fakfak Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I guess the promo is paying off here in the States, as MX is now #1 on iTunes again. I don't doubt it. The band (but especially Chris) are getting really good buzz from this round of US promo, even from people that would usually be slagging them off.

Mimixxx Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Exactly, they need to do the same here. Chatty Man for example, maybe the Chris Moyles show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakfak Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Exactly, they need to do the same here. Chatty Man for example, maybe the Chris Moyles show I think they're wrapping up their commitments over here soon, and they have about a month gap before their UK dates, so maybe they will do a bit.

fakfak Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 MX is at no 7 in the Billboard charts right now and several sources are predicting it may go back up a couple place due to fairly weak offerings being released in weeks ahead. It's close to platinum in the states. Coupled with really strong demand for the UK stadium tickets,good news abounds for the boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrman78 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Mylo Xyloto is down 1 spot from 7 to 8 this week on the US Billboard 200 Chart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roche714 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 so is MX considered a hit or not?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Definitely yes :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakfak Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 so is MX considered a hit or not?? I'd think so. It's platinum in several countries, gold in several more, and sold over a million copies (closer to two). It may not be as big a hit as VLVADAAHF but, it's still doing pretty well all things considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mimixxx Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 It's cos they appeared on a huge charity concert here that was broadcast on national TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrman78 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Mmm now Billboard is saying MX is down to #10. not sure if this is week 3 or 4 then?:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nancyk58 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I listened to BBC, Radio 1's weekly countdown of UK singles / downloads: Paradise was no. 13 (7 positions higher than last week) - and Mylo Xyloto was some positions up to no. 4. In iTunes, Denmark's weekly countdown Paradise was some positions up to 13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrman78 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Billboard 200: Mylo Xyloto down one to #9. That's four weeks in the top 10 then! :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplaymom Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I wonder what the total sales are now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdplayingfromKansas Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 ^ Same here. I'd like to see how it's doing in comparison to how the other albums sold when they dropped. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakfak Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I wonder what the total sales are now. It's hard to get really accurate information on this, but a few hits on my google search seem to indicate it's somewhere around 1.5-2 million worldwide. No idea how accurate that is but it seems feasible given the data we do have on various individual countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdplayFanatic16 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 1.5 - 2 million copies only?! What??!? MX IS A GREAT ALBUM!! Cmon! COLDPLAY has a record of always selling more albums than the previos ones. Please let MX continue the trend! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Um 2 million copies in just over a month (when record sales are steadily in decline) is really good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Nails Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Just read somewhere that Paradise is the most played song on radio of November in The Netherlands. And it's still in the top 10 in the two main charts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
