Pretty amazing that the album got to number 3 considering that it was on sale on THURSDAY and he had only 2 days to take up the charts. Fantastic news!  Hopefully it's No 1 next week, after a full week or so of release. Interesting: even after only 3 days, Damien has done better in his first week on the album chart than Kate DeRaugo last year(and she had a full 7 days of CD sales to count). |

#3 is fantastic given his competition and how long he had to sell them! I think he should be #2 though - I don't mind him being behind U2 because, well, they're awesome, but WTF is with the #1 album?

Hopefully that 12th Man crap is a one week wonder, and quickly sinks from No 1. It'll probably only be Cricket nuts and teenage boys who bought it.  A couple of additional facts: "The Winner's Journey" has already been awarded a Platium certification(no doubt on orders to stores). And....."Night Of My Life" moved to No 1 on the Digital Tracks Sales chart. Terrific! |

And on top of that every song from idol was previously available as a free download so its quite amazing that so many people bought the CD so quick. Amazing in a good way, thankfully. |

Though I guess I am proven wrong ;D. Gonna watch the DVD soonnnn.... |

Anyway, the 12th Man isn't music and therefore to only be beaten by U2! OMG, what an honour, no one could ever be less than thrilled about that |
