60K is great! :) Perhaps that's all her singles combined, though? Either way, it's great.

SMASH!! That should put it very high on the hot 100 right?? Normally, those sales plus LN's airplay would probably get you into the top 20. But with the high-selling tracks from David Cook, LN will probably have to settle for top 25.

^^^Yea, Cook is cooking right now, but I'm thinking it won't last very long. Of course, I could be wrong. I still think LN will do alright on the pop charts.

Yeah David Cook's singles will fall off in a couple weeks once the bulk of idol fans buy the songs... When he releases his actual album-- I think he will do well, like Daughtry--- as long as he can get airplay on the radio like daughtry did--- and puts out hit songs.
I cannot wait for LN to start getting some pop airplay. I requested it on sirius radio's pop stations to try to get it some exposure. They played BHC when it was hot, and they play taylor now- so hopefully LN will get some love too.,

AOL has a new article up about Carrie. A 500 picture segment of her is on the same page. There is also a poll on that page, along with video links. It reads like the same article (or interview) Dudley quoted from earlier (on Page 46 of this thread). news.aol.com/entertainment/music/music-news-story/ar/_a/underwoods-single-and-loving-it/20080527105009990001?icid=100214839x1202869413x1200118346Quote: Underwood's Single and Loving ItAOL Posted: 2008-05-27 12:20:19 Filed Under: Celebrity News, Celebrity Couples, Music News (May 27) -- Guys, you may want to put those love letters to Carrie Underwood in a safe place for about a year. The 'Idol' champ turned country star tells Fox News' Pop Tarts column that while a boyfriend sounds great, she just wants to "be on the road and focus just on" herself. <rest of article can be read in the posted link>

Thanks, Vinman! I got a peek of shorts under the Idol outfit and she confirms it. The mention of her Dad reminded me of The Road to the Opry where she and her mom were laughing about how her Dad looks when she's singing-- like he smelled something bad. LOL!

HDD now Final - we didn't get the kind of boost that was hoped for, but it's nice. I think we can expect a residual sales boost from the Idol performance this week too. LW TW 28 16 CARRIE UNDERWOOD ARISTA/RMG 24,773 +60% CARNIVAL RIDE SH was off the Chart Taylor barely got a boost, and Rascal Flatts and others didn't really gain. The ACMs don't seem to have helped much at all this year. Carrie's boost was probably more from AI and, in the end, was a huge percentage gain.

MOD NOTEBy way of further reminder, please do NOT post consecutively in this thread. If you have something new to say and no one has posted since your last post, simply edit your most recent post with your additional thoughts, or wait until someone else has posted to post again. I've said this before but several of you seem to have forgotten. Two questions: 1. When you edit a post, does it bump the thread back up? If not, how will people even know new comments have been added? 2. What if you are replying to people? It would be annoying to have to hit reply and then copy that info, and then go back to your post to edit it and paste in the replied info.

I hope that LN does not have to stand in line for Rascal Flatts, Lady Antebellum and Kenny Chesney to all go #1 first. It is looking that way, from the progression of the complete Chart for the last 3 weeks. Kenny stays behind LN on the cutoff Chart most of the time. The situation will become more clear next week. So, we shall soon know for sure. Right now it seems apparent there will be no AAG like quick romp up the Chart to #1.

^^^LN hasn't been on the charts very long, so the position it's in right now, is actually pretty good.

I think it's better if LN goes up more slowly and peaks later in the year, especially if JAD or IKYW is the next single. Better to have the sad ballad out later cuz they're not very summery.

^ Thanks Vinman. The Label and 19 are giving Carrie A+ support now. This is sooo nice!
If they keep it up, I may even stop calling them Team Carrie Cheerleaders.

I think Carrie will hit 3 mil with CR. It will take some time, but I think it will happen.

I would love it if by the time album 3 is ready, CR and SH combine to scan 10 million in the US. 1.45 million to go...

If LN is successful in the pop charts, CR will reach the 3X platinum level faster than everyone thinks.

^ agree.....If CR could sustain 20,000 per week or more-- once LN kicks into gear on the pop charts-- then it could feasibly be certified 3x platinum by the fall, when store start to stock up for the holidays.
