Unholy dropped a lot, is that a thing in the UK since it’s like 2 months old now? 

[wehavetostan]

The ACR rule kicks in after 10 weeks exactly

That's way too soon lol. But I guess it protects the chart from #1 residencies.

The dumbest rule in the history of charts.

 

 

 

What is that Ed song at #20?

Yeah, they added that rule during Despacito's run nn

What if your song was gaining momentum for its first 10 weeks, finally reached #2, and in its 11th week had enough power to go from #2 to #1. The rules kicks in and it drops out of the Top 10 instead?

It’s 10 weeks if a song declines for 3 weeks. 
 

some songs can get their acr revoked tho like blinding lights or as it was (I think) but not many songs are as big as that

Meghan? 

[Folklore89sm]

I did not expect Anti-Hero to do this well. The fact that this is by far Taylor’s most successful era on the UK is so impressive. 1989 wishes

[Tropez]

So weird to think Meghan was discounted as a 10s act. And here we are nearly 10 years later and she has a top top.

Nice sales for AH and MYG, if it wasn't for the Xmas, I could see it going #1, it's closing up the gap.

[Klein]

It's getting frustrating to have new entries every single week above Midnights. It's messing up its chart-run. 

 

Not complaining too much though, it is extremely stable and will probably end up one of her most successful album there.

 

Anti-Hero still smashing 

 

The UK dates for the Eras Tour are going to be a bloodbath too
