Maybe of she tried something different more people would buy it. Same old boring songs. Pink is going to hit a wall soon too in terms of sales.

Well, I agree on that point. She's talented but she's being doing the same for quite a while now. At least Girl On Fire sounds better than Doesn't Mean Anything, that one was dire, what a dull and uninspired song.

Knocking Rihanna off her throne, Alicia Keys has scored her fifth No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart with "Girl on Fire."

Her fifth studio album sold 159,000 copies, which, though it was the lowest opening week of sales for her career, was enough to stave off Taylor Swift and Rod Stewart's albums for the top spot.

wow really?

She was selling that in a day during the peak of her career

Alicia Keys US Opening History

The Diary of Alicia Keys - 618,000
As I Am - 742,000
The Element of Freedom - 417,000
