Born To Die debuted at #1 on Mediatraffic chart and already sold 525k WW.

It's still #3 on iTunes WW chart according to Kworb:

Pos Pos+ Artist and Title Days Peak Pts Pts+
1 = Adele - 21 356 1(254) 22459 -92
2 = Whitney Houston - The Ultimate Collection 27 2 19243 -361
3 +1 Lana Del Rey - Born to Die 22 1(3) 18662 +641

But a lot of members on ATRL think it's one of the biggest flop of this decade.

What do you think

Ahmed.

It's no flop

for the hype that she was getting ummm yeah.
Especially in the US.
She hit number 1 so fast on iTunes you would've thought
she would still be talked about.

Dark Matter

It's not. End of.

JonnyϟLightning

No, hopefully it will have longevity if she releases the correct singles!

Kool_Aid_King

Too soon to tell. But in terms of First week, I'd say it's a flop.

not really.
Seems like the Lana fad has already faded but I guess.

But those sales where mostly without promo. How it can be a flop?

Boop

Flop?

no, I don't think so.

freebitch26

considering that she is new and doesn't have a hit single no.

tj hazuki

Not world wide, no.

Navin

Shes sold over 500k WW... she isn't a flop.

i spit on haters

No. Regardless of how it performed on the charts. It was that single that helped launch her career. It's like Lana became a sensation overnight.

BadBitch

LOL, no.
