Daughtry #1 seller of 2007!
Apparently the stats I mentioned earlier about High School Musical 2 taking over Daughtry for the #1 seller of 2007 were either incorrect or premature, because according to Billboard, Daughtry is the most popular album of the year! That is such exciting news!! 2007 has definitely been a great year for Daughtry.
According to Billboard, Daughtry’s self-titled debut album sold 3.2 million copies in 2007.
After Daughtry, the other best selling albums were: Akon’s “Konvicted” which sold 2.7 million; Fergie’s “The Dutchess” with 2.4 million sold; the “Hannah Montana” soundtrack sold 2.5 million; and Carrie Underwood’s “Some Hearts” sold 2.3 million albums.
That’s two American Idol alumni in the top 5, which is pretty impressive. I don’t know what the deal is with High School Musical 2. Maybe the world has righted itself and no longer considers that music so it doesn’t count… but then again the soundtrack to “Hannah Montana” is still on the list so who knows. I’m not trying to be a music snob or anything, it just doesn’t seem right, that’s all.

Now Daughtry had better win that Grammy award for Best Rock album!! They definitely deserve it, and this proves it further… kinda.
And speaking of American Idol, the new season will be starting very soon. I’m not as excited about as I have been in past years but I’m still going to watch it… whether I want to or not. I always get sucked in. I’ve been watching it for so long now, I can’t give up on it now… besides I keep thinking maybe it will get better, like it used to be in the good old days. *sigh*
