Rounded numbers thanks to the amazing Ken Barnes over at Idol Chatter.
Please post numbers as you find them. Thanks.
Ha! I saw Cook’s updated vibe-rater blurb saying he would be in the Top 5 and immediately thought: Crap! he only sold like 120K. Looks like a relatively huge week for the Top 4.
I hope he sells at least one copy more than Daughtry did.
Wow at the HDD prediction! But I am taking it with a grain of salt especially this early…still would be ecstatic at anywhere around 200k
I’m doing the happy dance. Woo-hoo!!!!
HDD’s prediction, is this from a sales sampling they did from various reseller’s?
I too will take this with a grain of salt. If it moves that much, great! If not, the world won’t end. Topping Beyonce, Nickleback & Twilight is a huge achievement and one to be proud of!
OK, I’m going to pretend I haven’t read stephen’s post in the other thread. I’m not sure how to react to that.
Ken Barnes just posted the sales figures and according to him TOML has gone platinum
And Kirsten and Mjs blog get a shout out from Ken:

Kirsten has already done some excellent, handily organized research for MJ’s Big Blog, which tells us that David A. stands in third place among Idol runners-up for best debut sales week
Anyone knows how we can ´t see sells in other countries beside US???
I’m quite fangirly about it. I feel like Archie must have felt when he got mentioned by Fred over at BB. Ken Barnes and Nevada are my numbers heros.
Those are calculated separately by other countries’ SoundScan equivalents.

For accuracy”s sake:
Blake’s album is called Audio Daydream not Blake Lewis
Thanks. Will Update. LOL. I had it right on the charts today.
Once again for accuracy: “Audio Daydream”……no “s”
