Ed is so big that his album tracks are bigger than some singles the week he releases his album. I don't see a problem This would happen with a lot of artists, multiple times a year, invalidating many of the years lists. It's supposed to be a singles chart.

Doesn't seem right to me tho - 17 of the top 20 spots? It's a big week for him obviously, but he doesn't really have 18 of the hottest 20 singles at the moment. Singles are different from songs in a way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they didn't have the sales/ or songs on spotify. Well he has 18 of the most streamed +sold tracks in top 20, they are the biggest singles/songs w/e we call it. But probably not the week after.

Starkboy Posted March 6, 2017 Author Share Posted March 6, 2017 Only Adele could have done something similar with Spotify. But Ed is a bigger streaming force than her + Ed songs did way better than 25 songs on iTunes UK. So the Spotify difference would have been even bigger. So yeah, he's the only one who can do this.

so_fetch Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 People even thinking hat he can top Adele's ??? #delusionals Let's not go there please, coz Ed's numbers are already very impressive. Having said that, I think he is the male counterpart of Adele in the UK not US. No one can touch Adele in this generation, not even close, even Beyonce.
