With 36.2% of the panel reporting, "Backspacer" is not in the top 50. I think it's safe to assume that Target has not reported yet. (Note: The link below purportedly updates frequently.)

Judging from the early numbers, I think my prediction of a fall to somewhere between #10 and #12 looks like it has a shot, and probably more like #12.

    I think you're right. Unless Target sold them only for one week :lol:

    Last week, Hits Daily was stuck at 37.17% forever, until Monday night or Tuesday when it jumped to 100%. I expect the same.
    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

    From the hitsdailydouble website:

    YOUR WEAKEND TOP 10 (OR 15) CHART PREVIEW: A shitload of debuts (figuratively speaking) will infiltrate the top of next week’s chart. Outside the holiday months of November and December, next week could mark the first time in nearly two years when each of the Top 15 sells more than 40k. Next Tuesday they may well be popping the champagne corks at Hollywood, in Disney’s first hat trick since they sold the Mighty Ducks. Congrats to topper Peter Paterno… Scratch that—we just learned Peter’s no longer at the label… Anyhoo, here’s what we’re looking at—and while we’re at it, here’s looking at you, kid....
    * Paramore (Fueled by Ramen) 185-195k
    * Mariah Carey (Island/IDJ) 160-170k
    * Barbra Streisand (Columbia) 150-160k
    * Breaking Benjamin (Hollywood) 140-150k
    * Alice in Chains (Virgin) 130-140k
    Jay-Z (Roc Nation) 80-85k
    * Miranda Lambert (Columbia Nashville) 70-75k
    * Madonna (Warner Bros.) 65-70k
    Pearl Jam (Monkeywrench) 65-70k
    * AFI (Interscope) 55-60k
    * Selena Gomez & the Scene (Hollywood) 55-60k
    Whitney Houston (Arista/RMG) 45-50k
    Miley Cyrus (Hollywood) 40-45k
    * Dethklok (Williams Street) 40-45k
    Harry Connick Jr. (Columbia) 40-45k
    * Denotes debut
    You may now return to debating a possible re-fi with your spouse. (10/2p)

    So, it should be around the top 10 and aside from Jay-Z the only album near the top that's not a debut.

    Looks like my prediction from last week might have been a good one. I predicted that "Backspacer" would fall to between #10 and #12, trailing only Jay-Z among non-debuts.

    Their projections are interesting. If their projection for AFI plays out, it will be a huge dropoff for that band. AFI's last album sold 182,000 the first week.

    They also project 40,000 for Miley Cyrus, but she already has 33,000+ with 37% reporting. Maybe all the kiddie stores have already reported.

    Not hard to figure out. Miley Cyrus should be shot. Maybe a shot to the face is a little harsh though, in hindsight.

    What's hard to figure out is why people would say something like that.

    Why should she be shot? Did she kill your grandmother?

    You have absolutely no class. Are you threatened by a teenage girl? Did your mommy not give you enough love as a child? God forbid our daughters have something of a decent artist too look up to thats not showing her stomach every other second on TV and has somewhat of a normal family life. You are pathetic.

    She dresses like a slut. What the fuck are you talking about?? She poisons those little girls. She's not decent in any way. She was a leader in the whoring up of preteen girls. You're fuckin delusional.

    Relax. It was a joke. I'm not really gonna shoot her.

    Don't take life so seriously ya sour puss.

    I gotta agree, she was putting up pics of herself showing her bra on the internet when she was like 16. Plus she hooks up with older men, not to mention her dads a douche. You should rethink your priorities if you want your daughters to look up to Miley Cirus, and shes not even a decent artist. Shes a product of Disney, just like the Jonas Bros.


    and I'm totally reporting you to the police for threatening to kill her
