Pop Idol Will Young To Have Record Breaking Sales

Pop Idol winner Will Young is set to have the fastest-selling debut UK single, smashing the record held by Hear’Say. He’s reportedly gotten 400,000 copies of ‘Evergreen/Anything’ sold since the track’s release on Monday. Simon Dornan, PR and Events manager for Virgin Megastore, said, “Will Young has sold a national total of 385,000 copies on day one of release. When you consider that Hear’Say sold 550,000 in the whole week it’s nothing short of a truly awesome phenomena.”
