71    LIGHTS

Emeli Sande...what a fad

There is only a total of 6 albums from 2016-2019 in the top 100. 

 

I think it has a lot to do with that terrible rule down-weighing streaming of the most popular songs.

how is that a terrible rule it's the only accurate way so that the success of 1 single doesn't inflate an album on the charts. The whole album actually has to be streamed for it to count. 

 

OT: Gaga snapped twice

Because how many people buy an album, listen to it entirely just once maybe twice and then after that replay their favorites for the rest of the time?

 

I can see why they'd wanna downweigh streams and try to push entire album consumption, but it's honestly just pointless because people who buy albums also rarely listen to them front to back majority of the time so counting that as a full consumption while trying to limit people who do the same in another form is questionable. Hit singles will always fuel albums. There's a reason why 99% of artists best-selling albums... are the ones with their biggest hits. It's also a reason why the top-selling albums of the year usually always are ones with the biggest hits of the year.

LOUD

 

Also I didnt notice Whitney at 52?!? UK loves that album
