April 25, 201610 yr They're charting separately, although it seems The Hits 1 and The Hits 2 are low on stock because the former is low Top 200 and the latter is not charting. I do find that a bit odd especially as "The Hits 1" is in the current Top 20 Amazon best sellers.
April 25, 201610 yr When you look at the top 100 there is quite a few Prince tracks, so more will eventually fall away by the end of the week, probably left with 7 to 9 tracks in the top 100.
April 25, 201610 yr I do find that a bit odd especially as "The Hits 1" is in the current Top 20 Amazon best sellers. The case may be that it's on the budget chart and the version charting is downloads only.
April 25, 201610 yr The case may be that it's on the budget chart and the version charting is downloads only. Could be an explanation but the CD (£5.30) is selling at more than the compilation at number 1 (£4.50) so not sure why it would be eligible for the Budget Chart.
April 25, 201610 yr If Work sticks around in the Top 10 again this week after Prince dying and new Beyonce, I don't think it will ever leave. :D
April 25, 201610 yr ^ Work is down at #16 and unlikely to crawl back to the top 10 right now. Meghan set to miss the top 10 again ffs :drama: it better make it next week!! Could be an explanation but the CD (£5.30) is selling at more than the compilation at number 1 (£4.50) so not sure why it would be eligible for the Budget Chart. Is it not based on dealer price rather than selling price?
April 25, 201610 yr Is it not based on dealer price rather than selling price? Yes, fair point although still doesn't explain why it is low Top 200.
April 25, 201610 yr Yes, fair point although still doesn't explain why it is low Top 200. The case may be that it's on the budget chart and the version charting is downloads only. The budget chart doesn't consider downloads so they're allowed to chart officially.
April 25, 201610 yr Author Based on how popular the cherry-picks are, I'd be surprised now if Lemonade wasn't #1 come Friday
April 25, 201610 yr The budget chart doesn't consider downloads so they're allowed to chart officially. Got it now :) thanks for the clarification.
April 25, 201610 yr Very impressive for Prince occupying the top 5! :o It's a shame he doesn't have a definitive greatest hits collection because sales are being split between the two and it could cost him the top spot with Beyoncé fast approaching. I know i'll be raving and looning over 'Lemonade' if it's anything like 'BEYONCÉ' but this is Prince's week so she can wait :( REALLY ecstatic that 'Purple Rain' is looking to make the top 10 too and fabulous to the see the album of the same name top 5 in the mids :wub: :wub: 'Sign 'O' the Times' too <3
April 25, 201610 yr Don't think Beyonce will make it to number one this week, question is will she next week when she's up against Drake which Itunes will no doubt be plugging a lot
April 25, 201610 yr Don't think Beyonce will make it to number one this week, question is will she next week when she's up against Drake which Itunes will no doubt be plugging a lot Drake isn't fit to kiss Beyonce's ass!
April 25, 201610 yr Don't think Beyonce will make it to number one this week, question is will she next week when she's up against Drake which Itunes will no doubt be plugging a lot I think it's a given. You're underestimating her.
April 25, 201610 yr is the physical version of Lemonade also out in the coming days? that could make a difference... EDIT: not out til 6 May according to Hits Daily Double
April 26, 201610 yr Years & Years down to #50 :drama: Was really hoping this would go Top 20 officially and hang around for a while
April 26, 201610 yr ^It's no longer on sale, that's why the drop if Formation remains around #2 on itunes selling half of Drake for the rest of the week, that might be enough to be top 40 come Friday Edited April 26, 201610 yr by Bjork
