hesser Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 3 different versions of THRILLER are in the iTunes top 10. Could it be #1 on the BB 200 next week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afrolito Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I was sort of thinking the same thing. His catalog is gonna go through the roof in sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucy Goosie Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Is it eligible? It will top the catalog chart but will it even be allowed on the BB 200? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaddysMuff Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Oh, he'll be clogging up the charts within the next week or so. There's no doubt about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etips Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 He's ruling iTunes. It will be interesting to see what the charts will look like in the up and coming weeks. I can imagine that the record industry is probably frantic right now, pushing back slated releases so that they aren't overshadowed by his catalog.

jonski43 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Chris Moyles, Radio 1's breakfast DJ played Man in the Mirror and it started appearing in iTunes top 100 almost instantly. I suspect the top ten will look very different next Sunday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whyme? Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I wouldnt be surprised if the Itunes singles top 10 is filled with MJ songs next week. the big hits can easily sell 100k plus each Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Johnkm Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Definitely next week there will be hoardes of entries in the charts, probably a few of the bigger hits this week too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtzlplk Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I am delighted that MAN IN THE MIRROR is at the forefront... it is my most admired Jackson song... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braby Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Is Man In The Mirror "the chosen one" merely because of the Chris Moyles effect? Didn't think it was one of his more popular singles, only peaked at number 21 on first release. For the chart boffs, there are now 9 MJ tracks in the Top 40 on UK iTunes. MITM up to #7, could very likely be the 1100th UK number one. NEVER seen anything like this to happen to the single charts in this country. Chart purists are arguing it makes a mockery of the current system, when so many old MJ tracks will obliterate the official Top 10 in the next few weeks. But this is a one-off so see no need to change the rules AGAIN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futurelover06 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 "Man In The Mirror" is also the leading track on US iTunes. I thought "Billie Jean" or "Thriller" would have been the top chosen MJ song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolidayGuy Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Incredible with just one day of impact, the gains compared to one week ago. Keep in mind that these totals don't take into account some formats like 80s-oriented channels, Rhythmic AC, etc. I've listed tracks with 100+ spins in the last week.

StrawberryBounce12 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Looks like he's dominating Amazon too Michael Jackson Rules Entire Top 15 on Amazon Album Chart Michael Jackson is experiencing the celebrity popularity death bump in an incredible way. On Amazon's top 15 best selling compact discs, The King of Pop is living up to his name as he has each of the top 15 best selling albums on the popular website. His Mp3's are also selling a staggering pace. The top selling album on the site is currently the 25th anniversary edition of Thriller which was a reworking of 1983's top selling album that hit stores last year. His other legendary albums are also in the top 10 including #2 Off the Wall and #3 Bad with compilations of his greatest hits right behind those two popular albums. http://www.clevelandleader.com/node/10462 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
promise to try Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 well, everything it´s normal, he has an incredible back catalogue.I´m happy to see that man in the mirror is "the chosen one" as somebody has posted.After all the things that surrounded his music, the song that people are buying the most is one without him on the video, cheap...a great song, people are buying a great song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't think it was one of his more popular singles, only peaked at number 21 on first release. It's a very well known classic track. Bad had sold so much in the UK by the time Man In The Mirror came out, that it would never do well in the chart. Not to mention that there was no proper video...

Guest Topaz Scorpio Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 So I know that his albums cannot rechart on the Top 200, but can his singles reappear on the Hot 100 between the digital sales and airplay? If so he will likely dominate the chart next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernatural Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 also of note at amazon: Definitive Stevie Wonder #37 Best of Prince #52 Immaculate Collection #108 I'd say these got a boost from those buying MJ CDs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolidayGuy Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 His songs aren't being actively promoted, so, no, they won't chart on the Hot 100. He will dominate Hot 100 Recurrent Singles, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will dominate Hot 100 Recurrent Singles, though. which I think is a crock, he deserves to rechart on both the hot 100 and Albums chart. Somehow I think BEP wouldn't mind if MJ knocked them out for a week or two, if anything, they'd probably support the idea since MJ was such an important artist.
