Eminem's Recovery this week becomes the first album to sell 3 million copies in 2010. This is the earliest in the year that an album has topped 3 million in year-to-date sales since 2006, when the first High School Musical album hit that plateau in the week ending Sept. 3. Josh Groban's Noel was the only album to top the 3 million mark in 2007. It reached that plateau in the week ending Dec. 23. In 2008, no album reached 3 million. Taylor Swift's Fearless was the first to top the 3 million mark in 2009. It rang the bell in the week ending Dec. 27. This is a little bit of good news for the beleaguered music industry.
Recovery Loud and Recovery are the best albums of this year

It is really, really nostalgic when you think about how BIG High School Musical was. Like, that was the shiz when I was in 7th grade. I knew all the dances, and all the lyrics of all the songs. Then...it just wasn't cool.
If she hits the high end of the projections with 70K, all she needs is 30K. The Deluxe is charting lower so I don't think it'll match the 70K, but surely it'll do 30K, especially since the original Animal also factors in.

IKR? I'm so ashamed of myself for liking HSM. But whenever I want to look back on my childhood, I know I can just watch it and enjoy it.
