Granted it's the Cayman's, but to look at that list and see the RPO album on top of names like Adele, Beyonce' and Drake...just wow.

It charted for 2 weeks.
Not very high either.
Maybe #150 in the second week?
I was dissapointed.
Also, in the Phila. area there was very little Carpenters airplay.
Not sure why.

For some reason the Carpenters recording of "The End of the World" has charted in the Top 300 on UK iTunes tonight. #328 when I saw it.
Any ideas why?
I know 328 isn't smashing the charts but when you consider all the current songs charting... and literally every song ever released on digital platforms in theory could chart. So why this one?
This last year in the UK we've seen CTY, WOJB and TOTW chart in the Top 100 (the former two were both certified silver too for 200,000 digital sales)
Nice to see a non-single getting a bit of attention. Has it been used on an ad or something?

Thanks,
I haven't seen that ad yet. I'll keep an eye out. Hopefully it'll do good for the song like the bank ad with "We've Only Just Begun" which despite not being the Carpenters version, will got theirs to the Top 100 and certified silver.

Could it have been this one? Although...perhaps not, because this ad is from 2018

Here's an interesting one...
"I Can Dream, Can't I?"
Is currently the No.1 song on iTunes for the Caribbean Island of Dominica

Breaking news... iTunes sold a song to someone in Dominica today! Details at 6:00...
To put things in perspective, Dominica is one of the poorest islands in the Caribbean, largely due to its being regularly devastated by hurricanes. In 2017, Hurricane Maria destroyed 90% of the buildings on the island, leaving most of the population homeless. Understandably, not a lot of people there can afford Apple devices, and it won't take many sales at all to reach #1.
But hey, Carpenters got a #1! We'll take it regardless!
