Music Thread #1 For 3/4/10: Sade #1 For The Third Straight Week: GS Boyz Break Up

Not much change at all from the official chart numbers released Yesterday. Despite a "Meh" album, she's number one for the third straight week.

There's no stopping the Sade party as the group's "Soldier of Love" retains the top slot on the Billboard 200 for a third straight week. The album sold 127,000 (down 34%), according to Nielsen SoundScan. In the runner-up slot, Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now" holds down No. 2 position for a third week as well, shifting 118,000 (down 18%).

Despite overall numbers being a little better from last week, they still where poor. The top debut for example

Unlike last week, where the chart was so sleepy you had to scroll all the way down to No. 42 to find the highest debut, this week there are a pair of new entries in the top 15. Johnny Cash's "American VI: Ain't No Grave," bows at No. 3 with 54,000. It's the late legend's final installment in his American Recordings series with producer Rick Rubin. The last one, "American V: A Hundred Highways," debuted at No. 1 with 88,000 in July of 2006.

Cash was the only notable release form last week, so that isn't surprising. Still pretty abysmal though.

And look who made a return to the Top 10, thanks to this week's pathetic album sales

Ke$ha's "Animal" roars back into the top 10 this week, climbing seven rungs to No. 7 with 32,000 (up 7%), likely partially owed to a $7.99 sale tag it carried at Best Buy last week.

She's still struggling to go gold, but she's not stopping!

Lady Antebellum also held down the #2 spot for a 3rd straight week with "Need You Know", just so you know.

In other news, the greatest group ever know to man is breaking up, the GS Boyz. What Earth-shattering news for the nation to take.

If you forget who the GS Boyz are, here is a wonderful reminder for your soul:
