Lol, I think more than 1.2 :nails;

A line-up of televised performances + TV guesting + interviews in the first week of Red's release, and how well her promotional singles debuted strongly in the HOT 100, already almost secure Taylor Swift for another Platinum-opening week. She may have lost some hardcore country fans with this noticeably pop radio-friendly-filled album thanks to the huge assist of Mainstream Top 40 hitmakers such as Max Martin and Shellback, but obviously Taylor has heavily gained pop music fans for the past weeks or months. Good for her, but the more I hear her new songs, the more I'm convinced that she's only releasing her own version of Teenage Dream to be quite honest. :shrug:

Is Lady Gaga still the most downloaded artist in history?

Sorry for asking. I wasn't sure if she was still... I remember in late November last year they said she was, but it might have changed. I doubt it though. Better safe to asking than just assuming.

ATLG 103 FLO RIDA FEAT. SIA WILD ONES 3,435,262

That's it? Deserves sooooo much more

Only because of Sia's amazing voice. Sia deserves some more recognition tbh.

itunes generally runs an offer whereby one can buy any released songs off an album first, and then later upgrade it to the whole digital album by paying the price of the album less the price of the songs already purchased. That both encourages the public to eventually buy the whole album (because it might only be a couple of $ to complete it) so boosting the album's sales, and also to buy the promo singles knowing they'll get the money back when they buy the album. However in doing so the sales of any such songs are negated. Typically the sales of singles are reduced by approximately 20% of those of the album (from past experience). It shows up as the songs for the week of album release having a much lower charting position than otherwise expected.

So if Taylor sells 1 million copies of the album, then around 200K of those sales could be by "the complete my album" method, and the corresponding sales of songs subtracted.

Obviously if people buy the songs digitally then a physical copy of the album then both count, but they'll have paid more.

Christina Aguilera revealed she has a duet with Blake Shelton on her new album. Should be...interesting.

? We've known that. She said a long time ago she's gonna have duets with C.Green and B.Shelton.

I thought Rihanna might have come & stole that weave. Hmm... hopefully with ARTPOP, that will change. But anyways, congrats on Rihanna... for that. & Omg... Sia... :cry:
