mayrn43 Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackplay Posted May 26, 2014 Author Share Posted May 26, 2014 Ghost Stories has been certified GOLD (100K) in Germany. Amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospector Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackplay Posted May 26, 2014 Author Share Posted May 26, 2014 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.

Mackplay Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackplay Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackplay Posted May 28, 2014 Author Share Posted May 28, 2014 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
