All copies of the HIStory album sold at HMV Ireland

It seems that Michael Jackson is more popular than ever among Irish fans, as none of his HIStory albums that were put on sale at HMV stores for the month of March (Esfand, Farvardin) were left. Gary Roche, manager of the Grafton Street branch of this store, said, "The response was outstanding. Sales of the Michael Jackson greatest hits album were very high after we put it on discount as part of our sales strategy—so high that we constantly request more stock. This proves that his music is still as popular as ever."
