Adele’s 21 Continues To Tie Major Records

Adele’s new album 21 has been blowing up my iTunes playlist and it looks like I’m not alone. The album has spent 9 weeks at No. 1 on the UK charts.

Adele’s current single ‘Someone Like You’ has spent 5 out of the past 6 weeks at No. 1 on the singles chart.

Adele’s 21 is now the longest running number one album since the Beatles 1 album. That’s pretty impressive! 21 is also the first album by a female solo artist to spend this long at the top, equal only with Madonna’s 1990 hits package ‘The Immaculate Collection’.

Katy Perry’s ‘California Gurls’ Tops Billboard Hot 100 Chart

Katy Perry logs the fastest No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 by an artist signed to Capitol Records in nearly 43 years, as “California Gurls,” featuring Snoop Dogg, rises 2-1 in its fourth week on the chart.

The song makes the quickest sprint to the summit by a Capitol single since Bobbie Gentry’s “Ode to Billie Joe” likewise reached the top spot in four weeks on the chart dated Aug. 26, 1967. Five months before Gentry, the Beatles’ “Penny Lane” had also zipped to No. 1 in four frames.

Perry’s hit crowns the chart thanks in part to its selling 318,000 downloads (up 18%) in the chart’s tracking week, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The cut leads Digital Songs for a third week. On Radio Songs, “California Gurls” jumps 10-6 (89.2 million in audience, up 25%, according to Nielsen BDS).
