January 22, 201510 yr #11 is not bad for Ella's album considering 'Ghost' is only just taking off. Any chance it could be top 10 in the actual sales chart?
January 22, 201510 yr Author #11 is not bad for Ella's album considering 'Ghost' is only just taking off. Any chance it could be top 10 in the actual sales chart? Surprisingly no, #11 on that chart too.
January 23, 201510 yr Jazmine Sullivan really unlucky to miss the top #10 and Ella lucky to have peaked at #11 :o
January 23, 201510 yr Author Jazmine Sullivan really unlucky to miss the top #10. Yeah, I feel sorry for not being able to say she had another Top 10 album.
January 23, 201510 yr Author BILLBOARD 200 133 42 Robin Schulz - Prayer This album would have sold less than 3,000 (as it's not top 100 on Top Album Sales), yet it's #42 on BB200 :lol:
January 24, 201510 yr Author Chart HighlightsTaylor Swift's "1989" crosses the 4 million mark this week.

She is also the 2nd artist to sell more than 4 million with their first 5 full length studio records (Garth Brooks being the first). It seems bizarre that even though album sales are slumping, Taylor is defying the odds and selling albums at a faster rate than anything she has released before :o.
January 24, 201510 yr When do you think it will go diamond? I was thinking it could follow the trajectory of 21 but obviously it doesn't have as broad an appeal as 21 did to spur those sales, and sales will gradually taper off anyway, but she's only a couple singles in and if she remains ubiquitous enough throughout the year, maybe sales will remain relatively steady.
January 25, 201510 yr I think it can sell perhaps 6.5m ultimately. Not diamond. Edited January 25, 201510 yr by jark

It probably won't. 6-7 million most likely. The sales climate looks as though it's going to drop a little again and her sales are also starting to calm down. With singles to promote the album I think she will be able to shift another 2-3 million by the end of the era but 10 million is out of reach :/
January 25, 201510 yr Author 2012 - Red (4.1 million)2010 - Speak Now (4.5 million)2008 - Fearless (6.9 million)2006 - Taylor Swift (5.5 million)I think '1989' will sell between 5-6 million.
January 25, 201510 yr Anyone else thinking Taylor may re-release for the first time EVER? I mean cause SURELY we're all overlooking this possibility. Edited January 25, 201510 yr by Blank Slayberry
January 25, 201510 yr Author Anyone else thinking Taylor may re-release for the first time EVER? Didn't she re-release 'Fearless' ?
January 25, 201510 yr I think that actually plays a pretty decent part. I mean why would one casual listener buy an album that can be listened to via spotify? Of course the brilliance of the album, its singles release strategy, the radio backing and great promo from her team make up for the rest Edited January 25, 201510 yr by *Tim
