Bruce will outsell Adele 2 to 1 this week. O really... I don't see this happening, lol. But he could definitely outsell her.

Interesting tidbit from Paul Grein ... "19" sold 930k prior to the release of "21." "19" has just crossed the 2 million mark this week. That's pretty incredible in itself.

Hmm a tie at #98 in sales, I wonder how often that happens in the top 100... I know I've seen it a few times near the bottom but not in the top half.

This star has fallen quite a bit in recent years 1 197 * JARULE PIL2 3192 999 27 Wow that's what I call a flop. But, he hadn't released anything after 2004 and all the guests on the album are nobodies. Only name that stood out was 7 Aurelius.

He hasn't released an album in 8 years and has been in jail for about 8 months now. It was inevitable.

Adele is only 105000 away from 8 million scanned! :o
Also, looking at last week's total, it seems 19 has crossed 2 million

^Yes. I just found out on Thursday. My post was from Wednesday night.
I tweeted Nickelback last week and asked them to remind their label to certify their album. It was eligible for Gold. And it was certified...
I also tweeted Mary J Blige and Brantley Gilbert. Nothing yet...

New RIAA certifications on the Billboard 200: Adele 21, 8xp Adele 19, 2xp Slaying effortlessly just to show that it still can be done. Can't wait for the I told you so's when this hits diamond by year end as i stated last year. Unless some christmas act comes out and pulls 4M in the last two months of 2012, I feel like Adele has it in the bag for being the top album of 2012. I'm starting to wonder if she can make it for a 3rd year...or maybe a top 10 placement in 2013. Has there ever been an artist to have the top selling album 3 years in a row ???

I'm sort of thinking she might be able to sell more than 4kk by the end of this year, which means the act would have to sell above that! And even Taylor Swift and Eminem can't really do that.

He answered the question: No album has done it three years in a row (and Adele very likely won't, either), but three have done it twice. Now here's another question: has any artist ever had the top selling album three years in a row, with any number of albums? The answer, again, is no. The only artists to win the album prize two years in a row have been Michael Jackson ( Thriller in '83/'84) and Elton John ( Goodbye Yellow Brick Road in '74 and ~'s Greatest Hits in '75.) If Adele puts out a new album in 2013, she could be the first.

Eminem has also had the top selling album for two years, but not in a row.

West Side Story was #5 in 1964, so that was close too
The Sound of Music Cast album was #1 for the year in 1960 and 1961 and #5 in 1962
In the mid 60's the movie soundtrack charted on the year end charts from 1965-1968) at 3,2,4 and 14 respectively

It really was a blockbuster album, but is rarely one of the first that comes to mind.
