This link claims that Susan Boyle's new album is the second highest debut in terms of record sales ever (right behind Snopp Dogg's "Doggystyle"). But what about the "Marshell Mathers LP?" Didn't that sell something like 1.79 million opening week? Didn't the "Eminem Show" sell slightly less than that opening week? Didn't "The Massacre" sell like 1.11 million opening week? and that's just in hip hop! i'm sure there are other solo artists of other genres who've sold more than Susan Boyle. Why is this article saying this?
