| yellow = Ruben, orange = Daughtry, red= Scotty |
It appears
last week I forgot that American Idol Season 2 winner, Ruben Studdard, released his new album "Unconditional Love" which debuted at #46 on the
BillBoard 200 album chart. I have added him to my chart as a level little yellow line which is again at #46
this week on the chart. It sold
6,000 copies last week so since it is at #46 again this week is must have sold about the same amount again this week. The two Christian artists who popped back on the chart last week, Colton Dixon and Mandisa, have popped back off, which means we are back to having Daughtry's "Baptized" and Scotty McCreery's "See You Tonight" on the chart to keep Ruben company. Scotty's position on the chart improved for the second straight week, from #160 to #133 to #106. Daughtry's position has been falling the other way, but quite slowly, from #90 to #94 to #99. Over the past three weeks, both their trajectories have been amazingly linear, which means absolutely nothing, but which I find fascinating because I am a math nerd! If the linearity continues, Scotty will be at #79 and Daughtry will be at #103 or #104 (or #105 if his slide goes from 4 to 5 to 6 positions each week). If any of that actually holds true I will be astonished and amazed!
