Not going to worry about Pop adds for this week until end of day, tomorrow. With only 30% there is a lot to go. Even Kelly is not getting Pop adds for her new song. You'd think after the success of Stronger, she'd be one of those "automatic" people, like Katy. But nope! I know Darkside isn't a great song (I am a Kelly fan, so I am not dissing her.) But still, being a good song has never been a criteria. DS got 18 HAC adds today. It's a grower like MKIA and more HAC than Pop. Give it time, it will end up doing very well on both charts. Why would you expect DS to get the same type of adds a KP song gets? Kelly hasn't had six #1s off of this album like Katy had off of hers, she has only had one. KP is a special snowflake!

ohh.. btw.. Adam's prediction 11 16 ADAM LAMBERT 19/RCA 6,088 TRESPASSING That's not the prediction, that's HDD current sales chart with 54% of the retailers (not total sales) reporting. Ohh Good!! So it means his sales can be 7500-10k this week?? 50% from last week?

No, it means that 54% of the retailers have reported. Not iTunes or Amazon, I believe as well as some Walmart sales, which are usually reported the 2nd day. You can not extrapolate from this number.

IDK, I just would expect her to get Pop adds faster because Stronger was #1 for many weeks and has sold well past 2 million. Stronger had over 100 adds before its adds date. I wouldn't expect Darkside to have that much, but I would expect more than 2.

The video has been out for a week and really doesn't seem to be helping sales. That seems premature given that it has yet to air on VH1. I think most people watch videos online now, especially considering VH1 and MTV primarily play music vids during overnights. Has anyone seen the IHeartRadio performances on any Clear Channel site? The only place I've seen it is on You Tube and those were fan vids. Last time they were posted fairly quickly.

I know it doesn't make sense, but I do think radio PD's notice what a song is doing on iTunes. And they notice when a song can't crack the top 100.
For the life of me, I can't see what was accomplished with the 18-city radio tour. And that is really sad.
How is the song doing internationally? Or is it too soon to tell? I'm seriously ready to throw in the towel when it comes to the US.
eta---The iHeart radio videos were posted right away last time...

VH1 Countdown does help. You could see BTIKM sales start rising on iTunes Saturday morning and on Tuesday, too.

Just out of curiosity, has Bruno ever tweeted anything about NCOE since it was released? (not that he has to)

(not that he has to) He did tweet out a youtube of one of the first aucostic performances Adam did for one of the radio visits. It was before the song was released to itunes. But yea, would it have killed him to tweet out support for the song when it was released to itunes after all the support Adam has shown him on twitter?

Yeah, I was disappointed that Bruno didn't do more. In fact, when he tweeted about the youtube of the one of the first acoustic performances, did he even say anything positive about it? Maybe I am just so used to Nile who always has something glowing to say about Adam.
