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

    This album is going to have much more staying power in both singles and the record itself. I think the Album is gonna sell over 400,000 in it's first week this time.

    Now go get the top spot "Fixer".

    Hope so. Be nice to see PJ with a No. 1 single for a change! And hope that the album sells well. ;)

    That would be great if they could sell that many but I don't see it happening. :( Avocado sold 279,000 its first week but you could buy it everywhere, I read that Green Day lost 100,000 in first week sales because 21st Century Breakdown was not available at Wal-mart so I'm afraid this would be a similar situation if not worse. I can't see it selling more than the last one anyway, that was pretty impressive. I haven't seen any other big releases scheduled for that day yet so I'm guessing they'll cruise to #1 anyway. :P

    my guess is that they aren't too concerned about losing record sales via wal-mart shoppers.

    For example, there are no shitty Target stores in NYC..of course the hardcore fans will get their hands on it, but this exclusive arrangement is ridiculous..

    Have you guys ever been to a Target? They're actually quite nice, at least the one that's near me is.

    I don't have a car..but anyway, it's not about me, I was thinking about the casual music fan browsing anywhere in Manhattan etc....who goes to Target to look for records? Just saying that sales may suffer..of course the fanatics will get it one way or the other..
