'2012' soundtrack shooting up Amazon thanks to Adam Lambert's fans

It looks like Adam Lambert's fans are in it to win it. Considering news of Adam's song, "Time For Miracles," which will be featured on the upcoming soundtrack of Roland Emmerich's disaster film 2012, has been circulating for a while, it was no surprise the soundtrack's sales skyrocketed yesterday after being placed on Amazon.com for pre-order.

It is already #49 at the moment, marking two Adam-related albums in the Top 50 (Adam's upcoming studio album has been sitting at #1 for days). This kind of activity is eerily similar to the fan activity seen by Clay Aiken's fan base following his narrow loss to Ruben Studdard back in 2003. Moreover, these early indicators are giving good credit to the idea that first week sales of Adam's album will be monstrous. Is it possible that this soundtrack, which releases Tues., Nov. 10, could possibly debut at #1 and Adam's album follows suit two weeks later? Probably not, since most fans will opt to download the single via iTunes if it's available, but it could happen.

Additionally, "Miracles" will reportedly play during the end credits, and if it is the first song to play during the credits, it can be nominated for an Academy Award. Not sure it will be worthy of a nomination considering no one has heard it yet, but that's just something to keep in mind.

Whether or not Adam's fans will be able to sustain consistent sales after a huge opening is another question. But as for now, all systems are a go.
