In ireland this week

 

Rule The World falls 1 place to number 18

 

in the albums

 

Beautiful world falls 2 places to number 12

 

Never forget the ultimate collection re enters at number 38 spending its 61st week on the chart

 

I don't think RTW will ever catch up with Patience now (now not far off half-million sales, RTW has about 150,000 copies to sell to catch up). I'm quite glad really - if I'm being honest, it really isn't as good as Patience - or rather - I don't like it quite as much as Patience.

i didnt think there was as much a gap as 150,000,rule the world is still top 20 in the UK so i thnk it has about another 50,000 sales left in it,it will come close but considering patience was the comeback song and not on an album when released rule the world has done really really well as 4th single,if it had been the first single it may have sold better than patience

But Rule The World was not a 4th single from the Beautiful World album - it was released as a stand-alone single. It only made its way onto the BW album at its 'deluxe' stage. I doubt it will get anywhere near Patience (which was still in the iTunes download chart a whole 14 months after its release, up to a few weeks ago). And quite rightly so - Patience is, for me anyway, leagues ahead of Rule The World. If I'm being honest - I prefer Reach Out to RTW.

i love patience nyself and i love rule the world i dont know which i truly prefer but i love both,i dont mean 4th single as in 4th single of an album its the fourth single since they reformed patience had the advanatge as it was the comeback single gaining alot more hype etc ,i like reach out myself which should have been a single instead of id wait for life but reach out isnt nearly as good as rule the world or patience or shine for that matter

On week 15 rule the world falls 3 places to number 17

Rule the world is on dancing on ice tonight a couple are dancing to it so it will give it a sales boost i think for next week

Well they've crept up a couple of places on iTunes but I can't see that making any impression on the chart come Sunday.

I'm impressed with the Ultimate Collection's continued climbs over the past few weeks. Especially as its full price (incidentally - BW is no longer a cheap buy - so that's done well to stay as high as it has).

both albums have been so successfull and its just great to see ,likewise with the singles apart from id wait for life,the 3 singles have sold really well just as well if not more than some of the singles from years back and thats great as singles sales nowadays in general are much much lower

Rule The World is number 25 down 6 places in the mid weeks this weeks

rule the world is number 26 this week and beautiful world is number 19,both may benefit from valentines sales next weeek aalso

And The Ultimate Collection has risen three places to 26 (after Mikey predicted on Friday that mid-week figures suggested it had fallen a place). Must have been a good few sold on the Saturday!

 

Norma

ya i forgot t add that the ultimate collection climbed,again another album that could gain well from valentines sales
