Also in Ireland :
Joshua Tree : # 44 (RE) - why only 94 weeks on chart though?
Best of 80-90 : # 65 (RE) - 215 weeks on chart
So, U2's album sales are seriously hotting up.

Really great news!
Now I'm optimistic that the Bomb will stay in the Top 40 of the global charts in this week.

Awesome!!
I guess Best of 80-90 sold about 3K & JT 2,500 - impressive.
I thought there would be a few re-entry's but I wasn't so sure Bomb would re-enter the top 50 so soon. I guess Bomb must have sold over 5K. So, I reckon sales of Bomb in UK are now about 1,085,000 - that's (possibly) more than ATYCLB!!
ps - I wonder how many other U2 albums are in the top 200?

i'd predict COBL to get about 30k at the most next week. with the frog sellin over 50k
also why isnt COBL in the download chart top 50?
Good news for HTDAAB though, guarenteed top 40 re-entry next week!

Oasis' Heathen Chemistry re-entered UK chart at # 69 with sales of 3,280 last week. This means Best of 80-90 probably sold about 3,500 - it also increased it's sales by 50%+.
JT also increases sales by 50%+ in UK : it probably sold about 2,800 copies - that's the equivalent of selling 14,000 in US!!

Norway out of Top 40 (#34)
Netherlands #38 (#32)
Are the good results from UK and Ireland enough for another week in the global Top 40? The other charts are not good.
I think it depends now on USA!

My prediction for US : #85 with 12K
I think Bomb needs to stay on as many world charts as possible to stay on Mediatraffic chart 'cos then it'll have enough points to stay on their weekly top 40 chart. Bomb will definately stay on US BB top 200 chart & therefore get the Mediatraffic points from US. The weird thing is that there's probably albums selling more than Bomb which don't make the Mediatraffic top 40 'cos they're not charting in enough countries to get the the required points to qualify.

Global Charts
Mediatraffic has already updated the Global album chart, and HTDAAB rises one spot to 34 with 3 debuts ahead of it. I think that it will continue to rise due to the tour in Europe and the total number of countries it should chart in...and I think COBL will have a good debut next week on the Global singles chart.
Since COBL is being released worldwide within about a 2-3 week period, and because I think it will chart in the U.S., COBL will probably do better than Sometimes on the Global chart. Vertigo peaked at 2 and Sometimes peaked at 9, making both songs international smash hits. I would not be surprised if COBL makes it into the Top 5, and #1 is certainly possible IMO.

That's great news from Mediatraffic. I think bomb would have sold about 35K - so, my estimated sales for last 6 weeks of Bomb at MT :
7411M + 55K (w.24) + 54K (w.25) + 48K (w.26) + 40K (w.27) + 37K (w.28) 35K (w.29) = * 7680M
* the new Q magazine says HTDAAB has sold 9M & the new Mojo magazine says it's sold 10M.
