Tommymonster44 0 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 inb4 Klou, nick4bty and others bash Bruno. Don't forget me ;). On another topic, I'm not that surprised by Daft Punk's success. Their kind of like the "madonna" of electronic music...without the pretentious attitude and lack of recent popularity of course. I just mean that they have gained respect within the music community and have a strong following that will buy whatever they put out. They could put out a terrible album and it will still shift copies it's first week just because it's Daft Punk. In addition, they really played the Tron soundtrack perfectly. Their name is really tied in with that movie perfectly, and it brought in a lot more mainstream listeners. These guys are getting hits because they know what they're doing.

Same also to One Direction. However, I like their music esp. their album, not because of their appeal but because of the music quality of their album. T20/20E is actually a grower. I didn't like it first, but now I do. :) "A little less conversation and a little more touch my body." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangerous Man 9,245 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 The #2 best selling album sold 50% less than the #1 best selling album. Dead industry Japan might pass USA this year. Well, Eminem, Gagz, and Bey are still there. MAYBE, they can still save the industry. Also Bruno, I'm pretty sure UJ will sell 1.5M copies this year (+500k last year). for me it's a lower, at first i thought it was just an ok album now i completely hate it Okay, I respect your opinion. :) "A little less conversation and a little more touch my body."
