Once the movie is playing in the cinnama for 2 weeks than this album will be sold even much more.

The could have released an double Soundtrack CD, which I still hope will come soon. They also could release an 3 CD Collecter Version with all the original Elvis tunes as an extra.sweetangeline wrote: ↑Wed Jun 15, 2022 2:39 pm...as would a soundtrack CD if there was oneTheKingOfMusicEP wrote: ↑Wed Jun 15, 2022 2:37 pmElvis Presley

Re: Elvis UK sales and world
hope so as well...but you gotta figure if the film does good business in the first 4 weeks of release that would be the time to cash in and the reality is under most circumstances a pre-order would be available at least a month in advance so we are at July 15 already and nothing??TheKingOfMusicEP wrote: ↑Wed Jun 15, 2022 2:51 pmThe could have released an double Soundtrack CD, which I still hope will come soon.

Re: Elvis UK sales and world
I have my doubts we will see a physical release otherwise we would have seen pre-ordering by now and ordering off the success of the movie while it is still in people’s minds. I suspect the soundtrack is being aimed at the much wider audience of the current generation who are basically into streaming and who can cherry pick the tracks they like.TheKingOfMusicEP wrote: ↑Wed Jun 15, 2022 2:51 pmThe could have released an double Soundtrack CD, which I still hope will come soon.

Re: Elvis UK sales and world
For me I would go for the CD just to have it in my collection, but I will keep on listen to the original. I will also go for the new (old) expanded Version of 30 / 1.

It’s better than nothing though and it’s the way things seem to be moving . But that aside, it seems your wish had been granted as Sony will be releasing a disc of 22 tracks including the non Elvis tracks toward the end of July.TheKingOfMusicEP wrote: ↑Wed Jun 15, 2022 11:03 pmWon't be the sameemjel wrote: ↑Wed Jun 15, 2022 6:15 pmI’m sure you’ll be able to download the soundtrack when it gets released next Friday for streaming.

What is that? An Soundtrack CD of an "Elvis" movie without Elvis on it.

Re: Elvis UK sales and world
90 songs for less than £5 and it’s bound to generate some sales. But you should be looking at the U.K. chart if you want anything meaningful for charts sales/stats - the Scottish chart is almost a subsidiary and sales are likely to be a couple of hundred at the most - nothing to get too excited about.TheKingOfMusicEP wrote: ↑Sun Jun 19, 2022 12:24 amOfficial Scottish Albums Chart Top 100

I’m not really sure what that chart tells us or reveals anything meaningful - 6 places above is Saturday Night Fever and then included in that chart are an assortment of albums that go back decades and have already sold very well - Grease, Help, Top Gun etc. and Saturday Night Fever again.Jaime1234 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 19, 2022 1:14 amAlbum now at #11 in Soundtrack chart https://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/music/42/ref=pd_zg_hrsr_music

Re: Elvis UK sales and world
Maybe it is telling that the old soundtracks still selling good enough to be high in that charts. It is like the Billboard 200 album Chart there is just to name one album now at number 60 Bob Marley And The Wailers Legend: The Best Of... now for 734 weeks on that charts. So it still finds enough people who wants that album. So it could be that enough people still want to own a new copy of the old soundtracks?emjel wrote: ↑Sun Jun 19, 2022 1:37 amI’m not really sure what that chart tells us or reveals anything meaningful - 7 places below is Saturday Night Fever and then included in that chart are an assortment of albums that go back decades and have already sold very well - Grease, Help, Top Gun etc. and Saturday Night Fever again.Jaime1234 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 19, 2022 1:14 amAlbum now at #11 in Soundtrack chart https://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/music/42/ref=pd_zg_hrsr_music

Re: Elvis UK sales and world
The point is that all of those albums I mentioned are not in the Billboard 200 chart because their sales are simply not enough to get in that chart. These days, you can get into the bottom end of BB200 with sales of around 1000 copies - Saturday Night Fever is several places higher than "Elvis" yet SNF is not in the BB200 chart, which suggest SNF has sold less than 1000 copies, which further suggests that the "Elvis" album has sold even less, making the sales insignificant at the moment.TheKingOfMusicEP wrote: ↑Sun Jun 19, 2022 4:05 amMaybe it is telling that the old soundtracks still selling good enough to be high in that charts. It is like the Billboard 200 album Chart there is just to name one album now at number 60 Bob Marley And The Wailers Legend: The Best Of... now for 734 weeks on that charts. So it still finds enough people who wants that album. So it could be that enough people still want to own a new copy of the old soundtracks?emjel wrote: ↑Sun Jun 19, 2022 1:37 amI’m not really sure what that chart tells us or reveals anything meaningful - 6 places above is Saturday Night Fever and then included in that chart are an assortment of albums that go back decades and have already sold very well - Grease, Help, Top Gun etc. and Saturday Night Fever again.Jaime1234 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 19, 2022 1:14 amAlbum now at #11 in Soundtrack chart https://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/music/42/ref=pd_zg_hrsr_music
Now obviously the Elvis Soundtrack won’t have physical sales as it is not released yet, but I cannot even find the album listed on the Amazon site for pre-orders, so how has that chart been created? What has placed that album in that position? Or is it Amazon playing the hype game to attract sales?
