July 13, 200718 yr Joss Stone and Timbaland still selling well :D And well done to Nelly and Beyonce for their huge successes! :funky:
July 13, 200718 yr Nelly Furtado Loose 6.711.000 7.214.325 Awwwwwww :wub: She will beat Red Hot Chilli and Justin soon :cheer:
July 13, 200718 yr Yay- At the beginning of this year, the gap between Nelly and Justin was over 1 million copies- look at it now! Nelly will pass him in sales with Loose! How amazing!
July 13, 200718 yr and In God's Hands is just before release, so is Do It, so sales could increase whilst Justins won't imo.
July 13, 200718 yr You're all wearing tinted specs IMO; Justin's album sales are as strong as Nelly's, LoveStoned is going to be a bigger hit than In God Hands too, though I agree than in the US sales will stay high with Do It.
July 13, 200718 yr The "Home" album from rock group Mr. Children, released 14th March 2007, had a 14 week run in the Japanese Top 40 and finished that run with total sales of 1,129,555. It's dropped out of the Top 40 now but is still currently selling about 3000 copies per week. The chart for the week "Home" last appeared in the Top 40 is here.
July 13, 200718 yr Author The "Home" album from rock group Mr. Children, released 14th March 2007, had a 14 week run in the Japanese Top 40 and finished that run with total sales of 1,129,555. It's dropped out of the Top 40 now but is still currently selling about 3000 copies per week. The chart for the week "Home" last appeared in the Top 40 is here. mediatraffic total in top40 is 968.000 and as we know when an album go out of their top 40 mediatraffic not count it. I try to continue the estimations also when an album go out of top40, but unlucky i don't do it for Japanese acts becouse i should have every week japanese sales also for japanese acts (i have only for international acts) but i haven't it :(.
July 13, 200718 yr mediatraffic total in top40 is 968.000 The Media Traffic figure is wrong. Those are correct Oricon figures posted at Livedoor. And even though Japanese albums don't sell big outside Japan, they do sell in other SE-Asian markets, especially in Taiwan, so the worldwide sales for an album like "Home" are higher than the Japan-only figure.
July 13, 200718 yr Looking at this business report of 2006 from Chrysalis records, Feeder's singles album has shipped 500,000 copies, the report didn't say worldwide or in the UK alone. http://www.chrysalis.com/investor_reports_...ss%20Review.pdf The same figure you posted on your site, so I believe these estimations are near to correct :).

I will update the two miss weeks (27/7 and 3/8) around 6-7/8, then I will made as usual the update of friday 9/8!!!
July 20, 200717 yr Author Some considerations pre-holiday Justin Timberlake FutureSex / LoveSounds 7.027.000 7.554.025 : good sales for 2° album, considering the general fall of sales this album had bigger success than already big seller debut. could reach 9m in 1 year in the end and 10m in 5-6 years. Red Hot Chili Peppers Stadium Arcadium 6.879.000 7.394.925 : good sales, By the way sold more (8/9m vs 7m) but was 2002..sales are bigger of +20% and in general S.A. had best longevity and positions on charts than By The Way. Yes,far from the huge success (15m) and longevity of Californication or the huge US success of their best album BSSM. Nelly Furtado Loose 6.812.000 7.322.900 After a semi-flop start this album grow (thanks to some singles) and become Nelly's bestseller. This is a surprise after a "flop" like Folklore. Also here as for Justin Timberlake a lot of credits go to Timbaland production. with Rhcp will be the biggest selling album outside USA of the year Soundtrack High School Musical 6.565.000 7.057.375 sometimes happen that a Musical have great sales. This time is happen to a childish-teenager musical. Don't know why..but it happened (expecially in USA) Beyoncé B'Day 5.041.000 5.419.075 Not great (about sales..) as the debut but still high sales. The album had a big push after the re-release. not a flop. Pink I'm Not Dead 4.898.000 5.265.350 After the flop of Try This also I'm Not Dead have a not so great start but thanks to singles like Who Knew and U + Ur Hand the sales never fall and continue to do well expecially in Europe and Oceania. In Usa the album flop for the first year, now do better. The Beatles Love 4.527.000 4.866.525 Incredible and in the same time obvious. Beatles are always beatles and they made a huge sales also with a remix album. Rascal Flatts Me And My Gang 4.385.000 4.713.875 USA oriented pop-country act. the album did around the same of their previous album Feels Like Today Snow Patrol Eyes Open 4.299.000 4.621.425 The first real surprise.. Yes they are already a "big" band in Uk and with some hits (Run also in USA) The album start good (expecially in UK) but not so well,then after the release of Chasing Cars (anthem pop rock ballad) the album start to increase the sales. Really big in all the world (apart Japan and Italy). Next Coldplay? maybe. Evanescence The Open Door 4.127.000 4.436.525 Flop. Was difficult, impossible to repeat the exploit of Fallen that thanks to the longevity and to the huge US sales sold around 15m worldwide. The new album start good with "Call Me.." hit single then radio and tv stop to promte them in good way and the sales fall really quickly. U2 18 Singles 3.861.000 4.150.575 The same of beatles, obvious. An other Best Of album from U2 (that in last years released more collections than Studio albums) and an other big seller. not huge but good sales...maybe if was the first "greatest hits" sold more. Akon Konvicted 3.817.000 4.103.275 Increase the sales from his last album.is difficult to make nowadays. Christina Aguilera Back To Basics 3.811.000 4.096.825 Semi-flop. the singles didn't so bad (expecially in some countries) but the album sales never explode. yes, not bad longevity and maybe suffered from the lowering of sales more than other albums.
