LL OF HER: Count Katy Perry as yet another beneficiary from Grammy sales spikes, as the performance of her brand-new “Part of Me,” which was made available instantly on iTunes, charted just 12 hours later at #7 on the Songs tally, with 97,884, climbing to #2 this morning. The song is apparently a rebuke to her ex, Russell Brand, and was introduced via a fiery performance on Sunday night's award ceremony, where Perry was up for a pair of phonographs for "Firework" (including Record of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance). Kudos to Direct Management’s Martin Kirkup for a successful introduction of the new tune. (2/14p)

Where is HITS getting the sales figure for Perry's single?
Did iTunes remove one of the I'm Your Baby Tonight albums? it was listed twice. There was absolutely no difference in the two listings, so not sure why it had two in the first place.

One has the American version of "I'm Your Baby Tonight" and the other has the poppier European version on there.

Yeah, I'm amazed how slowly the Glee songs are moving. I was expecting at least I Will Always Love You to go flying.

I think it's because the top songs are selling so much that it's harder for them to break into the top 20 this week.

Glee was able to put together a Whitney song into the new episode this fast? I always figured it was filmed months in advance. But then again I'm not familiar with the format of the show.

It is filmed well in advance. It was purely just a coincidence that they had a Whitney song in the same week she passed away.

Rumor Has It is #39 right now on iTunes. What's the highest sales a song has achieved in the digital era without ever being released to radio? I'm assuming it will be released but for now, anyone know?

^I assume you mean excluding the various Taylor Swift insta-hits (so, any album cut based on a new release).
I'm guessing Jeff Buckley's "Hallelujah"? #1 digital, based on people who liked an AI performance of it.

Taylor insta-hits. lol Anyone have a Top 5 or Top 10? Something like 'Don't Stop Believing' wouldn't count, since it was released to radio back in the day.

I'm assuming it will be released but for now, anyone know? If you're asking for total sales, the answer is Eminem's "'Til I Collapse," which has sold 1.6 million without ever having a single release. As far as sales in a single week, it would have to be "Today was a Fairytale" by Taylor Swift, which charted at #2 on the Hot 100 (and #1 digital) but was never a radio single.

^I was thinking you were asking about highest single week. Till I Collapse sounds about right for grand total though.

I think it will go also go #1.
If that's the final single, then the lead from her next album should which should also go #1 (probably debut there), she'd have five straight #1 hits.

I'll be shocked if Rumour Has It doesn't go to #1. So before it's released, anyone have it's current sales totals?

RHI has sold 759k as of Feb 5.
It was also no. 1 on AAA radio, although I'm not sure if it went for adds there.

Damn, so "Rumour Has It" could quite possibly cross the 1 million mark before it even gets serviced to radio. :o

As you read digital songs charts and the Hot 100, this would be a difficult statistic to verify and keep track of since --- all types of "singles" are blended together in the charts

I thought I read in one of Paul Grien's columns that "Over the Rainbow" by Israel Longhawaiianname had passed three million copies last year. Was that serviced to radio?

True, but for Taylor, TWAF actually ended up taking off on radio anyways. IIRC, it's pop peak was in the lower teens and country peak was the mid to upper 40s. It did decently on HAC too, I think. And if you want to treat TWAF as a song never sent to radio, then wouldn't Miley's "See You Again" be considered the top selling song not sent to radio?
