It only sold less because it was released before the digital age took off. It has stronger catalog sales than Irreplaceable, Halo and SL.
And, for the record, I don't think it's shade that artists had their biggest hits with their "first" single. It's not like they haven't added tons of huge smashes to their names.
And I agree. My question is, are we talking about sales/charts or being memorable? Because my answer will be different depending on this
Digital age one hit wonders. Their follow up singles climb the charts by association due to curiosity and ease of availability / clickbait from streaming services and so on. No one would ever remember Carly or Meghan outside of Call Me Maybe / All About That Base. Hell, they won't even remember the singers of those songs. It's one of those cases of a song being bigger than the person singing it. And yes, I can tell the future. Her next lead single will do nothing on charts. Bookmark.

I'm not going to bother doing that but you really should not compare Carly with Meghan. Meghan has already shown a lot more longevity than Carly in her first era, plus Title sold 500k more than Kiss in the US and the era isn't even finished yet.

The delusion and lies especially the last sentence. Meghan has already secure a Harry Styles collab on her upcoming era and is due to work with Max Martin and his team. We shall see then.

The difference is that Meghan can actually sell albums.
