I've just been reading about Robin Thicke's latest album, a cri de coeur which he knocked together in the space of a few weeks with the aim of winning back the heart of his estranged wife.
Apparently this wretched thing sold 530 copies in the UK in its first week, 550 in Canada, 158 in Australia, and has managed a miserable 30,000 units shifted in the US in two months. That's pretty impressive.
I also seem to recall that Goddess In The Doorway by Mick Jagger racked up three-figure sales in its first week too, despite (or perhaps due to) the helping hand of a five-star review in Rolling Stone by his old buddy Jann Wenner.
Any more for any more?
