Billboard update The following information is from Billboard magazine, November 6, 1999
Firstly, a note that appears on the cover of this week's Billboard in a fairly extensive article. Most of the article is the same as Billboard Online (http://www.billboard.com/daily/feature/artist.asp), although it is longer. The article also contains a track-by-track review of Rave (which I will transcribe later and send it to prince.org).
Here is the chart information: [pre:0deadbeef0] Hot 100 Singles & Tracks TW - #73 LW - #95 WO - 3 PEAK - #73 Hot 100 Airplay Has not charted yet Hot 100 Singles Sales TW - #22 LW - #23 WO - 3 PEAK - #22 Hot R&B Singles TW - #30 LW - #41 WO - 3 PEAK - #30 TGRES IS THE GREATEST GAINER/AIRPLAY THIS WEEK Hot R&B Singles Sales TW - #16 LW - #16 WO - 3 PEAK - #16 Hot R&B Singles Airplay TW - #42 LW - #67 WO - 2 PEAK - #42 [/pre:0deadbeef0] Blurb in 'The Rhythm Session': HE'S BACK: After releasing a couple of albums via the Internet and limited distribution on his NPG label, The Artist Formerly Known As Prince hits a new chart stride with the help of his new label home, Arista. "The Greatest Romance Ever Sold" (NPG/Arista) rises 41-30 on Hot R&B Singles & Tracks, winning the Greatest Gainer/Airplay for an audience increase of more than 5 million listeners. The commercial single, released to retail Oct. 12, holds at No. 16 on Hot R&B Singles Sales. The new single marks The Artist's highest chart position since "I Hate U" (NPG/Warner Bros.) hit No. 3 in the fall of 1995. | |
