I saw people fanning themselves with copies of the Spice Girls CD at Victoria’s Secret when it first came out. No lie.

Alicia is in second place with this week’s numbers and Daughtry in third place with 65,398 copies sold exactly one year ago.

@GovernmentNames: the "Dreamgirls" soundtrack last year scanned 60,064, the lowest sales week for a #1 album.

So what’s the record for the lowest SoundScan #1 sales now? I remember the Dreamgirls broke the record with 66k last year, but has someone else already gone lower than 61k since then?

Can 2,725,935 (#'s as of last week) Alicia fans be wrong?

I'm so glad Raheem DeVaughn's album is Top 5. Too bad it's not on top though, since it's a million times better, classier and more original than "As I Am".
