May 26, 201412 yr I forgot to mention that A Sky Full Of Stars debuted at #15 in the UK which is great. The song will be officially released on June 30th in the UK. Hopefully we'll get new remixes, an acoustic version and the video. That would be delicious. A Sky Full of Stars EP + a video on June 30th is a possibility!
May 26, 201412 yr First seven to debut at number one. Can't believe it, they look set to match the Beatles #1 UK album record with their next album. And if the album after that is successful, they'll surpass the record. Wow. Keane has a 100% record as well, for 4/4 albums debuting at #1 in the UK. Actually Keane's record is 5/5 because the Night Train EP is also counted
May 26, 201412 yr Author Yes Keane also has a perfect record. ---- Ghost Stories debuted at #1 in Germany and in Russia. --- I will update the OP next Wednesday when we get all the first week sales and numbers.
May 26, 201412 yr Actually Keane's record is 5/5 because the Night Train EP is also counted Right, I didn't know if I should have included Night Train or not. Thanks!
May 27, 201412 yr Author Ghost Stories debuted at #7 in Japan (over 20K), #1 in Switzerland and #1 in France (over 51K)
May 27, 201412 yr Author Coldplayzone has reported that Ghost Stories has sold over 1.2M copies worldwide. They are a reliable source but Im not going to use this number because the websites I use for informations will update the charts every week while Coldplayzone doesn't. I believe this number is real though.

May 27, 201412 yr Author How does 1.2 million compare with this stage of release for their previous albums? MX debuted with just a little over 1M. This is a really huge opening.
May 27, 201412 yr Author Ghost Stories officially #1 in the US. Early numbers from HDD are 386K. Billboard will publish their numbers tomorrow. Well done boys! -- GS debuted at #3 in Estonia

May 28, 201412 yr Author Great sales, can't wait to see the official Billboard figures then get these figures up on the site :D Not sure if I've mentioned this already but, in the US, Ghost Stories is the fastest selling Rock album since Babel by M&S in 2012. It's also the fastest selling album of the year, beating Country singer Eric Church 288K opening week back in February.
May 28, 201412 yr 386k in the US is great! http://hitsdailydouble.com/news/newsPage.cgi?news09889m01 And Worldwide 1st week sales are around 1million :D
