I do think Adele could reclaim the top spot after next week. She's currently #1 on iTunes and Amazon. I think Adele will sustain around 80k for at least three weeks.

Selena Gomez & the Scene (Hollywood) 45-50k

+1

The "Rolling In The Deep" effect is not going to last forever.
Also if "Someone Like You" is the second single she needs to release a proper video for the song.

Strong hold for Selena.

Question: How does the hold for 4 compare to the second week for Beyonce's previous albums? I'm having a really tough time remembering. I know B*Day fell big, but I feel like Dangerously in Love and I Am... Sasha Fierce did better, right?

This is Beyonces FIRST time spending more than one week at #1.

DIL fell from 317k to 180K
IASF 480 to around 200K.

He's not doing as good but it doesn't have any hit and it's not the holidays. And B'Day was just a mess.

I remember B'Day having a huge drop, but how did its numbers look the first month?

B'Day

Week 1 - 541,196 -- #1
Week 2 - 161,594 (-70.1%) -- #3
Week 3 - 93,305 (-42.3%) -- #6

Then outta the Top 10 until Week 10.

Wow! "Irreplaceable" really did save that album.

Thank God for Irreplaceable, because if her best album didnt sell well, I would cry.

SLY is the biggest selling song in the uk for 2011 and it has no video. Also in my opinion it is her best song in her discography.

Didn't B'Day end up selling 3.2 million units????? I hope 4 can do the same!

no DIL Spent 2 weeks at #1

No. Ashanti's Chapter II debuted the next week, and spent 2 weeks.

Adele is ****in insane..she keeps on selling and selling, mad props to her team

No it didn't, B'day was already 3 million in before Irreplaceable.
