DREAM COMES TRUE: Susan Boyle's Columbia album, I Dreamed a Dream, which hit the streets today, is already selling two to three times the estimated
pre-release total for retailers, on top of breaking the all-time pre-order record at Amazon.com. Based on current tallies, the disc will easily top 500k and
could go even higher. (11/23p)

Susan Boyle set for biggest UK album of 2009
LONDON (Reuters) - Scottish singer Susan Boyle, who shot to fame after her audition for "Britain's Got Talent" was aired in April, appears set to have the biggest album in Britain this year, music retailer HMV said on Monday. "I Dreamed A Dream," Boyle's debut album released by Sony Music, went on sale in Britain on Monday and hits stores in the key U.S. market on Tuesday. HMV spokesman Gennaro Castaldo said the 48-year-old was on course for first-day sales of nearly 150,000 copies in Britain, including online pre-orders. "HMV is now revising significantly its estimate for the total weekly sales upward from the 300,000 that we initially projected to a figure closer to 400,000," Castaldo said. "This would easily make the album the biggest and fastest-selling release of 2009. Susan Boyle set for biggest UK album of 2009 |

We sold out of her and Gaga today at Target. I had to refill Lambert, but we had shitloads of Rihanna.

rihanna's first single is flopping and Rated R doesn't sound like GGGB, so I guess she's not selling much. It's not like she ever had huge
first week sales anyway.

I would think that Susan Boyle fans are more apt to go buy the album and not download it illegally.

Are you kidding?
I really like the Rihanna album, but not her first single.  She should've released "So Hard" first.

She's kicking ass. An editor at billboard tweeted earlier that destroyed the competition, and Rihanna and Adam were her closest competition.
