A Star Is Born Returns For 7th Week At No. 1

By FYI Staff

With no major new releases in the week and consumers young and old recuperating from too much of everything, the last week in December produced a chart about as exciting as a kidney bean.


Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper’s A Star Is Born soundtrack returns to No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart, with over 8,000 total consumption units in the week. It is the album’s seventh week at No. 1, marking it as the longest running chart-topping soundtrack album since Frozen spent seven weeks at the top in 2014. “Shallow,” the first single from the album, returns to No. 1 on the Digital Songs chart, the song’s 13th week at the top of the chart.

Travis Scott’s “Sicko Mode” returns to the top of the Streaming Songs chart and Post Malone has two in the top five, with “Sunflower” moving 7-2 and “Wow” bulleting 26-4.

Obituaries: Klaatu Drummer-Songwriter Terry Draper, MuchMusic VJ Juliette Powell, Glam Rocker Andrew Matheson

This week we also acknowledge the passing of Toronto scene influencer Sandy Stagg, , Canadian country guitar ace Roy Penney and English keyboardist and producer Bob Andrews.

Terry (Edward) Draper, a Canadian drummer and singer-songwriter best known as a member of noted 1970s progressive rock band Klaatu, died on May 15, at the age of 73, of leukemia.

An official obituaryreports that "Born in Toronto, and raised in Weston, Ontario, Terry’s two passions growing up were hockey and music. But music scored the win when he turned down a chance to join an NHL team’s training camp as a goalie to play drums in a band. And did that ever turn out to be a wild ride."
