There's something about Whitney -- she's still #1 on the Planet Groove Top 20! Mariah's moving up, Dru Hill's moving on out. (submitted by: Rodney D.)

Whitney is number 1 in "Los 40 principales" this week in Spain with "INRBIO-Johnny Vicious remix" And newspapers wrote about WH last Sunday, telling that she was the star in Soul Train and they talk a few about Kelly Price and R Kelly. (submitted by: Charo R.)

"It's Not Right But It's Okay" slips to No. 9 on this weekend's broadcast of the World Chart Show (March 27/28, 1999). Since I missed last week's program I do not know where the song peaked. Two weeks ago, it rose a notch to No. 7. So, by following the movement trend of the track, I would estimate its peak position (that is, if it does not reverse course) to be either No. 6 or No. 7. Also, "When You Believe" creeps slowly down and lands at No. 18. (submitted by: Rob N.)

According to ARIA Chart, In Australia, INRBIO has debuted at an uninspiring #90 on the singles chart. This actually isn't too bad considering no advertising or airplay for the single. It seems that Arista is consentrating on the US and Europe (at least it's sort of working there). Maybe one day it will be Australia's turn. I'm still waiting for a ballard (ILFTB, UYCB of YNSA0 for sucess in Australia. (submitted by: Anton M.)

Heartbreak Hotel is finally getting some attention in mtv asia. It jumps from #13 to #11 only after 3 weeks after its debut. Note that I Still Believe slipped from #1 to #2 and it's been in the charts for 8 weeks. Request the video at mtvasia.com eventhough you're not from asia! (submitted by: Sergio)

Additional Billboard update for the week ending April 3, 1999:
"My Love Is Your Love" dips down 8 notches from No. 49 to No. 57 on the Billboard 200 chart. Perhaps Whitney's appearance on the upcoming Soul Train Awards will spur album sales and drive it back up the chart. (submitted by: Rob N.)

Last Week Heartbreak Hotel was at #2 on the Dance/Club PLay on Billboard. (submitted by: Anon)

According to www.ifop.fr, The album gains still 4 places in France and it's currently at #18 !!!This is a real come back because 2 weeks ago it was in the forties places!!! And the other good news is that the new single HH enter the charts at the 10 position !!! This is due to the big airplay on 2 radio and the channel M6 which plays a lot the clip. French seems also to appreciate the dance version of HH.But I strongly hope that ARISTA will release INRBIO (dance mix ) because it will be a succes in France (submitted by: Bad Boy Bruno)

I just checked Billboard Online, #1 in Billboards singles chart. It is confirmed that HH is #1 on the Dance Charts. (submitted by: Roosevelt T.)

UNBELIVABLE!!!! HH enters the official french TOP 100 Chart at #10!!!! Usually a single enters around #40 then climbs up...not our diva! More than this the album is on its way up :it is ranked #18. Finally, BMG France's strategy pays back : a heavy airplay on radio ( & not only on two radios as i've read here) before releasing the single out... Go on french fans, this one will definetely be #1! (submitted by: Ced M.)

This week's Billboard Charts are as follows:

H/H remains at #2 on the Hot 100 Singles Chart but without the bullet.
H/H slips to #2 on the R&B Chart
MLIYL slips from # 26 to #28 on the R&B Album Chart.

(submitted by: Trevor P.)

The Soundscan(Sales) Charts are as follows: 1) H/H slips from #2 to #3 2) MLIYL slips to below # 50. (submitted by: Trevor P.)

Unconfirmed reports are that H/H inched up from #2 to #1 on the Dance charts. It is also reported that INRBIOK will be release/rereleased to radio shortly. That silgle may therefore begin to climb the Billboard charts soon i.e. when airplay starts to increase. (submitted by: Trevor P.)

Despite INRBIO's slip at number 5 last week Whitney has reached the top of the spanish charts again. She is currently at number 2, and this it happening without any promotion of Ariola BMG here in Spain. I`ve seen an advertising of the single in the german music channel Diva TV. What would happen if Ariola BMG decided to do something for Whitney?. It will be a miracle and of course THE BOMB!!!!!!! (submitted by: Elana)

In the UK Top 40 Radio 1, Whitney has dropped just one place to number 7 this week, in the official UK sales top 75, with INRBIOK!! This single has done unbelievably well, it has seen a number of new entries jump in front of it, but all have now dropped away!! This week was especially tough with a lot of good new entries!! (submitted by: Craig S.)

In the UK charts MLIYL drops 8 places to #13 this week in the album chart, it's still selling well though and is at its 3rd highest ever position. INRBIO drops only one place to #7 on the singles chart in its 4th week. On the R&B chart, INRBIO remains at #1 and Heartbreak Hotel (on import sales only)dips 4 to #29. On the dance albums (which don't actually mean anything) MLIYL falls from #2 to #8. When You Believe re- enters the UK Top 75 singles at #68 this week too! (submitted by: Chris W.)

According to Dot Music, Whitney's performances on the UK Charts this week are as follows:

* Top 75 Singles: INRBIOK slips from #6 to #7
R&B Singles: INRBIOK remains at #1
Top 20 Singles for 1999: INRBIOK inches up from #7 to #6
Top 75 Albums: MLIYL falls from #5 to # 13
Top Dance albums: MLIYL moves downward from #2 to # 8

* Note: There were two (2) top 5 debuts on the Top 75 Singles Charts (submitted by: Trevor P.)

It appears Whitney is set to earn the triple crown next week, as "Heartbreak Hotel" moves up from No. 3 to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot Dance Music / Club Play chart for the week ending March 27, 1999. If the single could ascend to the summit of this chart and the Billboard Hot 100, as well as spend an eighth big week at No. 1 on the Hot R&B Singles & Tracks list, then she will simultaneously top 3 major charts. [and Arista will probably make a press release to gloat about it]. Incidentally, by spending 7 weeks at the top of the R&B chart, "Heartbreak Hotel" is Whitney's third-longest running No. 1 single. "I Will Always Love You" spent 11 weeks at the pinnacle in 1993, while "Exhale (Shoop Shoop)" had an eight-week reign in 1996. (submitted by: Rob N.)

Just as an aside, "Exhale" (along with Monica's double-sided single, "Before You Walk Out Of My Life" / "Like This And Like That") kept Mariah and Boyz II Men's "One Sweet Day" from reaching No. 1 on the Hot R&B Singles (as the chart was still called in 1996), keeping it at No. 2 for several weeks (if I recall correctly, it was 9 weeks). Now, with "Heartbreak Hotel" at No. 1, Mariah's double-sided "I Still Believe" / "Pure Imagination" is in the top ten. However, this week, the single slips from No. 3 to No. 4, as Busta Rhymes' (featuring Janet) "What's It Gonna Be?!" blasts into the top ten at No. 2 and Faith's (featuring Puff Daddy) "All Night Long" rises from No. 5 to No. 3, giving Ms. Evans two songs in the top three. (submitted by: Rob N.)

Whitney's INRBIO--falls one spot to no.6 t UK chart, her album up 5 places to no. 5. her dance album rises 1 to no. 2, in r and b INRBIO still no. 1, HH up 6 notches to #25. (submitted by: John L.)

According to 40 principales IN SPAIN: the video for INRBIO is Nº4, for two weeks. And the are watching the video continually, talking about her 8 years without new record. (submitted by: alberto)

MTV UK have a UK R'n'B chart and as of 17/3/99, Whtiney has spemnt two weeks at Number 1 with INRBIOK!! (submitted by: Craig S.)

Whitney continues to bullet towards the pole position. Hopefully she should take over from Cher by next week. This week's preview of the Billboard charts are as follows:

H/H remains at #1 on the R&B singles charts for yet another week.
H/H remains at #2 , with a bullet, on the Hot 100 singles charts. Sales increased to over 127,000 this week.
The Album moves from #42 to #49 on the Top 200 Album Charts.
The album moves from #23 to # 26 on the R&B charts

Simply go to www.worldcharts.com to vote and let's move Whitney up! (An incentive is that Mariah's #1's is at #2 on the albums chart, so get voting for Whitney!). (submitted by: K. Lempke)

Whitney made an impressive overall showing on the UK Charts this week. The details are as follows:

Top R&B Singles: INRBIOK #1
Top 75 singles: INRBIOK #6
Top Dance singles: INRBIOK #7
Top Dance Albums: MLIYL #2
Top 75 Albums: MLIYL #5
Top 20 Singles for 1999: INRBIOK # 7

Analysis:
Item 1: INRBIOK spends its third week at #1 on the R&B Charts
Item 2: Although INRBIOK slips from #5 to #6 on the Pop Singles Chart, it could still rise on that chart if no high debuts happen next week.
Item 5: What can I say! After more than 17 weeks on the charts the Album seems to be finally targetting the pole position.
Item 6: This means that MLIYL is the 7th highest seelling single so far, this year, in the UK eventhough it has been released only 3 weeks ago. (submitted by: Trevor P.)

Briliant news!!Last week, WH's album was at #10, this week, it's #5! INRBIO is only down 1 spot to #65 in the Top 75, bit it stays ahead of big names who all entered the chart at the same time (Cher, George Michael, Blur). (submitted by: Craig S.)

Whitney & friends check in at No. 3, up 1 notch from last week, with "Heartbreak Hotel" on the Billboard Hot Dance Music / Club Play chart for the week ending March 20, 1999. If the single makes it to No. 1, it would be 2-for-2 for tracks from the album. (submitted by: Rob N.)

In its 19th week on the Billboard Hot 100 (for the week ending March 20, 1999), "When You Believe" slips 7 notches from No. 43 to No. 50 . Judging from its weekly slide, it will exit the top 50 next week. If it does not re-enter the top 50 after 20 weeks, it will be removed from the Hot 100 and be shifted to "recurrent" status. (submitted by: Rob N.)

Oh No! "My Love Is Your Love" is not available on the World's Top 30 Album chart this week!!! (submitted by: Seng Soon Y.)

MLIYL has shot up from #10 to #5 on the UK album charts taking it to a new peak position! Before this week the album had sold 130,000 here and after this week it must be on at least 160,000. (submitted by: Chris W.)

According to my source H/H could capture the top spot on the Billboard Top 100 Singles Chart within a couple of weeks. This projection is supported by the following details on the charts:

H/H inches up from #3 to #2, with a bullet, on the Billboard Top 100 Singles Charts
H/H remains at the top of the R&B Singles Chart
MLIYL slips from #41 to #42 on the Top 200 Album Charts.
MLIYL Slips from #21 to #23 on the R&B Album Charts

Guess we'll have to wait on the next released single to pull the album Upwards. (submitted by: Trevor P.)

Further to the news about Whitney in the UKcharts according to UK Top 40 on Radio 1: I can also tell you that INRBIOK is Whitney's fastest selling single, in the first two weeks of release, in the UK, since IWALY in 1992. Also it has now sold over 250,000 copies!! Not bad!! (submitted by: Craig S.)

99/03/09

Whitney's doing well in Austria! Although Austria is a heavy ground for Whitney, her new album has jumped up the charts from #36 to #13 this week. This is likely due to her fabulous appearence at "Wetten Dass" although INRBIOK has not shown up in the charts yet. And more: WYB is defending its position in the Austrian Top 10 for many weeks now and is still rising. In Switzerland it's occupying #2 for some three weeks now, and HH peaked at #4 in Slovenia some weeks ago. (submitted by: Gary)

According to www.ifop.fr, the performance of whitney in France made the album jump to place 31 this week. Last week it was # 46. The single HH has not entered the charts because of his low availibility, whereas "I still believe" is #58! (submitted by: Bad Boy Bruno)

Although INRBIOK slipped from #3 To #5 on the Top 75 Singles charts overall her chart performances were good. The other chart positions are as follows:

INRBIOK holds steady at #1 on the R&B Charts for a second week.
On the Dance Album Charts MLIYL inches Up one slot to #3
MLIYL leaps from #22 to # 10 on the Top 75 Album charts.
