mikeatron85 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 (edited) http://www.ariacharts.com.au/pages/charts_....asp?chart=1G50 Despite failing to nab either Gold or Platinum accreditation in it's first week, 'A Thousand Suns' has debuted at number 1 in Australia! The above link is for the Australian Recording Industry Association Album Chart - Australia's equivalent of Billboard. There's a fair chance it might hit one of those sales milestones next week as the album and tour are currently being promoted on free-to-air television in Australia with a pretty nifty 30-second spot.

Pez Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 You can also add Catalyst is on the rise slowly. This week: 33 Last: 49 ALSOOO Waiting for the End is on Hot-30 charts and is already at 23. When a video hits for that it shall hopefully be flirting with number one!

mikeatron85 Posted September 19, 2010 Author Share Posted September 19, 2010 i'm a little worried about waiting for the end - i feel as though it's going to blow up pretty big before it's even officially released as a single! not necessarily a bad thing - but if the band can't promote it the way they intended on promoting it... might not have as big an impact as it would if it was released and took people by surprise. that probably doesn't even make sense - im so very sleepy lol Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/5631-ats-debuts-at-1-on-australian-charts/#findComment-102482 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleda519 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 No. 2 in the UK. Any other week and they would have been No. 1 for sure but The Script are pretty big here too and it was a close fight so congrats LP! http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/news/a27...-one-album.html Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/5631-ats-debuts-at-1-on-australian-charts/#findComment-102511 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaleda519 Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 Yes.... Everyone in Britain has bad taste. That's not a generalisation at all! The script are pretty generic but they are popular. I'd much prefer LP at number 1 but that's just the way it is.

ladygaga Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 the script isn't so bad, but is a kind of album, to listen 2 in 2 years at least i think the world debut will be circa 500k 250 in us + 250 worldwide Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/5631-ats-debuts-at-1-on-australian-charts/#findComment-102611 Share on other sites More sharing options...
