Note that they kept the exact same songs on the survey. In the Bush is not aired this week, it returns on next week's survey. The new gold library is also not listed this week, since the new gold library is entirely in the Top 77 of the year. NOTE: We don't have the store printed list this week. The top ten albums reflected above are a repeat of last week's top ten for continuity.
