I hate to say it, but I've never seen a well established star do so badly before. I can't think of the last time a once massive star sold SO little?!

This will barely do 50k worldwide in the end...

That could actually be a good thing. Most people won't even know she's had an album out so she won't be considered a flop.

Less relevent than Alanis, poor Nelly laugh.gif

Incurring such a huge flop can only make her bounce back better in the future is all we can hope for, that said, UK wise her greatest hits flopped and now this so its almost like she has been totally forgotten about. However she managed a top 20 single which is something Madonna did not manage with her last era so there is hope for the future, but i think this era is just dead for her now.

Parking Lot is the single that might save it she just needs to promote it.....

Waiting for the Night is the next European single. Going to German radio soon. Not that it will do anything at all in the UK of course.

Gutted at how badly this album has done, I absolutely love it! The three singles, High Life, Bucket List, The Most Beautiful Thing, Waiting For The Night and Be OK are all varying shades of excellent. It's almost up there with Loose for me quality wise. Granted it's not as commerical by a long stretch but it didn't deserve such little success.

Despite this album and whole campaign being a complete mess. There are some really good gems on this album. She could have made a very solid ten track album from what's on there. It's a shame! I'm LOVING 'Hold Up', probably my favourite currently!

Madonna may not have got a Top 20 single but she got a #1 album instead - Im sure Nelly would have prefered that anyday over a Top 20 underperforming single! laugh.gif

It has a real classic sound to it, a sound that’s really authentic, super soulful,” says Nelly.
