What about Muse? ... They sell out stadiums and arenas around the world too.
Shes barely adding anything worth of an update. Update Queen, their catalogue must have grown like crazy.
I see that new album hasn't done too well in it's second week on the US Billboard charts. Apparently it has just broken the record, for the biggest fall from #1 , for an album debuting there the previous week, falling out of the Top 100!
True but what is important is that the album at least managed to take the top spot on its first week. 🙂
To Coldplay fans, don't really feel down about their latest album, as they say a "flop" album. It's their 8th album already and not the end their music career either. Eventhough Maroon 5 continues to make hit singles recently but it's still their 6th album and i doubt that Maroon 5 can outsell/outEas Coldplay on their 8th album. I don't think Maroon 5 can beat Coldplay's total EAS at all.
Chill. 🙂
Rock & Roll may not be dead, but it's slowly dying. One rare exception by the older artist who achieved very good chart success with the new/last album, was Roger Waters with "Is This the Life We Really Want? " (2017).
The album peaked at number 3 in the United Kingdom and number 11 on the Billboard album list (USA). Further, album peaked No 1. in the Scotland, Norway, Czech Republic......Italy No2. etc.
"Is This the Life We Really Want? " hang around in the charts pretty long time.
Yes, I suppose that is one thing you can take solace in but I do feel the drop, is the bigger headline, unfortunately. I wonder where it would have placed last week, without the bundle.
Great article MJD! Glad to see an update of Coldplay with the newer format and formulas.
I could be wrong, but I remember that in the original version of this article Viva La Vida had some figures listed for Asian countries other than Japan. Have they been removed here to fit the table's format, or do you now have doubts about the accuracy of those numbers?
With a rumored 2021 follow up being everyday life as a ghost stories without asfos type of song do you think most likely tbey eill have more commercisl appeal to bring em back as a consistent selling band without the need to always be mainstream
but they dont sell albums worldwide as much as coldplay they are on another level check Muse's cspc how different it is
Very good article as always! Can you tell us Strawberry Swing and True Love's digital sales on the next update? They were also singles on Viva La Vida and Ghost Stories, so the fans are curious.
