And if you like, predict their first week sales! Note that the Kylie live album is only digital/streaming, no physicals in that week.

Some pretty major dips for Taylor Swift too! Particularly folklore, last week midweek #46 but out this week.

Album chart is wild, but it's interesting to see which artists are particularly reliant on Spotify. For instance Tate McRae - So Close to What being midweek #96 today (its lowest position in its 29 week chart run so far is #36). It's always been evident that sombr gets the most support from Spotify; his album's first two weeks in the chart is 10-11, third week midweek today being #47.

Technically it could belong to 2016 too! Arguably more so than 2015 honestly. It was sent to US radio in January 2016, making its release date 19th January 2016 - despite starting out as a promotional single on 14th October 2014. Its music video premiered on TV on 31st December 2015 and was released to YouTube on 1st January 2016. A three year spanning bop! Of the 30 songs I voted for, the worst performing here is Blonde - All Cried Out. Happy that Run Away with Me is highly regarded after a decade. A classic. Interesting to see Sigala - Easy Love rather low down here considering that it's a BJSC winner.

A banger is guaranteed

Here's how Ed's albums from the 2020s performed in the first week: = 139,107 - Total 78,263 - CDs 25,286 - Streaming 19,294 - Downloads 11,644 - Vinyl 4,620 - Cassettes - 76,263 - Total 41,122 - CDs 14,255 - Streaming 8,124 - Vinyl 7,792 - Downloads 4,970 - Cassettes 'Autumn Variations' 30,016 - Total 16,027 - CDs 6,121 - Vinyl 5,680 - Streaming 2,188 - Downloads -- Format breakdown: CDs: 78,263 (56.26%) = 41,122 (53.92%) - 16,027 (53.39%) Autumn Variations Vinyl: 11,644 (8.37%) = 8,124 (10.65%) - 6,121 (20.39%) Autumn Variations Streaming: 25,286 (18.18%) = 14,255 (18.69%) - 5,680 (18.92%) Autumn Variations Downloads: 19,294 (13.87%) = 7,792 (10.22%) - 2,188 (7.29%) Autumn Variations Cassettes: 4,620 (3.32%) = 4,970 (6.52%) - -- Ed's been consistent with contribution from CDs, with over half of the first week sales coming from that format. Perhaps that will continue with Play? Streaming contribution has also remained remarkably consistent. Vinyl has never been his strongest suit (although to be fair, all three of these albums reached #1 in the vinyl chart). Interestingly the percentage contribution from vinyl has increased with every release. Considering how his previous albums have performed on vinyl, it is surprising that his team/Blood Records anticipated that level of demand for a picture disc! Personally I would be surprised if Ed can't at least match or slightly exceed '-', so I'm imagining 80,000 minimum. Now that I've said that with confidence, watch it come no where close

The Cardi B trial... she's so funny 😭 Did anyone else follow it? She won the trial in the end! There's new formats with courtroom meme pictures lol
