700,000 will happen, the Take That return can do nothing but add sales to his solo album, combine with price reductions 700,000 is a cert by the end of 2014 i believe.

Number 31 in the midweeks down 14 places. Should manage top 30 in time for Sunday which is fine considering there is no promotion etc.

Gary will no doubt recover for the remainder of the week and re-claim a top 30 position (between 26 and 28) on the official chart.

He's just received an award for selling out 17 arena dates and selling 165,000 tickets in the process. Have a lool on his twitter page for the picture!

Excellent achievement. It sounds a bit corny but i am so proud of him and how he has turned his career around. I know the solo success is on the back of the Take That success but it did not fully translate last time, it has truly worked this time. The success of the Since I Saw You Last era guarantees us at least 1 more solo album from Gary. After the whole disaster of what what happened with 12 months 11 days i never thought I would ever get more Gary solo material. Sing and Shame were wonderful but Since I Saw You Last has been the icing on the cake.

 

I really enjoyed his first 2 solo albums and additionally i enjoy Since I Saw You Last, the success of SISUL has made the era that little bit more special. How do you rank his three solo albums to date?

 

01 Since I Saw You Last - Strongest Tracks> Let Me Go, This House, Face to Face and Since I Saw You last

02 12 Months 11 Days - Strongest Tracks > Lie to Me, Yesterdays Girl and For all That You Want

03 Open Road - Strongest Tracks > Forever Love, Open Road and So Help Me Girl.

 

Lie to me is still my favourite solo recording from Gary. Cancelling it as a single was a big mistake and an even bigger mistake was not launching 12 Months 11 Days with that single. I do believe that era would have turned out extremely different if Lie to Me launched the campaign.

Could not agree more, Pippa.

Thank you Bond Bug. I do believe many many fans think the same as we do. I sometimes wonder does Gary realise the love for Lie to Me by the fans.

The album has climbed to number 28 in todays Midweek placings.

a bit of a recovery in ireland this week, the album climbs 6 places to number 86.

Number 29 this week, hopefully it can stay top 40 next week now.

It should manage 1 more week, from here on i would predict the slope to exiting the chart begins.

Looks like the albums tally of units for last week were 2,500. Album sales for last week outside of Paolo Nutini are desperate.

not top 40 so far this week,hopefully he can creep back in by the end of the week.

The album has not showed up in the Tuesday or Wednesday midweek top 40.

Hopefully he can creep back in! As we said before he usually improves on midweek indications. Still its done well as it is, anything from here on is a bonus.

I believe he will steal the number 40 position at the last second!

How right you were! It's at 38!

Nice to see it still top 40 even if its possibly the last for the time been.

Wonderful it managed to retain another week within the top 40. The James Cordon interview chat on BBC last night surely can only benefit the album so a slight climb could happen this week.

Oh my sweet lord, Since I Saw You Last is number 6 in the mid week chart update. I really really did not see this coming, the album will certainly be a climber this week if though the impact of the BBC show will trail off as the week continues. It be be wonderful if the album could manage to stay top 10 and obtain sales of 8,000.

 

Take That - The Ultimate Collection is number 37 with various singles making a return to the iTunes chart.
