Overcome Vs I Look To You !
Hey, dont know if anyone else has noticed but it seems its gonna be close for the top spot on the album chart this week!
Everytime I go to itunes whitney and alexandra keep on swaping places at the number 1 spot. I actually hope whitney gets to number 1! |

I dont think it will be that close, itunes sales dont contribute that much towards total album sales anyway. It's about 90% physical and 10% downloads.

That's true actually
Paloma faith's album may be number 1 on itunes but how many people are actually buying it physically. My sale should count this week towards that album. |

Tey are both good albums but Whitney's is easily best. One of my favourites this year.

iTunes album positions very rarely reflect overall sales. the other week, Deadmau5's album was no.2 on iTunes all week but ended up at 19 on the official chart at the end of the week.
best to wait for the midweeks tomorrow. |

Does itunes really have that little effect on the overall charts? I'm surprised ... I didnt realise so many people still bought CD's. I havent bought CD's for years with the exception of FrankMusik and that was only because my name was on it.

Apparently you only need to sell around 150 copies to be number 1 on i-tunes.

Well Amazons CD chart has Michael Buble at #1
Alex at 2 and Whit at 3. Their MP3 chart has Alex at #1, Paloma Faith #2 and Editors #3 |

No contest and won't be close at all. Alexandra will sell far more than Whitney. In fact I'll even say twice as much by Sunday. I think Buble will beat Whitney too.

Won't alex be number one anyway with all her pre-orders? The way it SHOULD work is with Whitney or Mr Buble being number one with Alex being 3rd, if you're going by the rule of the 'download generation' buying it off iTunes or getting it illegally and the majority of Whitney fans being more of the 'Purchase type' by actually buying the physical CD.
But that's of course agist and stereotypical lol, niether of which I actually am.. since I'm quite the opposite. I'm 19, purchase of iTunes and mainly buy physical CD Albums. |

I heard Alexandra singing Hallelujah and she sounds great. She's definitely got a beautiful voice on her. Saying this though, all these top named women have gorgeous voices on them, like....Alexandra - Leona - Beyonce ect...

Alexandra's album is miles better than Whitney's. Her ballads are amazing, very smart only putting 3 ballads on the album. The only dud song I think is 6 feet under, but every other song is worthy of being a hit single.

I hope Paloma makes the top 10. I have become such a fan in less than 24 hours
But back to Alex. ANy prediction for sales. Leona sold about 300k for her debut. |

Alexandra will probably be Number 1, despite her album being amatuerish compared to Whitney's.
