I'm really sad to see Ashlee's Bittersweet World isn't there...I thought it would get to 120k by now.
Last time it was on the top 200 it was standing on 95k+ so it cracked the 100k for sure by now...She needs a new single and a video ASAP.

And Now I Wonder

GO LEONA!!!

*btw I just noticed that Leona's first and second single's title's last words are the same as Mariah Carey's first and second single's title's last words :X *

WOW @ Coldplay!

Why? Because her album was a letdown or because she released the wrong singles? I'm going to go with the latter. 'Bye Bye' was atrocious. I don't know who in their right mind predicted that song would go to #1.

TMB was a good first single at least, but she should have postponed IBLULT and released Side Effects or I'm That Chick. I don't really want Migrate or I Stay In Love to be singles but those would be smart choices.

It is definitely bad single choice :-\
If I was to release five singles from the album I wouldn't have even considered releasing 'TMB'

I would have released 'ITC', 'ISIL', 'SE', 'IBLULT' and 'FTR'

I wouldn't release 'Migrate' tbh, it seems more of a fan favourite than anything and all the fans would have the album so I don't think it would do as well as people expect. If she done this era right she could have had two/three potential #1s already

Cus it's actually a good album.

Followed by a cover of No Woman No Cry ....

It's possible to have at least the top 5 all over 1,000,000, but it's kind of sad to think that it's near impossible to have the whole top 10 sell over 1,000,000 this year.

tcatron565

However, I can see the top 40 filled with over 500,000

LOL!

Tcatron I think the top ten will all be over 1 million definitely! We still have 5 months of the year left and Christmas when sales shoot up in general

Taylor, Usher and Leona should all top 1m within 6 weeks, perhaps sooner.

I think the only way IBLULT would do well is if she had released it right after the success of "Touch My Body".

I cannot believe "Bye Bye" was released as a single. Especially the 2nd single.

I agree, "side effects" would've been a great choice. I also think "Cruise Control" could've done well.

Nice numbers for Leona Lewis. She'll deffo make it to 1,5 million.

Adrian

Leona's sales are great!

Alicia?! Ew.
