BuzzJack Platinum Member Joined: 6 April 2006 Posts: 13,813 User: 407	One Direction's Chart Highlights One Direction's fourth album "Four" debuts at #1 on sales on 387,000, making them just the 3rd act to debut at #1 with their first 4 albums (Britney Spears, DMX 5 albums), and the first group to do so. One Direction have racked up four #1 albums in just 2 years, 8 months and 1 week. Their first album, "Up All Night" debuted at #1 in March 2012 on sales of 176,175. Their second album, "Take Me Home" debuted on top in November 2012 with 539,665, while their third album "Midnight Memories" debuted at #1 on 546,230 in December 2013. "Four" registers the 3rd biggest sales week this year behind Taylor Swift (1,286,544 & 401,599 for "1989") and the largest for a group this year, only just ahead of Coldplay (382,665 for "Ghost Stories"). In fact, One Direction's sales are the biggest for a group in the last 12 months, since "Midnight Memories" debuted. They are the 4th act to reach #1 with their first four albums (Britney Spears, DMX 5 albums, The Monkees), and the 6th act to reach #1 with their first 4 studio albums (Beyonce 5 albums, Britney Spears, DMX 5 albums, The Monkees, The Kingston Trio 5 albums). This week's total album sales were 5.49 million - up +2% on last week and up +4% compared with same week last year. Approximately one in 14 of all albums sold last week was "Four". YTD stands at 215.01 million - down -12% on same point last year.

And while "Best Song Ever" isn't that great (the various cover versions sound so MUCH better), it's a better song than "Steal My Girl", IMO .

Probably not unless she gets amazing promo, but I think she should get somewhat close. 900k by year end? Could be Plat in ... 2016 in that case?

Yeah, I hope she manages it. I read she has a televised concert thing which should hopefully give it a good boost. I'd love her to do a bit of promo over here this time. Some great songs on that album.
