Nice to see the Arctics get a 7th week in the Top 20 and actually climbing again :D

 

Only their 6th week top 20 to be pedantic, they had a week at #21 :P

Annoyed that Lana's album can't seem to find its way into the top 40, but I guess Ceremonials didn't do much better when 'Spectrum' was smashing (until the re-release at least!).

^[D] The Jessie Ware remix of this hasn't been released yet but appears to be the single version so I'm tentatively crediting Jessie for now until further info is available

 

PSY finally takes an outright lead in the singles longevity stakes as The Script drop out (a double dropout for will.i.am this week on there oops). Appropriate for '22' to sneak into the top 10 on its 22nd top 100 week. (no longer applies after retroactive P!nk fixing)

Ouch at the drop for Selena's album.

Bre, are you sure that "Don't You Worry Child" and "22" have an unbroken top 100 run since entering for the first time..? I thought that both of them had at least one week out of the Top 100 (Especially the former).

I was so wrong..Impressive chart run for "Don't You Worry Child". I didn't like it when it released on October but i loved it in the last months. "Greyhound" is my favourite from Swedish House Mafia. I know that you totally hate "22" but it has a good chart run as a third single.

 

Where do you get top 100 chart runs mate?

Backstreet Boys' highest charting album in 8 years! It's a damn good pop album!

 

I'm actually surprised that BSB managed to shift 6k this week and maintain their Top 20 midweek position. Fair play to them considering the lead single bombed and they have not had any real commercial success or promo in the UK for years apart from a few concerts.

Where do you get top 100 chart runs mate?

 

Maybe he does his own bookkeeping?

^^Impressive if so, I know polyhex do the top 75s. Maybe Chart+ too?

I have all top 75 charts since 2000 but I don't do chart runs... which is a big mistake in terms of being a chart nerd but it would take too much time to do them each week.

Edited August 7, 201313 yr by SKOB

I always mean to do them for my Personal Chart as they look class all done with the peak in red but it takes alot of work!!

I also compile the Finnish Record store chart which takes some time. There I must do the chart runs! It's interesting though

Edited August 8, 201313 yr by SKOB

That would be a quality job lol #chartgeek

Compile is a bad word here though, basically I just get the chart and then write an article about it.

 

Here's the latest chart: http://www.rumba.fi/five-finger-death-punc...974/#more-36974

I wanted to find out these chart runs - thought I may as well post them here too!
