BTS ,jungkook<3

ayee BTS the first kpop group on the UK album charts

First Korean entry into the UK albums charts!

wow! BTS Wings at 62!!!!

good week for rock music this week, with new entries for Green Day, Kaiser Chiefs, Feeder, Sum 41 and Placebo. makes a nice change from all the which is normally on the chart

It goes to show the album charts is better than the boring singles chart. Most of these artists can't get into the top 100 singles charts these days but albums are more important.

Great news from Barry and The Bee Gees!
Good to see him again at the top (almost) of the charts!
