Pre-orders for Blown Away started today, and the sales have sent it to #2 on Country and has climbed its way to #14 on the all-genre chart. Great cover art! Carrie is lookin fine.

Could "Boyfriend" debut over 1,000,000? That lead is just... DAY-YUM! :o
1 Justin Bieber - Boyfriend 1.0000 2 Fun. - We Are Young (feat. Janelle Monáe) 0.3519
Mind you, "We Are Young" still has it's big lead against "Somebody That I Used to Know," which still has it's good sized lead over "Wild Ones":
1 Justin Bieber - Boyfriend 1.0000 2 Fun. - We Are Young (feat. Janelle Monáe) 0.3519 3 Gotye - Somebody That I Used to Know (feat. Kimbra) 0.2256 4 Flo Rida - Wild Ones (feat. Sia) 0.1901

I don't like the song, but I've had plenty of songs I don't like hit #1. The fact is it would be far more interesting to see this hit #1, thus, I am rooting for it.
Plus, I bet the reactions that many people will have to WAY being dethroned will be hillarious.

However, this will break the second-longest streak in Hot 100 history for consecutive weeks where I like the #1 song. (Not that Billboard officially recognizes that record, or anything...)

So if Bieber gets a #1 song, he gets a #1 song. I don't like him either, but I'm not going to commit hari kari if it happens. It does bug me a little bit that he (or anybody) could end up screwing up WAY's consecutive weeks at #1, but oh well, it's not like I'm losing sleep over it.
And besides, WAY will kick him out and take #1 back again the following week. ;)

I am thinking Justin will likely be under 500k, and probably closer to 400k.

JB will get #1 or #2. Guaranteed. Unfortunately, I think he has himself a straight shot at #1. (I say unfortunately NOT because I have any opposition to the guy. But this song is nothing compared to We Are Young, and shouldn't get to break its streak. :/) Of course, we have to see if he keeps that lead for the next few days. If the lead is comparable by Friday, then I would be convinced. Side note - I think he sounds kind of creepy haha

Whoa; I guess that $0.69 discount is working well for Karmin--#16 right now. Good for them.
What in the world is Journey doing at #83 with "Faithfully?" ???

Go back about 60 pages of this thread and you'll see a lot of the same comments about Bieber from when he released Mistletoe.
Looks like pages 43-44

Mistletoe's lead was never quite this big. Boyfriend is outselling a song that was already killing every song in the top 10.

16. Trey Songz - Heart Attack
Is this a pop release? I haven't heard it but I thought it was a R&B track but with it so high, idk.

Billboard already has an article about Boyfriend's potential sales so we should never count this one out despite his history of frontloadness

16. Trey Songz - Heart Attack Is this a pop release? I haven't heard it but I thought it was a R&B track but with it so high, idk. I'm really surprised at how fast this is taking off; r&b artists don't usually do as well on iTunes as other genres and I didn't have the impression that Trey was pushing this to CHR (midtempo r&b song). I also didn't think non-urban people or media were checking for him like that. Maybe Trey has a bigger following than I thought? That said, though it is an r&b song, it's a Benny Blanco production and the beat is quite pop friendly. I wouldn't be surprised if it did cross over, just caught off guard that it is so high already.

^If you say so. "We Are Young" up to 0.5854 behind Bieber's single (the low was 0.3519).
