Adam and Bonjovi fan here. Bonjovi’s new cd “The Circle” went for sale also at $3.99. I know this because I got an email notice from Amazon but it was only good for a few days. So, it’s not strange if Amazon offered it too for Adam’s cd.

Love Adam’s album!!! It’s playing on repeat right now on my Ipod. Just love it!!!

During the season, I always thought Adam was more talented than Kris. But — I generally really liked all of Kris’s performances and only some of Adam’s. I fully expected to prefer Kris’s alum to Adam’s. I don’t.

Wow, this is my favorite American album in ages! I really, really like “A Loaded Smile”. “Sleepwalker” is probably my second fave, followed by “Soaked”. But I’m very excited about the whole album.

I picked up a copy of FYE at Best Buy this afternoon (the sticker price was $13.99, but a sign said $9.99). There were 7 copies left after I got mine, but a lot of open space in two different areas where Adam CDs had been. A clerk was restocking and I mentioned that FYE copies were about gone. He said he knew, but he didn’t have more to put out. Seems they’ve been selling well at that particular BB.

If you want to buy on Amazon, you can use the code “MP34FREE” and get $3 off your total…making the album only 99 cents.

Adamlover,
i also bought both the Deluxe AO edition, and the itunes deluxe, the deluxe AO edition bonus tracks are not on the CD you have to download them from the AO site – make sure you click “save” not open when downloading – they will show up in your computer documents then you can click and itunes will open them, I found them under “recently added” playlist, if you still have your email notice they sent with the order number, just click on that and it should take you to the downloads, however, I note that the one supposed available for dl today isn’t there, i emailed the sony support and asked them about it, still waiting for reply, they did acknowledge the email and say within 24hrs i should receive answer. Somehow, my deluxe itunes edition downloaded twice – sure i’ll be charged for that, oh, well ~I haven’t received my Deluxe AO edition in the mail yet. Love DTRH

Well, #7 and #10 is pretty darn good so far. It is a very tough week. Really curious to see Susan Boyle’s numbers.

And, the deluxe albums sold on his website will count in first weeks’s sales right?

And no, before anyone asks, I don’t believe this kind of price cut has been done for any high-profile Idol releases in the past. I think I remember Melinda Doolittle’s album selling for $5.99 at Amazon MP3 at one point (I remember because I bought it), but none others that I recall.

DAUGHTRY in 2006. I seem to recall there was a $6.99 Best Buy special the weekend of Black Friday that year. I don’t think it’s that unusual for a new release, even for Idols. This works to Adam’s advantage if the opening week numbers look healthier. I don’t think it’s necessarily healthy for the bottom line over the long term though.

Incidentally, when I purchased Kris Allen’s CD from Walmart last week, it was marked $13.98 but I was charged $9.98. Not complaining, but I wonder why they didn’t advertise that price publicly (or maybe they did and I missed it??).

tammyinohio: For those wanting to get the physical CD, Best Buy has it for $9.99 compared to Walmart’s price of I think $13.96 or something like that.

Thanks, Tammy. I’ll shop at Best Buy because I’ll get 10 copies of FYE for my sister’s graduation as party favours for her friends. They love Lady Gaga. Hope they’ll like Adam. Then I’ll get 10 more copies to take home for x-mas and New Year gifts for friends.

I don’t know if my pre-order from Amazon will arrive before December 6th. I also ordered The Ten Commanments- DVD Musical and other artists’ CDs. I can buy a lot of FYE cds because I’m not lucky enough to get to go to Adam’s concerts. So my concert money goes to spreading his music to music lovers.

I’m listening to Down the Rabbit Hole right now. Can’t say anything about it yet. Will listen to it a few more times.

AMA wasn’t televised here so I only saw Adam’s performance on YouTube. It wasn’t his best performance and not best vocals. I avoided reading pages of comments (no time and just a glance it was not nice.)
I don’t have to watch the video to enjoy his beautiful music.

Adam, hang in there, sweetheart. I love you.
You’ve been struggling in this business for quite sometime. You’ve had ups and downs. You will be fine. I have faith in you. You have your family, friends, and fans who will support and appreciate you through thick and thin.
Before I sign off:
Adam, my love, What a Gutsy Performance You Gave Me !!!

If other digital albums are being sold at $3.99 like Beyonce’s, not sure what the fuss is about, unless of course a fuss wants to be made.

Most people who really like Adam will still buy the ITUNES and AO versions because of the bonus tracks.

Most of the FYE reviews have been great. Kris also put out a solid album in a different genre. Some folks are going to like that album better. Good for both guys for making solid debut albums.

Nicely said!

I stayed up late to get the otunes deluxe download and have been listening to it whenever I can sneak a moment at work, it sounds amazing on headphones and at the moment I’m absolutely LOVING ‘A Loaded Smile’. Thank you Adam for a great album

I don’t know what the hell is wrong with the Mexican iTunes Store. FYE deluxe edition was available for pre-order, but today it completely disappeared, and it only shows the regular version, still on pre-order!
