King Warner (1,800,000) 49 Soundtrack Hannah Montana Walt Disney/Universal/EMI (1,800,000) 50 Tim McGraw Greatest Hits Vol. 2 Warner (1,750,000) Am I right in saying that some of the albums that ramked higher that Rob's were released a lot earlier than Rudebox. It has done really well for an album that was released late in the year. Thanks Scotty.
February 14, 200718 yr Author i dunno why everyone says robbies album was a flop, its sold over 3 million! :blink: Cause the UK press think if his album sells less than half a million in the UK means he has flopped everywhere. :rolleyes: They are so stupid and don't seem to have any idea how big he is worldwide. <_< Still though, compared to his previous album, sales are dissapointing but that is due to the album not being particually the sort of music many of his fans are into and the fact he did absolutelly zero promotion. Still far from a flop. ^_^
