They're legends in Japan. Selling 3 mil from Japan alone is comparable to 7 mil first-week in the US, that's 11x Bey's opening

Are we sure that those are sales from just one country? I know the sales from Japan are massive but I'm wondering.

Not the entire top 8 being irrelevant Asian flops.

This should be a global totals list, but since Queen Utada would win anyway, congrats to her!

I'm sorry but it's not my fault they're local.

Those two are J-pop legends and Ayu is worth more than stars like Madonna, Gaga, and Beyonce.

Not in raw album sales. Plus, they're bigger because they're twice as expensive.

She's worth as much as Bey. Not more than Madonna though.

Whoops, Madonna went up a biT. She's worth more than Bey, though, as of the last numbers I saw.

Okay then lets double Bey's number as well because her album was 2x as expensive.

$15.99 is standard for a lot of US deluxe editions and albums in Japan are $25 to $30 on a good day.
