Guest Hafo Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Les Midweeks - June 10 Singles Mint Royale, which received a boost from its use in the final of ITV1’s Britain’s Got Talent, is more than 3,000 sales ahead of its nearest competitor, Rihanna’s Take A Bow (Def Jam). Elsewhere, the singles top ten looks likely to remain largely static, with Feeder set to score the highest new entry. Their We Are the People (Echo) should challenge for a top ten placing. 1 Mint Royale 2 Rihanna 3 Ne-Yo 4 Sara Bareilles 5 Ting Tings Top 10 Chris Brown Top 15 Feeder Top 20 Alex Gaudino Top 30 We Are Scientists Mystery Jets Fall Out Boy Maroon 5 Music Top 40 Radiohead Little Man Tate Jordin Sparks Albums 1 Fratellis 2 Duffy 3 Paul Weller 4 Neil Diamond 5 Radiohead Top 10 Scooter Top 15 Rihanna N*E*R*D Lil' Wayne Top 20 Guns N' Roses Emmylou Harris Paul Simon Top 30 Gabriella Cilmi Journey Top 40 Nickelback Joan As Policewoman Mystery Jets Jason Mraz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hafo Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Madonna wise: 4M is just outside the Top 10 now HC is a non-mover. Hope it goes up as the week progresses... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paradise Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 good to see the album sticking, people are really negative about it, but other high profile albums like the kooks, mariah, the feeling have fared much much worse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aeroco Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 good to see the album sticking, people are really negative about it, but other high profile albums like the kooks, mariah, the feeling have fared much much worse! Don't know about the Kooks but Mariah's last album sold less than half of COADF in the UK. In fact Mariah has not been a big album seller in the UK since the 90s. The Feeling have had one hit album and have struggled with their second album but they have no massive expectation. The expectations for Madonna are much higher, based on her own tremendous history throughout her career. Hence the dissapointment over HC sales so far.

Queen Bitch Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 HC is a non-mover. Hope it goes up as the week progresses... Well that's SOMETHING. I'm wondering whether the lack of an ad campaign has something to do with the deal she's just signed with the mobile phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markm Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 COLDPLAY - NEW COLDPLAY ALBUM SET TO SMASH SALES RECORDS Coldplay's fourth album, Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends, is likely to become the biggest selling album of the year, according to online retailer Play.com. The entertainment website says it expect the four-piece's new release to achieve its biggest pre-sale order ever. Customers have been snapping up copies of the Brian Eno-produced album at the rate of one every minute during peak times and it looks set to exceed the sales figures of the hugely successful Spirit, by X Factor winner Leona Lewis. And while Violet Hill, the first single from Chris Martin and co, was released as a free download, Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends is currently receiving more pre-orders than the rest of Play.com's entire top 40 pre-order albums combined. It has also seen 20 per cent more pre-orders than Lewis's Spirit had at the same point. "People talk about the death of the music industry, but this proves that the right title can still break records," said Helen Marquis, Play.com's head of music. "The new album should be the biggest of the year, but with upcoming new albums from the likes of Dido, Amy Winehouse, Take That and Oasis, this is going to be a phenomenal year for British music." She added: "We have not seen an album pre-order to quite these levels before. The previous record holder was Leona Lewis." Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends is released on June 12th. 10/06/2008 00:01:01 http://www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/artic...records_1070918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what happens when you have a huge TV/Radio advertising campaign and do plenty of high profile TV promo. Warners really weren't fucked Hard Candy after all.

Guest Danny86 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 ^ Exactly. And it is being released in spring, with illegal dowloads etc etc.... These reasons to justify low sales are tiring because they apply to everyone On the other hand, Coldplay's previous album sold twice as much as COADF, and no Madonna studio album ever sold that much, so I say the comparison with Coldplay is quite irrelevant.

franxisco66 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 ^ I am sure Coldplay's last album will not sell 1/4 of X and Y (as HC will rpob do) . If it does then I will consider it a flop to. Sales havent drop 75% in 3 yrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
