The (estimated) first week sales of Ozzy's SCREAM look to be less than half of the opening week sales for BLACK RAIN. Dare I hope to look forward to another rant from Sharon Osbourne blaming downloaders for an Ozzy album failure?

According to Hits Daily Double, the companion web site of music industry tip sheet HITS, OZZY OSBOURNE's new album, "Scream", is on track — based on one-day sales reports — to sell between 65,000 and 70,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release.

Osbourne's last album, "Black Rain", opened with 152,000 units back in May 2007 to debut at No. 3 on The Billboard 200 chart. That number was in line with the 153,000 first-week tally registered by 2001's "Down to Earth", which entered the Billboard chart at No. 4.
