Adele and Mumford & Sons Go Go Go!!!! What is sustaining Mumford & Sons sales? they don't even have a top40 hit. Word of mouth and quality do wonders for Alternative albums. It's the equivalent of smash follow-up singles at Top 40 radio for Pop albums. |

I hope Pink eventually sells 1m. It's a shame there are no more singles. I think it's close to outselling Try This, isn't it?

Try This has scanned in the neighborhood of 720,000, so GH should pass it with ease.

^Yes- but, his album still has sold just 1/.3 of what Swift's album has sold.Nonetheless, his album is showing nice legs, thanks to his big country hit. I wasn't referring to what the article said about Taylor, I'm just happy his album is doing so well. |
