Posted October 26, 200618 yr Reports coming in are that Rudebox is No.16 on US iTunes. :cheer: Lets hope it continues, could Rudebox be the album for America?
October 26, 200618 yr Author I think it is fab news. Surprisingly he does have quite a large fan base. Keeping fingers crossed it goes higher.
October 26, 200618 yr Author Good to see Canada in the list too. iTunes chart 26/10/06. UK #2 Holland #1 Sweden #1 Switzerland #1 Portugal #2 Austria #1 Norway #4 Luxembourg #1 Italy #3 Ireland #5 Greece #1 France #1 Finland #1 Spain #3 Germany #1 Denmark #1 Canada #14 Belgium #1 Australia #2 USA #16 thanks to purerobbie for the listing.
October 26, 200618 yr why oh dear Josh. if he was going to break america it would be nicer if he had a better song to break though
October 26, 200618 yr Author oh I see. I rather like Rudebox the single. Great beat. Wished there was more melody and music in it and less of Robbie rapping lol. even so. It is great live. You might breath a sigh of relief, or you might not Josh. It is for the album. Also doing well in Canada.
October 26, 200618 yr Great news on the I-tunes charts :) I remember reading ages ago that the next album would get a 'soft' release in USA- presumably meaning no promo. Is there going to be a physical release, or do the US fans still have to rely on imports ? I suppose releasing it there knowing the overall chart position would be low would just open him up to all the UK critics having a go again :(
October 26, 200618 yr Dory, I think it was already certain that there wouldn't be a physical release of the Rudebox album in the US. Probably they would change their minds if the album got a lot higher on the download charts, who knows. no. 16 is really not that bad considering he is almost unknown in the US, would be nice if it made it into the top 10. :rolleyes:
October 26, 200618 yr thats amazing considering he ahsnt even tried to break it this time! :o may it even enter the hot 100 this week? :o
October 26, 200618 yr Yes thats fabulous!!! I'm getting my cd this afternoon as a matter of fact!! :yahoo:
October 27, 200618 yr I just checked and it is 15 now :D They even have the album cover on the homepage ^_^
October 27, 200618 yr thats amazing considering he ahsnt even tried to break it this time! :o may it even enter the hot 100 this week? :o If he had've physically released it I think it would make the hot 100 but he hasnt and It's probebly better off he did'nt considering the press would make his look like he failed miserably which he has'nt. Out of 10 years he said himself he has only spent a few months promoting there, yet he has managed to sell nearly a million albums :lol:
October 28, 200618 yr Rudebox has entered the Irish Album Charts at Number 2 - hopefully it will take the Top Spot next wk :yahoo:
