These Days was only 20 weeks in the Billboard Hot 100, and Bounce was in there for 29 weeks. Lost Highway is already 24 weeks in that chart, so yes, the album is way more succesfull than the examples you mentioned.

Europe on the contrary has already forgotten the album. I think it was out of the charts after 8 weeks or so.

Yes, Bounce debuted at #2, and fell very quickly.

hey, wait a minute. You said that bounce was in there for 29 weeks and LH is about 24. There's still 5 weeks until LH beat Bounce, and if i'm not wrong LH is in the #72 position of the chart, i'm not sure if LH is about to beat Bounce...

And as mentioned, Bounce and These Days both won only Platinum status by RIAA. That's why i said something about NOT successful album examples.

While Bounce was in the charts for 29 weeks, but I believe LH has had stronger sales ovr it's run.
Totally ignoring album quality for a second, why is it so hard for you to admit LH has been a success in he US?

But Bounce was in there while the American leg was still going. Lost Highway is already 24 weeks in the chart, yet the American Tour still needs to start.

No wonder as the Bounce tour didn't start that late as the LH tour. So another dumb statement?! I forgot to count............

Maybe you're right... i think it's why LH is artistically poor in my opinion, i'm trying to convince myself that LH is a disaster when it's the opposite.

uh, yeah... i forgot about the tour. This is really something that helps in album sales.
Eh... don't you think that maybe the guys in the band was afraid to release an album without tour promotion? and that's why they changed their plans?

That was actually what I said. So what addition to the board does this reply have besides trying to make me look like a fool and yet failing because you can't understand what people say on this board and looking like a fool yourself?

You are a fool actually as you donÄt understand your own posts superstupid. YOu said when the Bounce tour started the record was still high in the charts while LH won't be. So no wonder as there is more tme in between releases.
you sounded like accusing them for the fact that the record will be low in the charts when the tour starts.
If you followed the news you knew that there was actually NO tour planned at all dummy. So that's why theres so much time in between. Nuff said? YOu understand now ?

No, that's not what I said, and nobody talked about the time in between the releases. I explained why Lost Highway already is a bigger succes in America in the charts than Bounce is. So no, I'm not the fool, you seem to be the one who did not understand what I posted, and what everybody else is talking about in this topic.

I already understood the entire thing. You however seem to be having difficulties with it.
