Does anyone have any more up to date estimates?

 

Music Week provided 4 totals, otherwise, these are her End of Year estimate figures. A few of them are probably inaccurate, due to the fact that some of the singles were released towards the end of the year (such as Waiting For Tonight, I'm Real, Jenny From The Block).

 

341,154 - If You Had My Love (#4, 1999)

224,786 - Get Right (#1, 2005)

213,756 - Love Don't Cost A Thing (#1, 2001)

185,000 - Waiting For Tonight (#5, 1999)

169,000 - All I Have (#2, 2003)

158,000 - Ain't It Funny [Remix] (#4, 2002)

153,000 - I'm Real (#4, 2001)

138,000 - Play (#3, 2001)

138,000 - I'm Gonna Be Alright (#3, 2002)

133,179 - On The Floor (#1, 2011)

129,000 - Control Myself (#2, 2006)

114,000 - Ain't It Funny (#3, 2001)

102,000 - Jenny From The Block (#3, 2002)

80,000 - Baby I Love U (#3, 2004)

55,000 - Feelin' So Good (#15, 2000)

50,000 - Hold You Down (#6, 2005)

48,000 - Do It Well (#11, 2007)

35,000 - I'm Glad (#11, 2003)

15,000 - Hold It Don't Drop It (#72, 2008)

 

(Feelin' So Good, I'm Glad & Hold It Don't Drop It didn't feature in any End of Year lists, they're just my guesses).

On the floor will probably end up as her biggest hit.

Only 3 singles over 200k? And I'm Glad only 35k :drama:

Wow, her sales have been low. I thought JOTB was one of her biggest hits aswell so I am suprised it has only just passed 100k :o

LOL. 'On the Floor' has sold more than half of her singles, in ONE WEEK! It's smack bang in the middle! LOL. It'll no doubt be her biggest seller. I'll be shocked if it doesn't end up selling 400k at LEAST.

Sales were REALLY low in general when she was big in the early 00s, they weren't like they are now. Selling over 100k of a single in total was a very solid achievement.

 

Although on the flipside, album sales were a lot better than they are now so she made up for it with 3 solid selling albums.

For some reason, I always thought that the I'm Real remix was released here in 2002 and also reached #4, but I must have got it mixed up with Ain't It Funny as it never came out at all here. I remember always seeing it on the music channels, I wonder why they decided to ignore it for the UK market :o

It was included on the CD2 of 'I'm Real' though, in place of the album version. CD1 had the normal album version.

169,000 - All I Have (#2, 2003)

102,000 - Jenny From The Block (#3, 2002)

 

:drama: sales are very low

Sales were just as big back then, the difference is songs went 3-8-15-22-27-34-out instead of 3-4-4-5-7-6-8-11-13-18-20-26-28-29-33-35-37-37-40-out.

 

2000, 2001 and 2002 had good sales, it all went crashing down in 2003.

03-08-11-18-24-18-20-29-47-54-55-54-67-OUT [Jenny From The Block]

 

The 102,000 is from the first 6 weeks, 03-08-11-18-24-18. After that was in 2003, sales unknown.

02-06-07-08-08-10-17-17-22-31-34-48-75-OUT [All I Have]

 

That single was her longest running single in the Top 10, but as Euphorique said, sales crashed in 2003. :( It was a relatively big hit, was the 29th best selling of 2003.

If JFTB only peaked at 20 in 2003, with that chart run, it surely only sold about 20-25k, maybe less.

 

All I Have would easily sell double its 2003 figures now, probably over 400k.

 

 

Good song by J-Lo

by the way what happened to Ja Rule?

Edited April 6, 201114 yr by ukchartstatsfan

On The Floor outsold every other JLo single apart from If You Had My Love in 3 weeks (295900). Definitely her biggest hit in UK, and 99% Love? will become also her biggest album in UK too.

I doubt it'll pass the sales of J.Lo, her albums never seem to sell by the bucket load. She doesn't have any go past Platinum.

I can't see Love? being a big album to be honest, it looks like this is another 'one hit then vanish again' comeback for her. I'm Into You didn't exactly set the charts on fire in the USA even with the help of Lil Wayne. I suppose we'll see though.

I hope I'm Into You flops because

 

1 - It's not a very good song

2 - It sounds dated

3 - Lil Wayne's rap isn't that great on the song

4 - It'll shut up J-Loons who keep saying that J-Lo is more sucessful than GaGa with her comeback. J-Lo wil have one massive hit, but GaGa will have 2 big hits (BTW and Judas) and likely to have another top 10 hit with her third single from BTW the album. Then she'll have more hits when she re-releases the album. GaGa's album will also sell big (not as big as The Fame) compared to J-Lo who will be lucky to spend a week top 10 in the albums chart and likely to not re-release with big hits

The video isn't out yet, give it time before calling it a flop.

Besides, OTF is still riding high in the charts, that'll help.

 

 

Lets face it, On The Floor has had much more impact than Born This Way.

OTF has 105,318,446 views on youtube

BTW has 37,691,630 views.

 

This time last year, J-Lo was seen as a has-been who would never have a hit again and Gaga was the biggest singer on the planet.

 

This is all my own opinion though, so Gaga loons needn't bother having a go :kink:

This.

 

I reckon 'Love?' will have a similar Album Chart run to Nicole Scherzinger's 'Killer Love' Album. I wouldn't be surprised if it even peaks slightly higher, maybe Top 5.

I doubt it'll pass the sales of J.Lo, her albums never seem to sell by the bucket load. She doesn't have any go past Platinum.

Well her target isn't tough as only JLo (album) has probably passed 600k. If I'm Into You become a proper hit (Top 10) and then release the dynamite (see Papi :wub:) she can sell at least 600k. Hopefully ^_^
