USA Album Sales (definitive numbers)
 

It still doesn't answer the age old question of how many copies each album has sold, but here are the current USA figures according to Billboard.

CD \ SOLD\ PEAK POSITION
Bon Jovi 2 million 43
7800 F. 1 million 37
SWW 12 million 1 (8 weeks)
NJ 7 million 1 (4 weeks)

Cross Road 3.06 million 8
These Days 654,000 9

PS: Sorry... it doesn't make a pretty little chart when it posts. I tried!

ooooooooh. I know Jovi arent that popular in America, but i had NO idea that KTF, These Days, and Crush were THAT low...under a million for TD...wow..does anyone have the "world-wide" sales numbers by chance?

Thanks for posting that Becky.. that's interesting.
I would have thought These Days has sold more than that.. :?

i would have thought these days and come to think of it keep the faith would have done a whole lot better

those are actual sales. RIAA certifications are for units SHIPPED. therefore KTF is actually 2x platinum. Cross Road is 4x platinum. TD has been certified platinum. Crush is 2x platinum. OWN Live should be close to being able to be certified Gold. The rest are correct as they are.

That's almost 30 million records.How can you call it poor?I didn't know BON JOVI sold 2 million.cool!

hey thats well cool cos that is alot of albums to sell! and alot of people to own a bon jovi album

these days
 

the reason for the low sale of these days is that everybody can not understand it as soon as they listen. the tracks are getting better when u listen them. u get different feelings and see different meanings in every time u listen...it is a complicated album...
if u want to love TD u got to have the same feelings as the album has. u've got to be alone, left , confused ,lost...and then listening to TD is the best thing u can do...

Re: these days
 

NO.The reason for the lack of sales in 'These Days' is the Lack of a Hit Single.The Album is Amazing as it is but it's just not what people were used to see Bon Jovi do.And the musical Climate when These Days was released was "ok Grunge is over and Boys to Men are a hit and Punk is something new and it's topping the Charts" it was either Left or Right and Bon Jovi were right in the middle.

Yeah, TD does take time to get into, but as a whole, it's a great album.
