Week 5

[Popmartijn]

Hello,

Again, the Dutch charts have been very quick in their update. Last week was a busy shopping week so a good result this week should mean many copies sold. As usual, the charts are courtesy of Mega Top 100 .
In its fifth week the album holds its #4 position. This indicates that the album is still selling like the proverbial hot cakes. I haven't seen any certification yet for the album, but I won't be surprised if its already platinum or so (80,000 copies sold here in the Netherlands). 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

There are no other U2 albums on the chart. I'd expected that the first Best Of... would have re-entered the chart, but that's not the case. I do know that now also the 2CD version has been re-released in the Netherlands. The #1 album this week is Robbie Williams with Escapology, it's the first week that album is #1 as it was beaten by a Dutch act the past 2 weeks.

On the singles chart the news is a bit less positive. In its seventh week Electrical Storm drops twelve places to #35. I hope the single can complete a run of 10 weeks, but I'm a bit sceptical about it.
Here is the chart run for the single (2-11-02):
4-4-10-16-26-35-47

There are no other U2 singles on the chart. The top of the charts seems to be immovable as for a sixth week Nelly & Kelly are #1 with Dilemma (and Christina Aguilera is for a fifth week, I think, #2 with Dirrty).

C ya!

Marty

Still #4 in Italy in its 6th week

italian chart run so far:

(16*)-1-1-2-4-4

* charting of the 1st week is due to the particular italian release of cds: every new cd that has to be issued on monday is published on friday of the previous week

European top 20

In week 5 U2 holds at No 3 - a magnificent achievement given the glut of high profile new releases this past 4 weeks.

Sting/Doctor Who - I have now found the website with this (and related) info and will post details later.

I have the SoundScan report from Melissa. But I have been either busy or lazy. I will post some numbers as soon as I can.

In the meantime, anyone interested in doing some week-to-week listings of the numbers (both chart positions and sales, if applicable) of the releases in various countries?

U.S. SoundScan Numbers

I don't have time to make the post I wanted to, so instead, I'll just post last week's SoundScan numbers (for U.S. sales) and you can all make your own judgments. One point of interest is that if the sales for the two "Best Of" albums were combined, it would be charting rather high.

U.S. Catalog SoundScan Numbers

Here are the U.S. Catalog numbers. Note that once again the top selling Catalog album is over 130,000 copies! Holiday music has that effect. Still, overall catalog sales are nicely up - with the #200 album selling close to 4,000 copies. The 80's "Best Of" and ATYCLB both hold their own this week. With ATYCLB having another strong week of sales, it has now definitely crossed the 4 million mark in copies sold to actual consumers - regardless of any estimates we might have done.
