Is Dido definatley releasing a new album this year then?

 

It´s not official.

 

They always say she is releasing an album at the end of the year, every year... it´s just a blind shot.

I think Coldplay will end up with it. In much less space of time, they have sold almost 800k, but they still have more singles to come. Lost will be a huge hit when it´s released, but I can´t see Duffy having more big hits from now on... By the Christmas time, Coldplay will have hits on the radio that will lift their sales to the roof. Dido is a chance too. Life For Rent was the quickest album EVER to make the 2 million mark in UK sales. She is not an ordinary act, she is one that can sell a ridiculously high amount of copies in a relatively short time.

I think Duffy's sales will slow later in the year, unless the album is re-released. Stepping stone wont produce the same level of commercial success as the 2 previous singles but should help the album hang around for a bit longer. I'd predict it will be in the top3 best selling albums at the end of the year but not sure if it will have the momentum to hang on at the top as the best selling album. Coldplay is likely to continue selling well and with new releases immiment from Take That & Dido in the final quarter, it could end up a tight battle.
