Taylor debuts at #2 this week after selling 298,000 copies of his self-titled album. Young Jeezy sold 352,000 for the top spot.
Fantasia checked in at #19 with her new album. Selling 133,000. Tough week when 133K is only #19. Kellie was #9 at 79K her debut week.
So what's that mean. Daughtry beat Taylor by 6,000 copies. Let the calls of "Now we know we the real American Idol is begin." No, I'm not talking about Katharine. This has nothing to do with her.
They don't have the new singles sales chart up yet. Just the story about last week's sales.
Back to this week's chart, Daughtry stays at #7 with 181,000. I believe that takes Chris over 700,000 now in four weeks. Mighty impressive.
And Carrie Underwood continues to amaze...57 weeks after her release she sells another 199,000 copies to move up to #6.
Just thought you might be interested in hearing that Chris beat Taylor in album sales. And just to have those 304,000 & 298,000 numbers out there. Granted, Katharine won't be in the Christmas/Thanksgiving rush so she likely won't get those numbers. But something around 200,000 would be great for a late January release. It's all about still being relevant 57 weeks later like Carrie though. That's the important thing. That's how you sell 3-4 million records.
