Susan Boyle’s album, “I Dreamed a Dream,” has topped the charts for a second straight week, EW.com reports.  Boyle’s album, released only two weeks ago, has already sold more than 700,000 copies, a surprising feat given the state of the music industry and Boyle’s relative newness.

In some ways, however, the high sales were expected as the album topped Amazon.com’s best-sellers list shortly after it was first announced in November.

The Twitterverse has mixed reviews to Boyle’s album and her seemingly overnight success.  Some tweeps are highly supportive of her debut album while others question whether she deserves the fame:

   Sue_Moe Susan Boyle’s album is pretty much what I expected: too slow of a tempo on some, but a great selection. “Comfort” songs like comfort food.

   scottkeenan Really “Wild Horses” (brilliant) and “You’ll See” are the only good tracks on Susan Boyle’s album. It descends into hymns and musicals.

    DonovanLambrigh Kind of annoyed to hear a review of Susan Boyle CD on Fresh Air. If I wanted to hear about that, I’d listen to commercial media.
