    I don’t care where they place on any charts, they would still be #1 on my list regardless of the meaningless statistics

    That's wonderful. Read another thread. As long as you're here, sales aren't meaningless. Selling records enabled the band to have the career it enjoys today.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    According to HDD, we're back in the top-50

    -- 49 PEARL JAM MONKEYWRENCH/REPUBLIC 11,293 --

    HDD's chart doesn't include catalog titles, I think. "Lightning Bolt" fell two spots to No. 65 on the Billboard 200.

    After eight weeks, "Lightning Bolt" sits at #65 on The Billboard 200. How does this compare with prior Pearl Jam studio albums in their eighth week of release?

    "Vs.": #3
    "Vitalogy": #7*
    "No Code": #29
    "Yield": #31
    "Pearl Jam": #51
    "Lightning Bolt": #65
    "Backspacer": #69
    "Binaural": #84
    "Riot Act": #124
    "Ten": Not charted

    *Does not include two weeks available on vinyl only (debuted at #55 vinyl-only, then fell to #173 before leaping to #1 upon the CD release).

    Chart run (8 weeks): 1-2-11-18-28-31-63-65

    Not bad for only six weeks of sales. (I think the chart year ended two weeks ago.)

    Back up the charts this week! #40 on Billboard 200.

    http://www.billboard.com/charts/billboard-200?page=1

    This record seems to have some legs and should be well on its way to Gold status.

    FYI-- no. 38 sold 17,748 copies, so no. 40 was probably around 17,000.

    Why not release a third single and try get some airplay?

    Both Sirens and MYM are dead I suppose on the radio?

    "Sirens" is still at No. 6 on Billboard's Rock Airplay chart after 14 weeks. It is No. 21 on Hot Rock Songs (up a notch from last week). It is No. 5 on Hard Rock Digital Songs (down from No. 1 last week), but all four songs ahead of it are catalog titles.

    So there's still a little life in that number. It hasn't crossed over to pop radio.

    Looking at youtube, the Sirens video has gotten more views than the videos to Kings of Leon- Supersoaker and Nine Inch Nails - Come Back Haunted... so cool.

    Yea they need to ride this as long as they can. Right when you think it will die down it moves up on the chart. Surprised it hasn't made it into top 40 radio. It's not like there haven't been 5 minute songs on there. Not many but there have been.

    If that short film is any indication, that and Getaway are future singles. Speaking of future, Possibly Future Days as well.

    it still bugs me that Vs and Vitalogy haven't gotten past 7x platinum and 5x platinum. They've been stuck there for over 10 years.
