Official Charts Thread For ''Michael''

There is absolutely no promotion here in Ireland, no billboards, no radio or tv adds that i have heard so far and it is not the first thing you see when you enter the music stores. Michael has constanly had albums in the irish top 30 since last year, only a couple of weeks ago no1s reached the top 20 again so there are a lot of fans here but there is not enough hype.

Gosh. So has Sony given up the promo in Ireland&Portugal? I desperately want Michael to be No. 1 around the world.

breaking news #MICHAEL JACKSON HAS JUST BEEN CERTIFIED PLATINUM IN OVER 10 COUNTRIES WORLD WIDE AFTER 2 DAYS OF RELEASE! JUST WENT GOLD IN BRAZIL IN 1DAY” holy cow ladies and gent michael is number 1 again!
 
platinum, as in ONE MILLION? in 10 countries in 2 days??

sales number for platinum certification changes across countries depending on the size of the population. so no it's not necessarily one million in each country.
