I will kill myself if Glee beats the Stones for the #1 spot.
Mick will live to regret that scripted joke about them on the Fallon Show. Maybe thousands of potential Exile-buyers had never heard of them before and rushed out to buy their album after he mentioned them.

If they do, as far as I'm aware they'll be the first act EVER to have number 1's in FIVE different decades. They'd have been looking at a sixth had they sold 12 more copies of 40 Licks in the first week in 2002 - unfortunately EMI in their infinite wisdom missed out on a sure thing by releasing it the same day as BMG released the "Elvis Number 1's CD.

only 12?? Mick should've sent all of his kids out to get an extra copy for their cars.
anecdotal evidence: i bought the last Exile deluxe at both Best Buys that I went to...
even the regular (non-deluxe version) was sold out at one store...and only 1-2 Super Deluxe still there.

Mick still has time to send his kids out to buy up copies of Exile. The Stones have the #1 spot in the U.K., but it's only by 1,000 copies with a few days of sales left.

Do you honestly give a flying @#$%& ?
If so. I'd love to know the reasons why. It certainly wont effect me or my enjoyment of the album

Will I enjoy the album less if it doesn't hit #1? NO,but it's all about bragging rights. I want stick it in the face of those who wrote the Stones off.

How old are you James ?
Cos that sounds like something a ten year old would say
The reason people have written the Stones off is because they can't make any great songs now. Where's the triumph in having an already known classic back in the charts ?
Mental.

Didn't mean to offend you Andy. Lighten up.
How old are you because that sounds like something my 94 year old crumedgeon of a Grandfather would say...We get it Andy you are above the charts and any commercial aspect of the re-release. Lets's just enjoy it for what it is. Blah, blah, blah.
Ultimately it doesn't make a difference if the record goes to #1 or not, but as a life long Stones fan I'd like to see it be a #1 and I think the majority of people on this board would agree.
P.S. Jagger would kill for a #1 album in the United States at this point and it may convince him that there is still a viable commercial market for new Stones projects going forward.

According to the latest leaked sales figures, the Rolling Stones are just 500 copies ahead of Faithless.
Tuesday: 1,600
Wednesday: 1,000
Thursday: 500
It looks like the #1 is very hard to keep at this point.
