Was this hard back so popular during her first album era? As I recall it, she was a cut-rate Amy Winehouse, but clearly - after reviewing the sales, awards & hoopla - I was mistaken. The 21 buzz is so sonorous, I may have to give Nell Carter a second listen, but in the meantime, this remix of "Rollin' On The River" stays in my head. #xx That's a hot remix. "hard back" just sounds all sorts of wrong.

21 sold 259,000 copies this week WW. Total copies WW stand at 994,000! So close to 1mil! And in just 4 weeks during a low time of the year for albums! Next week sees the huge boost of the US release, while also maintaining UK sales. It could do around 500k+ next week! 19 Sells 63,000 WW. For sales of 191k in the last 4 weeks. Rolling in the Deep is also #6 on the UWC singles list with 248,000 points. With total points now at 1,148,000! Next week it will see another point increase due to high sales in the US. Someone Like You debuts at #31 with 105,000 points. ^^ This week: 21 - 625,000 (1,619,000 :o) 19 - 72,000 (263,000 in five weeks) RITD - 265,000 (1,413,000) SLY - 148,000 (253,000)

That's staggering.

RITD's figures for this week - #5 with 36,012 sold total sales now at 378,324. Next week it will cross the 400k mark and go gold. The same with "Someone Like You". Amazing at how consistant RITD has been! Also, it's a high possiblity it could hit 3million by the end of the year. I see her getting a HUGE boosts xmas & I can see her getting a boost mother's day week (the week 3rd of April is in). Ahh Adele, she's going to to beat out Gaga/Brit/Beyonce and others I think this year to claim the title of biggest selling album WW Especially if its #s in the UK keep up. :)

At the beginning of January, was anyone predicting a FIRST-week of 150k+? This is really amazing.
Is SLY the official 2nd single?

Her second week would have even been considered a successful first week for her based on her last album sales. I am just loving the overwhelmingly positive response Adele is receiving. Her success this era seems so contrary to every trend right now that it makes it even that more special.
