Well from the article...it looks like #2 & #3 are distant from #1, but that Paul should finish in #3 position- which is no small thing in this era. How long he´ll be able to sustain any momentum is another thing altogether.
I think this will do better than any album since 1990, but how much better is the question.
The bottom line is it´s a brilliant masterpiece, and some nice sales would be icing on the cake...& just desserts as well.

The biggest reason for the high chart position is of course that many young people don´t buy any albums anymmore. This has a relatively positive effect on Old-timers like Paul Simon, Neil Diamond, whose fans are still more into buying a physical disc then young people are.

If I calculate correctly, 1 person out of 5000 bought the album in the U.S. the first week!
