Notes

So, on the singles front, The Darkness monopolise the top 3 with tracks from their chart-topping album Dreams on Toast. They would have had more entries in the top 20 were it not for the 3-track per album restriction I've now imposed. The introduction of this rule, also means one of their tracks, "Walking Through Fire" has been replaced with the resurging first single from the album "The Longest Kiss" after a 25-week absence, which also comfortably out-peaks its original #16 peak back in November.

Albums-wise, last week's #1 drops to #2. A new rule has been imposed on this chart as well. Any albums released within the last 12 months, which are not merely remasters with identical tracklistings of previous iterations, that I have bought over the week leading up to the chart cut-off point (EOD Thursday), will automatically receive a week at the top (tie-breaks for multiple buys are broken by their stream count). Had the rule not been in place, The Darkness, who hit the top last week due to the 14 copies I bought, would have been on top this week due to being my most played album of the 4-week tracking period. Alas, the new rule means my 4th most-played album during said tracking period, shoots straight to the top- Elton John and Brandi Carlile's Who Believes In Angels, of which I bought the CD/DVD and tri-colour vinyl editions.

Hi Tim!

Nice to see "Smoke The Pain Away" debut in the top 20.

Great chart!

Take care.
