Dido sold 200K this week, bringing her total to 600,000 copies in 2 weeks!  Thanks Hector. Dido's performance in the UK is nothing short of amazing. The equivilant performance in the USA would require 2 to 3 million in sales the first two weeks. :o |

LOL, that's hilarious. And cleverly obscure enough. Charmbracelet may have sold more in December despite peaking lower, but I bet its proportion of total album sales that week is probably lower than the proportion of total album sales this week belonging to The Remixes. So I would say that the jury is still out on which album performed better in the UK. |

i got the 10,000 post so don't even argue.
this weeks sales:
SINGLES
55,000 Black Eyed Peas
24,000 Beyonce
20,000 Jamelia
10,000 FFR (10)
9,000 Blondie (12)
ALBUMS
199,000 Dido
24,000 for beyonce is crap she wouldn't have got in the top 10 5 years ago with these sales.
Jameila's album climbs only one spot to number 65, it will have a big jump next week.
the only reason mariah got to no5 on airplay was becoz of busta she wouldnt have got there on her own.

If it's that important to you, then please, do go ahead and make a printout of that 10,000th post, laminate or frame it and put it up for all the world to see. 24,000 for beyonce is crap she wouldn't have got in the top 10 5 years ago with these sales. Errr... neither would the rest of the current Top 10 singles. |

OK, this is weird!! Anyone else seeing what I'm seeing? In fact, let me wait few seconds now....now according to what it says on my computer, I've made the 10,000th post, lol!  Okay, I finally figured out why you were seeing a fewer number of posts. The posts made in the Administrative Forum do not figure into the total for people who do not have access to those posts. |
