It pleases my little, autistic brain.The certifications/sales are always more interesting than the charts now for me, I find more "new" music aka old songs/bubbling under stuff I've never heard before from these threads than I do from the charts. Glad you're continuing with this in 2026 Daniel, saves me going on the god awful BPI website 😁

Glad you're continuing with this in 2026 Daniel, saves me going on the god awful BPI website 😁They should really put them in both alphabetical order and from the highest to the lowest certifications. It's also a pet peeve of mine where they spell the name of an album or song incorrectly.
