Hi to all True BSB Fans. I found this article in launch.com Enjoy!! Backstreet Boys Just Won't Back Down
(8/25/99, 1 p.m. PDT) - No big surprise this week: The Backstreet Boys remain on top of the SoundScan charts, for sales of approximately 242,555 copies. There's plenty of interesting action throughout the rest of the top 10, however.
Mary J. Blige's Mary makes the most impressive debut this week, coming in at No. 2 for sales of approximately 239,186. Also bowing in the top 10 is rapper Mobb Deep, whose Murda Muzik enters at an almost equally impressive No. 3. These two entries subsequently manage to knock former second-placers Limp Bizkit down to No. 4 for the week, and former third slot-holder Britney Spears to No. 5.
Elsewhere in the top 10, the various-artist compilation Now That's What I Call Music Vol. 2 falls one place to No. 6, and Ricky Martin's self-titled English-language debut takes a dive from No. 4 to No. 7. The Runaway Bride soundtrack and Kid Rock's Devil Without A Cause both fall two places, to No. 8 and No. 9, respectively. Santana's Supernatural is the only steady holder in the top 10 besides Backstreet, clinging firmly to the No. 10 spot.
Other notable debuts this week include the In Too Deep soundtrack at No. 28, the Source Music Awards 1999 disc at No. 53, the Moody Blues' Strange Times at No. 93, and John Mellencamp's Rough Harvest at No. 99.
