Oasis dig out huge first-day sales for new album
10:40 | Tuesday October 7, 2008
By Paul Williams
Oasis have claimed one of the fastest first-day sales of the year, with their
new album Dig Out Your Soul selling nearly 90,000 units during its first day
of business.
The Big Brother-issued album up to yesterday was outselling the present
number one, Hand Me Down/Columbia act Kings of Leon’s Only By The Night, by
nearly five units to one. The Kings of Leon album itself only three weeks ago
achieved one of 2008’s best first days when it opened with just under 80,000
sales.
The Oasis retrospective Stop The Clocks, also released by Big Brother through
Sony BMG, should make a return to the Top 40 this weekend, moving up from its
present chart position of 34.
The new Oasis album is expected to be joined in the Top 10 this coming Sunday
by Columbia’s new Bob Dylan set Tell Tell Signs – Bootleg Series Vol 8. The
last Bootleg album reached 21 in September 2005, the highest chart placing to
date for the series.
Around new entries from Oasis and Dylan, the current chart is set to shuffle
around with last Sunday’s big new entries at two and three, 19/RCA act Will
Young’s Let It Go and Polydor act James Morrison’s Songs For You Truths For
Me, both likely to move down a place when the new chart is unveiled.
Slam Dunk Records signings You Me At Six are challenging for a Top 20 debut,
while the chart will also welcome in a new entry from The Clash, The Sony
BMG-issued Live At Shea Stadium, and a Chicane retrospective, which is
released through independent Modena.
While they are almost certainties to top the albums chart, Oasis on singles
can probably say goodbye to their attempt to head the chart with The Shock Of
The Lightning, which debuted at three on Sunday but is now slipping down. It
continues to be outsold by the current number one, LaFace/RCA act Pink’s So
What, which still leads the market this week, and the Kings of Leon hit Six
On Fire, but Oasis have now been overtaken by Island act Sugababes’ Girls.
A&M/Polydor signings The Courteeners are in a two-way battle with B
Unique/Polydor’s Kaiser Chiefs for highest new entry honours, although both
their new tracks – That Kiss and Never Miss A Beat – are almost certainties
for Top 10 placings.
Hard2Beat’s Platnum’s latest single Love Shy (Thinking About You) has so
far gained around 70% in sales from last week following its physical debut on
Monday. Meanwhile, new entry activity within the Top 40 this coming weekend
should include Relentless/Virgin’s Cage The Elephant and Fiction/Polydor’s
Snow Patrol.
The full midweek singles and albums charts are available on musicweek.com and
are updated daily.
