Mariah selling strong worldwide during hiatus

This week Mariah's re-released and re-packaged single One Sweet Day sits at #53 on the Billboard singles chart. When first released in 1996, the single was certified platinum, for sales of over 1 million copies. It went on to spend a record-breaking 16 weeks (almost 4 months) at the top of the Billboard Hot 100. The Never Too Far/Hero benefit single falls from #48 to #59 with sales of 620 in the US this week (down from 840 the previous week).

Glitter is amongst the most rented movies in Spain and throughout Asia. There has also been a surprising demand for the film at rental outlets in various countries including Australia. Did you know that the Glitter soundtrack was the highest selling album released by a foreign artist in China in 2001? Last week the album was certified gold in Brasil (sales of 100,000), and it re-enters the chart in Argentina this week at #39.

Many thanks to Mariah World.
