Taylor Swift's '1989' May Sell 400,000 in Second Week

Billboard (November 7th, 2014):

"Taylor Swift's monster 1989 album is so big, it seems that the music business decided to mostly avoid releasing any albums that would have to compete with its second week on sale. Why? Industry sources suggest 1989 may sell 400,000 copies in its sophomore frame (ending Nov. 9) -- and easily give it a second week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. (That would also give the album the second-largest sales week of the year, behind only its own debut with 1.287 million, according to Nielsen SoundScan.)

1989's second-week total will be more than 300,000 copies ahead of the likely No. 2 album, which could be the Now 52 compilation, with maybe 60,000 to 70,000 sold in its own second week.

The highest new entry on next week's chart will likely be Calvin Harris' Motion, which might sell around 30,000 to 35,000. It could be one of only two debuts in the top 10 of the chart, joined by Bette Midler's tribute to girl groups, It's the Girls, with perhaps 20,000 to 25,000."

I want to believe in a long life for good "1989" sales. Previous 2 albums had the epic start in first 3 months, but fell very fast.

2nd week sales :
"Speak Now" - 319.701
"Red" - 344.249

Of course they fell hard... Did you really expect her to sell 800k in her second week?
The fact that it sold over 300k in her second week is very impressive, some of the popgirls are can't even manage that in their first week

I wrote "fell hard" after 3 months of success. After first 10 weeks "Red" sold 3.107.249 copies, more than any another her album.
Her first two albums didn't sell very much in first weeks, but have a very long life in charts. "Fearless" sales are near with 7 millions now, and "Taylor Swift" sold more then 5,4 millions.
