Tina Turner Dead: Singer To Achieve THESE Milestones After Death

Tina Turner is about to make a significant comeback on the charts.

As U.K. fans lament Turner's death last Wednesday (May 24) at the age of 83, four of his albums, led by The Platinum Collection, could enter the national album chart.

The Official Charts Company reports that Turner's career retrospective could break into the top 10 for the first time, reentering the midweek chart at No. 8.

The Platinum Collection initially peaked at No. 14 upon its 2009 debut. Foreign Affair by Turner, released in 1989, incorporates her hit "The Best." Foreign Affair will reenter the Official Chart at position No. 10.

Another hits compilation, 1994's The Collected Recordings, is poised for a No. 12 return, while one of the finest comebacks of the 20th century, the U.S. superstar's Private Dancer from 1984, which originally peaked at No. 2, could soar to No. 31.

During her lifetime, Turner achieved nine top 10 albums in the United Kingdom, including two number-one albums (Foreign Affair and the soundtrack to What's Love Got To Do With It). Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent, the fastest-selling album of 2023, soared to the top of the Official U.K. Albums Chart on Friday (May 26) with Lewis Capaldi.

"Broken By Desire" reclaims the top spot on the midweek chart, followed by two former leaders: Taylor Swift's "Midnights" (up 10-2), which benefits from the release of Midnights (The Til Dawn Edition); and Harry Styles' "Harry's House" (up 5-3), which rises as he completes a victory lap of his native country with his "Love On Tour."

Mick Hucknall's "Simply Red" may achieve the highest new entry with "Time," which debuted at No. 4 on the Official Chart Update.

If "Time" continues to pass, it will grant the British act their 15th U.K. top 10 single. Arlo Parks' sophomore album My Soft Machine, the follow-up to the British indie star's Mercury Prize-winning debut album from 2021,

Collapsed in Sunbeam, is also vying for a spot in the top ten. My Soft Machine's new position at No. 5 on the chart explosion is No. 5.

With The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte, alternative pop veterans Sparks are poised for their highest chart placement since 1974.

The American act, who recently concluded a tour of the United Kingdom, is aiming for a No. 6 debut on the national chart. When the Official U.K. Albums Chart is published on Friday, June 2nd, all will be disclosed.

Her publicist Bernard Doherty verified in a statement that the legendary singer passed away on May 24 after a lengthy illness at her home in Switzerland near Zurich.
