It's never come close to making the top ten on amazon.co.uk so far, which is disappointing, and now it's falling. I'm not sure we're even talking about a war with The Killers for the top spot in the UK anymore, just hoping that it makes No.2. Curiously, the King of Leon album that's been out for a while is above The Killers on amazon.co.uk. Kings of Leon are arguably now the biggest rock band in the UK. What's that all about? Are they another American band that Americans don't care about (not unlike the Killers), so they come over here and leach off our muppet supermarket shoppers instead?
What might save CD is that it should be popular with vinyl collectors, whereas many fans of those other acts wouldn't even know what vinyl is.
They play that Kings of Leon song (Sex on Fire?) and that Weezer song (Troublemaker) like every 10 minutes (on different radio stations) so they must be pretty hot right now. |

Chill man, think it's way to early to say something for sure  But after looking at the preorders it seemed good I think, but hard to tell. I think it will sell very good. |

The best buy i went to had a display box with around 150 cds at least
I asked a girl at the register if they had sold many, she said that "she" had done about 20 or 25 albums already and this was around noon.
So I'm guessing maybe 100 sold at this best buy today alone? maybe more
yes it is selling like hotcakes

yeah I was at Best Buy this morning around 10:30 and I hung out for a few minutes cause I have no life to see how the record was selling....there was a steady stream of people coming in the store and going directly to the display and buying cds...young fans, old fans, all types of people...very cool |

I'd say it sells between 750,000 and 900,000 first week. Question will be what kind of staying power it has. I think it'll end up selling around 2.5mil but thats not counting Itunes. that may push it to the 3 to 4 mil range. The days of selling 7 million are a thing of the past.

Not only were people picking up multiple copies at my Best Buy around 9:45 am (hell, I bought 3 CDs and 1 vinyl), but they were seriously excited to be buying the album. They were all talking about individual songs, wearing T-shirts, etc. It was pretty incredible to see. I get the feeling sales will be pretty strong, and that's an understatement.
