Wonder what the sales are for this week, surely an increase but by how much!
Maybe pushed past to 6th best selling album of all time, or might have to wait another week for that. |

She's clearly going to top that list at some stage, isn't she? This album is less than 14 months old FGS!

From NS.
http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-...ms-chart-1207/ The Official Charts Company can reveal today that Adele’s 21 has overtaken Pink Floyd’s 1973 epic, The Dark Side Of The Moon, in the UK’s all-time biggest selling albums chart. The news comes just three weeks after the London-born singer’s 2011 second album overtook sales of Michael Jackson’s Bad. 21 has now sold over 4,142,000 copies in the UK, making it the seventh biggest-selling album of all-time. However, with just 12,000 sales separating 21 from the Number 6 album, Dire Straits’ 1985 long player Brothers In Arms, Adele could easily overtake the British rockers by the end of this week. "As every week goes by, another record seems to tumble in front of Adele," comments the Official Charts Company's Managing Director, Martin Talbot. "Now, her 21 album has overtaken The Dark Side Of The Moon in the all-time biggest sellers list - and by the end of the week, it may well have overtaken Brothers In Arms, too. Then she will have Michael Jackson's Thriller in her sights. It has been an extraordinary 12 months or so for Adele, and it looks set to become even more extraordinary as the days and weeks go by." The biggest selling albums of all-time Top 10 now stands as follows: 01 GREATEST HITS – QUEEN 5,864,000 02 SGT PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND – THE BEATLES 5,045,000 03 GOLD: GREATEST HITS – ABBA - 4,992,000 04 (WHAT'S THE STORY) MORNING GLORY? – OASIS 4,520,000 05 THRILLER - MICHAEL JACKSON 4,272,000 06 BROTHERS IN ARMS - DIRE STRAITS 4,154,000 07 21 – ADELE - 4,142,000 08 THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON - PINK FLOYD - 4,116,000 09 BAD - MICHAEL JACKSON - 3,960,000 10 GREATEST HITS II – QUEEN - 3,888,000 Things are going to get interesting when 21 passes Thriller in UK sales. It will be a little hot for a few days to say the least! But sales of 21 will be helped!

it will be carnage on many forums for a few days, shades. We had a taster of what will happen when '21' had the temerity to pass the sales of 'Bad'. Multiply that reaction by at least 10! I even saw some MJ stans accuse the OCC of racism FGS!

21 only needs to get 130k more to pass Thriller. I reckon she'll do that by summer, Autumn at the latest.
There's some good promo for Adele coming up (her songs are bound to be featured on The Voice/Britain's Got Talent etc) |

HDD is sometimes wildy innacurate on the first chart(54%) as they may not have most of the major outlets sales at that point.
Anyway...Adele has sold more than DSOTM!!??...in just over a year!. DSOTM is one of my fav albums of all time!!...I'm so pleased that its been overtaken by a talented and worthwhile artist.

#1 ONE DIRECTION 177,100 #2 ADELE 21 156,082 #10 ADELE 19 21,276 So it's between the Hunger Games soundtrack, the Shins and 21 next week. After that I don't think 21 will have a chance for #1 again until middle of April. |

Mediatraffic doesn't count every country, that's true but it has to be more than ten?! Edit: Here is world chart numbers for 21. Thanks to NS! Music Charts Week 58 - 467,600 Total 20,976,900 |

Mediatraffic seems to be the most reliable and the guys that put that list together are sharp. Btw, 21 will now be 55 on that list since sales are over 20 million (it's the most recent release and should leapfrog the other 20 million sellers. lol). Wiki has it at 53 right now, but that's a step above gossip.
