Weekly Register: Waiting On ‘Platinum’

WeeklyReg060414It’s release week for Country darling Miranda Lambert, so chart watchers will have to wait until next week to find out the tally for Platinum.

With no huge debuts, this week’s sales chart is fairly static, with Coldplay and Brantley Gilbert retaining their first and second places, respectively, on the all-genre album chart. Both in their second week of release, the Brit rockers moved 83K (down 78% from last week) and Gilbert sold 65K (down 69%).

Mariah Carey’s latest was the week’s top debut selling 58k and landing at No. 3. The top Country debut is courtesy of Jamie Lynn Spears with 2.1k.

The top five Country albums belong to Gilbert (65k), Rascal Flatts (17k), Luke Bryan (14.5k), Florida Georgia Line (14k), and Eric Church (7.5k).

Tracking Tracks

Bryan’s “Play It Again” is playing along in the No. 1 position on the Country tracks chart, selling 76.5k TW (1.228 million RTD). That is followed by Jake Owen’s sunny “Beachin'” (59k), FGL and Bryan’s “This Is How We Roll” (57k), Lee Brice’s “I Don’t Dance” (46k) and Dierks Bentley’s “Drunk on a Plane” (45k).

Jana Kramer’s “Love” is the best selling Country debut single, with 15.5k.

Check back after CMA Music Festival to see how this week’s new releases fared: Lambert, Lucy Hale, Big Smo, Native Run and Now That’s What I Call Country Vol. 7.
