YOUR TOP 15: We dreamed a dream that Republic's Les Misérables soundtrack would occupy the top of the chart barricade, and woke up and found it was true: The box-office phenom's OST will claim the #1 spot in its third week of release. Here's what we hope is a somewhat accurate look at the first chart of 2013.
Les Misérables (Republic) 120-130k
One Direction (Syco/Columbia) 95-105k
Mumford & Sons (Glassnote) 85-95k
Taylor Swift (Big Machine) 85-95k
Phillip Phillips (19/Interscope) 60-70k
Pitch Perfect (UMe) 55-60k
Lumineers (Dualtone) 50-55k
Bruno Mars (Atlantic) 50-55k
P!nk (RCA) 50-55k
Alicia Keys (RCA) 45-50k
Now 44 (Capitol) 35-40k
Maroon 5 (A&M/Octone) 35-40k
Justin Bieber (Island/Def Jam) 35-40k
Imagine Dragons (Interscope) 35-40k
Kendrick Lamar (Aftermath/Interscope) 30-35k
T.I. (Grand Hustle/Atlantic) 30-35k
None of the other dreams we've had lately have manifested as chart developments, but since they mostly involve us suddenly being naked in Spanish class, that's probably a good thing. (1/3p)
These are actually great sales for the first week of January. Hopefully it is a good indication for 2013. I have a good feeling 2013 will be a year to remember.
I really want to see Les Mis.
The only disappointment is that Rihanna did not make predictions.

She should move to her next single, that can be able to sell the album, but it's gonna be interesting to see which one she choose
