Top 10, yay, I was starting to think it wouldn't quite make it. Good result to say there's a lot of new stuff out by big artists in the last few weeks and it's a compilation album. I reckon over time this will sell well, but it's not something that will set the charts alight. Top 10 is good for first week sales. Probably sell a lot less next week and it'll be lucky to be in top 75

i'm thinking the opposite precisely because it's a singles collection. It might not stay top 40 for long but i doubt it'll sink like a stone

Well done for putting a compilation album in the top 10!

They should go on with Dolly to perform their Bluegrass version of Love's Sweet Exile.

[QUOTE=Phil C;2381311]To be fair, Nick has a history of liking generic indie bands who's lyrics say nothing so I'm suprised he's been critical of AM.

Why do Arctic Monkeys lyrics mean nothing? Because they're not political?

Hell YES full-band The Everlasting.

And I suppose that LSE comment answers people's fears about the acoustic blue version making an appearance in December.
