Convicted felon Chris Brown's first week sales didn't come close to meeting expectations (Jive shipped over 400,000 units), but they were still far higher than he deserves: 102,000 people purchased his album and it debuts at #7 on the Billboard 200. Nothing can stop Susan Boyle though:
1. Susan Boyle - "I Dreamed a Dream" - 582,000 copies (up 10%; 1.8 million cume)
2. Andrea Bocelli - "My Christmas" - 400,000 (down 7%)
