the album is now the 9th best seller of the year :yahoo:

 

That's great news! Is there a link anywhere?

its in the chart forum under estimated yearly sales. at worst next week he should manage another 25,000 i hope.

Number 28 on Itunes albums - he was on 70 at the New Year - goes to show how strong supermarket sales are.

 

Also, it's the first time I've seen him on Amazon number 1.

 

Looks like he's going to number one on Sunday! Who knows? He might even be there for several weeks!

That is a great jump on itunes and hopefully physical sales have received a similar jump, im so so hoping he is number 1 on Sunday.

No2 in the midweek. 5,000 behind. Do you think he'll be able to catch up?

The midweek could only have two days' impact since his New Year gig, plus Face to Face has gone straight into the A list on Radio 2 playlist, so it could be tight.

Doesn't make sense to me that she can be 5k ahead. She's hardly lighting up the iTunes or amazon charts

What a shame, EG came out of nowhere.

 

Has now sold 526,000 copied in 6 weeks

so so wanted him to be number 1,still sales are goid and number 2 aint bad at all.

I suppose next week will be his last chance really before new albums start to be released. Either way, he could of had a #1 album with 100,000 sales or a number 2 with over half a million sales. I know what the label will prefer!!

The TV special next week should help: Face to Face with Elton and Gary. Gary Barlow's dream of recording a song with superstar, Elton John, is documented with exclusive interviews and behind the scenes footage - only kidding!

I think the album has done enough to keep the label happy, from here on everything is a bonus. It is guaranteed double platinum status now, its just a question of how much more it can sell.

It's been a complete success! It's shown how relevant he still is and that he can sell just as much as Robbie as a solo artist. He's outsold TTC and he would be about level with Robbie had he released a week earlier (and would of also stopped Robbie debuting at #1)

 

Hope we see another studio album the year after the TT tour

What is great is he has manged his most successful album of his career over 15 years later which is a great achievement and it will result in us getting another solo album at some stage. 10 years ago if anyone said that they would be laughed at.

Yeah Gary has had his best selling solo album yet, Robbie is back on form and has his most successful solo record since (arguably) Intensive Care, and Mark has had his highest peaking solo album. Sets a good platform for the new TT record.

 

Gary is back at number 1 on amazon!

 

Looks like The Metro might be jumping the gun? http://metro.co.uk/2014/01/07/gary-barlow-...-years-4253558/

 

But saying that, his PR company just tweeted that Gary has gone Double Platinum (probably based on shipments) either way, great news!!

number 3 in the midweeks today so its holding on well considering its price is much higher than many others in the top 10.

I read on CeleBritain earlier (sorry I couldn't find the link) that Gary has agreed to release another solo collection in Nov 2015 as the label are keen to plug the gap in the usual 2 year TT album cycle now he's gone double platinum.

That information is available here :http://celebritain.com/ but I would take anything they say with a pinch of salt. They make it up as they go along. The sales they quote for Gary on their site are, in fact, Robbie's total sales. They're not the brightest.

 

I could not see how he would manage a new Take That album and solo album in the one year.

It would be the year after Pippa, so say 6 months after the stadium tour.
