Fans and newly converted fans alike can't get enough of Michael Jackson. 'This Is It' has earned $101 million thus far, in its first five days since its premiere, and is likely to make much more.

According to a new report by CNN International, a fan in London told a reporter that, "It's Michael Jackson, so we're going to have to get it," talking about the newly released 'This Is It' soundtrack. The fan continued, that he would have to buy "at least two or three more" copies of the new album as Christmas presents for his family who he said  'grew up listening to Michael.'"

A spokesperson for HMV stores in London Gennaro Castaldo, said the success of the soundtrack will be manifested by being "among the top five for the next two months." He continued on the significance of the holidays, "Forty percent of annual sales are in the run up to Christmas. This is a huge release for that period."
