According to Chartmasters, until a year ago, Poker Face had sold 20.3m pure sales worldwide, so 28 million ww SPS is a fair number.

 

Don’t believe it sold 20.3 million pure sales tbh, again seems very exaggerated. In a time where records barely sell across Europe I just can’t see it. It sold approx 7 million pure sales in the U.K. and USA combined, which are her biggest markets, so can’t see it selling 13 million more pure sales elsewhere...

Yep, for instance in Finland digital singles were barely a thing.

Lol what? :rofl:

 

Poker Face sold 9 million pure copies in the US + UK based on downloads only

US:

@1258106757907271683

UK:

Gaga bluffed with her muffin all the way to 1.19 million sales, making Poker Face her best-selling song.

Also, in the US alone, Poker Face sold another ~1.5m copies on Ringtones, that alone brings the total to 10.5 million pure copies sold and as was said on Chartmasters:

 

As previously explained, the track did well everything – in all countries and in all formats. With ringtones, it sold nearly 15 million units in the US, the UK, South Korea and Japan alone!

And this counting digital copies only (downloads and ringtones), since Poker Face sold monstrously in physical sales for a song that was released when this format was almost dead. Plus, I can easily find another 5 million pure copies of this song with the rest of the countries (or even more).

 

For you, it's a lost game to try to deny the sales of such an iconic song, it was a smash hit of colossal proportions in any market around the world, one of the best-selling songs of all time! :)

Lol what? It's its highest position in more than 3 years (since March 2017) :cheeseblock:

The TFM vinyl was sold at Urban Outfitters, queen of vinyl sales :cheeseblock:

Oooh so sales for this vinyl counted for this week then (when it was dispatched)? I thought it happened the week you buy it :o

 

I still haven't received mine yet.

Seems so!

 

We need a Joanne and Chromatica campaign too.

I thought TFM chatted differently over there. Was the vinyl one like the UK edition where it also included The Fame?

 

Good to see it back in the charts there though.

It was the white haired cover, with The Fame (original) as one vinyl and The Fame Monster (dark haired cover) as the second vinyl. So a full deluxe package. I can't wait to receive it!

This week's Billboard chart:

 

#43. Chromatica (-3)

#100. The Fame (RE)

#177. A Star Is Born (+9)

:clap:

Amazing progress for ASIB!

YAY

Rain on Me's pure sales are great for 2020 standards, this year only 21 songs reached the 150k pure copies mark sold in the US and last year this same week 46 songs had reached that mark.

Yeah it has done amazing numbers in terms of pure sales AND streaming combined! A true monster smash (that still has huge promo to come) :yahoo:

Another week in which she puts 3 albums on Billboard 200. The only female artist with 3 or more albums on the chart, along with Taylor. :cheeseblock:

Smashing success! She really has the following again, which is great to see.
