Yeah looking at the sales this week I was probably getting a bit carried away. Now only needs 3 weeks to match Salute's 40 weeks in the chart. Bear in mind that's 40 weeks in the top 100

Girl Group albums with most top 10 weeks in the UK.

 

#1 SPICE (43)

#2 Always & Forever (24)

#3 All Saints (23)

#4 Get Weird (20)

 

Up to 590k. It's actually possible it could go 2x Platinum on their anniversary

What's the full run so far?

2-5-6-4-6-6-6-6-6-8-14-15-18-15-8-8-8-10-7-9-9-13-15-8-12-10-15-15-16-9-12-21-23-20-17-17-19-21

Thanks ^_^

What an amazing chart run.

The fact it's still not dropped below number 23 is staggering. I'm beginning to wonder if we could manage a year in the Top 100

If the album can remain top 40 which i believe it will for a few more weeks they should achieve double platinum certification by the end of this month. :dance:

The last Girl band album to go double Plat must have been Girls Aloud's Out of Control, 8 years ago!

I believe it was. Down to Number 34 in yesterday's midweeks update

I am NOT here for that steep drop! Omg. :cry:

The album usually recovers in the later part of the week, based on that it may remain top 30.

It was inevitable that it would happen sooner or later.

Hopefully it can recover a little and stay top 30.

Hopefully it will. To be completely honest yes it is a bit of a dramatic drop from last week, but did anyone really think that we'd get to August with Top 30 still even a possibility?

I don't mind the drop. It's exceeded everyone's expectations. To think we're in Q4 and it's still top 10 in the year to end albums when most of its sales happened last year. I mean, slay.

Get Weird: Double Platinum Edition is coming

Is this confirmed?

For a moment there I thought you were being serious!

Actually - are you? :D

What were your sales expectations before GW was released? I personally thought somewhere between 200k-300k would be decent and anything above Platinum would be a good result. No way did I think it would exceed 600k+. It's amazing how well it's done.
