This is what happens with this SPS...and major singles benefiting albums. It's a little skewed if you ask me.

That's why I feel they should follow the UK way of not counting the 2 most popular songs of the album to tabulate the popularity of the whole album

Abel WON

Well, ~55k isn't usually enough to get you a #1. Just a quiet market atm

[The Best One Yet]

John doing great with only 4 songs. 

[fridayteenage]

A bit tired of 30somethingk as the #1 seller.

[Chainsmoker]

5 weeks @ #1 for Starboy
