I think it’s more impressive that 3.3m people bought one copy than much less people buying anywhere between 1 and 20 copies.With Adele as well I feel like the general public were much more aware of that album too. Very intrigued to see the overall impact Showgirl has outside the stan fanbase besides huge sales because with 25 thats definitely been cemented by being insanely genuinely popular without multiple variants and initially it wasn’t on streaming too!

October 5, 20251 yr Absolute true sales/streaming around 140~150k. Which is great, Factoring the corruption of streaming and multiple buys (Which escalates the bigger the fan base) probably 250~270k

I definitely should have added some higher tiers!
October 5, 20251 yr 😂😂 I thought i originally voted for the 200 to 250k but for some reason my vote hadn't been counted. I just thought sod it i might aswell just click the 250k plus lol.

Unfortunately (for me ofc x) it seems to have been a legit "limited edition" (just like the 'folklore' and 'evermore' variants)... she has not restocked the vinyl variants (yet?).
October 6, 20251 yr Wow, I wondered if I'd gone too bold with 302k before we had any Spotify numbers but Taylor is just unstoppable to have already beaten that, insane
October 6, 20251 yr INSANE!!! I wonder if the Alt cover cd's are dispatching this week to count? It stated dispatched on / around Friday? So they could be for week 2? I kinda hope they dispatch before so it counts because I'm sure she sold alot of those.Looking like 400k is on lock by the end of the week by the time all the streaming catches up.
October 6, 20251 yr Yeah adeles keeping her record in the UK she probably gonna smash it in the US thoughComing for evermore lifetimes sales in week 1 😮
