Digital sales roundup: "My Life Would Suck Without You" #9 (3/6/09)

Not as many Idol-related tracks as usual had their full sales made public this week, but the two that did on Billboard's Hot Digital Songs chart were certainly interesting.

Kelly Clarkson's monster hit "My Life Would Suck Without You" kept chugging away, selling an additional 102.2k downloads for the week. It has yet to slip below the 100k threshhold since its release in mid-January and now boasts a total of 1.147 million. The single slipped only 2% in sales and fell just one spot to #9. Expect a healthy increase in next week's numbers thanks to Kelly's album release and a bunch of promo events and performances for the single this week.

The only other Idol alum to have her full numbers released this week was Brooke White, whose debut single "Hold Up My Heart" took an expected 73% plunge in sales accompanied by a 76-spot collapse to #103. It sold 14k for the week, totaling 65.2k after just two weeks.
