Ray Cyrus’ Some Gave All ruled for 17 straight frames in 1992 (June 13-Oct. 3). Mac Miller scores the week’s highest new entry on the new Billboard 200, as The Divine Feminine starts at No. 2 with 48,000 units (32,000 in traditional album sales). It’s the hip-hop artist’s fourth consecutive top five-charting album – the totality of his full-length releases. His last set, GO:OD AM debuted and peaked at No. 4 a year ago with 87,000 units (73,000 in album sales). Before that, he clocked a No. 3-peaking set with Watching Movies With the Sound Off (in 2013) and a No. 1 with Blue Slide Park (2011). His only other charting album on the Billboard 200 was the 2011 EP On and On and Beyond, which peaked at No. 55. The Suicide Squad soundtrack holds steady at No. 3 with 46,000 units (down

Music Week Report (excerpt)
Bastille having a second week at number one
Monday, September 26, 2016
by Alan Jones, London

Only a handful of albums have managed to stay at No.1 for more than a week so far this year, and Bastille's Wild World is one of them, retaining pole position with some ease, even though its sales are off 66.63% week-on-week at 12,025 (including 2,370 from streams). That's the sixth lowest tally for a No.1 in the 873 weeks that have elapsed thus far in the

21st century - but it is still 80.56% more than Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds' Skeleton Tree sold as it holds at No.2 in a week when its sales dive 70.92% to just 6,660. Even with the 360 sales Skeleton Tree secured from streaming, that is the lowest tally for a No.2 album this century, substantially below the previous low of 7,721 set by Drake's Views just five weeks ago. To put it further into context, the No.75 album has had a higher sale than that Skeleton Tree managed this week 51 times in the 21st century. All nine Led Zeppelin studio albums returned to the Top 15 when released in expanded, remastered editions in 2014 and 2015 but The Complete BBC Sessions' debut at No.3 (6,284 sales) is their 15th Top 10 album and the first addition to the group's tally of hit albums since 2012 when 2007 concert recording Celebration Day reached No.4. Usher's eighth studio album, Hard II Love is his first release in more than 4 years and his 6th straight Top 10 entry debuting at No.7 (4,722 sales) although introductory

4,603 sales). Completing the Top 10, The Beatles' Live At The Hollywood Bowl slips 3-4 (6,213 sales), Ward Thomas' Cartwheels holds at No.5 (6,064 sales) and Drake's Views rises 8-6 (5,656 sales). The latter album's paid-for sales of 1,256, incidentally, are below those of Petula Clark's From Now On, which debuts at No.70, and is mentioned more fully below. Overall album sales are down 4.58% week-on-week at 1,449,186. Streaming accounted for 537,714 sales - a record 37.10% of the total. Sales of paid-for albums are down 7.28% week-on-week at 911,472, and are 19.31% below same week 2015 sales of 1,129,500. In days of yore, paid-for purchases were all that mattered - but we live in sophisticated times, and more than five out of every six singles 'sales' these days are actually conjured up by the magic of streaming. Were things as they used to be, we would this week be heralding the second No.1 single of 2012 X Factor winner James Arthur, who previously topped the chart with his coronation single, Impossible, and had by far the biggest selling single last week with Say You Won't Let Go. Instead, it's a case of same again at the top of the chart, with The Chainsmokers reign dragging on for a fourth week with Closer racking up a combined sale of 82,593 copies, of which 55,873 are from streaming, and the rest from paid-for sales. As James Arthur is finding out, it is harder to dislodge No.1 hits in the current era, and Closer is actually the fifth No.1 in a row to reign for a minimum of four weeks - the first such sequence in more than sixty years of chart history. With pure sales of 39,879 factored up to 60,898 by streaming, Say You Won't Let Go is still an impressive return to form for Arthur, who has been absent from the chart since third single Recovery peaked at No.19 at the end of 2013. Its 25-2 leap bring Arthur his second runners-up position: second single You're Nobody 'Til Somebody Loves You debuted and peaked at No.2 behind Lorde's Royal in October 2013. Say You Won't Let Go is the introductory single from Arthur's second album, Back From The Edge, which drops in November. The only other new entry to the Top 10 this week is My Way, the latest single from Calvin Harris. Debuting at No.5 (46,622 sales), it is pure Calvin, in the sense that not only did he write the tune and lyrics and produce the track but he also provided the vocals, something he rarely does. His 28th chart entry, it is his 18th Top 5 entry. Ariana Grande's Side To Side (feat. Nicki Minaj) jumps 8-6 (44.005 sales). Elsewhere in the Top 10, there are declines for Let Me Love You (2-3, 52,824 sales) by DJ Snake feat. Justin Bieber, Cold Water (3-4, 52,081 sales) by Major Lazer feat. Justin Bieber & MØ, The Greatest (5-7, 42,605 sales) by Sia feat. Kendrick Lamar, Dancing On My Own (4-8, 41,428 sales) by Calum Scott and Heathens (6-9, 37,936 sales) by Twenty One Pilots, while In The Name Of Love recovers 11-10 (35,298 sales) for Martin Garrix & Bebe Rexhe. Overall singles sales are up 1.36% week-on-week at 10,276,880. Streams accounted for a record 8,696,888 sales, 84.63% of the total. Paid-for sales are up 0.23% week-on-week at 1,579,992 - 19.90% below same week 2015 sales of 1,972,596 and below same-week, previous-year sales for the 163rd week in a row.  COMPLETE CHARTS
