are you gonna release digital downloads info? Like Blair Cooper might've sold 100,000 downloads. if you want an example just post and ill get one.
no surprise. Tina is not in demand at all but i think with more promotion and some better singles it could do better. Hot is a hot song though, club banger with a great beat. i think it has a future.

Gabriel did way better than I expected, and I am really happy with Blair....
Does anyone else love the song Hey ther Delilah? I think its awesome. I don't get how Mandy Moore's song extraordinary is doing so bad, I always hear it on the radio and in stores.

i like hey there delilah but i really prefer Mandy's song. it's too bad, the song hasnt charted on the hot 100 and the album has sold like 50k in like 4-5 weeks which sucks. she just isnt that big of a music star anymore. or maybe its her single choices. i couldnt extraordinary being that big. hopefully she doesnt give up on the album.
does anyone else like ashley tisdale's songs? i freaking love them. michael i think you would like them cuz both of us like pop songs. Be good To Me, Headstrong, and He Said She Said are all great. I think you would like Be Good To Me. i think shes underrated... and hot lol

I'll have to check it out.
Its weird, because Mandy Moore has been doing a lot of promotion in Sacramento on different radio stations, with giveaways and stuff, and they play her song a lot. I actually went to Barnes & Noble yesterday because ppl wanted harry potter (not me) and they were playing her whole CD. Her CDs have never done that well though.
I'm really sad Kelly Clarkson isn't doing well, I like My December even better than Breakaway. Sober is my absolute favorite song right now, and I love Irvine, JUdas, Haunted and Never Again.

LOL, its the opposite here. I havent heard Mandy on ANY of the local radio stations and I havent seen her doing and promo or anything really at all lately. She's usually not a big seller (her first album didnt even sell 1 million). I really liked "Mandy Moore" though (In My Pocket is a classic to me lol) but it only sold like 450,000 and "Coverage" sold 300,000. If Coverage sold 300k im surprised Wild Hope only has 50k. She needs to do more big national promo.
Kelly Clarkson.- I like her and I really dont understand why her new album is flopping. People keep saying how she is suddenly all rocker in her songs like Never Again but then again, everyone liked Since U Been Gone and Behind These Hazel Eyes which were not little pop songs (they had some rock edge, especially Since U Been Gone). Never Again is more rock-ish but not by that much. Its still a good song. December will not come close to Breakaway's #s unless she releases alot of singles or gets some big hits. Its only sold 463k to date compared to Breakway's 5.8 million (wow).
This is why Carrie's expectations shouldnt be that great. Its not like it used to be. It used to be, a person would see a huge first album/second album and then the next album would instantly get huge first week sales just because the last one did so good. Not anymore.. it really depends on the singles they choose now.
Mandy's "Mandy Moore" album is the best.. Cry + In My Pocket are great. So Real was meh, while I Wanna Be With You was meh too. Coverage was ok, I really only liked Have Alittle Faith In Me. Extraordinary is good.. havent heard any other songs from the album.

Lol, I just heard Extraordinary in the car, and its on the radio station that plays like all the top 10, plus 90's hits. I love the songs Only Hope and Cry. On Wild Hope, I really like the second song All Good Things.
