Umi's Chart Highlights:

• "Frozen" scores an eighth week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, marking the longest run atop the list since Adele's "21" closed out a 24-week run at No. 1 in 2012.
• Since 1991, "Frozen" is just the 20th album to spend at least eight weeks at No. 1. In that span of time, "21" has ruled the longest, followed by Whitney Houston's "The Bodyguard" soundtrack (with 20 weeks at No. 1) and Garth Brooks' "Ropin' the Wind" (with 18).
• "Shakira." is Shakira's highest charting album ever, but also beats out "She Wolf" as her lowest first week for an English album, selling 85k in comparison to 89k for "She Wolf".
• "Out Among the Stars" by Johnny Cash (#3) is the highest-debuting posthumous release (Cash died in 2003) since Jimi Hendrix's "People, Hell and Angels" debuted at No. 2 on the chart dated March 23, 2013.
• Overall album sales in this past chart week (ending March 30) totaled 4.67 million units, down 1 percent compared with the sum last week (4.71 million) and down 28 percent compared with the comparable sales week of 2013 (6.5 million).
• Year-to-date album sales stand at 61.7 million, down 17 percent compared with the same total at this point last year (74 million).

London Grammar slaying all faves :cheer:

The album sales drop is also particularly violent this week. I guess people like to stream albums too? :drama:

 

How much longer can "Frozen" stay at #1 I wonder? I don't see much in the line of competition on the horizon.

148 54 Lady GaGa - ARTPOP

Video has done more for the album than the single.

 

** 91 London Grammar If You Wait (NEW)

Looks like they recently released a deluxe version. Can't believe this is their first appearance in the Billboard 200.

 

31 121 Kylie Minogue - Kiss Me Once

Ouch :o

 

60 155 George Michael - Symphonica

Double ouch :lol:

 

** 166 Sam Smith - Nirvana E.P. (NEW)

Saturday Night Live seems to do wonders for new artists. Lets see what effect it has on Ed Sheeran has next week.

Apparently 5 Seconds Of Summer's EP is counting as an album and might be #1 next week.

So nothing has really come close to Adele's performance. They must be praying she releases an album soon :lol:

 

• "Shakira." is Shakira's highest charting album ever, but also beats out "She Wolf" as her lowest first week for an English album, selling 85k in comparison to 89k for "She Wolf".

That is strange since there is only a minor hit on the album.

Hey, I didn't say they'd be consecutive weeks :P But I think Frozen should be able to see them off, at least I hope it does.

All down to the Voice I think. And the fact that she seems to never be off Billboard's front page :drama:

Forgot about The Voice.

 

Then again, maybe she would have had more time to properly promote if she wasn't doing the show.
