I've not followed the mids this week, what's the reason for the Alanis re-entry?

 

Google Play's 99p album of the week.

 

I'm more curious about Emeli's album - has that also been going cheap this week? I'm sure she hasn't done anything of note recently (I doubt 'What I Did For Love' is behind this seeing as it's struggling to sell itself let alone an album it doesn't feature on :lol:)

Why are the Kylie albums classed as new entries altogether? They each have only one week on the chart according to the OCC's records.

It's because they hadn't entered the charts within the time that the current chart compiler (Millward Brown) has been in charge (since 1994).

Fergie was really saved by streaming, in the sales-only chart she went 2-9-21 which seems like a disaster even compared to very-same-but-different 3-10-19 run.

 

The single doesn't do wonders but it still had a smash peak, two weeks in the top-10 and if the next single is good it has all the potential to be supported and to be a hit.

Googleplay 99p deal

 

EDIT just realised that's already been answered :doh:

 

Shame Kylie's 'Let's Get To It' missed out on a Top 100 finish though

Did NOT see Drake coming for that #3 with a Friday release :o poor Kodaline though, I think I'm right in saying both their albums were midweek #1s that couldn't hold on come Sunday :(

I don't know for certain but I am pretty sure Kodaline were #1 on the Wednesday Update with their debut album too, so yes. Poor guys!

Just noticed that Sam Smith has had 3 singles simultaneously in the Top 40 for the last 14 weeks. So then I counted that Ed Sheeran had 3 singles (Sing/Don't/TOL) simultaneously in the Top 40 for 22 consecutive weeks (starting from w/c 05/07/14). Anyone know if that's a record? I can't think of any other examples in the past where an artist would have had 3 or more singles in the chart for that long. I wonder how many more Sam Smith will rack up, surely 'Stay With Me' will leave the Top 40 soon...

Do they have to be the same 3 songs? If not, Rihanna (of course):

25 weeks. I'd assume there's longer though.

Sam Smith will rack up 4 singles next week inside the top 40. :(

Who are these new entries outside top ten on album chart? I know some of them, such as Father John Misty and Peace, but most of others... no idea!

 

Well Black Rivers are 2/3 of Doves who you may know :P (Who have incidentally charted just four places higher than the other 1/3's solo album).

Imagine Dragons' 'Radioactive' has reached 100 weeks in the top 100! Bastille's 'Pompeii' likely to follow suit next week.
Good to see Hotel and No Type still in the top 100 :cheer:

Thanks, I loved Doves at one point, totally missed the info about this.

Do they have to be the same 3 songs? If not, Rihanna (of course):

Didn't even think of Rihanna. It would have been more impressive if they were the same 3 songs and all lead Rihanna singles rather than features, which would have made it more comparable with Ed Sheeran or Sam Smith. But I guess that's still quite an achievement by Rihanna, she really was quite ubiquitous back in 2010/2011!

Style top 40 sales but #65 officially :cry: :cry:

 

Her 3rd & 4th single releases might find it difficult to find a high peak without streams in this era!
