No.2 debut in America, 1D had more Physical sales but JB had more digital sales.

 

Considering how good Purpose is, i'm pleased with them switching between 1 and 2 in the uk and us, tbh :cheer:

Individual song positions and downloads last week:

 

10 Perfect 35,149 (peak: #2)

37 Drag Me Down 15,232 (peak: #1)

68 History 8,458 (peak: #37)

72 Olivia 7,971

79 If I Could Fly 7,371

89 Never Enough 6,330

90 What A Feeling 6,305

93 Infinity 6,151 (peak: #36)

96 Hey Angel 5,749

99 Wolves 5,604

103 I Want To Write You A Song 5,372

104 Walking In The Wind 5,361

106 Long Way Down 5,096

The album is massively growing on me, the hooks are evidently not up there with FOUR but it is a very nice album, End of the Day is my new second favourite album track, Olivia of course the #1. Will be a massive shame fo see them go,

Can't believe they're still capable of shifting 400k in the US. That's impressive.

Finally got around to my first listen of it. I'm a bit disappointed with it. :( Maybe some of the tracks will present themselves with further listens, but I'm very underwhelmed by most of them. The clear stand out track for me is 'What A Feeling'.

Official US sales are 459000 albums sold which is 80k more than Four.

Excellent outcome! Although bear in mind that that figure includes "Track Equivalent Albums" and "Stream Equivalent Albums" :heehee: Pure album sales are 402k, which is still an increase on FOUR :D

Maybe I'm alone but I prefer this album to Four, it's hook after hook to my ears, Olivia, What A Feeling, Perfect, Never Enough and History are all up there among their best for me.

Sales for Australia are 34,860.

Where did the album debut in America. Very impressive sales.

No.2

No.2 is wonderful, but as its their last album (for now :wacko: ) it would have been lovely to depart having 5 out 5 straight American number 1 albums.

EXCITING NEWS

 

The boys have filmed CARPOOL KARAOKE with James Corden for The Late Late Show to be aired in the US! :cheer: Some amazing past carpool karaoke videos:

 

 

Olivia has massively hit me this week tbh :wub: The chorus is irresistible. Fully loving What a Feeling now also.

I find the run from Long Way Down to History is certainly the album's peak, particularly Never Enough, Olivia and What A Feeling after one another (some of their best work aah heaven) and WAF needs to be a single but no another great single opportunity missed again :angry:

Long Way Down is the only one that hasn't really clicked with me actually but the run from Never Enough to History is sooo good. I'd really want What a Feeling to be a single in a normal campaign but this one's different really due to the break :(

I must be the only one here who does like every song on the album :unsure:
