Ya i can see it coming later on in the year and if they can manage another rule the world size hit for the the deluxe album it will have a huge effect on sales, thats where circus lost out as it didnt get that later re release, had beautiful world not got the deuxe release it would have sold less than the circus.

BW though - has still sold a lot more outside the UK than Progress has - and without any help from the deluxe edition. I'm fairly surprised at how poorly Progress has sold outside the UK. Having Rob on board has done very little for its sales - despite it being a blinding album. Maybe they should have marketed it Rob & TT (outside the UK).

I meant Uk wise. I think what is more interesting about progress is its uk sales, on average its sales are roughly inline with the circus although progress is slightly ahead, but with robbie and take that been big album sellers in the uk it seems that alot of people who usually buy take that album buy robbie albums aswell and vice versa, cause if this isnt he case the sales would be far higher if you combined both. On saying that its a few years since robbie has managed such a huge selling studio album where as its the norm for take that since they returned.

#9 in Ireland this week down 4 places.

Week 10 in its chart life and progress drops just 2 places to #12 this week.

Weel 11 and Progress drops just 1 place to #10 in Ireland this week.

 

Uk its top 15 in the midweeks so its holding steady enough, hopefully between the brits and kidz been released we will see progress return to the top 10.

Offically #15 this week in the UK down just 3 places.

Progress is holding on quite well in Ireland, this week it drops just 1 place to #11.

Progress climbs 2 places to #13 in the UK this week

Progress returns to the top 10 this week climbing 3 places to number 10 :cheer:

Wow, how unexpected! Already a "Kidz" factor?

progress should shift close to 20,000 this week so its roughly about 80,000 away from 2 million UK sales.

Sales of 800k for Progress outside the UK. Pretty good. Together with UK sales, they'll have sold 3,5 - 4 million by the end of this year.

Thats not bad at all, good to see it selling outside the Uk, it really helps boost overall sales tally.

Progress is #24 this week down 4 places which is a big improvement on how it started out at the bginning of thweek where it was #37 in the first set of midweeks.

Robbie confirmed in an interview that Take That have sold over 3 million albums around Europe. With the tour coming and the re-release of Progress I expect Progress to sell between 3.5-4 million by the end of the year. That would be an amazing achievement.

That IS including UK and Ireland sales though.

So outside Uk and Ireland thats 1 million for europe, i havnt a clue of irish sales as irish sales in general are like top secret but i would say 50,000 would be its sales for ireland but i could be wrong as i really dont know what the highest selling album of the year sells but i think its less than 100,000.

Just out of interest how many x platinum is Progress in Ireland? The Circus was 8x and I read somewhere that Progress was their highest selling album in Ireland so any ideas?

To be honest i dont know although i did hear the same that progress is their best selling irish album.
