There are several "Reality" chart threads around but I think that it would be nice to have an internationally collective one to get an overview of how the album is developing chartwise. So please donate your knowledge here.

I am more than happy to be able to supply the freshly released initial "Reality" chart positions from this German speaking part of old Europe:

Germany: Entering at an impressive # 3, even better than "Heathen" at # 4

Austria: Also in at # 3

Switzerland: In at # 5

A pretty good start I would say, let's see if it beats Heathen's impressive stamina of 4 1/2 months in the German Top100.

p.s.: Any ideas which Bowie site Austrians and Suiss prefer?


And I want to believe
In the madness that calls 'now'

Finland # 9
Top Ten everywere.
Great

UK: #3

Australia: #13

US: who's this David Bouwie?

Who sucks you while you're sleeping

Reality entered the French charts at #2.

Wear your wound with honour.

Copied from Gentry's thread:

Reality in the United States of America:
32,922 soundscanned, merely at #29 <sigh>.

Heathen debuted at #11 with 55,030 units....and:
Hours...28,600 units its first week
Earthling 33,560
Outside 37,709


And I want to believe
In the madness that calls 'now'

Canada - #13
Vancouver - #6

...don't tell god your plans...

Yes well !! the US to a large extent has such a philistine culture,it`s hardly surprising? At least they`ve got something in common with Palestinians.

No info about Reality has been announced in Poland yet.

There are no answers. Only decisions...

I thought it would do worse, to be honest, considering it's getting next to no airplay (except for that interview Bowie did this past week on 'Rockline', a syndicated radio show.)

Don't understand me, just love me
