Beyonce And Taylor Swifts Albums Doing Really Well
Congrats Sasha, she’s given Taylor Swift some fierce competiton!
Hits Daily Double is predicting that Beyonce’s new double CD, I Am…Sasha Fierce, will become the #1 album by next week. The album is expected to sell between 500 and 550 thousand. I’ll wait and see as this is only a prediction. She may sell more. They made a similar prediction for Alicia Keys with As I AM and she sold about 700k first week!
Country cutie Taylor Swift’s sales for her debut sold 592 thousand copies. Taylor Swift’s “White Horse,” a track from her new album Fearless that was featured on the season premiere of Grey’s Anatomy has done extremely well for her. The soulful song will debut at #13 on Billboard’s all-genre Hot 100 singles chart this week, which will give her the 6th Top 20 debut of 2008 breaking the all-time Billlboard record for the number of Top 20 debuts in a calendar year by any artist!
Taylor’s other five songs that made the Top 20 include “Change”, “Fearless”, “You’re Not Sorry”, “You Belong With Me” and “Love Story”.
The previous record winner with five Top 20 debuts this year was held by her ex-boyfriend Joe Jonas and his brothers.
