Posted by: suggy 2nd May 2006, 11:13 AM

I've updated the single chart runs, it's different now with the new downloads etc, so this is actually Will's second week in the official chart and I've included his sales from the first week, but I've kept them seperate.

Posted by: suggy 15th May 2006, 09:40 PM

Updated with sales, thanks to KP.

Posted by: Graham 6th June 2006, 01:58 PM

I dont like 'From Now On' I dunno the stuff from the 2nd album onwards is jus so more creative and touching
Yes I have found my way here and I'm a closet Will fan

Posted by: suggy 6th June 2006, 02:42 PM

Well it's good to have you on board Graham and there's no need to be a closet fan, shout it out loud and proud.

Posted by: truly talented 6th June 2006, 02:43 PM

Welcome to the Will forum Graham.

Will has said himself in interviews that he views FC as his first real album. His voice on FNO is brilliant as always but I'm sure his input was fairly minimal. With subsequent albums we are seeing more & more of the real Will & his songwriting is improving as he gains more confidence.

Have you listened to the B sides on the ATL single?

Can't wait to see what he has in store for us in the future.

Posted by: BanYellowm+m's 6th June 2006, 02:57 PM

hi graham

welcome to Wills world we are a very friendly bunch here. only a couple of us bite but dont worry suggy keeps a close eye on them

Here's the latest sales update.

Posted by: truly talented 11th July 2006, 07:44 AM

I find it amazing that LRN is still clocking up sales after all this time. It's certainly proving to be a timeless classic.

Posted by: Toni 11th July 2006, 03:58 PM

I think after its entry outside the top 10, WAI has done better than expected, to still hang on in there.

The sales for ATL are quite pleasing, too.

Posted by: suggy 21st August 2006, 08:42 PM

Latest singles update from KP.
Who Am I - 851 copies sold last week. 62,842 to date. At #84 on the singles chart.

All Time Love - 292 copies sold last week. 111,391 to date. At #167 on the singles chart.

Posted by: chrysalis 22nd August 2006, 12:31 PM

Thanks Suggy - brilliant that LRN is still selling, albeit small amounts. It's almost 3 years old. Shall we have a party for it in November?

Posted by: truly talented 22nd August 2006, 02:08 PM

I'm up for a party chrysalis especially if LRN is still racking up sales by then.

Posted by: chrysalis 3rd September 2006, 07:06 PM

Don't know where to post this, but I've just read that WAI has re-entered the Top40Hits @ #35 (19 weeks) (sales and airplay).

Posted by: Graham 7th October 2006, 02:08 AM

I haven't looked in here for agessssss.

I really am loving 'All Time Love' again atm it's just such a great song <3
Can someone explain the concept of the video to me though I wonder everytime I see it is it about persecution of homosexuality if so why is that woman in it with the viel on her face?

Posted by: suggy 7th October 2006, 10:37 AM

I think it's about censorship and repression in society Graham, so it just about covers everything I guess and even today in some countries the penalty is death if you go against that countries regime. That's my take on it anyway.

Posted by: Graham 7th October 2006, 01:50 PM

Oh right... I just think it's very clever and thought provoking I can't seem to work it out. I was like thinking that Will was in a relationship with the guy and that woman wanted him or something I don't know

Posted by: suggy 7th October 2006, 03:44 PM

Well there's that as well, Will did say to take your own interpretation from the video.

Posted by: Sweetwilliamfan 7th October 2006, 04:17 PM

Oh yes a three way.. ..the hand caressing gave that away don't you think?..Will brought the girl into their relationship at that moment...the bit afterwards when she's sitting on the floor half dressed watching the two men connect..it's Will and the guy who are lovers..but she is drawn in..she wants him for herself..she can't have him so she reports him to the government.. thats how they end up in court..
he's gay..he's political...he doesn't run..he makes a stand and dies for the freedom cause..
thats my take on it...not that i've thought about it much you understand.
by the way...the hand scene is amazing..subtle and erotic....the way the guys fingers reach down to Will's. .oh my! ..i had such thoughts.

Posted by: char1sma 6th January 2007, 04:15 PM

all time love sold very well overall..

Posted by: BanYellowm+m's 6th January 2007, 06:03 PM

I wonder how can you get the singles now? There must be a way obviously, but I don't seem to be able to find any singles left in music shops. Any advices??

Posted by: suggy 11th January 2007, 11:54 AM

Hi luneara, a belated Happy New Year to you, you can download any of Will's songs on Itunes or any other music download site.

Posted by: luneara 11th January 2007, 07:37 PM

Ooh, so that's how you do it. Thank's for telling me

Posted by: munchkin 25th June 2009, 05:38 PM

Thanks for updating TT - but it's RyRy (Ryan) who is doing them. It's good to have up-to-date figures at last.

Posted by: truly talented 25th June 2009, 05:50 PM

Thanks Ryan.

I've left the You & I sales that we received from Haven. Not sure which are right so I've plumbed for the largest.

Posted by: munchkin 25th June 2009, 06:33 PM

Yes I noticed that If Ryan's figures are right then it makes you wonder how many other acts' totals are wrong too - Maybe some of the figures were 'shipped' sales in the absence of solid figures.

Posted by: truly talented 29th October 2009, 03:14 PM

Updated with latest figures from Andy70 & munchkin for the alert.

Posted by: suggy 4th November 2009, 03:34 AM

Updated, but I'm not sure about the debut date/total sales etc.
