I've tried doing a list for the Top 75 but for some inexplicable reason I get "Hold On waiting to be approved buy OCC". Always have trouble with the 75 - don't know why. Could someone nice at OCC please look into it and tell me why? Thanks.

Whitney moves up to #26!! 155 weeks on the chart!! GO WHITNEY!! Glad to see Rihanna back. She will increase sales when she tours the UK and does the BRIT Awards- then she'll challenge for the #1 spot with Adele. ANTI will sell well over time- she'll be fine. Platinum is on the way in the UK for ANTI.
