Burning bridges world chart positions

The general decline in sales seem logical. But how the hell did LH manage to outsell HAND in UK?

Memory was a strong single among fans.

Nope, outside of North America it wasn't. It went 33 in UK, whereas HAND (the song) went 6 and Who Says went 5.

Memory had a lot of airplay here (not like HAND, but it had some).

It's weird how charts changes from country to country, Who Says You Can't Go Home was non-existent here, for example.

14000 copies? That's really poor. Forget Wembley Stadium in the next tour lads!

I would say after the circle is when streaming become really popular (spotify) was formed in 06) hence the dramatic album sale decline.

Streaming has killed the music industry.

I can't believe that people really believe this.

You can't compare this to a regular Bon Jovi album release. You just can't.

You don't think it has?

Why buy an album for £12.99 when you can have access to all albums for free? Or £9.99 for premium? Or worse still steal it?

Ok we know it's a collection of old songs. Do a lot of people?

So from sales, if streaming hasn't damaged album sales we can assume that BJ are now no longer relevant and fans have deserted them to due sub standard albums over last few years?

How do explain 38000 of WAN and 14000 of BB? An album is a new album to the fans if not the band.

Or fans don't really care for songs that were deemed not good enough for proper albums??

Burning Bridges has debuted at #3 in Australia too
