Tinashe's album was incredible for its genre, a total breath of fresh air. Most definitely not poor in comparison.

Dunno if it's been mentioned or not, but 'Eyes Shut' is 59p!

Aquarius is one of the best R&B albums in a long time. I don't think it was poor at all, she's unfortunately just one of those artists who will most likely never make it big :(.

I've got some songs grey (and so not available to buy) on iTunes. Does anyone else has this problem?

Fleur not really dropping markedly and the 48 hour immediate impact of the X factor performance will have now been completely removed from the pop bars. Wow!!!

People say it's a 48 hour rolling chart but I'm sure it's a bit longer than that. Either way, I expect Fleur to remain stable, as the song has genuine buzz.

Justin is getting massive increases. He could really take #1 here.

2 Minutes silence was followed by Strong London Grammar on R1 (followed by Eyes Shut). Capital went with Halo and Heart with Read All About it Part 3.

 

I wonder if they get boosts - current positions:

 

33 Years & Years Eyes Shut

380 Beyoncé Halo

969 Emeli Sandé Read All About It, Pt. III

1495 London Grammar Strong

The iTunes chart isn't a 48 hour rolling chart (or at least it isn't any more, it may have been in the past). Songs that get made album-only on iTunes take a week to disappear from the feed entirely.

Yeah, I think it's actually a 7 day rolling chart. Jess Glynne's 'Take Me Home' album version was still in the top 500 4 days after it was made album only.

It's probably even more complicated than that. It must be biased towards recent sales.

What I don't get where is their streaming chart? It was said that it is somehow combined with the sales chart but it's not evident as I can see.

I think Apple somehow combines their sales chart with the streamings so the iTunes chart is actually a sales+streaming chart. Not sure and no evidence there though

As far as I can see Apple's 'streaming chart' (the one on Apple Music at least) is just the sales chart with any titles not available to stream taken out.

 

I don't think they've ever actually published their legit streaming chart.

How do we know that the sales' chart is still a sales' chart? :D

Apple Music's "chart" is annoying at times, for example Sorry isn't on there at all even though it is #3 on iTunes! Ministry Of Sound tracks are on there now, so there are very few songs that aren't available, but there are a few examples like Sorry for some reason that are on Apple Music but just don't show up on the chart. In2 doesn't either!

Call it a gut instinct, unless Last Post by The Central Band of the Royal British Legion is genuinely one of today's top 100 streamed tracks on Apple Music!

 

There are certain songs that you just know would never be streamed in large quantities yet appear in the top 100.

Well if it's a combined chart they could enter that just on sales, couldn't they? But I agree I don't think that the streaming is anyhow included in the chart at all at the moment.

Songs would be increasing at much slower rates if streaming were included; and I haven't noticed much of a difference since Apple Music launched. Like, I don't think Fleur would've jumped to 90% quite so easily.

Does he have promo or is Adele falling?
