It would be fantastic should Beautiful World make 3 million sales.

It will eventually, they play Patience and Shine enough on TV

Could take up to 2 years but it would still be great.

Im not sure, it will take that long, BW has sold quite well consistently since release. All it takes is for it to be reduced again, or one of the singles to be played on XF/SCD or something, and albums always sell well before the tour.

X Factor and Strictly and shows alike come nearer the year end so a boost from such a show would be ages away suggesting it would take a while for the album to make 3 million sales. I know the album continues to sell and resurfaces at different prices which is a great help, furthermore, another tour is a long while off just yet. Reviewing the current sales climate reflects it will take a while for Beautiful World to reach the 3 million summit as if a number 100 album sells 1,000 copies or less i dread to think what a number 500 album would sell in a 7 day period in the current climate.

Yes judging by the sales we are seeing right now it will take a while but once its gets there is the main thing, 3 million would be just great.

Sales are just terrible at the minute, I didnt think sales were ever that low especially for the top 10 albums, should they decrease even further 5,000 sales would almost see an act achieve a top 10 album which is simply shocking.
