Over the last week, I've been thinking about making changes to my chart. I find that sometimes I have periods where I love songs that aren't singles or remain album tracks and those songs are never able to make chart history because of that one footnote. But my album-track listening isn't consistent enough to have a separate chart for album-tracks so this week I decided to allow non-singles to chart. Now, I do realize that this makes the chart look less interesting... at least it does for me, but in thinking about it, Billboard's Hot 100 allows non-singles as well if a song gets enough iTunes downloads and my The Max 100 uses the Hot 100 as its inspired chart so I figure it's time to open up the criteria.
This means that there are going to be periods of album-takeovers for the chart as well. Had I allowed this to happen back in February, GaGa may have had most of the Top 10!
The album-tracks I'll choose to chart are ones that I listen to as a separate entity from the album they come from, ie. standout tracks from albums or tracks/recordings I discover on my own.
The main idea is to have a chart that represents more of what I listen to and like, regardless of song status.
So here's the first chart to represent this new criteria. I might also change how I make the chart itself and instead of changing song positions based on the previous chart, I might just make an entire new chart each week by dragging songs into a new iTunes playlist and re-ordering them in there. That'll result in TONS of movement each week. We'll see.
Anywho, as a result, this new chart has a record for most Top 100 entries with 23 debuts.
Also, Lady GaGa sets a record for most Top 100 positions with 10. Amy MacDonald has 6 songs in the Top 100. Both have 5 debuts each.
