I have most of them going back to sometime in 1997 in Music Week magazines, but other than that I've got the Airplay Charts book that was compiled by Lonnie Readioff, which has full chart runs of all the songs to make the Top 100 Airplay charts from November 1991 to August 2007. |

QUOTE(Robbie @ Dec 23 2014, 12:13 AM) I've got the Music Week chart report for that week. The albums sales were (with rounded figures which was usually all Alan Jones quoted back then): December 26, 1998 1. Ladies And Gentlemen - George Michael 309,000 2. I've Been Expecting You - Robbie Williams 178,000 3. Talk On Corners - The Corrs 156,000 5. Where We Belong - Boyzone 138,000 6. Step One - Steps 136,000 11. B*Witched - B*Witched 89,000 The top 37 artist albums all sold over 24,000 copies Compilations: 1. Now 41 - 186,000 2. Hits 99 - 140,000 4. Chef Aid - The South Park Album 64,000 Total album sales for the week: 6,787,000 Interesting to know...89k for #11! I remember they were sky high in 2005 as well because Kelly Clarkson was shifting 100k a week at the bottom of the top ten for a few weeks iirc. I actually received Hits 99 for Xmas that year, I didn't get Now 41 until years later until I bought it for myself! Even though Now 41 was stronger overall Hits kicked off with Cher's Believe on Disc 1 and Corrs' So Young on Disc 2 so I can definitely see why I was bought that! |

QUOTE(Dasher @ Dec 23 2014, 11:27 PM) Christmas week 2005 Will Young sold 132,109 to end up at No 13 It was a bumper week for album sales in Christmas week 2005 - in total 10,581,571 albums were sold which I believe is the highest ever weekly figure, though Christmas week in 2000 and 2006 came close. The top 5 artist albums all sold over 200,000 with the top 16 selling over 100,000 and the top 98 all sold over 10,000.

I wonder why 2005 saw such incredible album sales being achieved? I seem to remember that albums were relatively expensive back then. Sugababes & Pussycat Dolls albums being reduced to £7.99 was quite a bargain for the time and saw both achieve huge sales increases in the Top 10 in early December. At the expense of Girls Aloud who sold nearly 82k to enter at #11. Their 2 CD version was retailed at £16.99.

It was also to do with Christmas day being a Sunday so it had a full Christmas week to rack up the sales, economy booming etc

Then again, Sony shouldn't have released it at the same time as NOW 41 |
