HITS 12-6 Michael Buble

[chris89]

Buble! Wow...

[Deleted]

The % on the HDD Monday projections are not a good indicator as to what the final number will be, never has been


There is no reason to think it won't land in the 250K range like they were saying all along

[HolidayGuy]

Maybe Buble's album will exceed this week's projections- after all, the album fell short of projections last week. If it does, it probably wouldn't be a HUGE difference.

[Deleted]

yeah - in other words he is not targeted for 700,000 or whatever 202,396/.3717 is ;)

Oooo, it'll be a nice week next week.

[areyoureadytojump]

^Nothing is going to debut big.

I expect ~200k for T-Pain.

That's big..for him. If he were to open 200k, that be his biggest week right? Epiphany was 181k or was that Ri?

[rosemoor]

any prediction for Robin Thicke? his new album is quite good. I like it much more than his last one.

I'm hoping 80k-100k.

[areyoureadytojump]

The New Release Schedule says:

Black Keys 156k
T-Pain 150k
Amy Winehouse 140k
Glee 120k
Robin Thicke 91k
Korn 66k
Chevelle 50k
The Roots 34k
Shakira Live 30k
Dia Frampton 23k
Neil Diamond 17k

BK and AW are too high. The rest look reasonable.

[horchata]

I hope Robin can at least hit 100k, but anything in the 90k+ range works too.

BK too high? I thought they sold about same last time. Maybe I remembered wrong. But they're really quite popular and has built a big solid fanbase over the years. I wouldn't be surprised that they open big.

T-Pain: 110k
Thicke: 100k

I hope "4" isn't too far off from the Top 50. I thought the 20/20 interview would have been a good promo too but it was used more for the tour DVD.

[areyoureadytojump]

Wow at Buble.

Good for Adele.

Justin Bieber has an excellent hold.

Bocelli re-enters the Top 10.

Glee almost returned to the Top 10.

Is that Mannhein album new?

She & Him re-enter the Top 20.

Trey Songz EP debuts at #24.

[badrobot]

Makes me all the more bummed that Adele fell out of the top 5 last week. It's one of the very few non-Xmas albums that actually gained!

[lugus15]

I think that by now, the only album that could take away #2 from Lady Gaga is Buble's Christmas album.

[Deleted]

With Buble's Christmas TV special airing soon, I think he stands a real good chance at crossing 2 mil by year's end.

[Push The Button]

Next week should be Buble's peak sales week - doubtful he'll be able to shoot past 2 million in the next three weeks.

[lugus15]

And LMFAO @ Mary J Blige selling more on her 2nd week, with no single of radio, than Rihanna.

One has the heavy promo, one has the hit single. They both could be doing a lot better if they had each other's particular attribute going for themselves.

If they both follow their usual trend Rihanna will have nice longevity and Mary will drop from the chart after the holiday season is over.

[HolidayGuy]

Will be nice if Buble's album tops 300K with SoundScan.

SuBo's new album is an oddity- it suffered a decent drop during Thanksgiving week, and holds pretty steady in the week after.

That Mannheim Steamroller albums is a new release; its peak thus far is No. 42 on the BB 200 (which it looks like it will outdo).

[kingofpain]

Hasn't Manheim Steamroller pretty much put out a new album every holiday season for the last zillion years?
