6,973 is the Monday figure for The Essential - it was on more than double that last Wednesday

it’s a music week error then

I’m surprised RMI is back at No.1 I thought Olivia would hold up this week and does Taylor still have physicals to come?

Myles albums pretty solid so id be here for him getting a week at #1 but I think #2 is pretty good going and I think / hope it won’t completely drop off the chart.

I wonder if he’ll do a socials plug / push tomorrow to push the pure sales.

Sad to see that the Hard-Fi album probably won't make the top forty. It's their best release since Stars Of CCTV.

Ouch at Golden and Die With A Smile still on track to re-enter, fresh music please prevail!

Where going g up up up up its our moment

Tbf its the 1 year anniversary of the film and its had/has a 1 year anniversary limited release in cinema so I wouldn't be suprised if its also git a minor boost from that

If Stupid Song holds at number 2, then I hope Olivia Rodrigo can do a Taylor Swift

They’ve reduced the signed CD to £5 on Myles store, however doubt that will be enough to keep the #1.

I wouldn't even have that if I was paid £5!

It's definitely not better than Once Upon A Time In The West but yeah it definitely deserves to be doing better than it is. They've been promoting the hell out of it so I'm surprised it isn't contending for the top 10!

Lol which of the thousands of things that Taylor Swift has done do you want her to do?

I think there has been 47k physicals for Taylor over the past 2 weeks so if there is more to come it can’t be very many?

Didn't someone say Taylor's vinyls sold out way quicker than the CDs? In that case I can see her shift enough vinyls to push her back to the top

They’ve maxed the 3 formats though so assuming they won’t count?

Another physical dump

Rein Me In looks safe now, but Olivia has closed the gap on the Albums Charts. I think she'll make it to #1.

Ok, wouldn't have guessed that's what you meant.

Pretty sure Myles is gonna lose out to Olivia for #1. I don't know what else we can do as a nation to get rid of RMI. I give up at this point. #reinreinmeinin

The vinyls sold out in literally 2 minutes so id be very shocked if there a huge amount (if they hadn't already been dispatched) as she didnt even do a countdown for the vinyls

I’m not sure of the official rules, but many acts have had multiple formats counted when being released at different times.

Normally it’s reissue (‘Last Christmas’ is one obvious example), so I don’t know if there are examples of it happening early on in a song’s life, but knowing the OCC, they will find a way to allow 3 different formats each week.

Surely it's just the 3 biggest selling formats of any given week that count?

I'm surprised Olivia's team aren't popping out some physicals for Stupid Song or dropping additional versions and the price on iTunes. Sales are super low at the moment so she could easily nab the #1.
