No way she will ever, ever have a Platinum album again. Fleetwood Mac couldn't even hit that target last time around with Say You Will. And Fleetwood Mac's efforts have always outsold Stevie's. I honestly think selling 300,000 copies this time around would be a triumph for her at this point in the game. I very much doubt she'll go Gold solo again either. Considering the state of the record biz currently, I don't think that's a bad thing for a veteran artist, though. I can't see her selling more than 200,000 copies of IYD. Time shall tell, though!

Have you seen the reviews so far for this album? They're the best reviews of her career. Rolling Stone was practically gushing over her (for Rolling Stone... they're all about back handed compliments and murky praise after all). Other publications are calling this her best album of her career, and are giving her 4 out of 4 stars, etc. THIS is Stevie's turn in the sun for critical acclaim, and hopefully awards.
