A third week without a doubt too

Massive sales of Somebody That I Used To Know, multi-format radio support and streaming power. But yeah, "Payphone" was a huge smash

Payphone was blocked 6 times.

She can do it.

I noticed they didn't sell 400K in their third week though.

69. Acapella This song has done so well digitally despite its poor performance on radio

Welp.

Roar still will break BL weeks selling +400k record tho.

How do you'll think "Wrecking Ball" will debut with?

557k to 392k

Challenge Accepted!!!!!

Eminem is falling already

Kesha did a million in two weeks too!!
it was the christmas weeks though and not the debut weeks!!

Katy Perry is a fighter.

That was quick.

i see you carried those in your belt for long!!

but nice work! i dont remember anyone else doubting her doing 400K, so well done!

oh well, if she's doing less than 400K already, then she's no bigger than all those songs in that list Umich posted..

It was

It comes with chart-watching experience. I was also actively comparing her percentages with other songs in the Top 10 at the time, not just Blurred Lines, and the numbers lined up for her to do around 400K. I just applied a more conservative margin of error, since I was off by around 23K the week before.

I don't see her selling above 400K anymore (exception: week of MV release.) Roar will most likely have multiple weeks of 300K+ sales instead. BL only sold over 400K that many times because of its innate advantage of having the urban audience's sales.

haha, that was clever..! i dint think of that!!
i think most people (atleast me) forgot to factor that one day when the song was deleted from itunes, it must have taken a few thousand sales away from it!!
