Jason Aldean's Night Train enters The Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 409K. But it's being overshadowed by Taylor Swift's Red, which was just released on Monday and won't chart for another week. Swift's album is on track to sell 1.1 million to 1.2 million in its first week. Remarkably, the album will sell more copies in its first week than the next two first-week sales leaders of 2012 combined. They are Mumford & Sons' Babel, which sold 600K in its first week last month, and Night Train.

Adele's "Skyfall" enters this week's Hot 100 at #8. The elegant ballad is the seventh (let's say 007th) opening-titles song from a James Bond movie to reach the top 10. It's the first to crack the top 10 since Madonna's "Die Another Day" 10 years ago. It's also the first to debut in the top 10.

Even casual fans know that opening-titles sequences are often the best part of Bond movies. They're sexy and clever. The opening songs, too, have been generally good, and have covered a broad range of pop and rock styles.

Thirteen opening-titles songs from "official" Bond movies (those produced by Eon Productions, the company founded by Albert R. "Cubby" Broccoli and Harry Saltzman) have reached the Hot 100. Another has "bubbled under" the chart. Yet another failed to register on the pop chart, but cracked the R&B and adult contemporary charts.

Here are those 15 songs, listed in order of chart impact. Adele's song may continue to move up this list. Stay tuned.

This is pitiful: Just three albums have topped the 1 million mark in U.S. sales so far this year. But the tally will be more like 12 before the year ends, which would nearly equal the tally of 13 in each of the last two years. The three albums that have sold 1 million or more copies already this year are Adele's sophomore album, 21 (4,027,000); One Direction's debut album, Up All Night (1,254,000) and Lionel Richie's surprise comeback hit, Tuskegee (1,020,000).

Four albums that have already been released will probably make it over the 1 million threshold before the year is out. They are Justin Bieber's Believe (which has sold 902K copies so far this year), Carrie Underwood's Blown Away (823K), Luke Bryan's 2011 release Tailgates & Tanlines (802K) and Mumford & Sons' Babel, which sold 600K this week and will probably sell another 155K next week.

Maroon 5's "One More Night" tops the Hot 100 for the third straight week, holding off PSY's novelty smash "Gangnam Style," which holds at #2 for the second week. But it was close. In fact, you could borrow the equine imagery of PSY's video and say it was "a real horserace." Billboard's Gary Trust reports that fewer than 500 overall chart points separated the two songs, down from about 3,000 points last week. Trust further notes that was the closest race for #1 since the week ending Feb. 5, when Kelly Clarkson's "Stronger (What Doesn't Kiss You)" dislodged Adele's "Set Fire To The Rain."
