A new year and a new thread! And before we get down to business a few links and some background information......

The Irish chart is revealed online every Friday afternoon and covers sales between Friday and Thursday. Since the beginning of 2007 the main sales chart has included all physical and download sales as in the UK. Also following the UK's lead streaming data was added with effect from the chart dated w/e 10th July 2014 and from w/e 6th July 2018 video streams were also added. The chart also uses the 3 songs per artist rule that was introduced in the UK following the influx of Ed Sheeran singles in 2017. The main charts are the singles chart (a Top 100), the artist albums chart (a Top 100) and the compilation album chart (a Top 30). These can be found at www.irma.ie. A new Homegrown Chart was launched on 7th June 2019 . This highlights the biggest tracks by Irish acts each week based on combined sales across physical, download and streaming and is a Top 20. To prevent the chart getting clogged up there is a 1 song per artist rule similar to the one on the main Top 100. A weekly airplay chart is compiled by Neilsen but since the middle of 2008 this has been unavailable to the public.

During 2009 IRMA also started publishing the Indie Album Chart - initially a Top 20 but this was reduced to a Top 10 after a couple of weeks, returning to a Top 20 again in April 2010 which has continued to be published. During 2012 IRMA briefly published a Top 10 Classical albums chart. With effect from 1st January 2017 Chart-Track have been replaced as chart compilers by the Official Charts Company. Initially the Chart-Track site continued to hold the various archive charts but these disappeared in 2018. The OCC site carries the Top 50 singles, Top 50 artist albums and Top 10 compilation albums along with the Homegrown Chart.

The official Irish chart was first broadcast on RTE Radio on Sunday 4th June 1978 – an hour long “Top Twenty” (also featuring Irish tracks appearing between 21 and 30) beginning at 2.00pm and presented by Jimmy Greeley. A year later, national pop station RTE Radio 2, later renamed 2FM, began - the Irish equivalent of Radio 1 in the UK! – and a two-hour weekly chart show has appeared in its schedules for the vast majority of the four decades since then. Originally aired at 2.00pm on Sundays, in April 2020 the show was extended to three hours, usually between 7pm and 10pm on Fridays - and, after some initial experimentation, the first two hours are now generally used to play most of the official Top 30 singles, then around fifteen of the Top 20 Homegrown hits are played in the last hour.

Nowadays, the show is occasionally reduced in length or removed entirely to accommodate programming regarded as more important (mainly commentary on live sports events) – but it had also disappeared completely for most of 1980 and for several weeks in early 1992, on both occasions due to industrial disputes. Later, in August 2006, it was reduced to one hour, featuring not very much more than the top ten – and then it disappeared completely in January 2010. While there had been many stand-in presenters over nearly thirty years, the regular presenter throughout almost all of that period was Larry Gogan – the only other regulars were Tony Fenton (May 1999 until January 2003) and Rick O’Shea (August 2006 until March 2007).

Apart from a brief shift to starting an hour earlier (from June until September 2019) the show remained in a new regular slot of 8pm - 10pm on Fridays when it unexpectedly returned in March 2014. It was presented until September 2015 by Mark McCabe (the man behind the long running number one single "Maniac 2000”- which actually re-entered the chart in a week when he was the presenter!). He was then temporarily replaced by Alan McQuillan - who had been the regular stand-in, and would continue in this role until his death in January 2019. But the regular presenter since December 2015 has been Blathnaid Treacey - whose claim to fame is that as a child she appeared in the hit Irish soap opera “Glenroe” (Mick Lally, who played her character’s father, reached number one in the Irish charts back in 1990 with a song featured in the show, "The Byroad To Glenroe").

For well over a decade – including the whole of the period during which the official chart couldn’t be heard on 2FM – various regional stations broadcasted "Top 40 Oifigiúil na hÉireann" (“Ireland's Official Top 40”). This weekly programme was presented entirely in the Irish language by Daithi O'Daibhin, and was produced by a company called Digital Audio Productions - which ironically was set up by former 2FM presenter Dusty Rhodes. For several years, Spin 103.8 and Spin Southwest aired a different version of the show, "Hit 30 na hÉireann" which used the same chart and had the same presenter, but only covered the top thirty – however, from 31st August 2014, this show was dropped and these stations also aired "Top 40 Oifigiúil na hÉireann".

In July 2019, at much the same time as 2FM rebranded “The National Chart Show” as “The Official Chart Show”, "Top 40 Oifigiúil na hÉireann" ceased broadcasting. Its replacement, with new presenter Louise Cantillon, reuses the "Hit 30 na hÉireann" title - but it doesn’t use the official Irish chart, Most weeks, all of the “Hit 30” - whatever that might be - are played except for the tracks at number 24 and 14. And, despite what Wikipedia may inaccurately claim, it is currently aired on these stations, at the following times:

From the start of 2017 the Top 50 Singles, Top 50 Artist albums, Top 30 compilations and DVD charts have been published on www.officialcharts.com. Also worth checking out is www.irishcharts.ie which contains a fully searchable singles database going right back to 1962 when the first recognised chart was compiled (though there was a Top 10 published regularly from 1959). It is restricted to Top 30 hits but seems to be updated on a regular basis. This site also contains various other facts and figures and does have a certifications section though this is rather limited in content. Sales info is extremely hard to come by for Ireland and the only details that seem to appear are those mentioned from time to time in the chart-track commentary. No certifications are published in Ireland until the entire list of possible certifications for the previous year been submitted and verified. This list is published only once a year and refers always to trade deliveries made up to the end of the previous calendar year. Therefore, the 2017 certifications were published in 2018 - the 2018 certifications were published in 2019 etc. These were normally published along with the complete year end charts in the Hot Press Yearbook which is published annually. However the most recent editions dropped this section completely, presumably down to costs.

Starting from the begining of January 2017 the OCC has been carrying the Top 50 Singles, Top 50 Artist Albums, Top 10 Compilations and the Top 50 DVD chart. The certifications can be found on the irishcharts website at the following link www.irishcharts.ie/awards/index.htm

Many pre-2000 singles charts were posted on the UKMix forums back in 2006. Normally at this point I post the links here but in the past they have had a habit of becoming non working links. A while back we were able to create a sticky thread on UK Mix which contains all known links so if you want to click here >> www.ukmix.org/forum/chart-discussion/chart-analysis/10872551-irish-chart-discussions-index <<< you should be able to find what you need. Any broken links now can be fixed in seconds so if you are having any problems accessing anything let me know. For any Haven or Buzzjack members I will add links to the annual threads in the respective 2025 discussions when I get a chance.

No real surprises as many of the Christmas songs leave the chart although many people seemed to be enjoying them after the big day as there are still quite a few in the Top 100 making up just over one fifth of the full list.

Somewhat bizarrely the only NEW entry on the artist album chart is Bing Crosby's Ultimate Christmas which arrives at 51.

All 3 of last week's new entries in the album chart (all Top 20 positions) have dropped out of the Top 100 this week. And joing them is The Essential Michael Jackson which was enjoying an impressive run having spent the last 154 weeks in the Top 100 (the majority of those being in the Top 40). However the bizarre rules governing which album "sales" are attributed to means that it drops out from number 18 to be replaced by Number Ones which returns at 12.

Apologies for the late posting this week. It was a case of if something can go wrong it will. First up on Saturday night I had the singles added onto the spreadsheet but the checksum figures I have added were indicating that there was an error somewhere. Normally it's a quick fix with a typo to be corrected but this time I was having no luck. In the end I gave up and decided to start from scratch on Sunday evening. That didn't happen. During the NI Hit 40 broadcast I discovered I had run out of insulin and I had an unplanned 70 mile trip to a relative to pick up a spare that I had left with them for emergencies. Having nearly got everything sorted I discovered an error on the artist album chart. Back in week 8 U2 were at 97 and Michael Jackson was at 99. The following week I placed Jacko at 77 instead of U2 and in subsequent weeks he had been listed instead of them. Hopefully that is everything present and correct now.

CLASSIC COUNTDOWN
09/05/26 1995 https://www.rte.ie/radio/gold/clips/11793657/

Some miscountng of weeks by IRMA on the singles chart this week with songs re-entering but only being credited with 1 week.

They also have numbers 2 and 4 on the Music DVD chart with a week apiece but given the release dates of both I'm guessing that they are returning.
