MonsterOfSpain 8,296 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 How much did BTW sell in Taiwan, Australia and Switzerland? Always wanted to know (especially Taiwan). You have to realize that it totally depends on how well promoted something is in a country. Born To Die by Lana Del Rey for example sold 300.000 in Poland and 500.000 in the US. Adele's 21 sold much less in Japan than Born This Way, but sold a whopping 450.000 copies in The Netherlands. If you have all the markets at full potential you truly optimize your album sales. And you must also remember that these days, singles are to promote an album and albums are to promote a tour. This, Spain is here for Gaga this era, Applause went #1 in first week and was still #3 in her 7th, and now DWUW is still #2 on iTunes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowyrain 38 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 The further away the song gets from the #1 spot the smaller the % difference will be between updates. It's probably still falling just as fast. If we look by percents decreasing is still slowing : 1,6 to 1,3 Edit : sorry wrong maths. But it is still slowing decrease! %6 to %4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumblebee 2,528 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 How much did BTW sell in Taiwan, Australia and Switzerland? Always wanted to know (especially Taiwan). Taiwan 100,000 Australia 140,000 Switzerland 100,000 You have to realize that it totally depends on how well promoted something is in a country. Born To Die by Lana Del Rey for example sold 300.000 in Poland and 500.000 in the US. Adele's 21 sold much less in Japan than Born This Way, but sold a whopping 450.000 copies in The Netherlands. If you have all the markets at full potential you truly optimize your album sales. And you must also remember that these days, singles are to promote an album and albums are to promote a tour. Yes indeed. At the same time it's impossible to deny that all the mentioned music markets have different potential capability of sales, which is reflected it in the certifications numbers. I mean, you've got to sell 1,000,000 copies in the USA to get PLATINUM album and at the same time "just" 300,000 in the UK and 200,000 in Germany. That's the difference. I don't even wanna know how many platinum certification it takes to sell 400,000 copies in Holland. But what I mean to say is that she can sell 1,000,000 copies by getting 5xPLATINUM in Germany which is extremely difficult and requires lots of efforts and appeal from the general public (I think) OR by going PLATINUM in the USA which is relatively easy for her. I just believe she shouldn't be wasting too much time in countries where she will have to get like 10xPLATINUM to sell 200,000 copies, focusing instead on the countries which provide higher sales with less platinum score.

APPLAUSE4YOU 396 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Why is everyone counting out Unconditionally so prematurely? Let the song rise. She will at least be in Top 5 with this song. It's very possible for the song to get to #1 too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
