silver Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Wonderful news!! I've been listening to the chart show and they mentioned the top albums. LICM has gone up to number four in the chart!! That is absolutely fantastic. The single, Relax is at number 20 in the charts this week, and Grace Kelly and Happy Endings are still in the top 40. I think what has been happening is that more people are downloading the album, rather than the Relax single, but it is fantastic that the album has jumped up so high again!!! LICM has been in the chart for 48 weeks, but Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black" has now been there for 60 weeks. The charts after Christmas used to be known as the "token" charts, as it was when everyone rushed out to spend the record tokens they had been given for Christmas. I think it’s now more of an "MP3" chart, as everyone seems to be downloading the CDs and tracks that they missed out on earlier in the year to their new MP3 players. The result of this is that not only has LICM gone back up to no 4 in the album chart, but Mika also has 5(!!) separate tracks in the top 100 singles: Relax (20), Grace Kelly (35), Happy Ending (39), Big Girl (70) and Lollipop (presumably as a download from LICM) at no 77. Go Mika! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marilyn Mastin Posted January 8, 2008 Author Share Posted January 8, 2008 Hi Marilyn. My husband fancies Victoria Principal when she was in Dallas in the early days. We've been watching them on DVD and I can see him having the old 'sly drool' (even though he won't admit it...). She was really stunningly gorgeous though, I can understand it, and I can hardly moan about it when he has to put up with me fancying the pants off Mika 24/7 Ah, marriage, give and take, etc etc Yes it IS give and take!!! He gives and I take...!!! Just kidding!!! Love today, from Marilyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babspanky Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Well LICM feel a few places again, then last week it was no 11 I think, then this week, it is back in the top ten at no 9. This is fantastic, more than a year in the charts now, and I hope the Brits exposure will generate more sales! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatagordinha Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 LICM is the only one of the Best Album Brit nominees in the current Top 10. It really should win that award! People are still buying this after a whole year for a reason and this should be acknowledged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Happy to report that LICM has now been in the album charts for 18 months In that time, it was in the Top 20 albums for 58 weeks. Its highest position was no. 1 (of course), and it has been as low as no. 83, but for the last few weeks it has been hovering around the no. 65 position.
