I wish Invincible was in there.

Invincible is gonna have a great career when Sony decides to take it seriously and promote it. Whenever that will be..

The problem with Invincible is the fact no one is selling it in their stores. In my city, both Kmart and Walmart don't have it. Only Thriller, Number Ones, or Essential
 
Id like to know how on Earth something like this is possible! This is completely unbelievable. Its over a month now! And he is just selling like nuts. Theres no really signs of slowing down so how long something like this is able to last..?
 
Number Ones should this week end up selling roughly 180,000-200,000 copies in the US.

Invincible is actually doing well in some countries around the world, plus since its part of The Collection means its selling quite a lot of copies because its part of that package.

FOREVER. Hopefully. haha :) People realising the MJ magic!
 
Every store I've been in (Best Buy, Target, Wal-Mart) has a MJ section, which is really a shame seeing as how they barely ever had any of his CDs. But Best Buy had all of this solo CDs including History and BOTDF and Invincible. I was shocked. That had just about all of the Jacksons CD aswell. I bought The Jacksons' Live CD. It's really good. As long as stores continue to have walls dedicated to him and a large suppy, he may rule the charts for a while.

And anytime there are specials on TV or when that film is released, the sales will soar once again. He is going to reign as King forever.

Well this is Michael. The rules don't apply for him. :) Always expect the unexpected when Michael's involved.
 
If Billboard changed their rules and let Michael's music back on the Top 100 charts I think his music would sell more because then all his music would be playing on all the top 40 stations and video shows all over the United States. If his music was played like a normal #1 album's songs are played, it would be millions more sold and downloaded.

Amen!!!!

I seriously think either Privacy or Tabloid Junkie should be released as singles RIGHT NOW!
 
I'm proud to say I contributed last week by buying "The Essential Michael Jackson"..it's a really good mix...I wanted the 3-CD set but they didn't have it..it must be rare
 
I know Im not in the US but I have bought many albums these weeks in Sweden so Im contributing over here hehe. Im spending the refund from my concert tickets on his albums. I just dont know what to do with all the albums haha. I have several copies of the same album now, Lol but I keep on his legacy.

Ive bought HIstory, BOTD, Bad, Number Ones, The Collection, Thriller 25 and Dangerous again these weeks.

Im also gonna go and get Off the Wall and King of Pop hit collection next week ;)

it's amazing, isn't it?? and elvis still sells, so honestly MJ will be selling forever. it will be amazing to know the total album sales by the end of the year...and i'm glad that THRILLER is selling so well, because it only helps to push it even further into the stratosphere where no one will ever top it's sales :D

I just wonder about the album Bad.

Does the record company still produce the original Bad album? I only see the re-issue Bad album when I try to buy it online. Dont want it....only want the original.
 
Final results will be issued by tomorrow, only preliminary however. You can find it on HitsDailyDouble.com . Nielsen Soundscan will have final numbers by early Wednesday, those numbers are always a bit higher then hits daily double.
 
I know my mother bought me the Thriller 25 record as a gift. I hadn't gotten it yet, and when she did I was surprised, but I was like 'AWESOME!'. I love the song 'For All Time" and I always have, and now that I have a really good finalized version of it, I LOVE IT! hell I love all his songs...and I am just so over joyed that Michael is showing the world that YES HE IS THE KING!

As Tina Turner put it (with a minor alteration...hehehe), "HE'S SIMPLY THE BEST!"
