I used the opening from the old thread. Just let me know if anyone wants to add anything different

[DanceWithLife]

Thank you for the new thread!

I love the title you used

[dwindling hope]

I took it from a quote you said! Its seriously so true though! Its like the energizer bunny! It never stops!

[DanceWithLife]

It really IS the energizer bunny!

Oh, then that's why the title seemed familiar

[dwindling hope]

As soon as you said it I said in the thread that I was saving that to be the title. Because nothing truer has ever been spoken

[DARKNESSBALL]

i think that the new album will remind many people of the breakaway stuff. maybe breakaway will boost up again in sales too.

Idol Charts

Kelly's Breakaway was up from 900 to 1,000 for a total of 6.03 million. Her other albums also increased by the same margin; My December sold 400 for a total of 778,000 and Thankful sold 300 for a total of 2.71 million.

[KC and LP Fan]

Dang, I never really knew the margin of difference between all of the record sales. Breakaway is so far above.

[DanceWithLife]

It really is.

And looking at just normal record sales, Breakaway is so far above most pop records these days.

[DanceWithLife]

This past week's sales:

Kelly's Breakaway was up to 1,200 from 1,000, total 6.03 million.

Heard SUBG on the radio this morning. I swear that song has been on the radio so much recently.

Same here!!

It's a nice little flashback to the days where it would literally be on every 15 minutes

[DARKNESSBALL]

thanks for the album sales. it seems like all of her albums have gone up in sales with the wait for the new stuff.

[DanceWithLife]

I just love this video of Kelly discussing how she got the song "Breakaway" on the album, and why she loves it.
