Michael Jackson: King of Pop Charts Again

The Michael Jackson Memorial: Read our Live Blog Report »

Despite his passing last week, our favorite moonwalking pop star is taking over the charts again, according to Billboard.com. The preliminary sales figures from Nielsen Soundscan shows that the top nine positions on Billboard's Top Pop Catalog Albums chart this week are Michael Jackson tracks. Eight out of the top 10 is from Jackson himself and the Jackson 5 houses the others. The legend's "Number Ones" leads in the No. 1 spot, with "The Essential Michael Jackson" and "Thriller" following accordiningly. The only non-related Jackson top 10 track is a reissue of the "Woodstock" movie soundtrack at No. 10. He won't stop until we get enough.-Shavon S. Greene
