    I'm not good at chart searches, but I don't think the last 2 albums peaked at #1
  3. SOS is not selling any better than any of U2's other albums.

    Songs of Experience debuted with the following figures in 2017:
    US: 186,000 album equivalent units (ticket bundling promotion helped)
    UK: 40,669 album equivalent units

    Songs of Surrender:
    US: 46,500 album equivalent units
    UK: 20,569 album equivalent units
  7. crazy how so low copies sold in this year peaked #2
  8. 2nd week on the UK Album Chart: dropped from #1 to #34
  9. Not even in Australia top 50 albums.
    Spent one week in top 50. Ouch.
  10. Meh. It's still in my top "listen to almost nightly" LOL
  11. That pales in comparison to how it did in the US in week 2. On the Billboard 200, it went from #5 to dropping off the chart completely. As in, at least a 195-spot drop-off.
