It’s also almost weekly in the Belgium album top 200. This week at nr 194, last week 172.HUNGARY Top 40 physical album chart
Bad 34 (re)
After three weeks the album back to the chart.
Rolling Stone is allergic from making good lists. Thriller and Bad should be higher. Also what about the top 500 songs?The yearly countdown to the 500 greatest albums of all time ended today (as voted by the audience) and the results for Michael are mixed but ultimately good.
Last year Thriller finished nr 7, Bad nr 119 and Off The Wall somewhere between 400 and 500 (I forgot)
This year Michael has 4 albums in the list while Thriller and Bad had a significant drop we welcome a big jump for Off The Wall and a newcomer with Dangerous!
- Thriller nr 27
- Bad nr 146
- Off The Wall 203
- Dangerous 242
Good to see Dangerous is still on (some) people’s minds afterall! Last year I had voted Dangerous in my top 5 and Thriller at nr 1 this year I didn’t pick Dangerous yet it made the list which is cool.
My top 5 was basically the same as last year (Conan The Barbarian replaced Dangerous)
1 Thriller
2 What’s Going On - Marvin Gaye
3 April - Sun Kil Moon
4 Conan The Barbarian OST - Basil Poledouris
5 Twilight Of The Gods - Bathory
The last 3 were not in the selection so I had to include them myself lol
This is not from Rolling Stone but from an alternative radio station in Belgium, I don’t know why I didn’t post that initially.Rolling Stone is allergic from making good lists. Thriller and Bad should be higher. Also what about the top 500 songs?
And the Prince thing can be seen, imo, in the context of the radio station having been mainly a rock station originally. Prince's stuff is predominantly pop rock, I would say. Of course, he did gospel and blues-y stuff as well but I think if people think about Prince it is songs with a rock edge that come to mind.This is not from Rolling Stone but from an alternative radio station in Belgium, I don’t know why I didn’t post that initially.
It is actually an impressive result, the station has mellowed quite a bit but it started out as a rock station which can still be seen in this album list. This was the top 5:
1 Pearl Jam - Ten
2 Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon
3 Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
4 Radiohead - OK Computer
5 Nirvana - Nevermind
Take in mind that Thriller was nr 7 last year which surprised me enormously. Michael easily beats his direct competition like Stevie Wonder (2 albums) , Marvin Gaye (1 album), Madonna ( 2 albums), George Michael (2 albums) and he equals Prince who has 4 albums too.
More weddings, graduations, parties and the likes?
Anyone know why the sudden increase in Rock With You streams?
Could be. Lots of PhD's go through at this time of year.More weddings, graduations, parties and the likes?
