If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
Bomb in UK :
# 73 (# 66) :sad: - disappointing, I was expecting it to rise a few places - estimated sales 1,075,000.

At least COBL debuts at #30 on top 50 airplay chart.

Oh,i think that the COBL effect isn't yet in Uk......

Do you think that tv performance at Good morning america can help the bomb in the us album chart?

Sorry but I don't know that but I'm sure that there's somebody here who knows that. If not, I can ask that!
 
it certainly isnt 15,000, that would mean its only sold 135,000 there,

i'd say its either 50,000 , or 100,000
which would be total of : 450,000 or 900,000

I'm pretty sure its 15,000, the same as New Zealand which has the same Population as Ireland.

If Platinum was 100,000 in Ireland that would be similar to Platinum being over 7 Million in the USA which would be utter ridiculous.

I agree : I'm certain 15,000 is platinum in Ireland - but 9xPlat / 135K after 26 weeks is AWESOME!!!! On a per capita basis that's the equivalent of selling 9963M in US or 2049M in UK - pretty damn amazing!!!! :rockon:

Also in France :
Sometimes : # 71 (# 64) :wink:

Also a fall in USA and Canada
Out of the charts in Australia, Argentinia, Brasilia, Japan and New Zealand!

My estimation for mediatraffic: #32 (#25)

Sometimes is at #38 on World Singles Chart in it's 15th week...the song had a pretty good run, reaching the top 10 on the World Singles Chart. It peaked at #9 on two different occasions, as the delayed, low-key release of the song in the U.S. may have extended it's run on this chart but it definitely kept it from reaching the Top 5. It was at least as big of a GLOBAL hit as Stuck was for ATYCLB...we'll see what COBL does compared to Elevation.

Don't be sad. :)

Unlike the U.S., when U2's tour goes to Europe - which is just 2 weeks away - the album will bounce back up the charts there. In 2001, when U2 toured Ireland, U2's entire catalog was in the Top 60!! And in the U.K., ATYCLB returned to the Top 10. So don't worry about the drop in Europe - it's momentary.
 
what chart position was ATYCLB in the UK, when the elevation tour reached there?
will HTDAAB be able to get back into the top 10 or even #1 when Vertigo gets here?
 
The rest of the world...

It's time to go around the world again to report on how U2 is doing in countries that we don't often talk about...

I'm sure there is more information out there, but this has taken too long as it is...just more evidence of U2's truly Global fanbase.:rockon:
 
Looking at different countries charts looks like "SYCMIOYO" only failure was USA.In Serbia it was definetely bigger hit then Vertigo but looks like COBL will be a real champion since I heard it on the radio surely more then ten times within last two days.And I have a good feeling that Europe will love COBL for sure.As for USA it depends.If it was available for legal downloading I predict top 50 or even 40 on Hot 100.If not it will have the same destiny as ABOY and SYCMIOYO.
