'Twilight' soundtrack: How did those vampire tunes get the charts back in their chilly grip?

Entertainment Weekly has a really great article on why the Twilight soundtrack made it to no.3 again after being on the the top 20 for several weeks.


The Twilight soundtrack has been languishing toward the bottom of the Billboard 200's top 20 for some time now -- only to leap back with preternatural speed and agility to No. 3 this week. How'd it swing that? First, a special edition of the soundtrack came out, with bonus goodies including a live clip of that one Iron & Wine song, the music video for Paramore's "Decode," an interview with Paramore singer Hayley Williams, and, er, a "Beyond the Video" clip for Paramore's "Decode." Oh, and Twilight the movie came out on DVD over the weekend. Those two factors combined were enough to persuade 74,000 fans to buy the soundtrack for the first, second, or Nth time, according to Nielsen SoundScan, beating out everyone else last week but Kelly Clarkson (at No. 1 with 90,000) and U2 (at No. 2).
