David Cook's Album Debuts OK, Archuleta's Falls Like a Rock

This week David Cook's album debuts at #3 on the Billboard Hot 200, which is actually pretty decent being that he came out on the same day as Beyonce and crap on a stick Nickelback. Cook sold 280,000 albums in the first week. It's not an amazing number, but it's more than Jorbacca sold in her first week. It's also better than David Archuleta's doing. Gaspy's album tumbles down the charts to #11, losing about 64% of last week's sales. Gaspy's fans can't even keep him in the top 10 for 2 weeks. How sad. Watch the album tumble much lower next week. We don't expect Cook's to stay high either unless "Light On" actually takes off (it isn't looking good unless the payola kicks in this week).

I don't know about payola, but Fox is using Light On and David Cook himself to promote AI Season 8.
Has this been done before? I guess it pays off to have Simon Fuller as your personal manager?
Anyway, here it is.
