If Apple has The Beatles on their streaming service then it pretty much already has the upper hand on all the streaming services, several other bands as well who are not available to stream anywhere else such as AC/DC

Ed Sheeran could finally be out of the album top 10 this week

I wonder if Willie Nelson/Merle Haggard's album will chart, also it's amazed me how The Darkness have somehow remained to be popular on the album charts, their last album also made the top 10 I believe

Smart move by ASAP Rocky pushing forward his album by a week on what is a quiet week for major releases, he wouldn't have had any chance of being number one a week Sunday

Half term this week so lot's of people will be seeing Pitch Perfect 2 this week which means that Jessie J song could do well throughout the week rather then just the beginning of it

As for the musical guests on tv this week, Florence and The Machine on Graham Norton show, that will probably have more affect on their album sales then the single though

I love Taylor but Bad Blood is such an average song, only doing so well because of the video

Curious to how well Faith No More do with their new album

Lucy Spraggan is only 17? She's 11 on Itunes and that's when you include compilations etc

Wow never Paul Simon being number one, he was 4 or 5 in the midweeks

Surely everyone has those Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith albums now, boring drop 3 in album charts

Hope Lucy Spraggan can make the top 40

So global releases start on Friday July 10th, so does that mean there won't be any albums out on July 6th or will have two lot's of releases out in the same week, should be interesting

James Bay is going to do a Sam Smith, George Ezra, Ed Sheeran, Hozier isn't he, probably stay up for the top part of the album charts for a year

Yup and only 2 days of physical sales, as the physical doesn't usually come out to Weds

So all change in the Summer

Phil Collins and Def Leppard are due one.

New Boz Scaggs album is now listed as coming out on the 30th on amazon

How an earth is Sam Smith back at number one, are there people who have never heard of him until they watch one of these shows and then buy his album or does he have fans who own dozens of copies

New Muse single out later today, so no doubt that will shoot up the charts pretty quickly

THe new spotify desktop doesn't seem to have the album charts anymore

If anyone does take over the new release schedule, I could help with albums relases

You've done a fantastic Jon, this is always something I'v liked to have a go at, but to be honest while i'm pretty good at keeping track on new album releases, I'm not to good with new single release, especially all the dance songs

Nah that's not the issue because it was showing up in grey for me as well and I didn't download it, today it's showing up in white and has leapt into the top 20

Seems similar to an issue with Heartbeat Song last week, it was showing up in grey for me and was around 50 on the spotify chart, this week it's now showing in white and leapt up to number 15
