She'll probably be in the top 10 sales weeks of the year so far, and a bump could leapfrog her up to the top 5 even!

I think most people do like the album. The ones who dislike it are, from what I see, people who were gonna hate it right from the start. A lot from Pulse act like they gave it a chance when they never did.

IMO, this album is very strong. The only song that I am not absolutely in love with is Unapologize. The others are all gems and I listen to them nonstop.

in FLOVE with Songs Like This. I really want CC to crossover.

My *prayer* single release list is:

1. Cowboy Casanova (no way)
2. Someday When I Stop Loving You
3. Change + Idol Gives Back
4. Songs Like This
5. Temporary Home
6. This Time/Look At Me/Quitter


ETA - I agree with Longevity for sure. Carrie's albums tend to have very very decent legs. Some Hearts had what, a 20x multiplier? Lol. Carnival Ride seems worse with a 6x multiplier, but that's still insane. Britney's latest is at 3x, Beyonce at 4x, etc.

Lol, "no way" is sarcasm that CC is gonna be the 1st single since it obviously already is.

Multiplier... i dunno if it's used in music, but it's a common box office term which is basically how much more the film makes compared to the first weekend (example first weekend: 50 million, total gross : 150 million = 3x multiplier). Some Hearts debuted with around 300k and is currently around 7 million, so that's around 20x. Carnival Ride was about 525k and is at 3 million, which is almost 6x. And Circus debuted w/ 500k and is at 1.5m, Sasha Fierce debuted with 500k and is at 2m. Don't quote me on Beyonce and Brit numbers because I'm not actually sure on them. :D
