Hey, better than I predicted back in the beginning.. I said somewhere along the lines of 75 or 85 or something, 45's pretty good for the US for OLP.

Looks like they beat most people's predictions, at least!

Too bad it's not anywhere near Gravity, but that's to be expected, I guess.

They would have been higher if they put Will the future blame us as the first single

Yeah for sure.

#2 in Canada is pretty damn high.

Perhaps Raine should have gone on TV saying that Bush doesn't care about Canadians or something...

thats a good start for OLP let's hope they can go to 500,000 or more. you beat those rappers OLP.

Those American Numbers are a bit lower than I would have thought. But with a strong second single (Will The Future Blame Us..) they should have a shot at Gold in the states.

As for Canada, the high debut was expected. That said this was the least amount of records they've sold opening week. Clumsy opened with 27000, Happiness...... with 40000, SM with 36000 and Gravity with 25000. I still wonder about the choice of WAY as the first single....

Still good numbers, but I think the 3 year absence might have hurt them a bit. But those numbers show that they have staying power and are still quite relevant in Canada.

ugh, i feel like punching, hitting, and kicking something very hard every time someone says that 'will the future blame us' should be/will be the next single.

What are the latest sales figures for HIPT?

Tattooed Angels · Post by **Tattooed Angels** » 9/23/2005, 12:32 pm

I dn;t know if I put this here or not. But it debut at #45 then fell to #159. htis was last week. I have no idea where it is now..

they really need support down here.. I don;t even thingk they single is doing well as far as charts go, but the fans are still coming to the shows so I guess that is all that matters.

As far as I could find out, in Canada: 44,063 (22,284 in the first week)
And in the US: 21,348 (that's just the first week though)

can someone write the last 5 cds total sales?

Couldn't figure out where to stick this, so a thread about how the album's doing (did) in America seemed appropriate...

I can't tell you how happy seeing that made me. :lol:
