Mackplay Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 Ghost Stories went #1 in over 100 iTunes stores. But iTunes Charts are not official charts even though in many countries that's all we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Ghost Stories is down to #2 in the UK charts on the 2nd week but has sold 75,000 copies, higher than MX's 2nd week sales (considerably higher as Buzzjack music forums claimed), great sales :D A Sky Full of Stars is up 1 place to #14 in the UK thanks to the Graham Norton effect! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eleanordc Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Also #1 in Czech Republic and Chile. Ghost Stories is still #1 in many countries where it went #1 last week. It will also stay #1 in the USA. I find it unbelievable that while it's #1 in U.S I have only heard a Ghost Stories song played one time on the radio here in D.C and it's almost like the album doesn't exist! Granted I don't listen to a ton of radio since it's pretty awful but still.... Hopefully it's different at other stations across the States.

The radio support has been bad except for Alternative Rock stations. While songs like Happy by Pharrell and Dark Horse by Katy Perry had over 200 millions in airplay, Magic only had 12 millions. A Sky Full Of Stars is just starting to get played on radio. It will be released to popular radio stations next Tuesday so hopefully we'll start hearing it more and more. My local Adult station here in Cincinnati has been playing A Sky Full Of Stars. They love Coldplay, they always play their songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackplay Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 Remaining at number two for the second straight week, Coldplay's Ghost Stories wasn't too far behind Smith, selling a further 46,315 copies to raise its three week tally to 289,431 - enough for it to jump 3-1 on the year-to-date rankings There are new peaks for Coldplay's A Sky Full Of Stars (14-13, 17,745 sales) --- So in short, after 3 weeks, Ghost Stories has become the biggest album in the UK in 2014.

Mackplay Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share Posted June 11, 2014 US charts: after 2 weeks at #1, Ghost stories falls to #5 with 46K. That's enough to move it past 500K and get it certified GOLD. ASFOS was released to Pop radio yesterday and it's about to pass Magic's radio peak. After only 2 weeks on the worldwide chart, Ghost Stories is now the 4th best selling album of the year. It will be #3 after this week. Finally, Ghost Stories is now the best selling album of the year in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
