Arturo 40,746 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Yes they are, but I'd much rather have better album numbers than boosted single numbers. Gonna have to deal because that's just how it's going to be :confuse: I know album sales > single sales but I was just trying to see the bright side by acknowledging the fact that at least single sales are going up. Hopefully that trend doesn't stop. Maybe album sales would increase a bit if some albums weren't so damn overpriced Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhonyguy04 3 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 so Justin B. and Niki have peaked on radio. Makes me worried about radio and Gaga. But at least P!nk is smashing, which is more relieving. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANiCURE1295 8,673 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Surprised that PTA is flopping. I expected much better! Edit: Katy's last 3 singles off TD show how much the public has gotten sick of her. Compare California Gurls and Part of Me... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig 680 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Flo Rida is done at #1. Whistle thankfully doesn't have the legs in Canada-US that it did in Oz. Taylor will reign until Maroon 5 (or maybe Fun) knocks it off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzy8923 9 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Gosh, I wish music piracy didn't exist because of this I wouldn't be surprised that if the total number of people that have BTW (album) on their ipods are 5M in the U.S :roll: At least digital sales are going up right, Leo? FUN FACT: 10.6 million people WW have illegally downloaded Femme Fatale. Who ever said no promotion creates bad album sales? IT HURTS ME. Imagine how many illegally got BTW!
