Funny how after the absolute bomb of Eclipse that you still don't understand that albums are promoted BEFORE they are released, not after. If Sony isn't promoting it RIGHT NOW, they are not going to after it's release.

That said, I would think it outsells Eclipse...even with no new songs. It's in other outlets besides Wal-mart, and it's the back catalog and sound that DSB, nostalgia, and Journey themselves, have ensured that people want. It won't be a huge hit, but it will have the 'legs" hat Eclipse didn't.

Eclipse did bomb, but that doesn't mean it sucks. Some of the most sophistocated music hardly sells (ie. classical, jazz) and totally shit like Katy Perry sells. We have a tone deaf, vile, musically illiterate society for the most part.
