Chart Stalker 6/9/11: Gaga Tumbles, Death Cab Debuts Big
So maybe my headline is a little misleading. After all, Lady Gaga’s Born This Way hangs on for a second week at the top of the Billboard album charts.

So I always feel a sense of pride when an artist or record that I was an early supporter of becomes successful. I can stick my chest out a little bit for being ahead of the curve when it comes to Adele. I actually bought the British chanteuse’s debut album […]
