AOMD can be signed off as a smash.

Looks like Hot To Go will be in my birthday Top 10 chart this Friday

great sales for the Snow Patrol album! London Grammar should get some discounts otherwise Sabrina could pip them to #2

 

Eminem was never do more than 5-10K in albums, his fanbase is not the one that buys physicals

Nice to see snow patrol secure for number 1, great too see around 5.5k sales since the Monday update.

Does physicals boosting AOMD void being counted as an increase in consumption to cancel out going on ACR?

I don't think so, I think it has to be an increase in its performance on streaming.

Thought bsck to black would do better since they put it on Netflix but I guess lots saw it already

The songs are doing a lot better on streaming than a couple of weeks ago even if the album hasn’t rebounded as much

Nice to see the physicals boosting Jade back in to the top 20.

Had to double check which thread I was reading then :P

21 if you count his re-issues though it's debatable whether you should.

 

After the Beatles with 18, Westlife are then tied with Ed Sheeran and Cliff Richard all on 14, while Madonna's on 13 and Take That on 12.

 

 

Course you shouldn't, just like Taylor's re-issues / versions shouldn't be counted either unless they outpeak the original :P (runs and hides while world war 3 breaks out)

Thees a big difference between a single just getting reissued and an album being rerecorded :lol:

As stated by many earlier... "it's the same songs"

Had to double check which thread I was reading then :P

Lol, moved the post to the streaming thread!

But… re-recordings are counted together in the chart as long as they are on the same record label…

Taylor should totally count and they actually do lol

I don’t really get this take. A reissue is the song with no changes being re uploaded or made a single again, but the re records are completely new recordings, the instrumentals, vocals, everything is completely new?

So if a song was re-recorded it would count as an extra hit for an artist? Sounds as ridiculous as counting Elvis' for a new barcode or whatever it was. :lol:

 

 

It's basically a cover version of her own song(s)? It's literally the same album by the same artist, it's a re-peak (or not as some of them were already #1) not a "new record" when it's the same songs.

 

It's one of those things people will always disagree on I guess, no huge Taylor fan is going to argue against it and very few non-fans will agree with it. I'm not a non-fan btw I like quite a few of her songs got into listening to more of her stuff after All too well was sent in the Buzzjack music contest (incredible song). :wub: If Spice Girls re-recorded Spice and it went to #1 I certainly wouldn't consider it another #1 album though. :lol:

I can see both sides on Taylor but I certainly think there’s a stronger case for the TVs being classed as separate #1 albums than Elvis having 2 #1 singles with exactly the same recording under a different catalogue number!

I don't think either of them have a case for an extra #1 for. Extra weeks at #1, re-peak at #1, a #1 in a different decade is all fair enough but an additional #1 when it's already been #1 is ridiculous. :teresa:
