What does "stay afloat for all of 2010" mean? To "stay afloat" means to stay around the same position as opposed to sinking or rising, the other two options.

An overly optimistic statement to make in January
18 albums since 1963 have been in the top 10 for a whole year
Taylor Swift was the first in over a decade

lol, seriously, being #2 in your 7/8th week is not THAT incredible. it's great, but a lot of albums have done it, Swift was #1 in her 14th week. I do think this album will do great, and I see it going 6x/7x platinum, but I certainly don't see this going diamond, though I wouldn't mind if it did. In all honesty, Susan Boyle is a poor/ugly woman that is talented and deserves her success, that's why she's selling, in my opinion.

Kesha's 'Animal' album is #1 on iTunes again! Fantastic!

SuBo could easily go diamond (IMO) if she re-released her album with Christmas tracks, a DVD, and a new cover. Easy. Throw in a PBS special and she'll keep selling like crazy.

Listening and watching Susan's story on Oprah has really helped me understand her appeal much better, nothing but well-wishes for her!

Have you tried to listen to the music yet? If you're referring to me, I've heard the album for quite some time now. I like her take on Wild Horses but other than that the album is just a little too stale and boring for me. Either way, I wish her the best.

And I guess #2 will really be Alicia's peak it seems she can't make her way to the top this month.
When's the next big release?
