Billboard 200: 6/2/12: Adam Lambert No. 1- 77,000

[Living Legend]

I'm interested to see if anyone knows the lowest selling album to ever hit #1. Was there ever an album to top the Billboard 200 but sell less than 250K?

[ListenToItTwice]

^ Paul Grien did a feature recently about "unsuccessful" albums that hit #1. I'll try to find it, and then scan for more recent #1s with low final totals. Though honestly I'd be surprised if Mission Bell (with its infamous 40k #1 debut) didn't have the record.

The following are the #1s that might not have sold 250k yet.

(2011):
Cake Showroom of Compassion 98,884+ during chart run
The Decemberists The King is Dead 190,015+ during chart run
Amos Lee Mission Bell 85,198+ during chart run
Game The R.E.D Album 206,000 during chart run

(2012):
Adam Lambert Trespassing 77,206 so far

It's pretty much definitely between Cake and Amos Lee for the all time low.

Catalog albums: Sugarland's Live on the Inside (267k, but never hit #1 on Comprehensive Albums) and Glee Cast's The Power of Madonna (307k).

Sugarland (Live On he Inside) holds the record for albums that placed at #1 on the Billboard 200 for lowest overall sales- it was not the overall #1 for the week though (MJs Number Ones beat it) - last known sales = 267K)

The Glee's Madonna album holds the record for lowest sales among albums that were the biggest overall sellers of the week.(last known sales = 307K)

[ListenToItTwice]

^ Thanks so much! When are those from? They're the "winners" among albums that can no longer be considered Current, but the ones still listed in my post have not reached those sales yet. Any updated numbers for those albums?

[Enigma.]

The one by Amos Lee will probably be the lowest selling #1 ever. It's well over 1 year old now so safe to say that it won't pass 200k in sales.

[Living Legend]

Wow, I never knew Amos Lee & Cake sold so poorly after their first week. Adam Lambert will probably join the The Bottom 5 of this list. At least he won't be the lowest though.

[Enigma.]

I think Adam has potential to do quite well, 350k or sth if the new single takes off (it's brilliant)

LOL way to spin #1 into a shame.

LOL, seriously funny but meanwhile mainstream media news like CNN, MSNBC, FOX, etc... had him all over my TV with him making Billboard history. Somehow I think the general public will remember that as oppose to if he would probably make the bottom 5 list. Had the album come out let's say in Nov he probably would have higher sales but no #1.

Lionel Richie's 'Tuskegee' becomes year's second-biggest album

Billboard -- This week, Lionel Richie's smash "Tuskegee" album becomes the second-biggest-selling album of the year, with a total of 789,000 sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The Mercury Nashville set surpasses Whitney Houston's "Greatest Hits," which falls to No. 3 (784,000). The year's top seller is Adele's "21" with 3.3 million.

Bing music: Lionel Richie

Even better news for Richie: "Tuskegee" has now outsold his last three studio albums combined. His three previous sets have moved a cumulative 751,000. "Just Go" was the album that preceded "Tuskegee" and has sold 95,000 since its bow in 2009. "Coming Home" (2006) and "Just For You" (2004) have shifted 449,000 and 207,000, respectively.

"Tuskegee" debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart eight weeks ago with 199,000. It his best sales week since SoundScan began tracking sales in 1991. It rose to No. 1 two weeks later, becoming the R&B and pop icon's third No. 1 album, and his first since 1986's "Dancing on the Ceiling" spent two weeks in the penthouse.

Also: Lionel Richie's Nashville Splash

The new album's single, "Endless Love" (featuring Shania Twain), rises from No. 16 to No. 15 on the Adult Contemporary airplay chart this week. The tune's video is nominated for Collaborative Video of the Year at the upcoming CMT Music Awards, due to be broadcast on June 6.

What makes Florence + the Machine sell so well? she is still a relatively new indie artist and she doesn't have big radio crossover hit, does she? she's selling more like those indie veterans Black Keys and Jack White.

"Dog Days" obviously helped Lungs become a massive hit, and it was just such a good album that she built a real devoted fanbase with it. Ceremonials is getting continued fabulous word-of-mouth, so all it takes is a little bit of airplay on their key formats to keep the album selling.

"Shake it Out" is also now just certified a Gold single, so while it's probably not quite on the same level as "Dog Days" was, that's probably helping Ceremonials move copies too.
