The Album Chart - Extreme Fluidity with top positions
Considering the singles chart is pretty dull some weeks, with very little to no movement - the album chart seems to be the most fluid especially with the top positions. This week potentially sees Robbie Williams going from top to missing the top 40 potentially, and runner-up Ozzy Osbourne going from 2nd to nowhere. Throw in Yungblud suffering a huge drop from 1st to somewhere in the 70s. What is actually going on here? Are many of these sales front-loaded by fan bases of said acts? Are many of these acts who don't seem to have a look-in on the singles chart using the album chart to promote themselves? Or is this due to the lack of big name releases with albums?

iTunes Weekly Thread w/c 15th April 2022
Just seen the Cheeky Girls song - not bad. A bit of a retro 2000s pop vibe to it.

OMG I do! That was a decent Britney styled bop. Yeah this girl is just a basic singer with rich parents.

Will Ladbaby try five in a row next year?
I certainly hope not! England football team...you know what to do next year. Win us the World Cup and keep this off the top! I wouldn't mind 'Three Lions' as a Christmas #1 next year. Oh and Ed Sheeran, stop. Perhaps we need a smear campaign against him? Anyone got dirt on him?

What is the point of this Madonna remix? I know she's lost the plot but that's butchered that song. Sounds like it was made on a homemade production unit!

What was the last single you purchased on CD or cassette?
Last CD single has got to be "God Only Knows" which is a charity single for Children in Need back in 2014. Tesco thankfully stocked it. Non-charity it's got to be "Broken Arrow" by Pixie Lott. Last Cassette single, I think was "Shut Up!" by Kelly Osbourne and that's going back to 2002/3!!

Bargain Bin - Black Friday
I visited HMV Bristol City Centre today - there was a small section with Madge's current album £4,99 and her last album £2,99. I did pick up Toni Braxton's latest "Sex and Cigarettes" for £2,99 also "Colours" by Walking on Cars also for the same price. I also got "Mamma Mia" soundtrack for the recent movie for £2.99 as well!! I am not sure whether upstairs had any sales on, as I was with my sister, Mum and two kids under 6!
