asg, showing incredible insight, as always. lol Yes, she must be the most revered and highly regarded "no talent" ever. Yeah, it's the "no talent" that makes her and her music/videos, etc. as revered as they are. Yep, that be it. And who is YOUR favorite act again? :And how highly regarded is she again?

u mad??

[HolidayGuy]

^That's exactly what I would tell anyone who has such a negative attitude toward one of the greatest artists of our time, to deal with the fact that she is as revered as she is (though without the nasty cig), so thanks. :)

[Push The Button]

lol, what the what?

If I could reach Madonna's level with just sleeping with the bigwigs, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Why has no one else tried that? Is Madonna just that good of a lay?

[HolidayGuy]

^Yeah it must be that. When people speak of her cultural significance, her music, her importance- yeah, they're thinking of, her sexual escapades behind closed doors. She's such a ho that she flat out refused to give a record exec oral sex back in the day- slut! (This was before Seymour Stein eventually saw what was to come and signed her).

Back to what this thread is about. Wonder if the Hannah soundtrack will sell more than projected- not that still won't be a disappointing number.

[How Do You Do?]

Shakira's number is looking great. This is a Spanish language album (there are 4 songs in English on the album).

She will clearly sell better in Europe and Latin America. The U.S. hasn't been a great market for Shakira since OF2.

[areyoureadytojump]

MORE SWIFT: With a full week in stores, the Taylor Swift sales estimates now range in the 650-700k area, which would make her album a contender to dethrone Eminem as the year’s biggest seller before 2010 is through. Her last album, Fearless, has sold more than 6 million copies in nearly two years, still moving about 6,500 a week. (10/25p)

[worldwide]

So she released it today? She really wants to maximize that debut.
And how come there are already predictions, are they based on first sales or what? Because it's been only hours since it was released.

[jj99$ - - LeLe]

ya that figure could change substantially +-100k

It's just an "estimate."

HITS has done it before with other big releases.

[Honeymoon]

I think the final number will be around 800k

[Cerbius]

I hope Swift surpasses Eminem.

+1. But I do hope that this doesn't turn into a Swift-driven forum for a couple of months like it happened with Eminem. Still, it will depend mostly on the second single to see if Swift is able to outsell Eminem for the rest of the year (and SuBo).

[Deleted]

It still is an Eminem forum

[chopped89]

^
It damn sure is, lol!
I wish for Taylor all the best and nothing but the best, because she deserves it. But stay away from Eminem, he deserves to get this one!

[slicknickshady]

Looks like Em will get it. According to the 650-700K prediction.

At least, with Taylor releasing it early, nobody can say "The only reason Em beat swift is because of the extra day Recovery got". Now they both got a full week.

[Enigma.]

5 ELTON JOHN & LEON RUSSEL: UNION - DECCA 28,109

Very good!

I think the Wednesday prediction will be more accurate. They released the 650-700k figure still during business day Monday when it was only out for a few hours in a lot of retailers. Plus I'd say the newly reduced Amazon price (to $3.99) and heavy promo will impact.

[slicknickshady]

$3.99 at Amazon?

Yeah, she probably will get it.

Edit:

Finals are in. Em did over 42K.

[musicrocks]

Thanks for letting us know bout just Eminem....lol smh.

VERSUS

[Mark]

Not a bad drop for Katy.

[musicrocks]

Wow, country has been taking over this year, especially the first and last quarters.

[HolidayGuy]

Too bad Sugarland didn't end up on the high end of the projection, but at least it topped 200K (hopefully will with final numbers).

[Choco]

Great sales for the top 10.

Shakira is making the top 10 for the first time since 'Oral Fixation Vol. 2', but with lower sales than 'She Wolf'.

[slicknickshady]

I would have brought it over myself but i had to head out.

Yep, the $3.99 at Amazon is definitely what pushed those predictions up by 150-250k. All from Amazon.
