64 Phillip Phillips - Unpack Your Heart (iTunes SA)

[Ichinaru19]

Forgot we are getting more promo tomorrow on Kelly and Michael at 9AM I hope we get another little push, although I don't think thats a great promo slot. Anyways I would be really happy if HAC pulls RF to Top 5, but Top 10 is already great considering its Itune position for the majority of the time

[Ichinaru19]

Also 36. Raging Fire

[lflmuselp]

Predictions didn't change, still 35-40k. HDD also take into account promo, so I don't see it going past 40k. Hopefully RF takes off.

[Ichinaru19]

35-40k isn't that bad. We were hoping for 50k so thats only a little under. What matters more if the album has legs

[lflmuselp]

I can write a whole essay explaining why 35-40k is bad for Phillip, but I am not going to do it. I guess just keep supporting him and hope that RF sticks this time on iTunes because he won't get more promo after this. Too many damn performances of the song already.

You could make quick points if you want . Anyways I personally don't think its that bad. His debut album opened with 100k sales right?

169k

I am no longer interested in making my point about the low numbers, it is redundant when all of you here intentionally choose to ignore the facts.

Edit: Okay yeah a little harsh, but you see how bad I feel about the numbers. Phillip doesn't deserve this, he delivered a good album.

Why do you say all of you ignore the facts ? I'm not included i hope because it's not true

Really? I have followed Idol sales for many years, so I think differently about all this. These numbers just prove that Phillip needs a single (that is a sales hit) to sell albums. We desperately need that Pop add date.

You did not answer my question, who's ignoring facts and why didn't you just talk to Ich instead of making assumptions that are not true, at least if you included me ? i know the numbers aren't good and i choose to be positive and hope for the best, just not your case though.
We're different in dealing with things and it's showing lol

WELL THEN Yes I guess don't bother because we just ignore it. Just because I don't have the same opinion of yours doesn't mean I'll just ignore what you have to say. Very harsh indeed. I don't like it when people are like "I can say but I'm not". You either explain or at least don't be a jerk about it and I said nicely that I would like to hear the points of why you think its bad. Perhaps I'm being too harsh now but I'm insulted you said that tbh

When I said "Really?" it was obvious that I did include you. I said "everyone," but now I realize I must have left out GoneHome. It is VERY hard for a stan to be objective in all of this. Funny that you are now saying the numbers aren't good. Unfortunately in the music business, things don't work based on hope and faith, but on hard facts. 169k to 40k is a 76% drop. 169k to 35k is a 79% drop.

[GoneHome]

They lowered the price of the Deluxe + Standard on iTunes by $1 right?

$14.99 for Deluxe, $10.99 for Standard.

I can't remember if it was always like that

[Ichinaru19]

I think they did. Idk the prices are weird The amazon thing had it at like 18 dollars when I bought it

[GoneHome]

Mmmm, I got $7.17 discounted from my order because I chatted with them

Interscope screwed up so badly.
