Hello,

Here are again the results of the Dutch jury. As usual, all data is provided by the Mega Top 50 (http://www.planet.nl/music/0,1235,79_1855,00.html).
In its 11th week there is not much change for The Best Of 1990-2000. The album holds its position at #6. In its first 10 weeks the album has not charted lower than #7, quite an achievement IMO. For the monthly total, the album is also #6 (thus it was the 6th best-selling album of January). There is a small asterisk to U2's position as the 2 versions are counted together.
Here is the chart run for The Best Of 1990-2000 (16-11-02):
1-1-3-4-4-6-7-6-7-6
6

There are no other U2 albums on the regular album chart and there will not be any other U2 albums on it for a while. In the newly founded Back Catalog Top 50 The Best Of 1980-1990 has again left the charts. It was #50 last week. I think the sales needed for charting in the Back Catalog Top 50 are so low that it'll always be a very volatile chart (I think we're talking maybe at several hundred copies a week)
The 2nd chart run for The Best Of 1980-1990 on the Back Catalog Top 50 was (25-1-03):
50-out

There are no U2 singles on the singles chart (again a Top 50 since 1 January).

As I said, last week was supposedly a slow week. Robbie Williams has the #1 album with Escapology and Eminem's Lose Yourself is still the #1 single. (Yep, this is the same as last week. And the week before that. And...)

C ya!

Week 11 Info?

Melissa did not send me any SoundScan info. for this past week. Since both albums are out of the Top 100 on the U.S. Billboard charts, I do not know their performance.

Therefore, if anyone has either the Billboard or SoundScan information, please post it here. I have accurate sales numbers through Week 10 - so if nothing else, we can at least estimate Week 11's numbers.

Thanks! :yes:
