ANYONE FOR TEA? As we noted yesterday, Warner Bros. rode Michael Bublé and a steady Blake Shelton to first place in weekly new-release share. That was enough to outpoint powerhouse RCA, but measuring overall share plus track-equivalent numbers tells a different story. Of course, having the #2 and #3 singles, which sold a combined 428k (see track sales below), as well as the #2, #3 and #8 albums, totaling 192k, didn’t hurt. The only others to place two singles in the Top 10 were #8 IDJ (Rihanna and Fall Out Boy) and DIY wrecking crew Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, whose TEA tally on the week was about 73k. (5/2a)
