I know it's already been said but MASSIVE OUCH for the Courteeners :o

 

But possibly an even bigger OUCH for Frightened Rabbit, 9 to 54!!

Edited February 17, 201313 yr by mango

Such an underwhelming chart with the limp "I Could Be the One", which is in no way anthemic, being #1, followed by the just-as-uneventful "Harlem Shake" at #3. And then there's Gabrielle Aplin and God knows how she managed another top 10 hit! It says a lot when Bruno Mars is the most exciting new entry into the top ten in any week...

Nice to see the dates of their tour, that The Killers had to re-schedule for this week, seemed to help the album climb a couple of places. This album deserves to be just as big as their others! :(

 

Awesome for 'Mirrors' to stay Top 30 too :wub:

Bruno Mars reached 250 weeks top 75

Taylor Swift reached 100 weeks top 75

 

Calvin Harris (if I've linked all the featured credits together correctly) reached 100 weeks top 20

 

I wouldn't normally mention someone reaching 50 weeks in the top 75, but Skrillex getting to that milestone without ever getting higher than number 24 deserves to be noted

Looks like it'll be the last week for Love Is Easy in the top 100 :(

 

A good chart run for them though!
