Experts answer your questions. For March 15, 2007


'THRILLING' NUMBERS

Greetings Keith,

My local TV affiliate here in Las Vegas broadcasted the World Music Awards this last weekend. Apparently it took place in 2006, but wasn't shown on television until now.

Anyway, at one point, Michael Jackson was presented an award for "Thriller" being the best seller of all time at 104,000,000 units worldwide.

Question one would be: Can this number even be calculated without more than a few assumptions? But question number two can be answered: How well has "Thriller" done in the U.S. during the Nielsen SoundScan era (1991-present)?

Hi Charles,

The producers of the World Music Awards likely contacted SonyBMG and queried them on how many copies "Thriller" had shipped to retailers, worldwide, since its release. We have no way of verifying that number.

According to Nielsen SoundScan, "Thriller" has only sold 2.5 million copies in the U.S. since 1991.

That number may seem small, and it kinda is. But in the early '80s, "Thriller" was a monster hit. It clearly sold the vast majority of its overall figure during the early to mid-'80s.

"Thriller," released in 1982, was an absolute smash. It spent 37 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart -- the most for any pop album (only the soundtrack to "West Side Story" spent longer at No. 1, for 54 weeks).

"Thriller" was certified in 1984 as having shipped 20 million copies in the U.S. It has since had its certification total in America upped to 27 million (April, 2005).
 
The best MJ news chart wise in a while all over the world (possibly for 2007) is coming right from the heart of downunder - Australia!



ARIA - TOP 40 DVD CHART

20 R/E #1s - MICHAEL JACKSON P8

*Platinum x 8 (Platinum = 15,000 DVDs) Approx 120,000 copies sold.

Cheers,

Thank you for the updates! :rolleyes:

Great to see MJ on charts in several countries.
 
Thank you for your updates Kevin. Numbers ones was my first MJ album. It is a nice, reasonably priced way to start a collection (and addiction :p ). I think it is a good indicator of renewed interest and new fans signing on.

Wow, this is something I mean normally artists don't have catalog albums doing this well in the top 40 no less except when they have a new product out. I hope that 'Number Ones' ultimately join the 2 mil plus mark to match the success of 'Dangerous' 'Bad' and 'Thriller' in all time sales in the UK.

Exactly, but some people are so ignorant. Just read this.

Someone should inform this person that "Number ones" is not a new album.
