MK has been insanely screwed over by occ not crediting remixes. His first “official” top 5 hit is technically his third as it was his remixes of Push The Feeling On, Look Right Through and My Head Is A Jungle that hit the top 5 in their respective years

Thats not the OCC fault, the label needs to request the credit change when it comes to remixes

Sparks’ to-date consumption of 954,574 units makes it the band’s 15th most-consumed track, despite the fact it was never a single, and didn’t register a ‘sale’ until OCC started to count streams in 2004.

What do they mean by this? Is it a typo and they mean 2014? But even then, surely it would got at least 1 download before then?

I'm surprised Rock That Body has only sold 400,000, after all this time. It probably did about 150,000 in 2010 alone.

They must mean digital consumption

Well it IS the OCC’s fault that that’s their system instead of them just crediting the more popular version (which they must be able to do now as I remember on the Sales report for the week Wellerman debuted, it stated the proportion of chart sales the remix got over the original cover) cause I don’t think the label cares too much most of the time, but it does lead to hilarious incidents like today when Jack Saunders told MK directly (iirc) that Dior was his first top 5 hit and a couple seconds later MK references his extremely popular mix of Push The Feeling On that WAS a top 5 hit! But a lot of people forget it was his CD mix that contained the iconic version as he’s not credited on the chart database. He’s only got about half the accredited uk year end hits that he should have because of this kind of thing

Thank god for ordinary finally going to acr 😭

Ugh why does Alex have to retake this week after a week at 2, either fall and then acr or stay at the top!! Chart history looks awful now. Sabrina looks like getting a second week by default next week.

That was actually a very good 2nd week for Pulp's album

Sad for Ordinary... It would be better if Ordinary was in ACR the same week as Pink Pony Club..etc.

3-2-38 for AJ Tracey’s studio albums is quite a shock - wonder where the listeners have all gone? I’m not expecting much from Aitch’s album out this week either.

It’s a similar situation for most UK rappers that blew up 5-6 years ago now.

That contradicts what Alan said last time (3 weeks ago?) about Ordinary avoiding ACR, as this would only be its 2nd week of decline if that was true. So it's possible he's talking about the following week and not next week.... I guess we'll be able to tell with Sunday's first look...

Oh actually hang pn, my mistake it was the 30th May, so yes 6th, 13th and 20th June it would be 3 weeks of declines, my mistake...

God help Dave if he ever returns

Dave seems to be a lot more respected than Aitch, AJ Tracey et al, I'd expect him to manage a sizeable hit when he's next back

Update for Sabrina's Short N Sweet:

712,347 Short N’ Sweet (557,705 sales-equivalent streams, 150,495 physical copies and 4,147 downloads)

Absolutely remarkable 2nd week sales for Pulp! And rightly so. Went to the tour this week and it was brilliant.
