I'm kinda indifferent to "To The Heavens." It's nice, but doesn't vibe with the rest of the album. I really wanna hear "Kiss Bang Boom!"

Someone Tweeted saying Fantasia said her favorite American Idol is Carrie Underwood? For real? ... Would have never guessed, would love to see video of this whenever it comes out! Do a Google search for Fantasia on "Watch What Happens Live". You can stream the episode online.

I think they have MANY options on what the next single can be. Basically 85% of the album is single worth I just hope that AT ONE POINT - as hard as it is for her to sing the song, like she said - SIDE EFFECTS OF YOU is released as a single. That song needs to be just HEARD.

Love the album more with every listen. But it's really not 'rock' is it?

Sales look great so far. That YouTube/Vevo studio footage thing. I just get so annoyed when they can't carry across the fonts/logo from album/twitter/youtube etc. I mean the branding of it looks like some Windows 98 mess with any and all random fonts thrown across it. There's no marketing or branding thread running through that and the album project. I know people say it shouldn't or doesn't matter but the devil is in the detail, and it looks sloppy and amateur and like the label doesn't care about the project or isn't in sync with management/publicists etc.

Final HDD: -- 2 FANTASIA RCA 87,435 -- SIDE EFFECTS OF YOU I'm not 100% pleased. This album is just too good to be below 100k

The numbers are good, but considering all the promotion she's doing, I was expecting 5-10k more sold.

I think it's great! Most R&B girls did 69k. I think she will sell well with her next single too.

87k is good for an r&b album without an Urban single. The other girls couldn't cross 70k with top 10 hits.

Yeah kind of annoyed that Buble's prediction went up exponentially at Tasia's went down by a whole bunch. Oh well, this album should have legs. Still a great opening week all things considered.

I wish she could do Idol again, at the finale. I don't love it, but it would be awesome for her to do Get It Right and show the other side of the record.

WOW she's heading for a 2nd week of 37-42k? That's solid as hell! She needs to keep up this promo blitz for at least 3 more weeks leading up to her tour!

I'm very excited about her sales thus far. She should easily go gold and hopefully 750k by the end of the year.

This album is so good, I can't think of anything else from a female R&B artist that I've enjoyed this much in the last year or so. And side note, she is lookin' FOINE. Go 'head, girl.
