How is this weird? One comes from professional songwriter background others come from TV for children.

lmao.

It also had super generic/ non-album selling lead single according to ATRL.

Does 68-73k prediction include streaming, guys?

Oops

girl sit. I didn't know having a top 5 hit could be held against you. and since when do single sales = album sales, anyway? especially in today's sales climate? FOH with your nonsense

HAHAHAAHAHAAAAAAAAA

Demi and Selena stans, please STOP! Both of your faves are terrible album sellers. No need to drag each other

Please, they go right for the same audience. Taylor writes her own songs, but she aims right for the teen audience. Nothing adult oriented about it.

Taylor is an anomaly though. Other than Adele, no one does as well as her.

Plus, Selena and Demi never really connected with the general audience as well Taylor and Miley did. Selena cause she couldn't perform well at all and Demi cause, yeah, idk.

Tragic

117K is her best first week ever. It's not poor numbers for her. It's practically standard. Some artists just sell differently: look at Rihanna for example, slow out the gate regardless of her hits BUT she ends up doing well in the longrun.

Wow Demi's numbers are really bad considering all of the promo she did.

Yikes at a chick like Halsey outselling her though

Hopefully this is the case. This album is really good and deserves to do well. I also think it has a broad appeal that she hasn't tapped into yet. CTFS is kind of a kitch so you either hate it or love it. I wish her team sent one of her ballads to AC radio, maybe For You. I think she could have a strong appeal to adult audiences.

What's wrong with being confident
