QUOTE(BrookeOlivia @ Nov 26 2018, 01:24 PM)  Any chance of climbing during the week? What are the sales? It should manage to go to #5 QUOTE(caseclosed @ Nov 26 2018, 01:26 PM) Is that bad? It's not amazing, given their last album was still #1 in its second week, but it seems like a really busy week and their promo wasn't as good this time round. So it's not terrible. Mumford who beat them last week are down to #12, their last two albums went 1-2 and 1-1. |

I'm calling this a success. Their promo has been very poor in comparison to SOTME atm, and mix that in with a big week for OAP fave releases (Alfie Boe, Roy Orbison Philharmonic, Cliff Richard & a 2nd week Bublé) as well as new Take That and a 6 year awaited Rita album, it's great going imo.

I wouldn't go as far to say it was "very poor" promo at all, not even in comparison to the last album. I do agree that the album has still been a success so far though. Perhaps we expected higher first week sales but I think we all anticipated this era would be a step down from the massive success of Glory Days. The album is bound to stick around and gain strong Christmas sales and I'm fairly sure it'll be reclimbing the chart in the New Year and get to #1. I'm not worried at all by how things are going.

8 is good. It will most likely go back to the top 5 once the newbies start falling during the week.

Top of the Pops Christmas Special (BBC One) Top of the Pops New Year Special (BBC One) The Story of Top of the Pops 1987 (BBC Four) The Story of Top of the Pops 1987 (BBC Four) Ideally they'd be invited for both BBC One shows, but I fear with Jade's family situation they might not commit to more promo. |

Always confused me how their US peaks have got lower with each album... I was under the impression that right now would be the biggest they've ever been over there.
Crazy to think their first two albums were Top 10s! |

It's a shame their success has got smaller and smaller bur kudos to them for what they have achieved though. Have they actually promoted this at all in the USA? |

Damn, 40 really is a disappointing debut for them, I can't see them trying with the US this era which is a great shame.

Seriously? Were people honestly expecting more in the US? The fact it's top 40 considering their lack of profile there is good.
It'll be out the top 100 next week, possibly top 200. But for an act getting literally zero promotion or radio airplay and selling basically off name alone, despite no exposure? I'd consider it a success. I genuinely didn't think it'd do anything in the US. |

Top 40 without a CD is actually not that bad
