DiscoHeaven23 35,007 Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 This is pretty cool. So we all know album sales have changed and you really can't compare albums from different years anymore. But you can compare them to their positions on the Billboard charts because it reflects the market. So the Billboard 200 in 2013 was JUST sales. Now its sales and streaming. But Billboard still keeps a chart of the top album sales. So I compared ARTPOP's positions on the Billboard 200 to Joanne's positions on the Top Album Sales chart. And as it turns out, Joanne is pacing much better than ARTPOP. Joanne (2016) 1st Week: #1 2nd Week: #5 3rd Week: #7 4th Week: #19 5th Week: #10 6th Week: #11 7th Week: #19 8th Week: #21 9th Week: #16 10th Week: #22 11th Week: #29 ARTPOP (2013) 1st Week: #1 2nd Week: #8 3rd Week: #7 4th Week: #13 5th Week: #18 6th Week: #18 7th Week: #18 8th Week: #12 9th Week: #22 10th Week: #35 11th Week: #42 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

venusfly 17,879 Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I wish it'd stream decently.. I mean even some of my indie favs have more spotify listeners than gaga MØ: 11m listeners Tove Lo: 14m listeners Gaga: 9m listeners Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
He8MyHeart 9,522 Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 What an interesting comparison. I'm liking these numbers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babel 40,912 Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Also, it's worth noting ARTPOP had Applause and Do What You Want in the Top 20 of Billboard during those first 6 weeks. Joanne is doing incredibly well with Gaga not having a current hit (or any in 3 years). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
