Yes. No song has ever leaped that far up the chart for any reason other than the digital release.

WHOO!!!

[spongebob]

Codex i love your Russian avatar!!! hahaha..party for everybody dance!!

[cesarams]

Why Billboard didn't show the album's #1 with the top 10 digital, yet?

[ListenToItTwice]

Should be any minute now... Paul Grien's column just came out.

[cesarams]

^When you see it, post it, please. I'll be out for a couple of hours and I wanna see it on Pulse when I come back.

[HolidayGuy]

Billboard may be trying something new- albums report first (with no Digital Songs data), and singles later in the day?

[Rodze]

I hope whatever it is it doesn't mean less sales information.

[badrobot]

I think they just had some Soundscan snafus that are holding things up based on the Grein/BB articles reporting different numbers for albums.

[ListenToItTwice]

^ Unrelated to this issue, but: I notice that Paul Grien often makes very specific references to things written by Billboard's writers ("Billboard's Keith Caulfield notes that...") . Does Billboard ever reciprocate?

Phillip Phillips Makes 'Idol' History as 'Home' Sells 278,000 Downloads
by Keith Caulfield, L.A. | mai 30, 2012 4:15 EDT

"American Idol" winner Phillip Phillips earns the highest debut on the Digital Songs chart this week as his "Home" bows at No. 2 with 278,000 downloads sold according to Nielsen SoundScan.

Even better: It's the second-best digital sales week ever for any "Idol" contestant. Only Kelly Clarkson's 2009 song "My Life Would Suck Without You" had a bigger frame, when it debuted with 280,000 downloads.



That may come as a surprise, considering the lengthy careers -- and stellar sales -- of such successful "Idols" as Clarkson and Carrie Underwood. Underwood's best sales week for a song came in 2009, when her "I Told You So" (featuring Randy Travis) started with 125,000.

'American Idol' Has Lowest-Rated Finale Ever

"Home" also marks the biggest sales week for any "Idol" winner's coronation single since SoundScan began tracking downloads in 2003. It surpasses David Cook's "The Time Of My Life," which debuted with 236,000 in 2008.

Before downloads replaced the CD single as the predominant format for buying songs, two other "Idol" finalists had larger sales weeks than Phillips with their season-finale singles.

At the end of "Idol's" second season in 2003, Clay Aiken's "This Is The Night" CD single launched with 393,000 in its first full week of sales. Meanwhile, winner Ruben Studdard saw his "Flying Without Wings" start with 286,000.

Phillips' arrival this week is also the fourth-largest debut of the year. It trails Justin Bieber's "Boyfriend" (521,000), Maroon 5's "Payphone" featuring Wiz Khalifa (493,000) and Katy Perry's "Part of Me" (411,000).

Justin Bieber Releases 'Die In Your Arms' Song: Listen

Phillips also debuts on Digital Songs at No. 41 with "We've Got Tonight" (43,000) and No. 54 with "Volcano" (35,000).

As a note: The weekly sales of songs by "American Idol's" contestants are withheld from SoundScan (and from appearing in the iTunes Store's own popularity lists) while its TV season is in progress. Fox and "Idol" does this in order to keep from influencing the voting public in the course of the season. Once the show has concluded, the sales are then reported to SoundScan, and in turn, Billboard. The sales reported this week are only for the week ending May 27. They are not for the entire season.

As for the rest of the top 10 on the Digital Songs chart this week, Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" sits tight at No. 1 for a second frame, selling 301,000 (up 3%). Maroon 5's "Payphone" holds at No. 3 (265,000; down 6%) and Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" (featuring Kimbra) drops two spots to No. 4 (just under 264,000; down 9%).

Nicki Minaj's "Starships" falls one to No. 5 (153,000; down 12%) and fun.'s "We Are Young" (featuring Janelle Monae) is down 5-6 (149,000; down 8%). Pitbull's "Men in Black III" theme "Back In Time" jumps 11-7 with 147,000 (up 47%) and Rihanna's "Where Have You Been" climbs 13-8 (146,000; up 48%). The latter was performed by the diva on the May 23 season finale of "American Idol." Pitbull's tune benefits from "MIB's" opening in U.S. theaters on Friday, May 25.

Justin Bieber's "Boyfriend" slips 7-9 (144,000; up less than 1%) and Flo Rida's "Wild Ones" (featuring Sia) closes out the top 10 at No. 10 -- down four spots -- with 135,000 (down 11%).

Digital track sales this past week totaled 25.98 million downloads, up 4% compared to last week (24.95 million) and up 5% stacked next to the comparable week of 2011 (24.69 million). Year to date track sales are at 571.28 million, up 7% compared to the same total at this point last year (536.14 million).

4 songs above 250k. Pretty remarkable. And we are back to a 300k+ #1. Too bad last week broke the streak.

[jebsib]

You do know that Paul Grein worked prominently for Billboard for almost 20 years? I'm sure they still have some kind of relationship.

[Living Legend]

I'm so happy people are responding to Phillip on the same level as Scotty McCreery & David Cook. His debut album will definitely go Gold if the material is good. They need to have him do similar promo that David Cook did in Fall 2008.

No, I don't think so.

Paul recently mentioned that he had to change the way he wrote his column due to "contractual obligations." He no longer could create a list of the Top 10 albums. He now has to do it in paragraph form.

I'm sure Billboard complained.

Paul works for Yahoo and receives his numbers from SoundScan.

[Taylor.]

That's great for Phillip. Hope it bodes well for his album sales.

No mention of of Usher's "Scream"? It should be over 100k...

Phillip Phillips Storms Hot 100's Top 10, Gotye Has Year's Longest-Running No. 1
by Gary Trust, N.Y. | mayo 30, 2012 6:10 EDT

Phillips logs the first Hot 100 top 10 'American Idol' coronation song since 2008, while Gotye's 'Somebody That I Used to Know' reigns for a seventh week.

Newly-crowned "American Idol" champion Phillip Phillips is the first artist to send a coronation single into the Billboard Hot 100's top 10 in four years, as his "Home" blasts onto the chart at No. 10.

Phillip Phillips Makes 'Idol' History as 'Home' Sells 278,000 Downloads

Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know," featuring Kimbra, meanwhile, spends a seventh week at No. 1 on the Hot 100 to become this year's longest-leading No. 1.

Phillips' "Home" sold 278,000 downloads following its May 23 release (for the sales tracking week ending Sunday, May 27), according to Nielsen SoundScan, and debuts at No. 2 on the Digital Songs chart. With its No. 10 bow on the Hot 100, "Home" is the first "Idol" victory single to reach the top 10 since David Cook's "The Time of My Life" debuted and peaked at No. 3 in 2008.

The 2009 and 2011 "Idol" victors just missed the Hot 100's top tier, each posting No. 11 debuts and peaks with their winner songs: Kris Allen's "No Boundaries" and Scotty McCreery's "I Love You This Big," respectively. 2010 champ Lee DeWyze reached No. 24 with his cover of U2's "Beautiful Day."

Atop this week's Hot 100, Gotye's "Somebody" notches a seventh week at No. 1 to become this year's longest-ruling title. It bests the six-week command of the chart's prior leader, fun.'s "We Are Young," featuring Janelle Monae. "Somebody" now boasts the longest run atop the Hot 100 for a song by a male artist since Eminem's "Love the Way You Lie," featuring Rihanna, also posted seven weeks at No. 1 in July through September 2010.

"Somebody" spends a second week at No. 1 on the Radio Songs chart with 138 million in all-format audience (up 1%), according to Nielsen BDS. It drops 2-3 on Digital Songs (264,000, down 9%), while staying atop On-Demand Songs (1.1 million on-demand streams, down 5%, according to BDS) for a sixth week.

The songs at Nos. 1 through 9, in fact, remain stationary on the Hot 100. It's the first time that the top nine have remained in the same order in consecutive weeks since the entire top 10 repeated their ranks on the chart dated Jan. 10. 2004.

Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" holds at No. 2 on the Hot 100, claiming top Airplay and Streaming Gainer honors. On Radio Songs, the track pushes 9-7 with a 16% gain to 86 million in audience. On On-Demand Songs, "Maybe" lifts 3-2 with 1 million on-demand streams (up 4%), according to BDS. The cut holds at No. 1 for a second week atop Digital Songs (301,000, up 1%).

Likely having aided Jepsen's jumps this week? She performed "Maybe" on the 2012 Billboard Music Awards, broadcast Sunday night (May 20) on ABC.

With "Maybe" up by 7% in overall Hot 100 points and "Somebody" down by 4%, Jepsen continues to narrow the gap between the chart's top two titles, likely setting up a closer battle for next week's No. 1 song.

Maroon 5's "Payphone," featuring Wiz Khalifa, stays at No. 3 on the Hot 100, bulleting again at No. 6 on Radio Songs (89 million, up 14%) and holding at No. 3 on Digital Songs (265,000, down 6%). The song dips 2-3 on On-Demand Songs (974,000, down 4%).

Fun.'s "Young" maintains its No. 4 rank on the Hot 100, while Nicki Minaj's "Starships" docks again at its No. 5 peak to date. Flo Rida's "Wild Ones," featuring Sia, places at No. 6 for a second frame; One Direction's former No. 4 hit "What Makes You Beautiful" ranks at No. 7 for a third week; and the Wanted's No. 3-peaking "Glad You Came" spends a third week at No. 8.

Justin Bieber's "Boyfriend," which reached No. 2 on the Hot 100 upon its debut eight weeks ago, regains its bullet at No. 9. The song - which Bieber also performed at the Billboard Music Awards - registers gains on Radio Songs (53 million, up 9%) and Digital Songs (144,000, up less than 1%), while holding at No. 5 on On-Demand Songs (695,000, down 5%).

Check Billboard.com tomorrow (May 31), when all rankings, including the Hot 100 and On-Demand Songs in their entirety and Digital Songs and Radio Songs, will be refreshed, as they are each Thursday.

^No. 10 had 135K, so plenty of room there for 100k+ sellers. :)

With many competition shows having their season finales now, I won't be surprised if the numbers decline a bit entering the summer months.

Still, the digital market is quite robust right now.

It does appear Pitbull is likely poised for the Top Ten a week from today, since he has the airplay to back up his sales, bolstered by the bowing of "Men In Black III". The track doesn't do it for me (Pitbull is generally entertaining to me since I recognize him as a businessman, not an artist, first and foremost and he's more often than not skilled at making business sound infectiously catchy even when his lyrics are awful) but it's at least good to see some rotation in the top tier.

Namaste,
lisping HIBISCUS

I'm hoping Back In Time, Where Have You Been and Scream can shake up this overly-static top 10 soon.

[kingofpain]

Well at least Train got their top 10 hit! It would have been funny if Home had stalled at 11 like the other two idol songs. And of Train had stayed at 10, when was the last time the entire top 10 remained exactly the same?
