Susan Boyle Climbs Past 625k, Approaches 675k, Lambert #2, Lady Gaga Two in Top 10
Steve Barnett's Columbia Records and Susan Boyle have a lot to be thankful for this weekend. And that goes for you two, Adam Lambert and Lady Gaga.
Going into the weekend, Simon Cowell's gal Boyle is a runaway for #1 on next Tuesday's HITS Album Sales chart, with a total almost three times her closest competitor, 19/RCA/ RMG's Idol runner-up Adam Lambert.
Boyle's I Dreamed a Dream is on target for between 625-675k in sales, which would be the year's biggest debut, besting Eminem's 608k for his Relapse album.
Lambert's For Your Entertainment looks like a lock for #2 with between 210-230k.
The week's other big story is Interscope's Lady Gaga, whose seven-song Fame Monster EP will sell between 190-210k, good enough for #3, while her just-released two-disc Fame Monster deluxe edition should add another 130-150k to that album's total.
Decca's Andrea Bocelli is the lone Top 5 holdover at 180-200k, where he's running neck-and-neck with Def Jam/IDJ diva Rihanna's critically acclaimed Rated R with the same estimated total.
The rest of the chart looks a little something like this, pending weekend traffic:
Carrie Underwood (19/Arista Nashville) 100-120k
John Mayer (Columbia) 90-110k
* Shakira (Columbia) 85-100k
50 Cent (Shady/Aftermath/Interscope) 85-100k
Twilight Saga: New Moon (Chop Shop/Atlantic) 85-100k
Norah Jones (Blue Note/EMI) 85-100k
Taylor Swift Fearless (Big Machine) 85-100k
Michael Jackson's This Is It (Epic) 75-90k
Casting Crowns Peace on Earth (Provident/Reunion) 75-90k
Taylor Swift Holiday Collection (Big Machine) 75-90k

Lovely. A hag and a fag.
It is obvious to me you have personal experience in this hag and fag stuff.
I am not interested in your hag side. The hag comment is a tad bad enough. But I am more curious in your warped fag side comment.
It is obvious to me you are an expert in this.
Please explain. We are all ears.
OMG! No I did not.
Absolutely stunning!
Thank you so much for posting.
“That said, she is a hag in the looks department.”
Your mother must be proud of you.

Thank you for giving us that. Calling all Susan Boyle lovers to listen to this most beautiful of songs not on her album here.
Even those that don't care should listen to it and hear how she sings the word sky.
she was adorable and a good singer!!!
I love her and her being judged on looks is pathetic, she is incredibly talented.
Thank you so very, very much.
What a wonderful voice. After all these years having to take care of her sick mother, she can now come on to her own.
What a talented, wonderful woman.
Thank you again.
I watched American idol and did not want Adam to win, I loved Chris’ style so much more. Adam did a lot of screaming and lots of make-up!
Yes, it was fun to watch - the young Lady did good!
Andrea Bochelli is wonderful!
There is a lot of music on myspace that is fantastic and will never be widely available

Susan B. has a great voice. I want to hear her do “There will always be an England” or “Rule Britannia” or Even ‘God Bless America.” Adam L. is also Talented —He should do well on stage. I could see him as a singing Vampire. Chris (the real winner) is also good and needs to show his talent. Kelly Pickler should make a Tammy movie. She is a natural.
You obviously know very little about Lambert and his "performance" at the AMAs last Sunday. He's a flaming poofter.
It's all in the eye of the beholder.
Tee-hee, you said poofter
Good thing we don’t have a pic of you, huh? :)
Beauty is skin deep...but ugly goes clear to the bone.
I take it you're not familiar with her behavior after coming in second on Simon's show in Britain? The police had to deal with some of her antics.
Does she have the voice of an angel? Yes. Is she an angel? No.
A smile on my face, and a song in my heart...
Monty Python influenced me greatly...;-)
