Updated to add some chart stats for the week, courtesy of our friend Buckyflowers:

According to Ken Barnes at USA Today's Idol Chatter, Bucky Covington, the CD, sold 1,400 copies this week (up from 1,300 last week) for a total of 331,000 total; and "It's Good to Be Us" remains at a bulleted #14 on the Radio & Records country singles chart for the second straight week. Many thanks to Buckyflowers for the update!

And a reminder from the very kind Dixie--"It's Good to Be Us" faces yet another CMT Power Picks challenge tomorrow during the first half of the show. We'll post a note about it again in the morning--hope to see you there at 11 a.m. ET on Thursday!
