Looking at the 'Top Albums Sales' chart (old Billboard 200), 1,500 copies separate positions 2-6 :o

 

 

I can't believe over a million people have bought a compilation with a bunch of random old songs just because they were in a 'cool film'. OK a few of them are really good, but still. :blink:

It's album only but all the tracks can be bought individually off other albums.

 

Maybe the parents are buying the album :lol:
