Christmas With Elvis and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra

[The Pirate]

You could check yourself on the Official Chart website, every hour if you wish.

Is there no way that we can get a ticker tape running across the bottom of the screen, providing real time updates?

'Christmas' - Elvis and the RPO album remains at 9 on the Tuesday Midweek update.

Brian

Great!!

Sad!! And that’s nothing to do with the chart placing.

ALBUMS
13 UK Number 1s
52 UK Top 10s
93 UK Top 40s
119 UK Top 75s
66 Weeks at Number 1
554 Weeks in Top 10--------------------------------------yeah, quite sad.....LOL, 554 weeks in Top 10.....sad...LOL
1056 Weeks in Top 40
1425 Weeks in Top 75

Thanks for the news breaking info which I assume no one else on this forum is aware of. Nice to know you have it readily available at your fingertips. But I suspect you are really missing my point.

Brian, any Wednesday updates yet?

Good old emjel forever bashing this thread, I so love your one liner sarcastic comments !! Its what keeps me going in life

emjel = Bla bla bla bla

I’m so glad I can help you out in your apparent hour of need and desperation. Now you have two things which help to get you through the day. The ticker tape thing that The Pirate suggests could be really beneficial though as you could perhaps get up to the minute changes, a bit like the Stock Exchange.

And just in case you haven’t got it, I found this helpful number on the Internet for you and others in case Elvis should start dropping down the charts - 116 123. Keep smiling though - it’s Wednesday and you only have two more days to go.

Well not really. When it goes to top of charts or if it drops out of the top 30, then it creates some real interest for various reasons. But getting daily reports that it is stuck at #9 in the midweek chart, which in itself carries no real weight and is often meaningless as by the time the actual chart is published, the final positions change and in some instances and not just Elvis, the changes are significant. So I find these daily updates do not cut it for me. But if it gives you something to discuss around the dinner table with family and friends, then whatever turns you on.

No we really appreciate the great members here who report the chart positions and stats.

They are great and really appreciated too.

I noticed some here really dont like that these chart successes are discussed.

We will tslk about them, I told my mum about Elvis having another top ten. Great fun having thid success.

It has nothing to do with members not liking chart chart success. You could look at the chart placement 5 years down the line and if the album reached a top #7 placement mext week, then that would be it. You could discuss it’s merits next month, next year or in 10 years time. It would not change. Getting daily midweek updates will be irrelevant next week, next year or in 10 years time. But I have provided a link so that should you awake in the middle of the night with a craving to know the latest chart position, you can look it up and then discuss it around the breakfast table. Easy really.

[GERRY]

We like to enjoy this success now, in the moment. And discuss it and spread the news. This breeds more success for our man.

Buzz around releases is good and not everyone who loves Elvis will know.

It's so nice to tell them and to keep talking about this success.

[Hard Rocker]

Correct. And we will continue to do so here on FECC, no doubt about it, and this is the place to do so.

You must know the charts come out every Friday evening. So why not check this topic then or go on the official chart website? That way you won't read all the daily updates that annoy you. Just a suggestion.

Well that is a perfectly reasonable suggestion. The problem is that we do not know what the contents of the post is and as the thread title is not just about the charts, it gets opened thinking that it may contain something interesting like someone has spotted they have used a different take on the Peace In The Valley tracks or that Sony have announced they are doing a limited deluxe box set after all. Of course when something gets posted around Friday early evening, the odds are that it is about the chart placing which is perfectly reasonable and those chart positions will be documented for weeks, months and years to come. Mid week positions are somewhat meaningless.

This thread is running at over 20 thousand hits and aside from the long-running Soundscan thread is currently the most popular thread in All Elvis page 1 by quite some distance. Clearly, there's an awful lot of interest involved in it and that's all that matters.

Don't like it? Keep away or visit less frequently.

...thread is currently the most popular thread in All Elvis page 1 by quite some distance.

And that's Brians deserve?! It seems so. They thank each other repeatedly for something he did not know.

... Keep away

OK, I will.

I think Hard Rocker's post was aimed at emjel.

I, for one, appreciate your posts on charts and sales..
