Good news, the album re-entered the Top 200! It's back in at #186. This certainly demonstrates how much streaming pushes them down (it was midweek #139 on Tuesday). Still, at least it's another week in the chart.

 

17/09 - #2 (25,285 sales) [Total: 25,287 sales]

24/09 - #21 (3,261 sales) [Total: 28,548 sales]

01/10 - #81 (1,412 sales) [Total: 29,960 sales]

08/10 - #127 (1,049 sales) [Total: 31,009 sales]

15/10 - n/a (829 sales) [Total: 31,838 sales]

22/10 - n/a (732 sales) [Total: 32,570 sales]

29/10 - n/a (780 sales) [Total: 33,350 sales]

05/11 - n/a (760 sales) [Total: 34,110 sales]

12/11 - #186 (922 sales) [Total: 35,033 sales] (not sure why the total given is 1 sale higher than 34,110 + 922, which equals 35,032!)

 

This week they sold 477 CDs, 300 Streaming, 129 Downloads, 11 Vinyl & 5 Cassettes.

 

Other chart positions:

 

#29 - Official Album Downloads Chart Top 100 (up 18 places)

#48 - Official Albums Sales Chart Top 100 (down 1 place)

#54 - Official Physical Albums Chart Top 100 (up 4 places)

 

Interesting that the tour seemingly isn't benefiting the 2020 album, with that not being Top 100 in any of the above 3 charts.

This week is its highest sales in 5 weeks.

I hope it can repeat it this week.

It really was a mistake calling it P2 I think. Should have had a new title completely.

 

I said this from the start.

 

If they wanted to tie it in they could have called it Heartbreak In This City to link the two albums or they could have taken a lyric from WTFH like Drowning In Our History or One Foot In The Past One Foot In The Future. Personally I think Victorious would have been a great title or Wasted Tears sounds quite cute.

Although the tour is clearly helping the album to keep selling so in that respect it was clever to keep the tie in being really obvious I guess. I don't get why they didn't just do it as 2cd release and have part 2 as CD2 then all the sales would have gone towards making WTFH a Gold album. :huh:

Agree hun. They dropped a bollock with missing this one.

 

Just Carol Honey :heart:

I still don't think the title is a major issue... it's just a title. I hardly think it would have sold thousands more if it was called something else. As I previously said, Pt.2 has already sold considerably more than the Tears deluxe? So there must have been plenty of awareness that Pt. 2 is in fact a new studio album.

 

The last album had the benefit of being their first in three years, and it was released in Q4, so naturally interest and sales were higher. Pt. 2 has done fine considering, it's more in line with most other artists who rely heavily on physicals and that is a week 1 game these days. It's done reasonably well to remain consistent in selling hundreds for the past few weeks, even before the tour started.

Midweek #154 today, 530 sales so far this week.

 

Fingers crossed it can stay Top 200 this week. Last week's Tuesday mid was #139 and that became an eventual #186... 47 places lower. If the same happened this week, it would end up at #201 lol.

 

(It's doing a little better this week in terms of sales, that midweek #139 was with 516 sales)

 

Seems like the album could on target for another 900+ sales week anyway, which would take the album to 36,000 sales or at least very close to it!

Unfortunately I’ve not received the Top 200s yet :cry:
