Billboard tracks holiday album sales for several weeks during the holiday season. For the week of January 9, 2010, David Archuleta’s Christmas from the Heart is at number 9. With only 11 weeks on the chart, that’s remarkable. I hope that David’s holiday album will have the longevity of Josh Groban’s Noël. Released in October 2007, Noël continues to be popular, maintaining the high position this week of #4.

This spring, summer, and autumn should you find yourself humming “Riu Riu Chiu,” “Pat-a-Pan,” or “Melodies of Christmas,” it might be time to make another purchase and keep David’s debut album sales climbing. Remember, recording artists don’t make a holiday album very often. If we fans of David continue to buy it, by Christmas 2010 Christmas from the Heart will be a holiday favorite with an even bigger audience.
