I'd love to know the Soundscan numbers for all Mariah's albums, cause she's been very overcertified hasn't she?
You need to take club sales into consideration as well.

After exactly half a year, BEP relinquishes the top spot.
http://www.billboard.com/#/news/jay-sean-sends-peas-packing-from-hot-100-1004020213.story
Jay Sean will put an end to the Black Eyed Peas' record reign atop the Billboard Hot 100 as his "Down" will move into the top slot on the chart to be released tomorrow morning. The Peas had held steady at No. 1 for 26 straight weeks with "Boom Boom Pow" (12 weeks) and "I Gotta Feeling (14 weeks), smashing the prior mark of 19 straight No. 1 frames earned by Usher with a pair of his tracks in 2004.
For Sean, his debut single becomes his first Hot 100 No. 1. The track also climbs to the top of Hot 100 Airplay with a total of 115 million listener impressions and rises 5-3 on Hot Digital Songs, where is has moved 1.5 million downloads since its release.
How sad.
IGF should've been given another 1 more week to break tie with WBT.

...Streisand surprised many with how well her album sold in non-traditional ways -- such as through Starbucks, QVC and via her Web site -- and that likely threw a wrench into forecasting sales.
Mimi should learn from Barbra i.e. sell her next album through KFC.
-
Let's hope that Paramore are No.2 and Mimi is at No.3 (or even lower...muah ha ha).
-
Billboard has just announced that Barbra Streisand's album Love is the Answer debuts at #1 on the US charts. More information to follow.
from: The Official Barbra Streisand Site
Can't find any info on Billboard. How sure are they?
-
Lambs are now hoping for:
1. SS figure will be different so that another Prince VS Keith Urban miracles to happen
2. Turn their table around and rooting for Babs, whom they had been dissing before the hits results, to get her 9th #1 (if SS is different) so that Madge can't tie with her if her next album goes #1
3. Mimi will hold up steadily in order to have another shot at #1 on its 2nd week (They need to move on from TEOM seriously)
4. The remix MOAIA album will have a chance to get a #1
-
um..is there ANY chance here Hits can be WAY off? I reeeally hope BBoard reports these EXACT figures lol!!
The recent case was Prince VS Keith Urban:

In fact Mimi has predicted her fate in the begining.

But then again, the difference between Paramore & Barbra is only 7,884, Barbra may top the chart IF her SS is higher than Paramore, whereas It is unlikely for Mimi to top the chart since the difference between Paramore & Mimi is 11,805.
Another scenario could be Mimi's SS is higher than Barbra since the difference between Mimi & Barbra is even smaller (3,921) as compare to Barbra & Paramore, Mimi may steal #2 from Barbra.

The difference between Hits & Soundscan figures are around 10K-15K.
To secure a Billboard #1, Paramore must sell 20K or more.
I betting on Paramore will top both Hits & Billboard Chart.
-
at lapdancer101 from pulse.I think he's gonna have a breakdown if Mimi failed to top the chart.

If you cover the faces, it's hard for anyone to identify who's who.
Madge's 52yo body is AMAZING!
-
Good News: The CD's are Selling Out! & Mariah's Are Untouched!
Or it could be WB didn't ship enough copies for the store whereas IDJ overshipped Mimi's album.
-
Has this song even been officially considered as the 2nd single? If not, why one would even expect the radio to play it?

YOUR WEAKEND TOP 10 (OR 15) CHART PREVIEW: A shitload of debuts (figuratively speaking) will infiltrate the top of next week’s chart. Outside the holiday months of November and December, next week could mark the first time in nearly two years when each of the Top 15 sells more than 40k. Next Tuesday they may well be popping the champagne corks at Hollywood, in Disney’s first hat trick since they sold the Mighty Ducks. Congrats to topper Peter Paterno… Scratch that—we just learned Peter’s no longer at the label… Columbia could hit the trifecta as well, if you throw in a certain blonde bombshell from Area Code 615. Anyhoo, here’s what we’re looking at—and while we’re at it, here’s looking at you, kid....
* Paramore (Fueled by Ramen) 185-195k
* Mariah Carey (Island/IDJ) 160-170k
* Barbra Streisand (Columbia) 150-160k
* Breaking Benjamin (Hollywood) 140-150k
* Alice in Chains (Virgin) 130-140k
Jay-Z (Roc Nation) 80-85k
* Miranda Lambert (Columbia Nashville) 70-75k
* Madonna (Warner Bros.) 65-70k
Pearl Jam (Monkeywrench) 65-70k
* AFI (Interscope) 55-60k
* Selena Gomez & the Scene (Hollywood) 55-60k
Whitney Houston (Arista/RMG) 45-50k
Miley Cyrus (Hollywood) 40-45k
* Dethklok (Williams Street) 40-45k
Harry Connick Jr. (Columbia) 40-45k
* Denotes debut
You may now return to debating a possible re-fi with your spouse. (10/2a)
Go Paramore!!!

Like me, they will change their minds. It is far too tempting. I saw the official track list and I just couldn't resist. All those great songs on 2 CDs? Irresistable.
Most of the casual/lapsed fans I have talked to intend on buying this. These people haven't bought a Madonna CD since ROL if even then. But most didn't even know about it until I told them.
Although I have started the Not-Buying-DVD thread (Mainly to spoof Kramm), but I'd placed an order for all 3 format (1CD/2CD/2DVD) from Japan as well as Taiwan.
Yes, I couldn't resist either.
-
What do you mean fans who "refused" to buy the CD?
More like fans who... have all the songs already!
Are you aware that all the songs are remastered? There are some hiccups but some fans have proved it was blown out of proportion.
-
It is Madonna's fault she is only going to sell 60-70k. Not much promo equals not much sales.
What about those fans who refused to buy her GH?
And now everyone wonder why she did so bad.

OMG! Everybody buy Paramore & Barbra!
-
That's true, you can't compare it to a new studio album- GH albums usually sell less in their debut weeks- there are exeptions to that, but it's accurate as a general rule.
I believe many of us have no problem with Madge not topping the chart since it's the GH.
But the most annoying part is Pariah Scarey purposely pushed her release date same as Madge. Pariah knows she'll win and benefits from such situation and to declare she's the best selling & most successful.

Ryan is about to play clips of Michael Jackson talking about how Madonna was jealous of him... "Madonna who is coming up later..." yay!
Why Madge even bother to show up on his show?

I hope it will sell lesser than Discipline.
Teach L.A.Reid a lesson for dropping Janet.
