Per 'Hollandfree40' website the following s/b transferred from here to 'Coldplay' Song Artist page: #11 - Paradise (currently #4 there) & #12 - Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall (currently #12 there).

Your suggestion that the old listing mixed singles in with the albums is correct. But rather than fixing individual entries we've just reloaded the listing from 2009-2016. That should solve all the issues.
