"Second week at number 1! Wow. Had a great second week with the new record in the UK charts. Staying on strong at number 1. Its really cool to hear its going down so well. Thanks again for the fan support and understanding."
In the USA, Muse has its best week ever on The Billboard 200 as "Black Holes and Revelations" (Warner Bros.) debuts at No. 9 with 48,000 copies. Only one other of the group's records has even spent time on the chart: 2004's "Absolution" bowed at No. 107, although it reached No. 1 on the Heatseekers tally.
