How many times has ABBA Gold ended up in a year end top 10?
Amazingly, only the secondHow many times has ABBA Gold ended up in a year end top 10?
If we thought the singles chart was busted... Jesus, the albums chart really is a pointless endeavour these days
Only 19 of the top 100 were 2022 studio album releases. The vast majority are greatest hits and old classics. I imagine 2023 will be even worse.
(01) HARRY STYLES – Harry’s House
(03) TAYLOR SWIFT – Midnights
(17) ARCTIC MONKEYS – The Car
(18) GEORGE EZRA – Gold Rush Kid
(22) THE WEEKND – Dawn FM
(35) BEYONCE – Renaissance
(36) KENDRICK LAMAR – Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers
(44) ARRDEE – Pressure
(45) LIAM GALLAGHER – C’mon You Know
(49) CENTRAL CEE – Central Cee
(50) WET LEG – Wet Leg
(66) PAOLO NUTINI – Last Night In The Bittersweet
(67) DRAKE – Honestly, Nevermind
(69) DRAKE & 21 SAVAGE – Her Loss
(77) THE 1975 – Being Funny In A Foreign Language
(81) YEARS & YEARS – Night Call
(85) MUSE – Will Of The People
(89) FLORENCE + THE MACHINE – Dance Fever
(96) BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN – Only The Strong Survive

The album charts should be sales only, or only where a full album is streamed.
I don't see why a million or so streams of 'Running up that hill' should all count towards 'The Whole Story', if they haven't bothered to check out 'Sat in your lap' and 'Experiment IV' for example.
