Morrison - The Awakening

JLS - Jukebox

Kasabian - Velociraptor!

Matt Cardle - Letters

One Direction - Up All Night

Steps - The Ultimate Collection

Susan Boyle - Someone To Watch Over Me

Will Young - Echoes

 

1 week

Alfie Boe - Alfie

André Rieu & His Johann Strauss Orchestra - And The Waltz Goes On

Arctic Monkeys - Suck It And See

Cher Lloyd - Sticks + Stones

David Guetta - Nothing But The Beat

Drake - Take Care

Example - Playing In The Shadows

Foo Fighters - Wasting Light

Joe McElderry - Classic

Kate Bush - 50 Words For Snow

Kelly Clarkson - Stronger

Leonard Cohen - Old Ideas

Maverick Sabre - Lonely Are The Brave

Nero - Welcome Reality

Paul McCartney - Kisses On The Bottom

Professor Green - At Your Inconvenience

Rebecca Ferguson - Heaven

Red Hot Chili Peppers - I'm With You

Snow Patrol - Fallen Empires

Take That - Progress

The Wanted - Battleground

Westlife - Greatest Hits

 

That's 44 albums in 58 weeks. Half of those dropped behind it immediately and never re-overtook it. Only three albums have managed over 5 weeks and only one over 10 (and only 'Christmas' has done over 5 in a row). An average of 2.34 weeks ahead of '21' for each album that did it for at least a week.

I know but I was more thinking of the top 5 to be honest as that's all that gets publicity on Radio 1. An extension of the album chart aired is needed so that some people get a chance to know what's on offer besides Adele.

The 21st century record for weeks in the top 10 is 72 weeks, held by both 'The Fame' and 'Back To Black' (the latter including weeks in the top 10 by both versions, so there's one 'duplicate' week where both were top 10 at the same time). Adele could well beat that before dropping out for the first time. It would achieve that on the 17th of June (15 weeks from yesterday).

Ahahahahahahaha.

Hopefully soon. It's not even that good an album. The singles are all great and 'Turning Tables' but the album tracks are a bit dull. I think it's just selling on hype now.

What's the overall record for most weeks in the top 10?
