@ElkeHassell it has come to my attention that you are spreading FALSE information about the Invincible era and the fan campaigns. I was part of the fan campaigns, I went to Sony demos in 2 countries, I was at the Killer Thriller party and I was part of the Push Invincible To Number One campaign.
Fans in 2002 were very very active with the promotion of Invincible and it is through OUR hard efforts that Invincible sold as much as it did.
1. We made sure that when we bought multiple copies of Invincible ie the different colours or different formats that each purchase was a separate sale, to make sure every copy of Invincible we bought was counted for chart placement.
2. I personally had a list of radio stations which I rang regularly to request You Rock My World. Many radio stations told me they did not have the song, Sony did not send it to them. Fans in many countries were doing this and I was not the only one to be told this.
3. I personally regularly went into as many music shops as I could, asking why Invincible was not available to buy, many record shops told me they did not receive shipments of the albums from Sony. Many fans in various countries were told the same.
Fans were the driving force on the streets , we had t shirts, banners, posters everywhere, in various countries.
You obviously know nothing about the fan campaigns, where were you in 2002, did you protest on the streets, were you asking music shops to order more Invincible album???
