That's the reason why I despise EPs, particularly those which are hugely successful. It makes as though Gaga only had just 1 hugely successful era, when in reality she had two (and three for the first half of BTW). But anyway, I wouldn't mind a second "major" EP with the intention of combining its sales with ARTPOP.  :rofl:

well if it wasn't for the EP the sales of TF would have been a lot lower than now

It's much more fun to have hizophrenia... u never get lonely

Yeah, lower, but it'd still be relatively massive for any album released in the late 2000s. 9 million copies sold worldwide from TF alone is more than impressive for any debuting act.

Let's be honest, without TFM TF would've ended up selling the same as BTW, and if TFM was just an EP released apart from TF, it would've sold 8-10M, and BTW would've still ended up selling 7-8M

I actually prefer that, compared to combining both sales of the two albums. It would have presented Gaga with a bigger sophomore effort.

Well, damn. I'll be surprised if Bey opens with 1M+ WW though, she's missing out on important market such as Japan and South Korea with an iTunes-only release, and iTunes isn't big for selling albums in Europe, at most she'll sell what a #1 single on iTunes sells in a week, so she could end up selling 20k in Germany, 50k+ in the UK, 10-20k in Australia, 10k in France - which is all pretty low. She's granted with longetivity, because she's building up hype for physical release and at the same time she's making digital albums MUCH more important in Europe. This could really be a breakthrough in selling albums: Worldwide iTunes could become the biggest retailers rather than physical, all thanks to Beyoncé. We just need another big act like Adele to do this though.

Born This Way leaked, most songs/instrumentals were heard before the album.

It's not just not leaking, it's the hype. Beyonce's album has hype EVERYWHERE now. Media is praising Beyonce left and right, all pop fans are standing in the line to buy iTunes giftcards now and the soccer moms are camping in front of Target to buy their (clean) Beyoncé.

Well, not really but her hype is big on social media and media.

Let's hope Gaga will have similar effect after she performs in Space.  Imagine if she ends the ARTPOP era with performance in Space (really huge press and hype hopefully)  and then she have a 1 year break and then in 2016 she sings at the Superbowl :giveup:  And then release a new album, Imagine the slayage :giveup:
