Could ASIB soundtrack have similar success to The Greatest Showman??

[Villanelle 1,247]

I'll be totally honest, I thought TGS was crap. The songs are nice but there's only 2/3 that are really big numbers. However it still continues to have huge chart impact, breaking records for musical songs being back in the charts etc- not to mention constantly being performed on talent shows (I swear if I hear Never Enough one more time..)

ASIB has a variety of different songs, from ballads to meaningful, from basic bops to some catchy numbers. I feel songs like WDYDT? and INLA could be big. 

I definitely think ASIB will have more staying power in the cinema i.e. when the songs start catching on to non-gaga fans, they will wanna check out the movie.

The Greatest Showman is a terrible movie and the soundtrack is tacky as **** lol. But it's what the GP loves. I don't see the same success for ASIB. 

[AndrewGr 6,019]

If I have to be honest, probably not. The songs from TGS were commercial/catchy af and extremely radio friendly. However, ASIB as a movie will have much more longevity than TGS.

For what it's worth, bias aside, I think ASIB has substantially better music than TGS.  Far less preachy and sugary, more poignant and just flat-out fun to listen to. I trust that, especially once people experience the songs in context, the soundtrack will be a massive hit.

I think definitely has the potential

If they manage to promote it well of course ! They just have to choose the right singles ! and that means : Is That Alright, WDYDT and one song with Bradley, why not Diggin my Grave

Depends on the longevity of the movie. If it turns out to be a huge box office hit, then music will soar as well.

Lil wayne will block it from #1

his streaming numbers have rapidly declined. The top song has already gone from streaming in the 4 millions a day to streaming in the 1 millions (in the US). And it's still the first week. Next week, those numbers will be lower. He had a lot of fanfare the first few days cuz people missed him and wanted to check his new stuff out, but it seems to be fading now.

I have faith for ASIB soundtrack

One of my friends has told me that it's predicted to sell 250k in its 2nd week and I think ASIB has no chance to debut higher than 250k. Well, it's not Gaga's fault. Streams ruined everything…

ASIB is extremely radio friendly too  apparently half of the album is pop and even the ballads are perfect for singles 

[Andrea B 16,370]

ASIB will be more successful, I mean... Their lead single was ''This is Me'' and it peaked #58  while shallow is not even the lead from ASIB and will debut at #33 or higher and probably reach top 20 or top 10 in the next weeks
