Number Ones Top 20 on US Album Chart

Sales of the album outperform Hits Daily predictions

Michael Jackson's Number Ones, which has been slowly creeping back into the upper echelon of Billboard's Top 200 Album chart, soared 39-15 on a 22% sales spike to 47,000 copies in its eighth week of release. The greatest hits album has now sold just under 500,000 copies in the US.

Yesterday, we told you that Michael's album was going to come in at around No. 34 on the chart. That prediction, from Hits Daily Double, likely did not include sales reported directly from Sony via orders placed at www.mjcombopack.com or through the toll-free number made available during the Number Ones broadcast on CBS. Those orders were shipped last week.
