Chart positions

As this compilation is a budget release, the album was ineligible to chart in the US, however in Switzerland the compilation entered at number ninety-nine, charting for a week. It was the only country in which this happened, probably due to its strong sales there. Later, the compilation charted within the Top 100 on the Dutch, Belgian and Italian charts.

Belgian Albums (Ultratop Flanders)^[1]	81
Dutch Albums (MegaCharts)^[2]	63
