She didnt promote in Japan at all and it opened with decent numbers BUT she did promote in the UK, so I expect at least 70,000 copies sold in first week. Anything below that is terrible.

38k sold first day

 

Bit disappointing tbh, seeing as she's had the preorder available since august, had a top 5 single, and 3 promo singles 

 

Eminem did like 70+ first day  :noparty:

I expect her to slightly more than double first day sales. Around 80k

Eminen went from 73k to 143k, but with one fewer day in his week.

 

Light Years - 49k

Fever - 139,075
Body Language - 69k
Ultimate Kylie - 83k
X - 82,370
Aphrodite - 79,152

 

Debut will be very similar to a typical Kylie album. Almost a repeat of the 79k Aphrodite got to best Recovery in its 3rd week.

Well Born This way sold 215k first week with like 90k first day right? So thats a multiplier of like 2.38

 

38 x 2.38 = 90.4

 

And it might not even be that much, hmm... I was really pulling for 100k. But I'm guessing it will be 80-90k now which I suppose is alright considering the state of the market. Imagine if she hadn't promoted so far though ugh...

 

Oh well, fastest selling female album on lock right? :party: AND she's coming back early December so let's hope she gets a decent promo spot like Jonathan Ross or Alan Carr in there too! :)

Just went to get my physical copy, It looks so beautiful with the foil XD. 

 

I really hope she gets good sales here. How much of a risk is Eminem right now?

from UK Mix:

Apparently Celine at #2, 16k behind Gaga.

Eminen is #3 with less than 22k.

 

Katy had around 20k day one, made it to 53k for week

Eminen had 73k, made it to 143k (with one less day than normal)

MDNA had 32.8, made it to 56.3 (with no top 30 singles or UK promo) .

Has anyone else's preoder from amazon yet to arrive? I'm still waiting and don't want to listen online as I like the feeling of listening to a Gaga album in full on a CD player and I'm gnawing at the bit right now. I thought it would surely arrive today and I've got all the time in the world to listen to it. How come I've never had a problem with amazon delivery until now? If it weren't for this special edition, I would have just gone out to a shop and bought it yesterday. I think all these problems are putting people off preordering in the future if it's going to lead to chart inelgiable singles and belated album delivery.

Celine at #2? How? Her last English album only went to #5 here with XF promo, so how is she managing to better that 7 years later with the same promo? I am really bewildered about this. You didn't mention Little Mix's sales, and they're one of Gaga's biggest competitions this week.

Surprised at Celine at #2 and Eminem at #3, wow. Guess Eminem isn't threatening at all at this point. Hopefully her sales are sustained all week so she can get as close to 100k as possible.

I got mine from Amazon today

 

And maybe just because they like Celine's song better? It's not tricky to understand lol. And Little Mix clearly aren't one of the biggest competition if their album is currently at #4 behind Celine and Eminem lol.

I wasn't even aware she had released anything, is she really that close? 

 

The idea of little Mix outselling Gaga makes me feel a little bit sick but I doubt it would ever happen.
