Hey,
Since the All-Time list will be either:
50 albums - every album is after 2010
100 albums - ~97 albums after 2010, 3 albums before 2010.
The All Time list will be the same as a decade list of the 10s + 20s (as albums start racking numbers).

It would be cool if you added decade lists next to the years. These lists (same as the all time one) wouldn't need breakdowns by songs because you have them in the yearly ones. That would be a better way to compare albums that aren't from the same year, but are from the same era.

Regarding your question about breakdowns, to me they are not neccesarry, but people will be asking all the time as to what songs are counted/why isn't this song counted ...
If you asked this regarding pages being too big (aesthetically), you can simply put this whole breakdown section in a spolier, kinda like the FAQ is on the streaming tool.
But if you meant there is too much data to laod, then this wouldn't solve anything since the data would need to be loaded regardless if it is in a spoiler or not.

Hi MJD! That's great!

I've done this few months ago: https://datastudio.google.com/reporting/2d7dcc04-8294-4796-848e-94c401ccc050/page/C7fNB

Great to see something automatic and less manual 🙂

Hi Strongerq!

Very good remarks. The removal of breakdowns had more to do with time to print the data which slows down the page of the list is extended. Removing it for decades lists / all-time works pretty well.

I've now added both of them, decades lists and all-time list. The latter is a top 200 so that it features a decent share of older albums

Next I'll add more 60s-80s albums as there are not many over 1b, but for now I need some rest 🙂

Map of the Soul 7 also has songs from Map of the soul: persona. I don't see a reason to exclude Ly: answer, since It has many new songs. It has songs from previous albums because It's part of an era

Reissue : a complete album reissued with some new songs (or not)
Compilation : a package merging songs from several previously released albums with some new songs (or not)

7 and Answer are of completely different nature. At best the debatable part is the inclusion of Persona, we had it early in our files even before the release of 7 but in truth it shouldn't be there as soon as we consider 7 its reissue.

If you would like to be consistent and to see Answer included, then it would mean you consider it the reissue of the LY era (and not just of one of the two albums) and that both Her and Tear should be removed.

Hi Gabriel!

There are a bit more than 500 albums at 1b+, so our tracking does not cover a top 1000 so far. I did expand the list to a top 500 yet 🙂

Hi visitor!

The Big Machine version has 3 million more than the original thanks to commentaries, we stick to the largest version for all albums unless something excludes it (like reputation stadium edition which contains past hits).

Yup, scripts can really be incredibly useful! Your work will be used to complete the earlier years too 🙂
