When was this album out on monday or tuesdey? Monday. So it had a full seven days of sales in this chart week. Does that mean it'll have a larger-than-average second-week drop?

how they count sales? tuesdey to monday or mondey to sundey? Mon-Sun. However, albums are traditionally always released on Tuesdays.

Weezy would be Lil Wayne?
If so, and these numbers hold. Yes it did

In the past, other albums were released on Monday to take advantage of the extra official day (especially Thanksgiving week in recent times). A strategy is not a "cheat." Same goes for dirt-cheap prices for singles tears ago- it's record label strategy to help attain higher chart placement/sales.

Why is this bombing worldwide? Country music isn't popular overseas. The album debuted at #6 in the UK which is pretty fantastic.

Lol, please. She's not sold as a country artist. Agreed. Worldwide, her albums are remixed and she's not considered a 'Country' artist at all overseas. So... I guess it's just due to promo. She hasn't done a lot of overseas promo. That, and she's generally not as famous worldwide as she is in America. That said, it's far from 'bombing' worldwide.

From my understanding, "Back To December", "The Story Of Us", and "Mine" were the only songs to have remixes on international version of Speak Now. Also, I couldn't say exactly how she's promoted/viewed outside the U.S. (in terms of whether or not she's marketed as a pop or country artist), but I've seen several articles from the U.K. and other areas that labeled her an American country singer.

"Mine" was pushed quite heavily by the main BBC national pop radio station, but it went nowhere peaking at #30. It wasn't a great lead single.

It wasn't a great lead single. Agreed. There were better choices available for the first international single.
