Since his departure from Mötley Crüe, Mick Mars has undeniably become one of the most talked-about figures in the rock world. It seems like every week brings new developments surrounding him, and the anticipation for his solo album was palpable. However, the album’s initial success has exceeded all expectations.

Today, Mick proudly announced on Instagram that his album, “The Other Side of Mars,” has debuted at number one on the iTunes Charts. Coming in at a close second is another familiar name in the rock scene: Ace Frehley.

In a heartfelt message, Mick expressed his gratitude to his fans: “Woke up to finding myself at the top of the iTunes Charts and thought I must still be dreaming. I don’t know what to say. Thank you so much for your support. And thanks to iTunes and Spotify for the feature as well!”

This achievement marks a significant moment for rock music, with two rock icons reigning supreme atop the global charts, ahead of major pop and rap acts like Kanye West and Twice.

Notably, among those who liked Mick Mars’ Instagram post was Tommy Lee. Could this be a hint of reconciliation between the former bandmates?

Following his departure from Mötley Crüe, the question on everyone’s minds is what Mick will do next. While health concerns may limit his physical activities, Mick remains dedicated to making music and continues to make substantial contributions in the studio.

In a recent statement, Mick hinted that he would be open to rejoining Mötley Crüe for album recordings if the opportunity arose. Additionally, he expressed his desire to pen his autobiography, suggesting that he would embark on this endeavor when he feels the time is right, perhaps even on his deathbed.
