RE 94 Jake Bugg - Shangri La

RE 200 Jake Bugg - Jake Bugg

Is Jake Bugg on tour?

 

 

Is Jake Bugg on tour?

 

He performed on American Idol last week.

 

He performed on American Idol last week.

I'm not impressed with the finalists this year, so I've stopped watching :lol:

 

 

 

Yay for a slight Jake Bugg resurgence! :cheer: Must check out his performance actually.

 

Loving how well Kacey Musgraves has done with her album, it's so very very good :wub:

Extremely busy week, I hope Beyoncé isn't pushed out of the top 10 next week :o I expect she'll reach 2x Platinum within 8/9 weeks, which would make this her first album to gain a higher certification than the preceding album ('4' took quite a while to scrape over a million and didn't push much further). Very much deserved of course, I really hope 'Partition' can keep it afloat and maybe even give it a shot at 3x Platinum in the future.

 

Interesting to note that '21' has spent over 3 years on the chart now and every single one of its 158 weeks has been spent top 100 :o Actually much more impressive longevity than in the UK where it keeps bobbing in an out, which is somewhat baffling!

Boo at the Frozen soundtrack. Thank God it's not eligible for the UK chart or I guess it would probably be doing similarly here (a la the Les Misérables soundtrack with its 4 weeks at #1).

 

What are the total sales of 'Bad Blood' like now? I see it seems to have had a decent chart run, hopefully it can eventually break into the top 10 (debuted at #11 and climbed back as high as #12 a few weeks back, though obviously currently falling again).

Britney Spears - Britney Jean (241,000)

 

I'd estimate she sold around 2,000 this week.

 

Danielle Bradbery sold approx 2,000 at #180 on the Top Current Albums chart, and Britney is 1 place below her at #181.

 

Neither are on the Billboard 200.

 

(Jake Bugg at #200 on the Billboard 200, is #153 on the Top Current Albums chart)
