Well, then even better! :)

If you're only 4 million people and Return sold 60,000 units...that's bloody amazing!!

Cheers

I only have their greatest hits album but there are a few really great songs on there...

"Lonely" is incredible! Also, "Wildest Dreams" and "Sing me a Song"

I think it's incredible that an album like that would sell 60,000 in Norway, considering that there are only 8 million people in the country!

An album like that would have sold a total of two copies in North America

Cheers

Vince

Yeah Right!!!!!

No way dude!

The Return compilation did sell 60 000 units last year,
and went to #1. But that was just a fluke. All the 30-something
housewives wanted to replace their old vinyls from the 80s!!
