Holds the #1 spot in Spain for yes a 5th week!
1-1-1-2-1-1

also 18 Singles back into top 50 at #50 (from #60) & TJT holding steady at #64 (from #63). They also still have 7 dvd's in the music dvd top 20. The Spanish are indeed going U2 crazy!

Radio and Records, and therefore Billboard, updated today and it looks like Magnificent has peaked in the U.S.

On Triple A
Magnificent stays at #2 w/decrease in plays

On Alternative
Magnificent stops at 18 with decrease in plays

On Hot AC
Magnificent moves up from 31 to 28 w/increase in plays

On Mainstream Rock
Magnificent drops from 13 to 15 with decrease in plays

In Canada, Magnificent goes up from 13 to 7 on the Rock chart, again garnering "Most increased Plays"

Now, on Mediabase, which measures all radio stations on all formats, Magnificent has peaked on Triple A as well...but it has been number 1 for 3 weeks now. Also, about 5 days ago, Magnificent began slipping on the Alternative, Rock, and HAC as well. However, that chart updates every day, and now Magnificent is rising again on all 3 of the above mentioned formats (not Triple A...but it's still #1 and has lost about 7 spins).

So, maybe the jury is still out, but it will take a great video, some sort of b-side(s) included with the download of the single, and perhaps a front page Ad on i-tunes during the week of it's release. I'm beginning to wonder if Magnificent will even be officially released in the U.S., which I think is a mistake. Guess all the promotion for singles will be outside the U.S., and the tour will be relied upon to help album sales. Still have to remember that NLOTH is the biggest selling album of 2009 by a 2-1 margin...along with an article a few weeks back in Billboard that pegged U2 as the "most pirated" band in the world...with estimates of over 1M downloads of NLOTH (or at least 6 of 11 songs) already.

Oops...I meant to post this in the "NLOTH Singles Charts" thread. Can't move it now.

in the UK - the market is fairly sensitive to personal appearances and tours, largely because the media market is quite centralized (few TV stations but a big reach, few serious magazine but a big reach, a few radio stations that effectively control the airwaves there.)

So far the band have opted to rehearse for the tour than do the chat show/ breakfast TV show/ record store signing SLOG that they once had to do. The UK shows will see a fairly serious pickup in album sales. I think double platinum by the end of the year is doable. The album is generating better word of mouth than the likes of pop so I think it will have a longer shelf life. Remember Pop had a shitload of top 10 singles in the UK but after Staring at the Son , none of the others lifted the album much. Word of mouth had already killed it.

Im impressed at Spain , Italy and Germany. U2 dont typically show great staying power in the German top 10 so thats encouraging.
