Addison Rae remains at the top of the album chart for a 2^nd consecutive week with her self titled debut “Addison”.

It has been 25 years since I can recall listening to music in my childhood and therefore as a 25^th anniversary this year, songs which reach 25 years old may enter my weekly top 40. On this week, 25 years ago, Backstreet Boys released “The One”, meanwhile Darude released the epic single “Sandstorm” This week they both enter my top 40 at no.25 and no. 26 respectively.
