I feel like 2 of 2 will have great longevity because people aren't gonna rush to buy it first week but will just casually buy it later. I'm not sure people fully realize he has 11 new songs coming out. JT's public approval & acclaim rating is super high right now anyway despite TBtN so.
TBtN was just an awful lead single choice, even though I like the song. I can't believe he let it go for 2 months.
I agree with you about JT. Even with Mirrors fading in popularity since its peak, the album is still selling very well. Plus, his catalog sales are doing well, too.
