I'm still holding onto a flicker of hope, you know...for the nostalgia.

@Maura Johnston: @Aleb: Many thanks for the Soudscan "Feedback".

I know, I know...worst Idolator line ever but, again, for the nostalgia...

@HONEYBFLY: Janet has projected first sales of 180k for "Discipline". She will debut at #1. Her career is over, though, I'm afraid...

" Look for Michael Jackson's little sister Janet to enter next week's chart at #1, with her new IDJ album Discipline headed for 180k in sales, give or take, based on one-day sales reports from our retail minions. Universal Motown's neo-soul stalwart Erykah Badu is a lock for #2 (hey, that rhymes) with between 125-135k. "

I used to think I really liked popular music, but I own just 2 of the top 20 (Keyshia and Mary), and I'm horrified at the prospect of even *hearing* anything from the remaining 18.

Ok, *maybe* I'll give Sheryl a listen. Maybe....
