Thanks for answering my Questions, ¡bré! Simon, (Suedehead2) - As always your Chart Commentary is very informative & very well written.

QUESTIONS -- Could someone please tell me how many Weeks the Sam Smith Album has spent in the Top 5? And the X Album by Ed Sheeran? How many Top 10 Weeks, (& Top 5), has the George Ezra Album had? Thanks. QUEEN -- The OCC are giving Greatest Hits by Queen 613 Chart Weeks, this Week. Does anyone know how they get that Total? It is far too high for its Top 75 Weeks & far too low for its Top 100 Weeks. THE UK'S TOP 6 MOST CHARTING ALBUMS The W/E 17th January Chart is one of the very rare occasions, that all 6 Albums are in the Top 100 at the same time. Queen at No.35, ABBA at No.45, Bob Marley & The Wailers at No.61, Fleetwood Mac at No.79, Meat Loaf at No.91, & Pink Floyd at No.100. So I thought that I'd show where they now are, regarding UK Chart Weeks. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ LIST A…..ALBUMS WITH THE MOST TOP 75 WEEKS 1)...

It has done so in the latest Chart - W/E 17th January. But 'only' 438 of its 500 Weeks are Top 75 Positions. The other 62 Weeks are No.76 to No.100 Positions from the 1980's. Just as 'only' 417 of Rumours 529 Weeks are Top 75 Weeks. The other 112 Weeks are No.76 to No.100 Weeks from the 1980's. LIST B…..UK ALBUMS WITH THE MOST CHART WEEKS 1)...

Hadji - Thanks for spotting that I'd missed out Rihanna's 1st, (of 3), 'Double Top' Feats. The one from June 2007. I knew that she'd done it 3 times, but I missed it out, when I compiled the List of Acts who've achieved it more than once. I've now added her 2007 'Double Top' to my Post that has that List in it.

Apparently the 2014 Winner's Single will be the OneRepublic Single from 2013 - 'Something I Need'. It was not released in the UK or USA, but it was a Top 10 Hit in Australia & New Zealand.

In today's 'The Sun' Simon Cowell said that if he saw Andrea performing in a Club he would not sign him. That he lacks something. He called him 'Too predictable'. He added that he 'Would not be a fit' at his Label. (That Andrea would not fit in there, in other words). As the 'Competition' is still on-going I thought that it was a very inappropriate thing to say. After all, it is supposed to be a 3 way Final Weekend. It is as if Simon already knows that Fleur will win, so he sees no reason why he cannot say negative things about Andrea in the UK Press.

Although Shayne Ward recorded 'That's My Goal' in 2005, it was actually offered to Westlife in 2003. Westlife rejected it, as they felt that it was very weak.

Over-all Leona Lewis has actually been the most long term success from The X Factor. She's had UK Top 5 Singles from 2006 to 2013.

I got my Email about Dave going to Australia in November, & I have not looked at it since then. I've just re-read it & I see that it was not Jason Scott who was asked about Dave. It was Richard Todd, a DJ who presents the Classic Retro Countdown. (Dave Produced that Radio 'Show', as well as Jason Scott's Radio 'Show'). Here is what the November 27th Email said. (It is from a 'Contact' of Dave's from the Pop Scene Site). I have no idea how true the 'Australian Story' is. Apparently Dave had/has Family there. (I'm just telling you what I've been told. My real name is Colin). "Hi Colin: I have been in contact with Richard Todd, who presents the online Classic Retro Countdown, that Dave used to produce until last year. According to him, Dave went to Australia about 6 months ago (I know he had family out there) and hasn't been heard of since. I think if something would have happened Richard would know, but it's all very mysterious".

It is still not certain if Dave Taylor has actually died. He used to Produce the Ultimate UK Chart, which is presented by Jason Scott, on Wire Radio. Someone who used to know Dave recently made enquiries with Wire Radio as to what became of him. He was told that Dave went to Australia several Months ago & 'Has not been heard from since'. So he may well be alive - in Australia. (Unless he was only pretending to go there). Therefore he might have died in the UK or Australia. Or he may still be alive in the UK or Australia. It is all a big mystery.

Robbie - I also think that the 385,000 Sales for 'Babe' is too low. especially as it got a Platinum Disc on 1st January 1994. I contacted The OCC & suggested that they'd missed out some of its 1994 Sales. They are standing by their 385,000 Total, & are saying that nothing has been left out. Their reply to me:, "Those figures for Babe are the latest we have, based on all available sales data". 'Sure' -- I recall that Gary Barlow thought it was as brilliant as 'Back For Good'. He could not understand why it was 'only' no.1 for 2 Weeks. I regard it as the weakest & worst of all 12 of Take That's UK No.1 Singles. No where near as great as 'Back For Good'.

NOTE -- Please read carefully. I'm not saying that The OCC have 'forgotten' any Take That Albums. I'm saying that they have made a decision to only count their Studio Albums. It is very misleading to count only their No.1 Studio Albums. As far as I'm concerned, (& many other people), Take That will have their 7th No.1 Album on Sunday, & their 29th Week at No.1 in the Album Chart. Added to their 29 No.1 Singles Weeks = 58 Weeks at No.1 in the UK. The 7th most for any Act. Just behind Madonna, who is in 6th place - 29 Singles Weeks + 30 Albums Weeks = 59 No.1 Weeks. The OCC are saying that '!!!' is Take That's 6th UK No.1 Album & their 6th No.1 in a row. "Take That could score their sixth UK Number 1 album this Sunday. The trio’s new collection III is currently in pole position on today’s Official Chart Update with impressive sales of 96,000 at the mid-week stage. If it remains at the top until Sunday, it will mark the band’s sixth consecutive chart-topping LP". 1)... It is their 7th No.1 Album. For some reason The OCC are not counting 'Greatest Hits', (1996), as a No.1 Album for the Group. 2)... Nor are they counting 'Never Forget - The Ultimate Collection', which was a 2005 No.2 Album. 3)... Nor are they counting 'The Greatest Day - The Circus Live' which was a 2009 No.3 Album. 4)... They are just counting Take That's Studio Albums. 5)... Once you start doing that you open a can of worms. It means that 'One' cannot be counted as The Beatles 15th UK No.1 Album. Nor can they have the 9 No.1 Weeks from it - leaving them with 165 No.1 Weeks & not 174. 6)... Queen cannot have 'Greatest Hits' & 'Greatest Hits II' counted towards their No.1 Albums. So they get 7 No.1 Albums & 12 No.1 Weeks, rather than 9 No.1 Albums & 21 No.1 Weeks. 7)... ABBA cannot have 9 No.1 Albums & 57 No.1 Weeks. They only have 5 No.1 Albums. 'Greatest Hits', 'Greatest Hits Vol. 2', 'The Singles', & 'Gold' cannot be counted. Nor can the 24 No.1 Weeks from those 4 'Hits' Albums. So ABBA get left with 33 No.1 Weeks. 8)... This is what happens when people make up new 'Rules' as to what is & is not a No.1 Album for an Act. It is far better to keep it simple. A No.1 Album for an Act is any of their Albums that go to No.1, be they Studio Albums, Hits Albums, or Live Albums.

I've now added some 'Notes' to my Post about the Acts with the 'Most UK Number 1 Singles'. There is a German fellow, who works out the All Time UK Singles Acts. He actually counts The Jordanaires as being an Act in their own right. He gives them Points for every Elvis Presley Hit that they are on. Making them the 3rd 'All Time Singles Act' in the UK. With The Beatles in 4th place. Beaten only by Cliff Richard, (2nd), & Elvis Presley, (1st). He does the same for the USA Singles Chart, & they are the 4th All Time Act in that List. Beaten only by Rihanna, (3rd), Lil Wayne(!), (2nd), & Elvis Presley, (1st).

BrasselsSprouts - I'm aware that JLS had 5 UK No.1's as JLS & a 6th as a credited Act on the 2011 X Factor Finalists No.1, 'Wishing On A Star'. However, I match my Lists to the 'Rules' that The OCC use. They have decided not to count 'Wishing On A Star' as a JLS No.1. They have also decided that One Direction cannot be credited with it either. Even though they too have a separate credit on it. So The OCC gives JLS 5 UK No.1 Singles & they give One Direction 3 UK No.1 Singles.

As 'These Days' by Take That is their 12th UK No.1 Single & their 29th No.1 Singles Week, I've up-dated these 2 Lists. NOTES A)... Although both JLS & One Direction have their own separate credits on the 2011 X Factor Finalists No.1, ('Wishing On A Star'), The OCC do not count it as a 6th No.1 for JLS & a 4th No.1 for One Direction. I have decided to follow the same 'Rule'. B)... The SHADOWS -- They would be 3rd= in List 1 if their 7 No.1 Singles with Cliff Richard were to be added to their 5 No.1 Singles as The Shadows. But The OCC told me a few Years ago that they do not combine their Hits with Cliff Richard with those of The Shadows. So I've followed their 'Rule'. C)... Which is why The Shadows are 11th= in List 2. If their 28 No.1 Weeks with Cliff Richard, were added to their 16 No.1 Weeks as The Shadows, they would be 2nd in List 2 -- with 44 No.1 Weeks.

The Band Aid 30 Single has sold 4,700 since the Thursday Mid Weeks. So, it is now down to less than 5,000 Sales a day. The Take That Single has sold 5,100 since the Thursday Mid Weeks. 'Four' by One Direction has sold 7,700 since the Thursday Mid Weeks.

Mango - I doubt if 'The Public' have ordered 250,000 copies of the Band Aid CD from ASDA. But, if they have, then it does not mean that 250,000 different people have done so. The biggest UK Charity CD's often have a lot of people buying several copies, to give as gifts to family & friends. So the 250,000 copies could be 125,000 people ordering it twice, or 50,000 people ordering 5 copies each. And any combination of people buying multiple copies. I'm sure that some people will order as many as 10 or 12 copies of it. Anyhow, the 250,000 Band Aid CD claim is certainly true - Band Aid 30 have acknowledged it, & ASDA's £1 Million donation, in their Twitter account. https://twitter.com/BandAid30/status/537214724568805376 Soon we will see if the CD really will actually sell those 250,000 copies in ASDA stores.

The Band Aid 250,000 CD 'Pre-Sales' claims appear to be genuine. Band Aid has already acknowledged ASDA's £1 Million donation, (from the 250,000 CD's), on its Twitter account:, https://twitter.com/BandAid30/status/537214724568805376 Soon we will see if the CD really will actually sell those 250,000 copies in ASDA stores.

According to what I've read around The Internet today, the CD version of the Band Aid 30 Single has 250,000 'Pre-Sales' in ASDA Stores. As a result ASDA has already donated the cash from them - £1 Million - to Band Aid. (At around £4 a copy for the CD). The question is - have people really ordered 250,000 copies of the CD from ASDA, or are 250,000 copies what ASDA thinks it will sell in their stores? The 2 things are not the same. (The first is a more or less guaranteed Sale, & the second is an assumption & an estimate by ASDA).

Fiesta - If 'These Days' reaches No.1 it will be Take That's 12th UK No.1 Single - not their 13th. They had 8 from 1993 to 1996. Then 3 more since their 2006 'Come Back' - 'Patience', 'Shine, & 'Greatest Day'. 'Rule The World' & 'The Flood' were No.2 Hits.

The Robson & Jerome version of 'Unchained Melody' sold so well & so fast because they were 2 of the most popular cast members of the ITV Series 'Soldier Soldier', which was on TV at that time. (1995). They sang the Song on the Drama, & a great many people urged them to release it as a Single. They did, & it ended up selling well over a Million, & stayed at No.1 for 7 Weeks. On the back of it all, their 1st Album sold over 2 Million in the UK & they had 2 further No.1 Singles & 1 more No.1 Album.

As Do They Know It's Christmas is No.1 for the 4th time, & has its 13th Week at No.1, I compiled this List. NOTE -- As you can see - Robson & Jerome have managed to be on each of the Top 2 Songs in this List!

A German guy has worked out the biggest UK Singles, since November 1952 - based on Points in the Top 75. He combines the Points of all 3 previous Band Aid Singles, & has it in 15th place. It will move up to 11th place when he adds in the 4th version's No.1 Points on Sunday. It is silly really. It is OK to say that it has been No.1 in 4 versions, but as the recordings & most of the Artists on them, are not the same, their Points should not be combined. They are not the same record. Technically the latest version is not even, (mostly), the same Song, as the lyrics have been re-written. It is just the same tune. A very tenuous reason to add all the versions together.

As 4 of the all Time 'Most Chart Weeks' Albums are inside this Week's Top 75 I thought that I'd Post 2 up-dated Lists.
