Sour Candy

OCC has mind of its own with resets but their GH will definitely be #1 album all summer long.

Oh that's a nice increase!!

People might not even know or care that Benson has a new album out. He has been releasing new music / promoting singles constantly so an album hardly makes a difference at this point.

Reckless went triple platinum, but he wasn't a big single seller in the 80s.

The album strategy is weird because she had the fanbase from LM to sell the album even after 1 single. Instead they chose to "build the hype" for 14 months.

Both were down over 150k on Spotify weekly so it's very unlikely that they can survive.

The album will definitely climb/stabilise on charts as there will be loads of attention to come from the tour to Grammys. But it is a bit frustrating that they haven't been able to provide third good streamer after album release.

The top 20 is actually pretty fresh right now - the average number of weeks is 13.3 - and Beautiful Things is a big outlier - without it the number would be around 10.

Thought Benson Boone's album would do better on AM.

UK Albums Chart 66 62 350 The Fame, Lady Gaga (peak: 1)

Pretty random reset for Sparks. It's not even up in streams week-on-week and has peaked higher on Spotify that it's now.

Maybe the warm weather restricts this type of music a bit. People are listening to songs like I Ain't Worried, Dakota and Hey Soul Sister (based on Spotify chart).
