I think that's incredible considering its a pre-order.

    What's even stranger is we know the diehards wouldn't pre-order mp3s when they can get the actual album. There must be some buzz going around about the album..

    Agreed.

    I'll be interested to see where it goes from here.

    The radio station I bitched about a few weeks ago because it wasn't playing The Fixer enough is playing the song pretty much more than any other song now.

    Its funny you said that because I've noticed the same thing by me. All of a sudden I'm hearing the fixer 3 times a day (and I'm not complaining). Its better than hearing Sex on Fire 17 times

    It's number 31 on iTunes UK, and we didn't get the free Fixer video, so doing pretty well here too.

    Has anyone else downloaded the free videos from iTunes? Just wondering because the Backspacer short film is pretty cool. There's the song "just breathe" in it and from what I've heard of it is really beautiful. not going to lie.. kinda got emotional when I first heard it.. especially after last nights amazing concert..Just wondering..

    iTunes should put clips of all the songs up to create a little hype.. I know when I check out albums I like to play the clips.. someone who was once a fan or kind of likes them might be persuaded more to pre-order.

    The making of backspacer video is a must-see. It really gives a feel of what to expect from the album but I it still feels like there could be some great surprises in it. I am glad it hasn't leaked yet since it will be nice to hear a bunch of songs for the first time after being real familiar with a few of the songs.

    KROQ in LA shows it as the 16th most played song on their station, up from the 20th spot last week. It seems to have found it's sea-legs.
    Up here so high I start to shake, Up here so high the sky I scrape, I've no fear but for falling down, So look out below I am falling now, Falling down,...not staying down, Could’ve held me up, rather tear me down, Drown in the river

    Very impressed how The Fixer is holding its ground on Billboard, and gaining airplay over the past two weeks! :D
