W2A entered at #26 in the Canadian charts.

3121 peaked at #9 and AOA at #21, and guess what?,both of them stayed only one week in the charts biggrin

If, and that's a big if, most Canadians ordered on Amazon, there may be distribution issues since I am yet to receive my copy. I ordered in April the day it was listed. This may explain the current position of the album.

W2A now out the Japanese top 50 album.
If someone knows more...
Wasn't there a delay of the SDE release?
Wasn't there a special cheapest Japanese edition with only the CD+ blu ray?

I dont get why Sony hasnt cobbled together a Video for W2A. There most definately is strong footage from the era. Bring in Tal and Coleman. Bizarre.

At least a lyric or arhival video. Very stupid from their part, that doesn't cost much.

Netherlands chartrun for W2A : 2-12
