- Adam Lambert led all Idols last week with nearly 54,000 downloads of Whataya Want From Me. Overall, he ranked 20th on Nielsen SoundScan's Top Digital Tracks chart. Right behind him, at No. 21: Kris Allen, selling nearly 53,000 copies of Live Like We're Dying.
As for last week's Idol performances, the group-sing of Michael Bublé's Haven't Met You Yet earned it a 24 percent bump, pushing it past 49,000 for the week. Owl City's Fireflies moved up 11 percent after Lee DeWyze's version, and Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah climbed nearly 400 percent, thanks to Tim Urban.
But none of those came close to the percentage jumps caused by Michael Lynche covering This Woman's Work. Maxwell's version of the song re-entered the chart with a 1,005 percent increase in downloads, and Kate Bush's original got in on the action, too, selling nearly 9,000 copies -- a 1,936 percent increase over the previous week!
