The Beatles Return To Multiple Charts As Fans Keep Buying And Streaming
It's a quiet week for The Beatles on the music charts in the United Kingdom, which means the group appears on only a handful of tallies. Still, it seems that British citizens will never stop consuming the music the Fab Four created, whether through hugely popular compilations or steady buying and streaming activity of individual tunes.
The Beatles return to multiple rankings in the country this week, as both a hit single and a massively popular album manage to reappear.
The Beatles claim just one popular track in the U.K. this week, as "Now and Then" becomes a bestseller once more. The tune, which was released in 2023 and marketed as the final release by The Beatles, reenters the Official Physical Singles chart at No. 50.
"Now and Then"—which earned the group a new Grammy Award only months ago—never stays away from this tally for long. It has now spent 78 weeks somewhere on the list of the top-selling tracks on any physical format, including nearly two months at No. 1.
The Beatles also appear with multiple charting albums at the moment, but only one had to return. 1, a compilation of the group's No. 1 hits, finds its way back to the Official Album Downloads chart at No. 93.
Among all of the band's projects that performed well enough to appear on at least one list, 1 is the longest-charting, as it is now up to 238 weeks on the ranking of the most-downloaded titles in the country. 1 is also the only full-length by The Beatles this week to appear on just a single roster.
The Beatles typically keep two related compilations on the charts, and both are still present at the moment. 1967–1970 and 1962–1966 take up space on both the Official Albums chart and Official Albums Streaming ranking. Only 1967–1970 manages to climb, as it ascends two spots on the streaming-only tally, while in every other instance, the projects — which contain the singles the band released during the years in the albums' titles — are falling.
Interestingly, there's no crossover between the two connected compilations and 1, as it seems that both 1967–1970 and 1962–1966 perform especially well on platforms like Spotify, which may be keeping them going on the charts, while 1 is a bestseller.

How I Became an Accidental Author of ‘Dark Academia'
When I turned 30, I quit a well-paying job to write novels. Initially, the gamble didn't go well. A couple of early efforts garnered kind remarks from important publishers, but no book deals. I was in the last chance saloon when I began writing 'Black Chalk,' a dark tale based on my time as a student at Oxford in the 1990s. When I finished the novel, it was rejected—this time by the entire U.S. publishing industry. But my agent sent it to a U.K. house, Harvill Secker, who published it in 2013. Two years later a U.S. house, Picador, picked it up. The book is now going into its 19th printing.

When asked her opinion on Taylor's album 'The Tortured Poets Department,' which famously details the pop star's feelings about their short-lived romance, Denise said that she's 'glad' that she won't be Taylor's mother-in-law. Taylor and Matty broke up in June 2023, and she's been dating her current boyfriend Kansas City Chief's tight end Travis Kelce since that Fall. Solve the daily Crossword
