Michael Jackson's This Is It enters The Billboard 200 at #1

Michael Jackson's This Is It enters The Billboard 200 at #1, with first-week sales of 373,000 copies. This is the biggest weekly sales tally for a Jackson album since HIStory: Past, Present And Future-Book I rang up first-week sales of 391,000 in June 1995. This Is It outpaced the impressive tallies that Number Ones rang up in the weeks after Jackson's death. That greatest hits set posted sales of 339,000 and 349,000 in the first two weeks of July. So, Jackson is still setting records: No other artist has topped the 300,000 weekly sales mark twice this year, much less three times.

Jackson is the first artist to top The Billboard 200 posthumously since The Notorious B.I.G., who scored in March 2007 with Greatest Hits. This Is It posted the biggest posthumous weekly sales tally since an earlier Biggie album, Duets: The Final Chapter, which sold 438,000 copies in one week in December 2005.

This Is It reaches #1 by displacing another theatrical movie soundtrack, The Twilight Saga: New Moon. This marks the first time that theatrical movie soundtracks have topped the chart in back-to-back weeks since July 1998, when Armageddon replaced City Of Angels in the top slot.

This Is It is the first soundtrack to a concert movie to reach #1 since U2's Rattle And Hum logged six weeks on top in 1988. Two recent soundtracks from concert movies reached #3: Miley Cyrus' Best Of Both Worlds Concert and Jonas Brothers' Music From The 3D Concert Experience.

There's bound to be some debate over whether This Is It should be called a soundtrack. The album features studio (and a few demo) versions of the songs heard in the movie. The copy on the album cover is "the music that inspired the movie." The movie credits refer to it a "companion album" rather than a soundtrack. Nonetheless, Nielsen/SoundScan includes the album on its soundtrack chart. I, too, think it should be considered a soundtrack. The album has the same title and artwork as the movie poster and ads. It's not a soundtrack in the classic sense, but it's the closest thing to one that's available. If there were a chart for Top Movie Companion Albums, that would be the place for it. In the absense of that, we can call it a soundtrack.

Jackson long wanted to be a movie star, a sort of modern-day Fred Astaire. In death, he got at least part of his wish: a #1 box-office hit. This Is It topped the box-office in its opening weekend with a domestic gross of more than $23 million. Jackson is only the fifth music star in the last 25 years to star in a movie that came in #1 at the box-office and also spawned a #1 soundtrack (on which the star was featured). The others are Prince, with 1984's Purple Rain; Whitney Houston, with 1995's Waiting To Exhale; Will Smith, with 1997's Men In Black; and Eminem, with 2002's 8 Mile.

'Michael Jackson's This Is It.'


Directed by 'High School Musical's Kenny Ortega and chronicling the months from April through June 2009, the film is drawn from more than one hundred hours of behind-the-scenes footage, featuring Jackson rehearsing a number of his songs for the show. Audiences will be given a privileged and private look at the late, great "King of Pop" as he has never been seen before. In raw and candid detail, 'This Is It' captures the legendary entertainment icon at work as he creates and perfects his final show.

Having seen the film last night, it's an amazing "almost concert " film. Much credit goes to the editors, who put together some of the best footage of Jackson before his death. From start to finish, Jackson is simply the best at what he did - sing and dance. As frail as he appeared, his dancing mechanics were still as good as any of his younger dancers. For all his fans, this is the best raw footage you will see of "The Gloved One." If this was to be his ultimately swan song of his music career, he certainly gave us one hell of a show that will never be forgotten.
