Is selling very well so far. biggrin.gif Shall be interesting to see how it keeps up with sales as WPSIATWIN wasn't really the best for seeing how it with-held with sales because there weren't any proper singles bar the first two released to promote the album. laugh.gif

They should become the 5th biggest selling album of the year so far, this week and then could possibly over take the Kaisers within the next few weeks! biggrin.gif

I actually think there will be 3 chart-eligible singles relaesed from this album, which should help, then of course headlining Glastonbury won't exactly harm album sales. But the great thing about AM is you never can predict what they will do next. Turner has already got a few songs ready for recording, so who knows what will come of them?

Are they new songs for album #3 or for b-sides?

No idea, tbh. They could be for yet another EP, or they may be shelved until the new album. Or they could be shelved for ever. I read a review by some Yank the other day stating that in their (current) 75 min show they more or less exhausted all their songs. It's a total nonsense, of course, I reckon AM have approx 50 songs they could play at any one time.

I think they might release another EP for the 3rd single, or maybe even the 2nd, shall just have to see though I guess.

AM have loads of songs that they could play, I mean they've played b-sides and EP tracks and the lot at gigs, and how many other bands do that? laugh.gif

Yeah they played Bigger Boys And Stolen Sweethearts at the last one I went to wub.gif and my mate couldn't believe it as it was her favourite song by them laugh.gif I still can't believe that was only a b-side then again that shows how good they are happy.gif

I hope they will! biggrin.gif happy.gif

But i'm not too sure. sad.gif I'm glad that they're not leaving it late to release a 2nd single as that will mean by the time the simgle is released it's still floating there or thereabouts in the chart, so it's not too hard to find a copy. laugh.gif

FA seems to be getting a lot of airplay already. It's got definite number 1 potential (just as long as they don't release it when 2 corporate divas decide to release a duet or summat).

I'm suprised how quickly they've got things going with the 2nd single to be honest. Most other artists seem to wait a good few weeks after the hype of the lead single has died down, before sending the 2nd single to radio, which must mean the video should be out in a few weeks. biggrin.gif

I know! ohmy.gif

In the midweeks the Manics were nearly 2k ahead of them, so it really suprised me to see them as #1 again this week. laugh.gif So the question begs, will it be able to match the 4 weeks at the top WPSIATWIN had? ohmy.gif

Unexpectedly surviving the release of new albums from Travis and the Manic Street Preachers to spend a third week at number one, the Arctic Monkeys’ second album, Favourite Worst Nightmare sold 39,488 copies last week, to take its 20 day tally to 349,078, writes Alan Jones.

That’s enough to move it up to fifth place in the year to date table, behind Amy Winehouse’s Back To Black (600,825), Take That’s Beautiful World (535,704), Life In Cartoon Motion by Mika (453,061) and Yours Truly, Angry Mob by The Kaiser Chiefs (388,877).

While that’s an impressive achievement, its sales so far still trail the massive 363,735 first week tally of the Arctic Monkeys’ 2006 debut Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not, and the fact that neither Travis nor the Manic Street Preachers - both acts with multiple platinum million sellers to their credit - were able to sell even 40,000 copies of their new albums on their first week in the shops underlines the frailty of the current market.

For the second time in as many weeks, the Manic Street Preachers snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Last week, their single Your Love Alone Is Not Enough surrendered its midweek lead to finish at number two, and this week their new album Send Away The Tigers does likewise. It was number one on all of the midweek sales flashes but its final sales of 38,769 place it just behind Favourite Worst Nightmare. The Manics’ 10th chart entry, it at least made a much better start than their last album, 2004’s Lifeblood, which debuted and peaked at number 13 on first week sales of 23,990, and has still sold fewer than 80,000 copies.

It got #1, but only just! laugh.gif I think it'll sell alright again this week, but I dunno whether it'll still be #1. Competition from Amerie and Linkin Park as well as maybe one of the other albums possibly climbing!

It's funny though, how the total cume of Favourite Worst Nightmare hasn't yet beat the first week sales of WPSIATWIN! laugh.gif

That's my thoughts exactly! laugh.gif

Nice to see it at #4 in the YTD chart though. Hopefully it shall over take the Kaisers album once FA is out. happy.gif

I originally hoped it would sell 100k, don't think it will now though. sad.gif
