Bruno may work his way up to #1 eventually depending on if any of the future singles from UJ are huge smashes. We'll have to wait and see.

Decent/good opening: 100-300K
Great opening: 300K+
Good overall sales: 500K-799K
Hit album: 800K-1.2M
Taylor and Buble-like sales are the exceptions that make the rule.
21-type sales are a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence.

24 will prove that last sentence wrong tho

Why does Taylor have to keep selling so many copies  The album isn't that revolutionary, ssssssigh.

That wasn't necessary.  And your fave can stay selling them copies while still remain irrelevant and a non-factor while the queen both sells boatloads while remaining relevant.

Bruno's sales have longevity, though don't they? Doo Wops has 6 million in sales WW I think. And I think he also does exceptionally well in Europe.
I think he'll be fine if he keeps getting those hits.

These are good numbers TBH for him, as sales really seem to be declining for a lot of pop artists and this is only his second album.

MONKEY BUSINESS: It appears that Bruno Mars' Unorthodox Jukebox really kicked in over the weekend, thanks to holiday shoppers and the extensive use of Hanukkah iTunes gift cards. Thus, sales on the New Elektra album will wind up substantially higher than midweek trending suggested; initially, we had it at 150-160k. How high will Bruno go, and will he sell enough to unseat Taylor Swift from the top of the HITS album chart? That would undoubtedly delight the bejeezus out of manager Brandon Creed. Stay tuned for further updates. (12/17a)
