Seems like he won't get the Christmas No.1 album as Harry Styles and Stormzy are ahead. Maybe No.3. Depends how Rod does.

would not have expected it, despite it is still only the beginning of the week. He got his 13th number one and I hope that he will sell well again this week.

I wonder how many albums are sold entirely including Germany etc. App 200000?

Rod Stewart is number one on iTunes and Amazon, Robbie 9 on iTunes and four on Amazon - so maybe he will end up number four?

 

Hopefully good sales wherever he is in the chart. B-)

 

Where's Alex? He'll know sales so far in Europe/Australia. ^_^

The Wembley gig was great tonight. A mix of songs from The Christmas Present and some more unusual past hits. Great graphics on the screen. Great atmosphere. He said he could feel the love. 💖 He paid tribute to Rod Stewart and his album and had a special guest on at the end. He looked gorgeous in red too.

Rod takes over at No.1 today. Shame. You'd think Robbie's Christmas album would sell more this week.

I still think Robbie's Special is a reason why sales are slightly dropped.

You remember we looked at his schedule and it looks very clever by Sony.

In fact he could be Number 1 since his second week.

But after this 'performance' people slightly lost their interest.

 

But! I think Rob could overtake Harry and Stormzy but let's the today's figures firstly.

 

Also Rob is on the way to be Album Number 8 of the year! It's better than I thought.

 

Also Rob is on Rod's album, don't forget about it so technically he gets his cake as well ;)

 

Also Robbie keeps and safes some great songs of the album from audience to next years. And I count this as a clever decision too: when you have an album full of so many songs you don't need to promote them all as a desperate guy for one campaign only - when you have done so great and long work you can use the result for years. I wish it to Rob and his team.

 

Also he has some promo this weekend so there is a chance to finish 2019 as Number 1.

 

So I think it's a nice campaign and he should be happy.

I think you're absolutely right Alex.

 

 

If he had put on a show on TV like the one I saw last night at Wembley - he would have continued to sell like he was in week two. That TV show was a complete wasted opportunity and he's paid the price in lost sales.

I have not seen it yet, was it that bad? Or because of the so much discussed incident I saw twitter exploding about?

His sales probably are going to drop now, because people buying the album would only get a week or so of using it (no one is going to be gifted a Christmas album on the day itself!)

The actual singing of the songs was fine Elisabeth - it was just the fillers in between. Used up time that could have been filled with more songs.

Don't know sales for this week but looks like he will be number four for his fourth week. :)

I think so, yes.

By the way, they finally set a discount for CD. Coldplay did it already on 1st week, Rod did and does it already 2 weeks, even Stormzy. But Robbie just now.

It's additional jocker for being in tops as well.

 

I still think there is a chance to be Number 1, maybe 2 next week.

Two shows + movie with one more new song this weekend should helps Robbie.

 

Anyway, looking for 200k sales in UK by Friday :)

Graham Norton tomorrow night :)

Since forthcoming weekend until Christmas Day there will be series of Robbie's concerts on European TV channels and not only.

 

In Poland - an exclusive concert to them.

In Germany, Finland, Sweden, Italy + Mexico + Australia - ITV Special -_-

Maybe some more countries will be added.

 

So I hope they will change a montage for 'special' concert =)))

Anyway, it's a good way of promo and will stay on top thru Xmas period.

 

Also he will come to Australia in January time frame.

Good to see that he has performed so many different ones.

 

I would like to hear him sing Coco's Christmas Lullabye - I love that one. :wub:

 

Didn't realise he still had so much promo left - good for him - he's worked hard for this album.

 

 

This is just the best song , I love it :wub:
