Using SoundScan and Billboard numbers, NLOTH's run in the U.S. is:

1-3-2-6-12-14-16-22

484,472* + 132,494 + 76,317 + 51,179 + 35,989 + 34,764 + 20,545 + 17,457

Total: 853,244

*Includes 547 copies due to "early street sales".

Hope MAG will do well in the US, it's such a great song, one of my top 5 of all time already and push the album a bit. Still shocked they haven't reached 1 million in the US yes, your should push it a bit and next year's grammy's as well, but damn!!

Had NLOTH been released during the same time frame, it might have come close as well. "Vertigo" clearly gave HTDAAB a big boost, so maybe NLOTH wouldn't have received that type of sales, but if NLOTH could still almost sell 500K its first week in March, I'm pretty sure it would have sold 600-700K its first week in November. Then, with the rest of the holiday season, NLOTH would probably be at the 1.5M mark or more by now.

March releases still can work, but if U2 cares about this album being a big hit, clearly more promotion is needed. The lack of a real push for "Magnificent" does make me wonder. And with the tour months away, the album may not even be in the Top 100 by then, unless U2 does something to retain interest. Kings of Leon may not have big Hot 100 hits, but they have Alternative hits and that's enough to keep their album selling at a steady 15-20K per week. Unless "Magnificent" finally crosses over to Adult Contemporary (the way "Beautiful Day" did), I'm not sure what else U2 can do, other than appear on more TV shows and whatnot.

At this pace, it will take about three months for the real sales to get to 1 M in the US. Unless sales start to increase, which is highly unlikely considering Magnificent seems to have peaked on the charts and the tour won´t have any effect in the US until September.

Only if sales pretty much even off, if not it will take even longer
