The Greatest Hits chart positions thread

in usa in 6 week gnr sold about 55000 copies

Add one more zero to that...

Uh no, 55,000 is right, there's no way it sold 550,000 copies last week, the total is close to that, the most it's sold in a week was 180,000. And to the guy that asked why it's not gold on billboard, I think it's because the label has to apply for certification or something and they probably haven't gotten around to it yet.

It's down from 3 to 4 on the Swedish album list, but it's number 1 at both cdon.com and ginza.se

Ah dude. Ofcourse there's no way it sold 550,000 copies in one week. The dude's sentence was gramatically goofy and I thought he said that in 6 weeks GN'R have sold 55,000 copies of the Greatest Hits album in the U.S,but now I just figured out he meant that in week number 6 it sold 55,000 copies. But yes the Greatest Hits album has sold around 500,000-600,000 copies in the U.S.

my wrong,in six week gh sold 55000 copies.

[Billo]

8th week in the Australian charts its back up 1 spot to no 7....
And its gone Platinum

[Mutherfunker]

Makes you realise how well it's done when George Michael's album that sold very well, and was released the same week, is now at 35 in the UK.

@#$%Muther

[Insomnis]

Norway:

Greatest hits: 9th week, drops 2 places to #6

WTTV: Still #1 and has been for the past 7 weeks

EURO chart:

[Dirty Power]

Is it possible to know the GH charts positions in countries like Russia, Croatia, Poland, Estonia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Chile, Uruguay, Colombia, Venezuela, Mexico, Indonesia, Taiwan, Malaysia, South Korea ??

I guess it sold quite well...

hello,i'm from yugoslavia(now serbia),and we are shit country,without official realises from other country

[Mutherfunker]

Alright Rale?

I'm originally from Serbia too. I can't believe you guys have no overseas official releases. That's shitty. That's a big GN'R country too.

As I'm writing this I've just realised that Serbia & Montenegro abreviates to S&M, how bout that  

@#$%Muther

[St.heathen]

You have to admit all judgements aside. It has been fun seeing GN'R trample over the unexpecting world.  Proving all those non believers in music mags who can't say anything positive.

I think the record company should continue pushing it while it's still up there in the top 10. I mean with something like Big Brother starting in the uk - a couple of GH ad's in the first couple of weeks around the programme would be quite a good idea.

And as we all know GNR have the perfect summer music. When it's sunny and u have the BBQ on and cold beers with all your mates around - perfect lol

We should all buy one more at least think in terms of - One for downstairs, one for the car , maybe even one for upstairs too if your feeling a bit rich lol

Would be great to see it go back up on top just one more time even if it's just to piss everybody off lol   Maybe we could have VR and GNR in the top 10  at the same time - would be cool at least for those not taking "sides".

Saw the advert in full for the ad breaks on Gordon Ramseys Kitchen - a high profile programme in the UK. Good stuff, hope it gets back up there.

[axls#2]

should be interesting to see what velvet revolvers sales will be, also i wonder how much of the vr publicity has helped the GH's. But it's good to know that its selling so well in spite of the shitty tracklisting, makes you wonder where it would be with only one new song.

[Insomnis]

Norway, week 10

GH #9 position (#6 last week)

WTTV #5 (#1 last week)



Euro chart week 9

GH #3 (#2 last week)

[Scottyl333]

Does anyone know how many copys the greatest hits has sold in the USA.  I think it is at about 750,000 but could be wrong.  Anyway, if it keeps on selling 40,000 a week its going platinum.  I think it will. Any thoughts.

[jarmo]

#1 in Belgium.
