COMPARISONS: Jennifer Lopez' last release "J.Lo" debuted at No. 1 nearly a year ago to 272,000 units en route to over 3 million sold to date. "J to tha L-O!" out-did the first-week sales of Limp Bizkit's remix album "Old New Songs," which bowed to 104,000 units last December. Hits collection "Ultimate Manilow" marks the first time Barry Manilow's been in the top 5 since 1978's "Even Now." His last album of new material, "At the Mayflower" started at No. 90 last November and spent just three weeks on the chart. Concert album "Lover's Live" posted a respectable showing for Sade, but was a far cry from 370,000 first-week sales of "Lover's Rock."
OTHER DEBUTS: Complilation album "Totally Country" boot-scooted in the No. 12 spot on sales of 65,000. The first full week of Mary J. Blige's 2002 edition of "No More Drama" moved 55,000 units. Last week's 61,000 tally included both old and new versions, which combined have sold around 1,855,000 copies. The annual "Grammy Nominees" compilation came in at No. 32 with 34,000 copies sold.
MOVERS: Two top-selling acts got shot in the arm thanks to Super Bowl appearances. Half-time performer U2 saw "All That You Can't Leave Behind" jump from No. 66 last week to No. 25, riding a 142% sales increase to 46,000 units. Pepsi pitchwoman Britney Spears, who debuted a new commercial, saw her latest album get a 40% bump-up, going from No. 25 to No. 17.
Platinum = Certification of one million units shipped.
