Oyemiamor 40 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I love the production in Only Girl In the World Living Things by Linkin Park is #1 on albums Is it really gonna outsell Maroon 5? Linkin Park’s Living the high life. The veteran Warner Bros. rap-rockers will debut at #1 on the next HITS Album sales chart with their fifth studio album, Living Things, which looks headed to an opening week of between 220-240k, according to one-day sales reports from those retailers who haven’t paved paradise and put up a parking lot. It’s the first chart-topper for WEA this year. That compares favorably with their last album, A Thousand Suns, which debuted in Sept. 2010 with 241k, and went on to sell 845k. A&M/Octone act Maroon 5 prove the power of television, as lead singer Adam Levine’s stint on The Voice has led to a first-week projection between 190-210k, which would top the debut of the band’s last album, Hands All Over. That one entered the charts with 142k in sales in Sept. 2010, just a week after Linkin Park’s last album, coincidentally enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innovative 2 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I admit I've never really listen to the entire album. I'm basing my opinion on her live performances and they have left me disappointed. The NA video was on point though. I wanna give her a chance, she seems worth it, but I just have this feeling she'll fade away and all I'll be left with is a couple of her CDs and a few videos. It might sound shallow, but I'm looking for longevity when deciding to stan for someone. :) Why can't you just be a fan of someone without worrying about how long they last? That makes no sense. If you like the music, it doesn't matter what your "left with" if they fail to make hits in the future. You are left with music that you enjoy.

CoolTrainerTerry 1,118 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 (edited) Black Eyed Peas - I Gotta Feeling becomes the first song in US digital history to pass 8M downloads :clap: I saw her new video today, and I'm very impressed by it...at the same time I just don't get her appeal. Yeah, she's pretty...and her style is unique, but I just don't see why people love her to the point of having her face tattooed on their bodies. Speaking of Lana, I actually saw someone in a Lana shirt a few days ago. It was very random. Edited June 28, 2012 by CoolTrainerTerry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever, guess I was wrong. I really don't care because I love them both :flutter: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like the music, it doesn't matter what your "left with" if they fail to make hits in the future. You are left with music that you enjoy. That's true...however, I said "stan" not "fan". :cheerup: Imo, they're at 2 completely different levels. :) For an example, I'm a fan of Tweet, love her music, listening to 'Call Me' right now, happy to have her songs in my collection, but I don't stan for her. I certainly wouldn't have her face tattooed on me. Aaliyah is another great example of someone I stan for. I have all her albums, and I plan on having her symbol tattooed on me at some point. Speaking of Lana, I actually saw someone in a Lana shirt a few days ago. It was very random. Well at least they can take that off. :P Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
boysboysboys 278 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 The new Gaga song is amazingness :wub: I love the production in Only Girl In the World It was impeccable. Rihanna's pitchyness and bad range held it down, sadly. Well she seems like the real deal. If she is indeed, like you said, she'll be around for as long as she wants. :) She has a solid market now, and the critics mostly like her, but she still has a long way to go.

Klou 2,365 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Who doesn't? I'm not the biggest fan. I remember when I first heard it I thought it sounded like a dance song from like 2004. It still sounds like a dated dance song to me... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

boysboysboys 278 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 My favorite on LOUD was S&M. Ugh. Great production, but that song is repetition galore. I wonder why Loud got nominated in the Grammys and 4 didn't. Yes it is and yes she does. How are things here, Tino? Did WA get the #1? Are WHYB and Boyfriend still on the Top 10?

DaEdgeOfGloryYo 0 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 WHYB is top 5 now? Not bad. I like Gaga's new song. I hope it isn't another "You & I". or "Hair". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I heard 'WHYB' has risen to #5 on the Hot100 this week, not sure about 'Boyfriend', but it's likely gone down.
