October 11, 20178 yr Is XO Tour Life3 (or whatever it's called) still outside the Top 40? *hopes* It was at #41 on Monday’s update so it has more likely snook back in
October 11, 20178 yr Fascinating how well the live Aha album us doing, holding up better thanthe Darkness who only sold 500 copies in 2 days
October 11, 20178 yr Looking more like Ed will nick the #2 spot from Giggs, if he does it will be the first time the weekly move for the Album is more than 1 place (since the first week). Some of the Album new entries are holding up better than expected, The Darkness look sure to make Top 10, still wonder whether Tom Petty's Greatest Hits Album can push Jason Manford's Album out of Top 10 - hope so, these Albums from comedians/actors are preventing progress from genuine Musicians.
October 11, 20178 yr Author Where is LWYMMD (presume RFI is not too 40) plz :wub: 14 / not top 40 Is XO Tour Life3 (or whatever it's called) still outside the Top 40? *hopes* 37
October 11, 20178 yr A lot of xmas albums begin to be released in October to build momentum. Buble released his around the final week of October and debuted at no1 before falling but recovering in December and never leaving he top 5, although he was and is huge. These RPO albums are into their third year so this may be having an effect now with this series. So there is a chance it may disappear before late November but Kylie and Rod Stewart have done well with xmas editions since Buble so we shall have to wait and see. There may be a xmas special lined up for December! It debuted at 3
October 11, 20178 yr Miley #26 Demi #28 So Miley has fallen two places since Monday and Demi has gained two places. I wonder who'll be higher come Friday

There may be a xmas special lined up for December! None of those albums were released this early though, Buble was another 2 weeks, Rod Stewart's 3 weeks and Kylie was mid-November. This just feel at least 2 weeks too early, were not even that close to Halloween yet. There is a danger that this album could debut very low and just get forgotten about, its too early and its not like Elvis is gonna do a few performances in November/December to build it back-up.
October 12, 20178 yr There is a danger that this album could debut very low and just get forgotten about, its too early and its not like Elvis is gonna do a few performances in November/December to build it back-up. As mentioned earlier in the thread, the Deluxe Edition is out on the 24th November and this will be when the Promo kicks in - this version is all ready in the Top 20 Pre-order chart and will comfortably propel Album to Top 5 at that time just before Christmas. I do wonder whether it will do as well as previous RPO Albums though especially as there would appear to be more competition with Christmas Albums than ever this year (I agree the Roy Orbison Album may just outperform it).
October 12, 20178 yr I hate when artists do that release an album just to release a deluxe version a year later but to release a deluxe version less than 2 months later that'd criminal and just plain greedy of the record company basically trying to get you to buy it twice

October 12, 20178 yr The record company knows Elvis fans will buy anything Elvis so they can get away with it. If there was a new album of him burping and farting for 12 tracks they'd buy it.
