Trying to keep busy but all I can think about is Michael. Well - here is the good news Michael rules the charts more than ever and has sold 2million physical albums since his death now and this week he sells 900,000, more than any week before since Invincible came out)
Chart Update (week 3 since death)
Source: Official Chart company
Album chart (Michael Rules the chart this week more than ever, with new stock in of HIStory)
#1. The Essential Michael Jackson
#3. Off The Wall
#4. Thriller
#5. The Motown Years (With Jackson5)
#7. Number Ones
#9. Thriller 25
#14. King Of Pop
#15. The Very Best Of The Jackson 5
#17. HIStory (My favourite, from 1995, up from #33!)
The only reason Bad and Dangerous are no longer in the chart atall is because most retailers have completely sold out and there are no surplus copies already shipped. In other words they need to make some more!
- Singles Chart (again generally ruled by MJ with some new entries, and I'll tell you why)
#3. Man In The Mirror (down one place due to new entry, from Bad)
