Just Dance WW sales: 13,870,000 - 7,200,000 (US sales) = 6,670,000 (outside the US) Alejandro WW sales: 5,590,000 - 2,620,000 (US sales) = 2,970,000 (outside the US) Telephone WW sales: 9,810,000 - 3,500,000 (US sales) = 6,310,000 (outside the US) Just Dance was way bigger than Alejandro and is bigger than Telephone as well. Not in terms of sales only. Alejandro was bigger than Just Dance. Well, at least in Europe. In summer 2010 Alejandro was playing in every club or store. Just Dance was bigger in NA than in other countries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd put BTW higher too @EvilRegal Born This Way wasn't as big as the other ones. It was in 2011 but now I don't think so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital sales were the main way to calculate the popularity of a song back when those two songs were released; Just Dance has WAY bigger sales = it's a bigger hit, it's a fact.

Moo 2,082 Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 It depends. In sales relative to population, Alejandro is top four for sure. And Bad Romance VS Poker Face for #1 depends on whether we’re considering longevity and lasting impact. If we are, I’d say: 1. Bad Romance 2. Poker Face (big gap) 3. Just Dance 4. Alejandro 5. Born This Way 6. Telephone 7. Paparazzi 8. The Edge of Glory 9. Judas 10. Applause 11. LoveGame 12. Do What You Want 13. You and I 14. Million Reasons 15. The Cure 16. Marry the Night 17. Perfect illusion 18. Eh eh 19. Dance in the Dark 20. G.U.Y. 21. Til it Happens to You 22. Joanne Its worth remembering that a few singles (Judas, Alejandro & Paparazzi) did a lot better internationally than they did in the US. So just because others (such as Applause, LoveGame, MR and You and I) may have outpeaked them in NA, doesn’t mean they were smaller worldwide hits.

You can't compare singles sales of a song from the 80's to sales from a song released in 2005. Of course Hung Up is gonna sell more it was released in the DIGITAL age... You don't seem to know a lot about charts, do you? Just Dance and Alejandro were both released in the digital age so you can compare them and Just Dance is obviously bigger.

Sneaky Oliver 20,984 Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Bad Romance, Poker Face and Alejandro for top3 In the land of gods and monsters, I was an angel living in the Garden Of Eden Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeo 2,366 Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 All I know is that Million Reasons is nowhere in that top10 That was totally USA only and few other random places where it went platinum after months. Her Fame\Monster days were the biggest for sure. But still it's just hard to manage this in "worldwide" score and it actually goes way far than only "sales" since we can like, pick up the fact "The Cure" was her highest charting song in Australia since The Edge Of Glory yet I don't think it outsold Applause. There are many factors to count it. I can tell you Judas & Marry The Night were really hit singles in Brazil. Judas was like her most played song ever here followed by Alejandro (or the otherway but yeah, both). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
