Can Love For sale debut at No.1 #BB200?

I dont think this is gonna get even Top 5, sorry to ruin everyone's hope but knowing Gaga's team they'll ship the CD a week later and it wont count for the debut.

Doubt it but i'd be pleasantly surprised

I’m sure it would mean a lot to Gaga and Tony, but even if it gets top 5 it would still be great. 

Same. That said, I definitely think it will be #1 or #2. CFB will have been out for like 3-4 weeks at that point and there's no way the vinyls from Fearless will be enough, imo, to overcome Love for Sale. Pure sales may be doing poorly in general, but Tony's fans a) still buy albums and b) an album only really needs around 35-40k to top the charts, nowadays, unless it's a competitive release week.

I hope so, it's what Tony deserves.

It's a jazz cover album, what were you expecting?

A Lil Texas remix

I mean, Taylor will sell 30k albums for sure just in vinyls, and her fans will stream.

Tony's follow up to CTC debuted with 6k copies, I hope since is his last album there's more people buying it but it's gonna be hard.

But C2C debuted on the charts with 100k+ copies on the charts in 2014, when pure sales were still very much alive. Now pure sales are dead, I'm kinda worried.

Do we think pure sales were really affected for Jazz?

yeah this is 1000000% doable

I genuinely don't think Tswift's vinyls is gonna guarantee her a #1 debut, maybe a top 5 debut, but not #1.

 

Her last vinyl release moved 102,000 units, which is the biggest in U.S. history. The previous record was 40,000 for reference.

I don't see it doing particularly well on the charts just because there is no Special Event on tv in the first week (perhaps 60 minutes?). TV is the main platform to promote a new album for TonyGa fans, I guess. I don't see them doing live talk-shows interviews because of Tony's condition. So I am not very optimistic about the sales.

She has no chance against Meek, Taylor and Drake 

So probably Top 5 

 

Her dumb team should have released this album last winter or 2019

"Dumb team". Once again calling her team names without having any sort of insight into the background happenings. We know that Chromatica was slated for 2019 and most resources were already allocated to that. And every winter Christmas music takes over again, killing off a large part of the season for charts.

What if we consider CTC as one of Gaga‘s regular #1 albums, but count LFS as a Tony Bennett album where Gaga is just featured? 
 

It's not that I've been dishonest
It's just that I loathe reality.. indeed

It’ll reach #1 on a low sales week,

Gaga & Bobby will release the “limited edition” signed copies for sale during the release of one of the documentaries or live shows airing & that’s when it’ll probably get the chance to obtain it, I don’t expect a first week number one, but probably like in its 5th or 6th especially if they’ve delayed certain promo materials til early 2022, they’re eyeing to secure large sales with the holiday boost.

i don't want to sound like bi**h but it will get #1 on Billboard 200 afte Tony's passing. Artist's death is always the best promo album could have.

I can see this happening but do people actually buy Drake's music in physical?  idk but I always feel only locals listen to him and that's the kind of people who think CDs are obsolete or don't know what a CD is

Do we have like a number or something that shows how good he does with physical copies?

Fair point! But he's still getting tons of streams so if you add it to physical sales it will still be #1 I guess. 9songs of the top 10 on Billboard hot 100 are his songs, so even just with streams I feel like he'll be #1 still
And I believe Evermore broke a record for most vinyl sales in a week, or was it folklore?
