There will be efforts to push the new DVD-"Stones in Exile"--and so push the cd-s!

Die Fantastischen Vier erklimmen Spitze
Baden-Baden (RPO). Die Fantastischen Vier haben die Spitze der Album-Charts erklommen. "Für dich immer noch Fanta Sie" verdrängte "My Cassette Player" von Lena Meyer-Landrut nach nur einer Woche auf Platz zwei, wie Media Control am Mittwoch in Baden-Baden mitteilte. Rang drei belegen die Rolling Stones mit der Neuauflage ihres Klassikers "Exile on Main Street" von 1972.

i think its great for the Stones. Think, next week they will climb the no.1

While #3 is great, do you think it will actually climb? If memory serves, what has happened a lot in the last couple of decades, is that the Stones enter the charts at the peak, and wind their way down from there.

Not to throw cold water on your idea, but without a 'hit single' or some other reason for people to buy the album over the next few weeks, I think all the pent up demand will be exhausted in the first week.

Does anyone disagree with that?

No chance its going to the top this time. "Lena" is far too popular at the moment and the "Fantastischen 4" are, too. Both have lots of airplay whereas the Stones have almost none.

Well, the release for that is in the latter part of June...if there is any effect, it will be minor and maybe cause it to jump back into the top 100 for more two weeks.

In France, the wholesaler Fnac represents a good share of the market. In the pop-rock section, Exile is listed as # 1. I suppose, this translates into a good position countrywide.

When does the actual chart come out for France. I believe it is noon tomorrow EST for Billboard in the US (and presumably Canada).

well UK no.1

us--no.2

germany no.3

what about the netherlands?

.....#2 in the US...130K for Glee, 76K for the Stones.....respectable.

et en france, voilà, #2,


Tops : Bieber détrôné par... Stromae Et de 10 concernant Stromae ! 10 semaines non-consécutives en tête des ventes de singles en France, puisque "Alors on danse" reprend sa place de leader, n'ayant laissé le jeune canadien Justin Bieber, qu'une seule petite semaine sur la pôle position. Côté albums, on désespère, Les Prêtres sont encore et toujours n°1...
Les Prêtres passent une sixième semaine en tête des meilleures ventes d'albums en France, certes, avec "Spiritus Dei". Certes, mais The Rolling Stones débarquent, eux, n°1 du Back-catalogue avec la réédition de leur album "Exile On Main Street", se classant n°2 des ventes, tout supports confondus. A suivre...

In terms of chart position, yes. Without a doubt.

Maybe not so much sales wise.

31,000 units sold in the UK would be equivalent to over 150,000 in the US.

All the TV promotion for the album was done in the US, so whilst I'm surprised that sales have been so good overall to begin with, I'd have thought that they'd have shifted more copies in the US (per head of population) than everywhere else.

what about Italy, Brazil, Argentina???

"31,000 units sold in the UK would be equivalent to over 150,000 in the US."

Yes Gazza, but by the look of it, album sales in the US are droping off dramatically these days . Could we talk about real equivalence between US market and UK market? I don't know. A few years ago, an album selling 76,000 copies would be on the tighr rope, on the limit - "in" or "out" Billboard's Top 10. Now 76,000 do offer No 2.

Anyway, just saw Global Chart. This week No 1 album has sold 149,000 copies. Only UK + Us sales of "Exile" is 107,000. "Glee" did strong sales for the nowadays measures in the US, but what about the rest of the planet? Georgelicks, what do you think? Is "Exile" on the way to a Global No 1 ?

A Global number 1 would be a nice 'consolation prize', wouldn't it.

Looking at last week's chart, very fractured. Bieber as number one I wouldn't think would hold...GLEE, not outside US/Canada, so there may be a good chance!

Yes treaclefingers, these are my thoughts too. But we need the predictions (or the informations) of Georgelicks here...

A global number one is more than a consolation prize as far as I'm concerned - it's what matters most!

I was being completely facetious....that's why I put the word 'consolation' in quotes.

We get so 'anxious' with what happens in the US....World Sales should really be the most important yardstick.

In reality they sold 91k copies of Exile. They hold the #2 position on the charts as well as the #27 position.

They would have had the #1 record on the charts last week. Not bad for a 40 year old album that already spent 4 wks at #1.

#3 in Canada (8,500 copies sold)

EXILE NUMBER 1 THIS WEEK IN USA!!!

in the "catalogue albums" category.

In Rock Albums, I see the 'Rarities' disc charting #7

[www.billboard.com]

How it is possible for the Rarities disc to chart, and not the deluxe version, is beyond my simple comprehension.

I also don't see a listing for Canada, although they may just have been slow to post.

#1 Worldwide with 164,000 copies sold
[www.mediatraffic.de]

#2 in Europe
[www.billboard.com]

#3 in Canada (with Catalog albums included)
[jam.canoe.ca]

EXCELLENT! I shouldn't care, but for some reason I do!

NUMBER 1 in the world...this is the most important sales stat!

Let's see if there is any stamina to those old legs...I wonder what it will look like next week?

So "Glee" have sold 137,000 in the US and 13,000 in the rest of the planet...

Excellent! And those Glee morons (I don't even know who they are but I've just decided that I don't like them) didn't even make it to second place. Serves them right!
