62k from THREE DAYS outside of North America is pretty decent considering the type of surprise release. He needs more build up to sell in places where he doesn't have a huge established fanbase.

1989 has already sold 6.3M. Just matter of time for it to outsell Teenage Dream

thats amazing tbh
i think his last album didnt even sell 200k internationally

It already has...
Next stop GGGB/IASF

UF with 10 weeks at #1.

The absolute slayage of Meghan Trainor... No predicted her to be so consistent with her sales. She really did slay

Weren't people saying AATB is local? Omg how close is it to 10 million points? I see it's 4x Platinum

Sam Smith - ITLH 3,990,000 total
Ed Sheeran - x 4,785,000 total

Sam just 10k from 4 million. Huge.

I love when albums have massive later singles. Prism and X for example. Dark Horse and TOL both being like 3rd singles. Really impacts huge on albums

LOL at whoever said that. The delusion!

AATB is at 8,382,000 currently!

They are smashing. Best selling male albums of the decade:

8.8M Michael Bublé - Christmas
7.5M Justin Bieber - My Worlds
7.4M Eminem - Recovery
6.3M Bruno Mars - DooWoops & Hooligans
6.2M Bruno Mars - Unorthodox Jukebox

I think both Sam & Ed have a chance at outselling DW&H rather sooner than later. I wonder if Bruno could comeback and outsell them later with his next album!




By the way, here is a comparison at how Ariana and Meghan´s albums were doing:

My Everything vs. Title:
286K vs. 244K
96K vs. 82K
69K vs. 91K
64K vs. 73K
57K vs. 83K

Total after 5 weeks: 572K vs. 573K

They are selling kinda similar numbers, and its also important to note that Ariana was already 3 singles into the era at the time while Meghan´s 3rd single was only released on Australia so far. Everything is looking promising for her, i wonder if she could reach 2M sales in the end

UF is falling down, Ellie better snatch
snatch, she is coming.

Thanks ALESTEVENS

UF still over 500K weekly
