I mean none of the singles even charted in the Hot 100 but yet the album opened decently strong with 261,000 and a #4 peak at debut week? How is that? And also debuted with higher than any opening by a Disney star with their albums at that time? Can someone explain?

Lindsay, her power.

I guess it has to do with her stanbase, the same can be said about Hilary, none of her singles had good peaks but her albums opened with strong #'s.

But her contemporary Hilary even charted on the Hot 100 top 40, but why Lindsay's singles didnt even reach Top 100 except "Confessions"? and also Lindsay debuted with higher sales than Hilary's openings with all of her debuts?

This also confused me, especially considering Lindsay opened really strong as compared to my Queen Hilary who has decent hits on the Hot 100.

I actually love some of Lindsay's music (especially Confessions of a Broken Heart and Over), I'm just baffled as to why she never got a Hot 100 hit?

I guess she had little airplay and that was a strange time probably with physical singles on the decline but the digital amrket still in development?!

Maybe the label did not care for single peaks and therefor neglected the physical single aspect?

Interesting, though. I never looked into that.

Cause she barely had radio airplay?

[B2R4D]

Her singles didn't chart on the Hot 100... what?

[Sexualcandy]

Btw listening again now and this album was truly fantastic for what it was

[Jeiboy]

This is kinda strange too. Any chart fanatics? Disney stans? to give more light on this issue? Thanks for the contributions by the way

The songs got modest radio airplay and digital downloads were not yet factored in the Hot 100.

Rumors peaked at #6 on the Bubbling Under Chart and also Over peaked #1 on the same as well

and yet still has the highest debut week sales coming from Disney

I don't think she had significant airplay to crack the Hot 100.

this. maybe her fans were buying digital copies instead of the physical (if those were available). The Hot 100 started to include digital sales into their formula in February 2005.

which means Hilary is better in both sales and radio department ?

but yet only that release week Lindsay stans showed their most support (in that case)?
