Noting that Britain’s Got Talent winner-turned-America’s-sweetheart Susan Boyle has found that her album just leaked might be a bit irrelevant. After all, judging by the stealth pre-order sales for I Dreamed A Dream, there probably isn’t anyone left who hasn’t already paid for the set of standards.

CNN reported this morning that I Dreamed A Dream has now become the most pre-ordered CD in the history of Amazon.com. (Crikey! How did this happen, Kris Allen?)

Columbia Records issued a statement saying, “One of the things that is so unique about Susan Boyle is her ability to touch people around the world.” Naughty!

I Dreamed A Dream will be officially released next week. Clips of the songs have been available on iTunes for a couple weeks now, and there are really no revelatory surprises lying in wait on the full album. What you’ve already heard, vocally, in the months since Susan Boyle became a headline-grabbing reality show contestant is what you get—and that’s not a bad thing.

At any rate, we may just find that Boyle’s sales record could coincide with her dual accomplishment of having the least illegally-downloaded album in history. Then again, can Susan Boyle’s fans really be trusted to hold out till Monday?

Speaking of which, here’s “Manic Monday”:
