TOML hit 1 million in a DAY. I think those are stats above are monthly streams. Big difference. Light On premiered on AOL as well, and IIRC, hit 1 million after a week or a few days, per some press release.

ALL I EVER WANTED
Both Kelly and Carrie fell out of the top 50 with the final report.
Maybe Adam genuinely IS going to explode if they can transform him into the equivalent of Lady GaGa. Because what I want to know is how does she continually defy the “pop sells singles; rock sells albums” rule?
Most of her pop-cousins, such as Katy Perry, only have monster single sales and relatively limited album sales. But, every week Gaga sells singles AND albums like a CHAMP (not to mention the fact that she dominates the charts)….
So who is her album-buying constituency? Hip-hop oriented fans? Club kids? Gay fans?
Anyway, if they get Adam to whatever her base is, he will be set….

Indymuse, maybe my memory is faulty then. I thought Archie only seemed to get equal push once Crush blew up, but maybe I’m mistaken. (Actually, Archie got more buzz then, what with the “Cook Crushed” headlines, and it seemed like the media was sharpening their knives for Cook because they were smelling a Clay/Ruben situation redux with regards to record sales).
Sorry I missed that. You’re right it is a big difference. The other things I mentioned still possibly apply, imo. I’m aware of what LO did because I’m a huge DC fan. I also know about various suggestions on DCO.
