So I am going to get paddled by Patti but couldn't help it. Took a peek at the building chart last updated at 6 AM and GT popped back to #40 with the Rhianna/McCartney collaboration dropping below. I know. I know. It is not reliable but I liked the number this time :D

According to the prevailing wisdom the sales should show an increase once we get over the 10 Mil mark on CHR. So, I am not worried yet, as I think the radio is doing fine so far. Ghost Town is at #58 on iTunes Pop USA right now. I think that's better than it's been doing for awhile. Does anyone know for sure if that's an increase in sales? musicchartfeeds.com/itunes-pop-charts/ As Q3 said yesterday, iTunes is bloated with the Voice singles and it is actually doing well to hold its own against that. When they are gone he will probably bounce up!

Debuting at #1 in album sales this week: 1. PITCH PERFECT 2 SOUNDTRACK UME 90,920 Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #7 in Music At #2 and way down in sales: 2. MUMFORD & SONS WILDER MIND GLASSNOTE 50,301. -80% Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #26 in Music I hate to be a Debbie Downer but THIS concerns me: The Original High (Deluxe)(Explicit) Adam Lambert (Artist) Format: Audio CD Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #145 in Music It shouldn't concern you at all. Amazon was charging too much for it & Adam's team was pushing iTunes and AO. Amazon has no prerelease singles either. I imagine, Adam will have more physical CD purchases too, than most artists do.

I'm going to agree with Patti that the HDD building chart is useless and since we are trying to deal with real numbers that can be tracked then it's not relevant for this thread. If you can figure out spin numbers etc from it then that would be something else but I'm not seeing it.

Any expert insights into why the Top 40 chart has 33 of 50 songs with negative bullets today? 9 of the Top 10!! So weird!!
