Susan Boyle's debut album "I Dreamed a Dream" makes it two weeks at the top of the Billboard 200, selling another 527,000 copies, to bring its grand total to 1.23 million in just two weeks.
WOW! This is a huge feat, considering that already makes Boyle's CD the 10th best-selling album of the year!
The only top 10 debut this week is from R&B veteran R.Kelly, whose "Untitled" comes in at #4 with 114,000. Kelly has been pretty low key the last couple of years, and this album has not produced a hit single yet so expect a fairly steep drop next week!
Here is a rundown of this week's top 10 best-selling albums:
1. Susan Boyle "I Dreamed a Dream" (527,000)
2. Andrea Bocelli "My Christmas" (428,000)
3. Taylor Swift "Fearless" (127,000)
4. R. Kelly "Untitled" (114,000)
5. Lady Gaga "The Fame" (84,000)
6. Carrie Underwood "Play On" (81,000)
7. Norah Jones "The Fall" (80,000)
8. Michael Jackson "This is It" (75,000)
9. New Moon Soundtrack (72,000)
10. Michael Buble "Crazy Love" (72,000)

I am surprised and impressed by how many good bands are on the New Moon soundtrack. That's a solid cd and I'm shocked that they all agreed to write music for such a crappy but widly popular movie.
