agpuh 138 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Tony isn't an album mover. His starpower, as it translates now, does two things in terms of industry: high priced small engagement tickets and industry support (Grammys). We saw the former in action last month when several high profile politicians and celebrities attended One Last Time. Gaga was a perk, sure, but that evening was fundamentally a celebration and send-off of Tony's career. The latter we see in the fact in the fact that half of his Grammys have been won since his lifetime achievement that he is the only "legend" to get into more competitive categories still like Best Pop Duo/Group Performance.

Dr Fudge 8,599 Posted September 23, 2021 Author Share Posted September 23, 2021 I choose few hills to die on, but I choose this one. I really believe in Tony and Gaga and the potential with this album. Perhaps my volition is leading me down an odd path, but I can’t believe that my optimistic spirit would lead me astray. Been a cuff touple, a puff bupple, a tough couple of years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandonM170 686 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Trust me in 6 days I have listened to Wildest Dreams (TV) 17 times so if miss Taylor doesn't release a single from Red (TV) then that album will be listened to 24/7 for the first week! We ARE gonna get #1 for Tony!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandonM170 686 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Another way to get #1 is to buy physical copies. Taylor's release is just Fearless (TV) (which came out in April) however it is coming out on LP so it is just a physical release for Taylor that is why we need to buy physical copies and stream as much as possible.

Jennie Kim 6,934 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I think the top 3 will be Taylor, Meek and Drake. L4S will fight for the #4 spot with Montero. Taylor 150k - 170k Meek / Drake 120k - 140k LNX 80k - 100k Gaga and Tony 60K - 80k Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradley 57,642 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 15 hours ago, FudgeyBear said: Gaga went on to sell 201k with Joanne, 231k with ASIB, and 274k with Chromatica during each respective album’s first week sales. So why can’t they do these numbers again? She promoted those albums, extensively, heavily, consistently, across geographical continents and demographic platforms, for months. Love for Sale has two studio videos and that's it. Those performances she recorded wouldn't come until Christmas so the first week sales won't benefit from them. Chromatica had Ariana Grande and the explosive premiere of the Rain On Me video, she was releasing a lot of visuals, magazine interviews and photoshoots which she shot before. So far we're not really getting these even for LFS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas 24,491 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 They will do astronomical numbers compared to what jazz albums usually sell. But they will not beat Taylor Swift and Drake. They're the highest selling female and male of the last years... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Voices 1,024 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Number 1? When the Love foe sale song+video came out it wasn't even trending here. Instead Montero was tending and some random ****. The 2 videos of the singles have 2 mil and half mil views each. Come on. Enjoy things without looking at the charts. Forever and Always!

I share your sentiments. It's his last album too and gaga has been promoting it. She wants this #1. you don't have to like jazz but think of people you know who do and buy a couple cds/vinyls for them. I am already planning on buying a vinyl or two for my in law's.

Wet Fire 6,714 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 But it's not being marketed as Tony's last album. I mean it is an emotional finish to his legendary career. But I don't see the promo being spiked up by the labels. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
