The Best So Far debuted at #10 in Australia!

Amazing! They have missed her! Does the albums chart include streaming?

It’s also #33 on the Digital Albums chart.

idk, from what I can read in the picture it says "for achievement of 172 Million Sales Units in Indonesia", albums would be my guess.
the other 2 plaques are impossible to make out what they say.

It doesn't relate to worldwide sales, as it states "in Indonesia" - so I'm inclined to believe that the 172 million figure includes streams (Indonesia is routinely her most streamed market on YouTube).

Yes, it does. That's why I'm surprised with this top ten debut

Me too! So then it should chart higher on the physical albums chart :-)

If I’m not wrong there’s no Albums sales chart...isn’t it?

No, only digital and physical charts

So since October 2016, ATW would have shifted 97.000 copies.
And not including the music clubs sales (Columbia House and BMG Direct) right? Based on the very interesting page, ATW would have sold 1.100.000 at BMG , but not being distributed at Columbia
https://chartmasters...album-sales/11/
Maybe the reason why ATW has not reached 10 million sale milestone and has been certified Diamond

What were Celine's biggest hits in Austrailia?

Do we think there any songs that might get added to this tour because they were successful there?

#8 It's All Coming Back To Me Now
#9 Tell Him

#12 Falling Into You
#14 That's The Way It Is

So amongst her biggest hits Down Under, Céline could pick Tell Him to perform on stage for the first time in almost 20 years(!)   I'd love her to sing Immortality too

I must say I wasn't expecting the album to chart so high! I know we're in July so sales are probably not huge but I'm happy to see people still want to buy a compliation from Céline with those same songs...and I'm looking forward to see the effect of the tour that's just about to start!

As a reminder, here are Céline's latest peak positions on the Physical Albums chart:

18.11.13 Loved Me Back To Life entered and peaked at #8
03.11.08 My Love - Ultimate Essential Collection peaked at #24

The two clearly do translate here - she could've sold out that venue in Indonesia 5 additional times.

The woman has ungodly and enduring popularity in Asia.

When it comes to venue choice, I can only assume that she's managed to secure some sort of deal with the concert promoter that maximises the level of return.

Not to mention that the venue choicss were made based on association to Caesars / Harrahs ent. As shows in the choices of venues related to casinos


But youre right. Fact is she was able to sell out the tokyo dome for two nights in minutes in both 2008 and 2014, so a 7,000 arena aint much

Zero efforts, maximum results.

If I were Sony, seeing these results, I wouldn't mind releasing a new album.

That's what I'm worried about.

At least let Céline perform a new single (like she did with LBMTL) to gain some hype

If that's the case, I guess she would do it during the last dates in New Zealand.

[emi&celine]

Tell Him has become Céline's 17th song to count more than 100.000 equivalent sales on Spotify (15M streams)

Loved Me Back To Life is the next one (really close).
