It has indeed left the top 100 :o I demand an immediate recall of Parliament to discuss this national emergency.

 

'Pompeii' is still there though (even climbing) so no need for alarm. :D

Poor Sat's. :(

 

Not the biggest fan of 'What are you waiting for' but I think it deserved higher.

'Salute' the album is so close to dropping out, which is a shame as it's had an unbroken run in the top 100 so far (I've just noticed that it's ahead of Midnight Memories too). Price reduction please! Nice to see the single having a bit of longevity as well - it's well outperformed their other post-album singles in that regard.

And Pompeii is a better song :D

'Salute' (album) has beaten the top 100 longevity of 'DNA' (also album), and that includes a couple of re-entries for the latter. Not bad really. I don't know where it's at sales-wise but I'd say on the whole it's been a very successful second era for them. Let's just hope that when they go into album 3 they don't mess it up like they so nearly did with 'Word Up!' :P

I hadn't realised that - great to hear! I believe 'Salute' is on ~260k sales, so still lagging behind 'DNA' quite considerably, which is a bit shocking if it has indeed outperformed it longevity-wise. Have album sales really declined that rapidly? :o Yeah they need to further up their game for album 3, although a lead single in the same league as 'Move' would suit me fine. :heart:

DNA wasn't platinum sales wise until the 4th quarter last year when basically every supermarket had it for £5 and it spent all the lead up to xmas floating around the middle of the top 200 racking up decent sales.

 

The same should probably happen with Salute.

Richard and Adam did very well

Great to see Zombie by Jamie T in the top 75!!

Are streams included to sales to songs before streaming was included or just by each week?

Was One Republics album re-released? Great to see it finally get a top 10 peak.

Yup. Kinda surprised it never managed a top 10 peak before. I'm sure their next album will chart higher than this anyway even if it doesn't have a big hit single.

Yeah, on paper OneRepublic seem like the album-selling type. Surprised that 'Native' has only managed 150k given the prominence of 'Counting Stars'.
