iTunes changed the rules so that preorders are not charting twice, once at pre-order and once at release. It only effects first week position at iTunes on release week. iTunes visibility (being on that top 10 list under singles on the front page) is everything. Sales, be they pre-order or not are all counted as first week sales. Ahh, that makes sense, thanks so much, Geezlouise, for clarifying that. Maybe a lot of fans were wiser (and playing closer attention) than I was and pre-ordered on non-iTunes platforms, saving iTunes for release week. But at least, even if we pre-ordered on iTunes, we're still good for Billboard purposes. It'll be interesting to see how well TOH does "naturally," so to speak, on iTunes. A real test of what Adam's increased radio exposure has done for him (plus Fallon, GMA, and other goodies yet to come). ETA: and thanks so much, Rihannsu, too. That's all much clearer to me now. Heh heh I'm embarrassed to admit that my fuzzy memory of the pre-order change in rules was making me feel a little guilty and anxious, but seems all's well! Does the idea of canceling the iTunes pre-order now and ordering it again next week make sense? (I assume there is a way to cancel on iTunes...)

Poor Adam, no amount of wishing or explaining is going to make that not a Moo. LOL. I have grown fond of the moo. When he sings this song live, I predict he will make great faces ... especially when all the stan concert-goers yell, "MOOOO". It is going to be fun. It's funny, my 20-something son listened to the album last night and when I asked him what he thought of the Moo after he listened to ALN, he said, "What moo?" So maybe it is not writ in stone. Playing catch up so this may be obsolete at this point ... Dear Adam, who cares if it's a moo or a yeah. It's fun and has become one of my (and I'm not alone) favorite parts of a favorite song. #GoWithIt #LoveTheMoo there is no disrespect to him and I still find it hilarious that none of the production geniuses who worked on this album heard that it didn't sound remotely like "yeah". Just goes to show different people hear different things.

Isn't that hard to do since we got songs for buying.. or am I getting confused ..I'm not playing with cancelling..
