Isn't it strange that this happened on the very same week Whitney passed away. The timing is eerie. I mean its been almost 20 years and no one's broken her record until now.
Kinda bittersweet.

I love this numbers game! 20 years ago, Whitney topped the charts for 20 weeks. Today Adele's 21 break the record with 21 weeks at #1 the week Whitney dies, in it's 52nd week on the chart. Making it a completel 52 weeks that Adele sandwiches with #1s.
Exactly one year late she receives her 21st week at number 1 with 21. And 21s 21st week at #1 is made better by it's highest sales week ever.
The number "21" really must hold prominence to this albums era now.
