Yesterday at 16:251 day Considering the single hasn't really caught on in a big way, what sales do we think Confessions II is going to open with?
Yesterday at 16:261 day Id say 30k should easily be doable , didnt someone say she was going for the record of most variants ever
Yesterday at 16:281 day Really interested to see Madonna’s sales - there are 22 physical variants and I’ve seen so many unboxings on insta etc., with people getting 10+ copies.Also the fact that some of the physicals are priced decently (£19.99 for the vinyl etc.,) should help.
Yesterday at 16:281 day Her last studio album opened with 27k, I think this one will be closer to 40k!

20 hours ago20 hr It will be interesting to see Madonna's sales this week as Warner have spent a lot on this campaign, a few of the variants you could only purchase if you live in the US.
20 hours ago20 hr Excited for Mondays midweeks now! I’ve waited a while for this kind of Madonna impact. What a triumph.

However, this doesn't mean that there are fanbases around the world, of course.

However, this doesn't mean that there are fanbases around the world, of course.Yeah it was tongue in cheek , the fact that 2 females artists that were mahoosive in the 80s still have the fanbases to pull in theses sort of numbers 40 years into their careers is incredible The closest modern artist to this is Taylor swift and be interesting what sort of numbers she will be doing in another 20 years
18 hours ago18 hr I’m predictingMadonna - 55-60kSienna - 17k (would love this to be way higher but the last minute shows / signings lead me to believe it’s maybe not sold as well as hoped?) Edited 8 hours ago8 hr by Mr. C. Joel
18 hours ago18 hr Studio albums since 2000:2000: 151,891 - Music2003: 65,013 - American Life2005: 217,610 - Confessions on a Dancefloor2008: 94,655 - Hard Candy2012: 56,335 - MDNA2015: 37,245 - Rebel Heart2019: 27,227 - Madame X
16 hours ago16 hr I previously mentioned in one of the Madonna's threads artist forum posts that Confessions II may debut with 32k. However, given that figure sales number, I can see her recent album to surpass Rebel Heart's first week sales, which I didn't think she could initially do that. I can increase my prediction to be between 39k to 43k now, which includes the streaming sales too.
