I can't believe Hard Candy is winning/losing. Sure, Madge has done much better, but to think it's worse than OOTB/IASF/Circus I'm sorry, but I think that's just super delusional.
Funhouse and Hard Candy. Not only are they just bad albums, but they're huge disappointments when you consider the great albums (IMD and COADF) that came before them.
I'd probably rank the albums like this :
1. Fearless
2. Rockferry
3. IASF
4. Circus
5. OOTB
6. The Fame
7. Hard Candy
8. Funhouse
What? The Sasha Fierce (I fixed it Stevie ) side DESTROYS the I Am. If it were just the SF side it'd be a solid but disappointing album. The I Am side is horrific.
