Oh well... that'll be 'cos of the New Year sales. They obviously haven't dropped the price of Bomb then. Still, just 1 week in the whole of 2005 without an album on top 200 - not bad going.Soldatti said:Crazy moves on the UK chart this week (including 60 re-entries on the Top 200) but U2 is nowhere on the chart.
I'm leaving for vacations now, see you all in two weeks.
Bye.
edge3 said:So i guess the world total for this week is gonna back down to around 20-30k.
In the UK overall artist album sales dropped by 61% after being the highest EVER in Xmas week - top 98 each sold over 10k ! - but this was still the 6th highest of 2005, so Bomb may well still have sold another 1,000.
In US i think we gonna see a drop to about # 160 with sales of around 10k (i hope i'm wrong)...

ybird3k said:bomb at #61 on Amazon.com, almost every album ahead of it has had a $5-7 reduction in price also. if they reduced bomb it would be a lot higher.
is it up to the Retailer what albums are reduced, or must the Artist/Record Company agree to it?
Also whats everyones thoughts about whether bomb should be reduced or not? might sell a lot more copies?

So, the Best of sold more than 10k copies last week allone in UK, or? (it was at #90). Very impressive.
ChargedVT said:We haven't got this week's US placing yet but we should be able to figure it out from the end of year sales results...
HTDAAB was #73 for the calendar year with 828,722
I think last year it was about 2,156,000????
What this means is that the album sold 8000-8500 this week in the US, I believe. Which would mean a drop in position considering that after christmas sales are still high.

Sorry, no, top 98 albums each sold over 10k last week (Xmas week). This week the top 47 albums each sold over 10k with a 61% drop overall. Best Of rose 87 spots so i guess it would have sold about the same as last week : 4k
