Katy is performing remarkably similar to Britney's HIAM.

^The problem with HIAM was that they waited so long to release the video or even promote the song which didn't help its chart run. I think Katy's song will be handled better

Well done, Carrie! No. 82 on Itunes after 1 hour of release!! :o :o :o
She's gonna pull a Taylor Swift/Lady Gaga and get a #1 in less than 10 hours? lol
How much could this sell in 3 days? 200k? 250k? If they gave her a full week of release, Carrie could've been contender for Hot 100 #1 (possibly 400k?)
Also, Carrie's song doesn't even sound that country. It's got a pop/rock production. CROSSOVER SMASH!!

It irks me that a lot of my favorite stars seem determined to not get a full week that first week of release. I will kill her team if she peaks at #11 on billboard or something when she could have went top 10 otherwise. We will see though. I just prefer when artists get an entire full first week.
Wow my Itunes is showing her at #62. That is fairly impressive!

Ever since BHC, people have called all of Carrie's poppy uptempos crossover smashes and it never happens. It could with this, but if she doesn't support the idea in some way, I doubt it.

Carrie's team is going to end up kicking themselves for releasing this midweek! At the rate it is climbing she could have tried to become the only Idol besides Kelly to get a Hot 100 #1. I don't see it selling enough in 3 days although crazier things have happened. She would need to sell about what Katy Perry did but Katy had an entire week and Carrie will only have 3 days. That would be the biggest shock since I began following the BB numbers.

I don't see it selling enough in 3 days although crazier things have happened. I just can't imagine Underwood outselling what Katy Perry managed in her first 3 days (which is what she would need, if my math is right) so I doubt she gets it done, especially with no AI to count on. A bunch of the Idol winners already have Hot 100 #1 singles including Carrie. ;) I assume you're excluding coronation singles?

Katy is performing remarkably similar to Britney's HIAM. The song is kind of shit and the most generic thing Dr. Luke/Max Martin/et al have put out (which is quite an accomplishment) so I wouldn't be surprised if it had as much longevity as Hold It Against Me.

If Taylor couldn't get to #1 then neither would have Carrie.

Carrie's "Good Girl" is up to #24 on the all-genre chart now, and #1 on country.

Carrie's song is no good for you.
Looking forward to finding better stuff on her album, anyway.

Usher's single isn't doing too crazily out of the gate- currently at No. 42. Based on the pop-bars updates, it looks like it was released Wednesday night/Thursday at midnight? Once it hits pop and rhythmic, it should do better, I guess.

As much potential as BHC or even CC had crossover-wise, Carrie's label never sent these songs for pop/top 40 adds so they were only going to go so far. I don't know why they refuse to give her that pop radio push: it clearly has not hurt T-Swift, Lady Antebellum, The Band Perry etc

Interesting that seven of the top-ten songs on iTunes are single versions of a lead single. Gotye's is a lead single, but it's the album version that's charting. What a competitive top ten. And Adele and Kelly have weathered this "storm" of new singles and continue to hold their own and have been in the top 10 longer than any of the new singles that have come and gone, particularly Adele.

Impressive.
"Cowboy Casanova" was no. 8 at the same point in time (the top song, PITUSA, sold only 182k that week). It eventually reached its peak of no. 2 two days after the release and ended the week at no. 7.

Fucking impressive.
I don't think Carrie's team tries to top BB100 this week. They want GG to debut high this week and jump a couple of spots next week because it will have 7 days of download and airplays next week.

Anyone else just all-around shocked at the current top 10?
I mean, looks at all the artists that are in there that three years ago, we would never thing EVER go top 10 on iTunes. fun., The Wanted, Adele, Gotye.
Then you have artists who aren't exactly big sellers selling like hotcakes. Carrie & Kelly
Then a chance for a two-hit-wonder to redeem himself. B.o.B
The only artists who seem to be normal for the top 10 are Katy, Nicki, and Chris.

Both Carrie and Kelly have singles that have gone over 2 million Before He Cheats is actually over 3 million But they're not usually big, big sellers. WDKY has been in the top ten for quite some time, and looks to be her biggest selling single of her career. Yes, the Breakaway era was released at the start of the digital age, so its sales are lower, but ever since then, Kelly has not been a high seller digitally. With the exception of MLWSWY, none of her other songs went #1 on iTunes since the Breakaway era. BHC is Carrie's exception because it crossed over, but usually Carrie doesn't get this high on iTunes so quickly.
