good to see Kanye up there with 2 albums

Locke. 30-03-2013 05:40 PM

Didn't know NSync were so big

Shaun 30-03-2013 05:40 PM

and this is why sales don't matter

Me. I Am Salman 30-03-2013 06:35 PM

Late Registration, Tha Carter III, Graduation, Get Rich or Die Tryin', The Massacre, Confessions, The Marshal Mathers LP are the only albums there I like.

Shaun 30-03-2013 06:36 PM

this is just in the US, btw :pipe:

Benjamin 30-03-2013 06:42 PM

Considering how many people are in the US of course they will have the dominant figures (still **** compared if you work the ratio out from UK to US population to purchase wise). 1 in every 150 people (approx) bought 'No Strings Attached' compared to 1 in every 81 (approx) who bought 'Be Here Now'.

UK top ten:

1 1997 Be Here Now Oasis - 763,735
2 2010 Progress Take That 518,601
3 2005 X&Y Coldplay - 464,471
4 2008 The Circus Take That - 432,490
5 2009 I Dreamed a Dream - Susan Boyle 411,820
6 2003 Life for Rent - Dido 400,351
7 2007 Spirit Leona Lewis - 375,872
8 2005 Intensive Care - Robbie Williams 373,832
9 2006 Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not - Arctic Monkeys 363,735
10 1988 Rattle and Hum - U2 360,000

InOne 30-03-2013 10:05 PM

Me. I Am Salman 30-03-2013 10:26 PM

Marc 03-04-2013 04:10 PM

N'Sync :worship:

Smithy 03-04-2013 04:18 PM

Nice to see the Queen up there, excited for ARTPOP to outsell it's predecessor :pipe:

Marc 03-04-2013 04:20 PM

How many copies are you going to buy then?

Smithy 03-04-2013 04:25 PM

The APP, a physical and maybe a digital if there's bonus tracks, not that it matters considering these are US sales :pipe:

Marc 03-04-2013 04:37 PM

Good thing really, 3 would just be embarrassing

Saph 03-04-2013 05:06 PM

Smithy 03-04-2013 05:25 PM

Application

Quote:

Im excited to tell you all that ARTPOP is going to be a multimedia experience that comes in different forms. The most major way to fully immerse yourself in ARTPOP is through the APP. ARTPOP will be released as an IPAD, iPhone, mobile and computer compatible application (WORLD) that is completely interactive with chats, films for every song, extra music, content, gaga inspired games, fashion updates, magazines, and more still in the works! I will also be able to upload new things to the APP all the time, the same way i upload to twitter and LM.com. You inspired me to create something that communicated with images, because YOU do, YOU communicate with me and each other with .gifs and pictures, and artwork, graphics ALL DAY 24/7/ YOU'RE an ARTPOP generation. Im hoping you will all continue to grow together and stay connected through your creativity. much love.
love, gaga

p.s (start asking for IPADS FOR XMAS!!) its gonna be so fun. but dont worry. it will also be released in the regular physical and digitals which will be unique and different to the app.

Saph 03-04-2013 05:29 PM
