Official Albums Chart on 4/11/2022

Absolutely agree Thierry, the lads are back in top form. After so many yrs away the biz, a 22 position is not bad, but I'd love they had a top ten debut

Couldn't have said it any better Mark! THE BEATLES are so overrated and just just bad!! I agree with you about BLUE...

Can't help noticing a distinct theme to your comments on here: "Trash" "Rubbish" "Garbage" etc etc etc, all very indicative ... methinks perhaps you should get out more.

Who buys Beatles? Probably just the odd few hundred million fans who don't happen to agree with your opinion.

Thass juss wot I think n all.

Screaming at this. I didn't even notice it had fallen out of the chart completely

once a flop Bjork knock off album ALWAYS a flop Bjork try hard knock off album

It was a limited edition on vynil only you retarded, there's no more copies to buy, it was sold out from its released

still a flop, people could stream it but oh yeah, that album is pretty forgotten

Only vinyls are taken in as sales and nothing else.

What do you mean "there's no more copies to buy"? I've just checked Amazon and they're still selling it. In fact, it's been discounted to £24.41.

The album is a masterpiece, whether you like it or not

So, go ahead and buy it, you won't regret it

you because you say so? NME called it a trashy Bjork rip off lmao and it sold next to nothing

Sounds nothing like Bjork's music.

Discounted 3 months later as opposed to Kylie's measly two weeks on the chart. Disco was also thrown in the bargain bins a couple of weeks later too. lol

Yes but you think Madonna's so big would they be so discounted after 7 wks if she was so big as you say because two weeks ago they were discounted. Kylie's was only available on vinyl and that's all that counted and Madonna's on various editions and Disco wasn't discounted after 7 weeks. Kylie's last two studio albums have sold double the amount Madonna's last two studio albums sold in the UK. I know Kylie isn't famous everywhere it seems that you don't with Madonna. Madame X has only sold 62,000 copies and last one 28,000 so far.

Bit embarrassing that they use the Russian pirate version of the album. This is the *official* UK chart!!!!

Less embarrassing, more indicative of their incompetence! They're also showing it as a Re-Entry but ignoring that it spent 7 weeks at #1

They shouldn't combine 66 and 87. The 87 reissue was on CD and given a deliberately separate chart run in it's own right since new. It's a different release.

I disagree.
Its the same recordings - it does not matter whether it is vinyl, CD, digital download or streaming. All other artists are treated with combined chart runs.

I've been through every chart position on this site. That's not true. Many artists and chart runs are combined, many are not. Sometimes it's correct, sometimes not (i.e. there are times when the chart run belongs separate i and is correclty separated, other times when the run belongs together and is kept so, and situations where it is incorrect by being organised as the opposing scenario). For example, many of the recent(-ish) Rhino re-issues are combined on the end of the original run, even when there is another re-issue in between. All 3 should be separate issues. The distiction was much clearer in the print-era. This online era is riddled with errors, many originated by the OCC. Some have been there for decades and provably so with my old Guinness books.

It's not the same recordings that keep it in the same chart record, nor even the format but the 'issue'. As such, the 1987 issue was duly given an entry in it's own right, separate from the original. Similar examples include Elvis' GI Blues (1961 Original RD27192, reissued as SF5078 in 1975 - charted 1977) correctly separated, David Bowie Aladdin (1973 original RS1001, 1983 reissue INTS5067) incorrectly combined.
