A very strong second week is expected in the US, Top 15, it seems that many pre-orders are being shipped just this week, a shame that all those copies couldn't be shipped the first week to get that #1. On the other hand, the album will not collapse so quickly, as we can see Blink-182 will fall from #1 to who knows where...

Quotejahisnotdead Quotestrat72 What I'm amazed by is how selling 5000 copies in The UK gets you in the top ten these days. I can't believe Taylor Swift's numbers. I knew she was popular, but damn... You should wait until the US numbers are released, over 1.6 million during the first week are expected.

The whole album sounds modern yet nostalgic at the same time, the trilogy Live By the Sword / Driving Me Too Hard / Tell Me Straight is emotional in every level, so familiar, like a definitive goodbye from an old friend. Whole Wide World may be the best song on the album, killer tune, wow.
