Yes, 4 times P is a great achievement, but I wish they passed VLV

Hope they can i think VLV should be close to 1.4 by now and hopefully they do something or some promo in Christmas season to prolong longevity and get those xmas sales

X&Y's cert has also been updated, from 4xPlat. to 6xPlat.

Hope EMI has also updated certs for Parachutes and AROBTTH.

Another top 20 hit

by **danbarj** » Sun May 27, 2012 1:59 pm

I am so happy to see PoC top 20 in the UK!!! And gunning right now!!!

The album is probably eligible for 4x P now, and should go 5x P in the end once the dust settles! Truely consistent band when it comes to album sales, no matter the size of their hits!!!

I love Coldplay!

Pity that CB was not able to reach top 20 :wink:

It was a pity, but helped longevity so it is cool. Hopefully, PoC and the next single will clean up.

Great news for sales! 8-)

want to see more increases within the next weeks

If they want to keep stable sales, they need to release Hurt Like Heaven as a 5th single IMO :wink:

Princess Of China is taking kinda long to reach No. 1 in the UK and as you know: The longer it takes, you harder reach the top!

At this point, I don't think most anyone (minus Rihanna fans) would care about the song going No. 1!

I certainly don't! I want it to impact the album's sales for several months. 4x P is here now (album is already eligible) and I want this and whatever the follow-up single to push this album to 5x P at the least!

I hope POC gets that #1 position ! Its such a beautiful song
