When the October 2-8 tracking week reached its conclusion, two hit songs were within striking distance of the 900,000 US sales mark.

Given its current sales pace, it has already crossed the 900,000 mark on a real-time basis. Its total for the complete October 9-15 tracking week will officially push it past that mark.
According to Nielsen Music, Justin Bieber’s “What Do You Mean?” sold 80,163 copies during the October 2-8 tracking period. That brought its cumulative sales total to 893,281.
