According to the last midweeks it was #20, so it's probably just outside top 20 in the final chart.

I think "MINIMAL" will be longer in the charts.
This must be the place I waited years to leave

Fundamental down to #22. I'm with stupid is out of the top 75.

And Orson top the album chart this week. If you ever needed proof that the UK public have no taste and/or are stupid, there you go.

Down to number 22 is very disappointing. Just hope that they choose the right second single. I wonder how Parlophone are feeling after putting such a concerted effort into this albums success. Lets hope the tour helps to keep the album in the top 75 for the rest of the year. Perhaps all the critical acclaim isn't enough any more. Shame really

Well Parlo will look at sales all over Europe, not just the UK. It's number 2 in the European charts!

Pretty disappointing second week here though. :(

The problem is that they have to connect with new fans and it doesn't happen.

...and I'm with stupid did not attract new fans with a chartrun of 8-23-47 and out...
Still i think that Fundamental woke up some old fans and it will be psb biggest seller since Billingual. :)

Why is it a problem? It wont ever happen. Thinking it will is stupidity. The album has sold far more copies than expected. It's already easily beaten the previous 2 albums' sales. Get a grip for god sake. PSB are a pop group who are still getting a top 5 album 21 years on.If it had charted at 22 in its first week, then there was cause for concern.Remember also, that it wasn't advertised on prime time t.v.

It's performed brilliantly all over Europe. Take comfort that it never charted at 102!!
