The Fame - 9 million

When will I see you again?

You left with no goodbye, not a single word was said,

No final kiss to seal any seams,

I had no idea of the state we were in,

I know I have a fickle heart and bitterness,

And a wandering eye, and a heaviness in my head,

But don't you remember?

Don't you remember?

The reason you loved me before,

Baby, please remember me once more,

BYE :pawsup:

9M for The Fame? 8M for Btw? One of them has a 4 year advantage though.

You know my favourite statistic or fact? Country/acoustic genre music is the biggest selling and always has been.

Considering the digital age, social networking, genre & the attention it got, 21 should have sold alot more. It flopped for a country-friendly genre album.

Adele's genre gets alot more sales than pop.

I love the interview so far an the answers she's given(especially on the BTWB). I'd rather all her interviewers were this "b---hy" and "shady"(at least according to GGD), if it regularly got these kind of answers from her.

It seems like common sense that most people think less of electronic music.

And I completely agree with the second part.

I understand what you're saying, but why is the interviewer saying it as if it's a fact that one genre of music is "better" than another? That's like saying rock music is "better" than country music, because the general public likes rock music at a specific point in time. The GP isn't an accurate judge of the quality of music. They're genres, it's all a matter of what kind you personally like the most.

It's not fair or accurate to say one is "better" than the other, because there's no fair or accurate way of judging it, besides how much work is put into it. As I've said above Gaga puts just as much (if not more) work into her music as Adele. Why even compare the two, they're two different hardworking singer-songwriters making two different genres of music. They're incomparable.

Do you kinda understand what I'm saying?

I'm glad Gaga said this. It must hurt her when people negatively compare her music to Adele's just because of genre.

I do. I think perhaps the article could have been written better. I will give the writer the benefit of the doubt, though. Gaga seems pleased with the article - she called it "the tea" which must mean she approves. And Gaga knows what the writer was asking and she knows what her words mean. But we kinda miss out on that real time interaction between them. Our interpretations could be completely off!

The most selling album of all time is a pop album 'Thriller', and No darling, 21 doesn't flopped. LOL

Madonna have like 5 albums with more than 20 million sales and she's a pop artist. And she doesn't do lot of promo like Gaga.

You're DELUSIONAL

:nails::laughga::smh:

Madonna's had a longer career. Gaga and Adele are still relatively new artists. Compare Madonna's first three albums' gross and revenue (before there was illegal downloading) to Gaga's three albums' gross and revenue (in a point where illegal downloading is at an all time high)

Btw, Britney Spears' first two albums even sold more than Adele's. So that must mean Britney Spears is more talented than Adele, right? :usrs:

And you're off-topic, if you want to continue trolling and flame-baiting, I'll be happy to report you. :)

Gurrl, you about to get in big trouble. Take your Adele stats and delusional beliefs that her music is lyrically superior to GaGa's and GTFO!! Way to make an account on a GAGA forum so to stan for Adele.

No. Michael Jackson's album sold in a time when music sold. That's entirely different. Same goes for Madonna's albums for the most part.

Actually, if we're going down the moronic fact splurting idiot route then we'll go there.

Britney Spears' first 2 albums did alot better than any of Adele's. Britney is a better singer & musician, she must surely be the greatest female in history. Adele who?

Miracle

ADELE tour > Insignificant number of sold outs and money gained.

BTW Ball > 70 million in 30 dates (expected +300 million when the btw ball ends

ADELE > 8 million twitter followers

GAGA > 38 million

.Does ADELE have an own social network with million of fans? NO

Well yeah, Gaga seems to approve of the article. :)

As far as we know, she probably even wanted to get all of this off of her chest, and discuss all these misconceptions about her work. I'm happy we were able to discuss our opinions respectfully. Some of the other fans can follow our example. :hug:

Why is there yet another Adele Vs. Gaga discussion in this thread? It's so abysmally boring.

Welcome to AdeleDaily! :hor:
