Ed Sheeran is releasing his new album on 5/5.
We’ve already heard two singles from it. How many 'copies' do you think it will sell in its first week? |

For comparison, first week sales of '=':
94,527 physical sales, 19,294 downloads, 25,286 streaming Considering that he can sell 24k cd singles (like he did with Eyes Open), 50k in sales alone is a no brainer. This post has been edited by Sour Candy: 23rd April 2023, 05:44 AM |

Agreed, yes sales have collapsed even further be he’s still one of the big sellers. |

I actually disagree
it's not hard to sell 99p Cd singles how many vinyls did he sell from Equals on week 1? 11k, which is very very very little that's the really measure of how well he sells physicals, not his CD singles |

So you think he'd drop from 94k below 50k in physical sales? That'd be a huge collapse if so.

72K maybe.
Its going to be a huge drop in my opinion, from a 10 week #1 to a 1 week one and a second single that doesn't even debut top 40 on spotify! |

I'm thinking 61-75k this time, strong sales but a downhill slide for Ed. |

I went with 46k - 60k but I could see 61k - 75k as well.
