Bruce Springsteen ranked first and fifth on the music chart
American rock legend Bruce Springsteen, affectionately known as "The Boss," has once again made a mark on the German music scene with his latest release, "Tracks II: The Lost Albums." The box set, comprising 83 tracks, has secured the top spot on the Official German Album Charts upon its debut[2][3][4]. This marks Springsteen's eleventh album to hit number one in Germany, a testament to his enduring popularity.
While "Tracks II: The Lost Albums" has broken new ground by securing the number one position, it does not appear to have set any unique record-breaking feats beyond this achievement[4]. The compilation "Lost And Found: Selections From The Lost Albums," another release from Springsteen, is a best-of cross-section from his magnum opus, but it is not a box set and contains an unspecified number of tracks[1].
Meanwhile, on the German singles chart, New Zealand singer-songwriter Lorde is at number three with her album "Solar Power." Berlin-based singer Zartmann has climbed from number five to number two with his single "Drown Me," while Alex Warren has been at the top for five consecutive weeks with "Ordinary." German metal band Heaven Shall Burn's album "Heimat" is at number two on the album charts[5].
