Hits Daily Double’s forecasts reveal that “Glee: The Power of Madonna,” the EP soundtrack release to accompany Tueday’s Madonna-themed episode of the musical comedy, will cleanly top next week’s album sales chart.<\/p>\n
Based on HDD’s extensions from one-day sales, the “Glee” EP is pacing for about 100-120,000, which should give it the victory over AC\/DC’s “Iron Man 2” soundtrack (80-100,000). Though the “Glee” release will likely be down in opening week sales from the last soundtrack–“Volume 2”–the figure is still impressive given the record’s length (seven tracks plus a bonus) and limitation to one artist’s catalog.<\/p>\n
Elsewhere, Circa Survive’s “Blue Sky Noise” should be good for about 30-35,000 copies, a figure similar to the forecast for Sevendust’s “Cold Day Memory.”<\/p>\n
Jimmy Buffett’s “encores” will also open with 30-35,000, besting the 18-22,000 for Cypress Hill’s “Rise Up.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n
