Watch a part of Chasing Pirates's music video here!
Also, I think that the cover of "The Fall" is kind of odd... I don't really like it. Don't you think it's weird? Unlike Norahs previous covers, which were vague and stunning.  Of course this is merely my opinion!

i absolutely adore the cover of "Not Too Late", red background was a clever idea. This one does not look like cover but most likely like calendar-theme.
BTW, any scheduled promotion?

I love it too. Not Too Late cover and booklet images are stunning. Well in overall it's a great album!
promotion? AyuM posted this: | Quote: | | Norah will be heavily promoting the album.

lovely covers!
and good that she's doin' heavy promo, i hope this album goes at least 2x Platinum, the new single is a little bit different from what we're used to hear from her, but it's also a great song!

I hope she will return at her impressive success with this new opus. In any case, the promo is very impressive and it's already a good point !

Who else is realeasing new material that week? depending on the competition she could achieve a 4th consecutive #1 album... although sales get smaller with every new album.. kinda reminds me of Alanis Morissette's pattern

The same week, there are regardless Leona Lewis, OneRepublic and Kris Allen !  But I think she is able to have the #1 position yes, with 300-350k.

Ah okay. Definitely an enormous competition between at least three albums who can sell +300k.

Yes. And 2,3 million at the total. And 320k for the precedent in 2003.

I predict:
#1: Norah Jones = 350,000 - 400,000
#2: John Mayer = 250,000 - 300,000
#3 or #4: Leona Lewis = 130,000 - 180,000
#4 or #3: OneRepublic = 130,000 - 180,000
#5: Kris Allen = 60,000 - 120,000
The competition is extremely stiff, but I honestly believe that Norah will not experience any problem in hitting the top spot.

10,526,511 for Come Away With Me, this is according to the Top Catalog Chart that was dated 9/19
Does anybody have the most current soundscan stats for Feels Like Home? Not Too Late?
I want your love and I want your revenge

Leona's album will prevent it from the top.

i agree with No.3-6 but i think Norah will open with 250-300k and John with 250k but never underestimate the power of november  personally i would be happy with Leona at the top but with Norah and John she had really low chance of hitting No.1 spot especially with no success of the first single on radios

Hadn't checked the release dates - but that would be a shame. However that doesn't alter my opinion that it *deserves* to be #1...
