Another maxing out of the top 3 tracks and scoring a 4th week at #1, Confessions II is now in my top 50 most consumed albums since my Last FM account started in March 2010. It will take some time before it's threatening Femme Fatale though... As the charts are based on rolling 4-week play counts, early indications suggest Madonna will remain at #1 on the albums front for another couple of weeks at least. The biggest threat to #1 on the Tracks chart looks to be a return for Love Sensation. But, we'll find out for definite next week.

Giving little time for streaming much else, reaching the lower end of the album chart took giving them barely any attention. Even the terrible new Shania Twain album, which I gave up on after a few songs, managed to enter at #7. To think this is the same person who gave us The Woman In Me, Come On Over and Up! Proof to me that, sadly, she's an artist who needs to stick with a problematic producer for a decent body of work (see Katy Perry)...

Hi Tim!

Nice to see "Danceteria" at the top and the debuts for "SS26" and "Purple".

Great chart!
Take care.

It is Olivia vs. Madonna. Maybe Ariana can change this a bit next week?

Hey Tim!

I still a bit eh on Madonna doing so well her bit now that I understand you're using a rolling 4 week period it makes sense. I am using a rolling 5 week period myself. I feel it makes my chart look more authentic if that makes sense.

Wink wink is of course fantastic. I've listened to the album but there isn't much there to love for me unfortunately so I'll be charting the singles only.

Fab stuff 🎉
