Only 35 copies of 'Christmas' sold last week? Less than one a state.

 

Where is America's christmas spirit? In September.

 

Surprised that 'Mimi' has had more weeks on than the last 4 albums combined.

 

Thanks for this Kalen

No problem! And that albums sales will SOAR at christmas, and Glitter is doing good :o

Yeah I'd like to see sales for 'Merry Christmas' and the compilations nearer Christmas.

Yep me too, And AIWFCIY was number 1 last year on Itunes US and near that on UK itunes :wub:... would it be eligable to chart from UK downloads :o?

I'm not sure of the new rules - when they come in and how they work exactly.

 

I don't know whether tracks which are more than a year old will still be disqualified. That's the issue with 'Christmas'.

 

We'll wait and see but I'd love her to have a surprise hit this year.

I think it should be allowed, because there is never a fluctuation of old songs enless they get re-released or something, I think it's a good idea to let past Christmas songs chart... Mariah may even get top 10 through downloads, I also think Sony should re-release this on CD single...

I'd like a second christmas album. But I don't see that happening.

Ooo me too! Even if it was just re-recorded versions of the older things with 1 or 2 new tracks or even the old songs with a few new songs, it won't happen though :(

No. I expect it's something Tommy made her do the first time anyway.

 

I want the single to chart this year though. I'll buy many copies of it as gifts for people

I want it to chart too, I'd love a remake of it, re sang by Mariah herself, which she could release as a physical single, so then the old and new versions would be eligable as downloads :D! She re-sang Santa Claus Is Coming To Town last year for the dualdisc of Merry Christmas so I don't see why she can't do this :o

There's a re-release or two every year.

Could be Mariah this year.

Let's hope, this is probably her best known song!

Great Chart Run for Mimi! :D

 

I don't think she'll ever outdo Music Box though. :lol: :(
