This better be a wake up call to American Idol to always release relevant songs for the winners.

You are right, if my memory doesn't fail i think Phillip said this won't be the kind of music he wanted to release, so it was really lucky. And the olympics really save the song. The sales were good but airplay was dismal back then. In my opinion Idol winners must release their own material when they are composers as coronation songs, and chose the song if they are not. The coronation song could help a lot in their future releases and now the cheesy old coronation songs just don't work

More than anything, it's probably just because people really like the song.

does anyone else think that HOME could eventually pass WDKY (stronger) to become the best selling idol single?

^I think it has a good chance. It should sell at least 200K during Christmas week. I expect it will be between 3.1 and 3.2 million by the end of the year.

As far as i know Carly never was in American Idol. The song by a reality contest show with bigger sales is Bleeding love by Leona Lewis. Carly compete in the same format but different country.
I think Home has a slight possibility of being top 10 this week

I think Home has a slight possibility of being top 10 this week Carly was a contestant on Canadian Idol years back though, which I believe is what reidster meant.

I think Home has a slight possibility of being top 10 this week As someone else posted, the person meant all Idols from all countries Which includes CRJ. But then you decide to include all reality shows, including X Factor UK. "Bleeding Love" has already been outsold by "Call Me Maybe" so I'm not sure what your point is...

"Gone, Gone, Gone" needs to be the second single.

Carly has the best selling single of any previous Idol contestant, with "Call Me Maybe". WDKY(Stronger) is the best selling single by a former American Idol.
