Guest Johnkm Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 Even if its #40, thats better than being out of the top 40
Guest tir69 Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 Wonder if it's the sales effect! I think HMV did a nice price and this is the reason
debord Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 Even if its #40, thats better than being out of the top 40 Apparently it’s higher than it was on Sunday. And if that’s after 1 day of the HMV sale, then I think we can expect it to rise further after today and Saturday.
Queen Bitch Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 So it may well do 300,000 in the UK before the year's out.

So, we could be looking closer to #30 then?...hopefully this helps it for a bit longer, until Miles Away gets into full swing
markm Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 I just did a quick price check HC is being sold at the following prices HMV £5.99 SendIt £6.89 Asda £6.93 Amazon UK £5.98 Base.com £7.95 PowerPlayDirect £7.99 iTunes (digital download) £7.99 Blah DVD £8.05 Tesco (Jersey) £8.93 Play.com £8.95 Zavvi £9.00
Guest Johnkm Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 ^ Those are all farily sensible prices
FedFed Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 wow... a low price is helping a lot Rihanna but not Madonna. Could be cause of disturbia? So why Warner doesn't do anything with Miles Away? stupid.....again
debord Posted September 20, 2008 Posted September 20, 2008 wow... a low price is helping a lot Rihanna but not Madonna. Could be cause of disturbia? So why Warner doesn't do anything with Miles Away? stupid.....again Eh? HMV is the only major music retailer in that list and its mid-price is already helping Hard Candy.
franxisco66 Posted September 20, 2008 Posted September 20, 2008 Rihanna's album has actually BEEN promoted, has 6-7 singles (3 of which are strong single)., a re-release, and IMO it is a better album than HC.
Guest Johnkm Posted September 20, 2008 Posted September 20, 2008 Rihanna has a massive positive buzz, huge promo, many successful singles etc. Madge had little to no promo for Hard Candy and a mediocre reception for this album, so HMV's price is going to nothing but good, its still not super cheap, so people think it needs to be reduced as it isnt selling, its a sensible price for it.
aeroco Posted September 20, 2008 Posted September 20, 2008 About time HC was reduced. It may be well into the top 30 by the time Sunday's chart is announced.

Guest Johnkm Posted September 20, 2008 Posted September 20, 2008 rihanna will be gone in 2 years Quite probably she will be
Alexz Posted September 20, 2008 Posted September 20, 2008 I don't anymore think Rihanna will be gone soon.

Guest Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Rihanna is selling like crazy everywhere...In a few weeks she will have the biggest album released during 2007 worldwide.

Nightshade Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Any estimate on Hard Candy's cumulative sales? Has it broken 290,000 yet?
Zezwer Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Rihanna's album has actually BEEN promoted, has 6-7 singles (3 of which are strong single)., a re-release, and IMO it is a better album than HC. It's not better, but it's still a good album. The singles though have been stronger, at least Umbrella & Don't Stop the Music.

I didn't see last week's X Factor, how was this part of the show? And is this Faith Hill's biggest-ever UK hit aside from I'll Be Missing You?
