Mariah had her top with her second single, while Madonna probably already had her top with the first one. So I'm staying with Mariah on this comparison.
The US is the biggest market for sales in the world!! You only have to sell/ship like 300k to go platinum in the UK. Whereas in the US you have so sell/ship a million.
UK - 100k(gold) - 300k(platinum)
US - 500k(gold) - 1,000,000(platinum)
IDN how Europe does its certification but i doubt its that much either.
The US is the biggest market for sales in the world!! You only have to sell/ship like 250k to go platinum in the UK. Whereas in the US you have so sell/ship a million.
ookk...what does that have to do with this thread.
I understand Virgin ***** but the threasd starter specifically said WORLDWIDE and actaully 2 of those things he talked about included USA
COADF Album to hit no.1's worldwide: 39 countries to date
TEOM Album to hit no.1's worldwide: 2 countries to date
COADF Album certified 2x platinum in Europe=2 weeks
TEOM Album certified 1 platinum in Europe=9 months
COADF Album shipments in 1st month=5.5million
TEOM Album shipments in 1st month=2.5million
interesting.
interesting??, in accordance with these points and if i am not so bad to conclude things, might i say madonna and her COADF did it better than mariah in every respect?
attracts attention of me how COADF remained at number one in 39 countries and mariah...well. Also how madonna is selling more than mariah everyday. and finally, i don't know why there are people who dares to say mariah carey is better, when 99% of the world population knows madonna is the queen of pop and dance.
You Madonna fans are worse than Britney fans. You make me hate Madonna more and more. Like how Britney fans make me hate her!
While the real fact is, they're mediocre "singers" who make sythesized catchy dance music. I don't hate them. But the fans talk so much **** and praise them to the point of no end. That it gets to me!
Seriously? Do we need to do this AGAIN? It's not like we need another Marc with a damn obsession of Worldwide sales. And God knows we don't need anymore Madonna vs. Mariah threads. I really never thought I'd live to see anything more annoying than the Britney Vs. Christina fights of yesteryear, but yeah, this **** easily takes the crown.
He told YOU Gerry and Chad. Learn which is the meaning of a forum and get back to him, jagoffs.
lmao. notice how I did not say to stop posting them. I just stated that I found these threads to be the most annoying thing ever. I was posting my opinion, which is what you do in Forums no? So yeah, what were you saying Bart?
those statistics are a bit one-sided when there are definitely things to Mariah's favor...especially the fact that the album didn't sell well until WBT came out...and of course Confessions is outselling it right now when it's been out for 9 months already
and let's not forget which of them is known for her voice as opposed to her controversy

COADF has sold 3.7 million albums worldwide, -1 million in usa and 3 million outside
TEOM has sold 7.3 million albyms ww, 4.5 million in usa and 2.8 million outside...
and the end of the next year i think TEOM will sell 9-10 million albums worldwide...6-7 million in usa and 3-4 million outside
COADF i think is gonna sell like 2 million in USA and 5-6 million outside, which sales are going to be sometihng beetween 7-8 million worldwide
just remember where were mariah and madonna 2 years ago... floppinż badly!
Madonna last album, USA:800K WW:3 million
Mariah last album:USA:1.2 Million , WW:2 million

That's so true and honestly there's no reason for all this cattiness, we should be glad that they're both on the rebound.
omg, how many comparisons do we have to have. At the end of the day, Madonna will always sell big worldwide, as anything that has her name on it sells, whereas Mariah Carey will have to work for her sales with her voice.
NOTE: Madonna has not reached platinum in the US, only sitting at about 890,000 right now I believe.

I think its pretty sad how your interest in an artist is depicted by how their fans act.
