Mas Friendly Fires... (+ Big Announcement!)

We may be ready to say goodbye to this year, but that doesn't mean there's a lot of change on the charts, or at least the top of the charts, that is. In the second to last chart issue of 2011, Friendly Fires still dominates both the Top Songs and Top Albums charts with Blue Cassette and Pala, respectively. Blue Cassette stays on top for a second week in a row, extending the group's consecutive stay at the top to 17 weeks while Pala, on the other hand, enjoys its fifteenth week at the top of the Albums chart.

Some unexpected jumps include Fedde le Grand storming up to #3 as Greatest Gainer with So Much Love, while Benny Benassi and Gary Go return to #2 with Close To Me. Rihanna and Calvin Harris enter the Top Ten at #5 with We Found Love, Adele returns at #6 with Someone Like You and LMFAO recovers and closes at #10 with Party Rock Anthem. Lots of new entries this week including new songs by Pitbull, Taio Cruz, Avicii, Nickelback, Flo Rida, Lana Del Rey, Bruno Mars and... Justin Bieber!?

And with those names comes the big announcement! Starting this week, and with the help of the new digital charts I'm compiling, the worldwide top selling singles are incorporated to the formula for building my personal Songs chart. That basically means more mainstream songs in there than the ones I'd never - or would eventually - listen to. Creepy, I know, but the reason for this decision, after going back and forth for a while, is that with less available time in my hands I find myself listening to less music than what I'd actually like to. With that said, the chart gets a little more action while not completely affecting its outcome, after all, my tastes will still play a big part of each week's chart. Hopefully we won't get too much of Glee Cast, or the likes, in there lol. The merging of current and recurrent songs is also a big possibility in the near future, but I haven't made a decision about that... yet.
