Madonna's Albums Surge As She Scores A New No. 1
Madonna is back on the United Kingdom's charts this week with a brand new release, and the success of the exciting project has once again drawn attention to other titles within her catalog. Veronica Electronica, a remix collection built around tracks from her Ray of Light era and featuring the never-before-shared cut 'Gone Gone Gone,' launches on multiple tallies, while two of her past sets also return. Veronica Electronica Leads Three Madonna full-lengths appear on the U.K. rankings this frame, and Veronica Electronica is the biggest of the bunch. The remix project makes its debut on six different charts. At the same time, her 1990 compilation The Immaculate Collection and her 2022 remix effort Finally Enough Love both reenter as listeners revisit her older work alongside her latest offering. The Immaculate Collection and Finally Enough Love The Immaculate Collection returns to the Official Album Downloads chart at No. 83. At the same time, Finally Enough Love reappears on the Official Album Streaming ranking at No. 85. Those titles are both performing very well for years-old collections, but in different ways. The Immaculate Collection Rises Hugh Of the two returning projects, The Immaculate Collection earns the higher placement. The best-of set, which houses many of Madonna's earliest and most successful singles, has now spent 144 weeks on the Official Album Downloads chart. It previously peaked at No. 11 and continues to stand as one of her most consistent sellers. Finally Enough Love Extends Its Streaming Run Finally Enough Love compiles 50 remixed tracks that all reached No. 1 on Billboard's Dance Club Songs chart – a record among all acts. Though it only managed a peak of No. 48 on the Official Album Streaming list in the U.K., it's now logged 118 weeks on the roster— an unusually long stay for a remix collection. Veronica Electronica Debuts at No. 1 Veronica Electronica opens at No. 1 on the Official Dance Albums chart, becoming Madonna's second leader on the genre-specific tally. It also lands inside the top 10 on nearly every other U.K. album ranking it appears on this week. A Solid Start for Veronica Electronica The only tally where Veronica Electronica misses the top 10 is the all-genre Official Albums chart, where it launches at No. 23. That's still a healthy opening position for a remix project, even for one that comes from one of the biggest stars in the world.

Madonna Charts A Bestselling Song And Album With Her Classics
Madonna returns to the U.K. charts as The Immaculate Collection and 'Music' both reappear, showing ... More the lasting power of her greatest hits. Madonna performing in New York City at Roseland. November 5, 2000 (Photo:) *** This is her first concert since 1993. Special Rates apply *** Madonna is enjoying something of a minor comeback in the United Kingdom this week — momentary, perhaps, and certainly not overwhelming, but still worthy of noting, especially considering the fact that there's no major reason for the return. The pop icon reappears on a pair of charts in the country this week, making space once again with both a beloved album and one of her more recognizable singles. The two titles have become bestsellers once more, and she once again asserts herself as one of the most successful names in pop music history. Looking first at albums, just one of Madonna's compilations finds space on the charts in the U.K. as The Immaculate Collection returns to the Official Albums Downloads ranking at No. 69. The Immaculate Collection has now spent 130 weeks on the U.K. download ranking. Despite its longevity, the collection has never even broken into the top 10 on this particular list. Its highest position remains its No. 11 peak. The Immaculate Collection was released in 1990 and immediately became a global success, as had been the case with everything she'd ever shared with her legion of fans. The compilation gathers many of Madonna's biggest hits from the first decade of her career, including 'Holiday,' 'Like a Virgin,' 'Papa Don't Preach,' and 'Like a Prayer.' At the time, it was seen as a definitive showcase of her pop dominance — and over the years, it has become one of the bestselling compilations by any solo artist in history. When it comes to individual tracks, Madonna sees just one of her hits return to the charts in the U.K. this week. 'Music' finds its way back onto the Official Physical Singles chart, landing at No. 73. That list ranks the top-selling songs across any physical format, including CD, cassette, or vinyl. Unlike The Immaculate Collection, which never managed to crack the upper tier of its ranking, 'Music' is already a former chart-topper on the roster it reappears on. The single has now spent 26 weeks — exactly half a year — on the Official Physical Singles list. 'Music' dropped in 2000 as the lead single from Madonna's album of the same name. The cut marked a sonic pivot for the superstar, leaning into electronic and dance-pop influences while still managing to sound unmistakably like her. It quickly became one of her biggest late-career hits and a global smash, hitting No. 1 in a number of major markets.
