Joe Jonas has been a musical superstar for nearly two decades now, but his commercial success has largely been tied to his siblings. As one-third of the Jonas Brothers, he's scored global smashes and several bestselling albums. His solo career, however, hasn't fared quite as well, especially in the United Kingdom.
The singer lands his first hits on a number of charts in that country this week with his latest release on his own, Music for People Who Believe in Love. The title earns Jonas his first placement under his own name on several tallies, though, interestingly, it still trails behind his debut solo offering in one important manner.
Music for People Who Believe in Love debuts on three charts across the Atlantic. It opens at No. 15 on both the Official Albums Sales and Official Physical Albums charts. The collection also enters at No. 36 on the Official Album Downloads list. These placements mark a first for Jonas as a soloist on all three rankings. The Jonas Brothers, meanwhile, have collected between two and five appearances on each and every one of them throughout the years.
Despite its lofty placement on a handful of tallies, Music for People Who Believe in Love doesn't reach the Official Albums chart, the all-encompassing ranking of the 100 most consumed full-lengths and EPs in the nation. Jonas's debut solo album, Fastlife, did land on that tally. Released in late 2011, Fastlife spent one frame at No. 99 before disappearing for good. It never managed to appear on any of the other charts where Jonas currently appears.
So far, Music for People Who Believe in Love has produced just one charting hit: "Heart by Heart." The catchy lead single debuts on a pair of tallies this frame in the U.K. It opens at No. 72 on the Official Singles Sales list and No. 69 on the Official Singles Downloads tally.
Jonas is brand new to the Official Singles Sales chart, as "Heart by Heart" earns him his first solo win on the list of the bestselling tunes in the U.K.
He's already placed on the Official Singles Downloads roster multiple times. In fact, "Heart by Heart" marks his fifth solo entry on that tally and his first since 2011. To date, Jonas has managed only one top 40 solo success on that U.K. ranking — a duet with Demi Lovato on "This Is Me," which peaked at No. 31 in 2008.
