Madonna effortlessly scored 7 number 1 singles between 1985-1990, which is something Kylie's never achieved.

Who cares who has the most #1 Albums. Means Nothing. Kylie started out as a actor and by chance started singing. By right she should off been out of the music industry decades ago yet she somehow managed to survive. For that you gotta give her credit. She has survived a very tough industry where most have faded. Everytime Kylie achieves something we hear the name Madonna. Even if Madonna gets overtaken in the Albums tally she cannot be wiped out as she has done way too much in the music industry.  Don't limit her as that is a insult. 

You mean Madonna who just achieved her 64th UK Top 10 Hit this year and re-charted with Like a Prayer inside the Top 40 - currently working on a new album 42 years into her never ending carrer and made 224 Million with her recent tour?

Btw Madonna & Kylie adore each other.

You mean this Madonna?

Julia, who cares about most #1 albums? Madonna fans do! Or at least until Taylor Swift beats her 'record' next year and they can no longer crow about being #1 any more. I say record in inverted commas, because as we know, it's not the record. It's separated female category because they are all a long way behind the men - barely in the top 10 behind Elvis, Beatles, Rollings Stones and even Robbie Williams.

I've got my bingo card ready for the inevitable date

When, not if Madonna get overtaken:

1) They are garbage albums

2) won't stand the test of time like Madonna

3) re-records don't count

4) re-records are cheating

5) sold nowhere near as many

6) live stats [even though I think Eras tour beats any Madonna ever did]

7) stupid teenybopper buying Taylor albums (forgetting the teenyboppers of the 80's were buying Madonna and Kylie).

8) Most #1 albums doesn't matter anymore

9) Chart stats don't count any more now Madonna isn't top of them.

I'm yet to see them state an objective way in which Madonna is still #1 on current stats and no longer will be when someone else beats them on the same metric. Or in the most cases, where Madonna has already been beaten. I think this is the final chart stat that Madonna still holds the record and it won't last long. I predicted a few years ago it would happen before the end of this decade. I certainly didn't expect it to end just are the middle of it!

Dear Mr (pompous ***) Carbines,

Your projection is something to be admired, but in reality, Madonna fans don't live and breath for hit singles and number ones in the same way Kylie's fans do. They were miserable and bitter about Madonna's record(s) for decades, and their idol has been in the same mindframe for years. Imagine releasing any old sh** because you want to break someone elses record. That's not my definition of an artist and never was.

Kylie's music is getting worse, which I didn't think was possible, but here we are. Her new album is the equvalent of a patchwork quilt, shodilly sewn together from old bits of cheap tat that fall apart within a week or two, but it's one step further to breaking Madonna's record, so the music is irrelevant, right?

You seem to think we give a monkey's about Taylor beating Madonna's record?

Well, no...In reality, we do not. She (like Kylie) has not made an impact on music, or pushed boundaries in the same way Madonna has. Taylor may have the numbers (but that's largely due to the global population increasing to 8+ billion, as opposed to 5b during Madonna's regin, so it's not rocket science as to why someone so vanilla, yet pretty "relates" / appeals more to todays tasteless, Coffee sipping, woke brigade. 

The thought of Kylie breaking Madonna's record is laughable, because it will only be for one poxy country, not worldwide, but that's typical Kylie fans and their "we are the world" mentality.

Btw,  Make sure you don't forget your OAP bus pass when you make that trip to the bingo hall. We already made your "bingo card" facts years ago anyway, so your points are hardly "unique".

You forgot to mention this top 10 hit was due to Weeknd and like a prayer re-charting due to Deadpool and Wolverine. 

So who are we to thank for Like a Prayer originally topping the charts in 1989?  The Vatican, the Pope?

Remind me how a newly-recorded album is cheating and remix album isn't?

How lazy not to write a fresh comment : ) 

I was originally under the impression it was paired up with the first album, but I looked at the tracklist and maybe I was wrong. Even so, it doesn't change the fact some of these songs were cast offs of the original album, and she's milking it for all it's worth because she's desperate to break Madonna's record. The quality of her music has nosedived big time and it's evident in these (god awful) tracks. Kylie's fans only care about chart numbers, so they won't care. Like their idol, all they care about is her beating Madonna's long held record, but If anyone will get there first, it'll be Taylor, not Kylie. Also, Madonna is recording a new album, so that'll annoy Kylie and her putrid fanbase evfen more.

As for remix albums, I have never counted them as a studio album, but while we're on the subject, wasn't Kylie's Boombox a megaflop of epic proportions? Maybe that's why you're still mad about Madonna's doing well.

I can see that new album going in at no 3 and falling to 247 the next week. 

Well, then you'd be wrong.

MDNA stayed on the UK chart for 12 weeks

Rebel Heart - 12 Weeks

Madame X  - 5 Weeks

Finally Enough Love - 58 Weeks

So much for "Falling to 247 the next week".
