November 26, 20204 yr Tragic isn't it? :( Not even the worst performance for a #1 album in the US either!
November 27, 20204 yr There's been four bigger drops from #1: (1–169) Bon Jovi - This House is Not for Sale (2018) (1–111) Celine Dion - Courage (2019) (1–97) Brand New - Science Fiction (2017) (1–88) Brockhampton - Iridescence (2018) Bon Jovi's album had already been to #1 in 2016, I think it returned to #1 due to a ticket bundle or something. Celine Dion and Brand New's albums had more than two weeks in the chart - just Brockhampton's album matches the two weeks of 'Madame X' but his drop was slightly worse.
June 11, 20214 yr i always wondered why Ray Of Light (song) sold that many digital downloads in the US, was it promoted in some tv commercial or something?
November 6, 20222 yr Taylor Swift overtakes Madonna for female artist with most Top 10 singles: @1587128213888720898
December 1, 20222 yr 2022 Billboard Year End Charts: https://www.billboard.com/charts/year-end/ Top Dance/Electronic Artists 24. Madonna Hot Dance/Electronic Songs 33. Frozen with Sickick Hot Dance/Electronic Digital Song Sales 15. Frozen with Sickick
February 22, 20232 yr Copied from UKMIX: Heavily informed by the birth of her daughter Lourdes and her newfound interest in all things spiritual, Ray of Light undeniably restored Madonna’s reputation as the Queen of Pop. Not only did it notch the highest first-week sales by a female artist in the Nielsen SoundScan Era up until that point, but it spawned four Hot 100 hits, won four Grammy Awards and has sold 3.9 million copies in the U.S., per Luminate. It’s also generated 123.1 million on-demand official U.S. streams to date, according to Luminate. https://www.billboard.com/lists/madonna-ray...m-songs-ranked/ 3,900,000 pure album sales from Luminate/Soundscan + 459,000 BMG Music Club sales + 82,066 streaming equivalent units (123.1M streams) = 4,441,066 US units (not including track equivalent units that the RIAA & Luminate also use).
March 4, 20232 yr This is a fun watch: View this post on Instagram Did I miss Elton John's additional two top 10 hits with Dua and Britney on there? Looked like it stayed at 27 and didn't change? Has he not got 29 top 10 US hot 100 hits?
May 3, 20232 yr I know this is off topic but that Celine album is so good!! It's very good!! Highly recommended
June 11, 20241 yr How has it only sold a million copies in the USA? Were single sales really dire in the 80's or something as it was a huge #1 over there wasn't it? Thought it was one of her big hits?
June 11, 20241 yr The IC did not reach number 1 in the states !!! It was #2 wasn't it? Huge seller sold like 10million or something but didn't quite reach the top spot, like Come on over by Shania Twain.

Thought it was one of her big hits? This is from UKMIX: Gold in 1998 as a physical single: 500k Sales Plus Streaming through April 2023: 754k = 1,254,000 Could be as high as 1.7m as we don’t know for sure how much it sold as a physical, just that it was over 500k and less than 1m.
