Weekly music charts for 2016 - CRAZY-HORSE - 27-04-2016
#42 is about right for the P!NK single, its very average IMO...
the #2 in Australia this week is grossly overinflated IMO...
but I guess she is more popular here than in any country in the world, so I guess it figures she would be that high.

Weekly music charts for 2016 - bob_32_116 - 04-05-2016
It's pretty easy to understand why there has been a big influx of prince singles and albums onto the relevant charts - but what's with all the Michael Jackson stuff? Is there some MJ-related thing happening that I haven't heard about?
As an aside, isn't it interesting that, as facts start to emerge, it appears as though the circumstances that led to Prince's death are eerily similar to those in the case of Michael Jackson? i.e. errors in medication?
Weekly music charts for 2016 - CRAZY-HORSE - 05-05-2016
im not sure there is anything of consequence/historical with Michael Jackson at the moment??
he was born in August and died in June and the "30th Anniversary" release of "thriller" was a couple of years ago...
im guessing maybe both names have been linked because both Michael and Prince were from Jehovah Witness families???
I guess both really rose to stardom internationally at the same time and both died from similar causes???
but to answer your Question bob_32, I have no real idea, sorry mate.
Weekly music charts for 2016 - bob_32_116 - 05-05-2016
^^ Prince and Michael Jackson were often compared because their voices were similar, and I guess their musical styles were often similar. To me though they were chalk and cheese. Jackson was talented, but he was an entertainer, in manner of people like Elvis Presley, Tom Jones or Dionne Warwick. Prince on the other hand was a creator and an innovator, as well as being an entertainer - he wrote all his own material (as far as I know) and was not afraid to touch on subjects that other performers tended to shy away from.
