I think Thankful sold like 3 Million here, and another Million in Europe

I believe Thankful was way off of the 100, 000 mark here in the UK. I don't think it sold well in other parts of Europe either.


Now onto Gwen, Mariah and Kelly in the UK..

Gwen's sold around 650, 000 copies of her album this year in the UK. Mariah has sold around 345, 000 copies of her album this year in the UK. Kelly has now sold over 217, 000 and she's been selling over 20, 000 a week for the past month now and doesn't look to be stopping from midweek figures. Both artists have released a few singles in the UK and have flown over quite a bit to promote their albums. Kelly has done zero promotion for her album since it was released so you only have to wonder how her sales will go once she starts promoting it over here. Christmas is coming up soon too so I truly suspect Kelly has a good chance at reaching or getting close to the 500, 000 mark by the end of 2005 (which would put her album in the Top 20 of 2005 list based off of sales). And for non UKers.. Breakaway was only released mid-July in the UK so it's quite a success story as Kelly wasn't really known here prior to SUBG.
