The Fame and Fame Monster are two separate albums. They are only regarded as one component when it comes to sales. The lessors will DEAL with Gaga placing high on the list.
No
not in every country did it chart seperately. In most it charted as a re release so it shared the same PEAK.
The Fame didn't go #1 in a lot of countries, so I don't think it would make a big difference if The Fame and The Fame Monster were counted together or separately, right?
The Fame and The Fame Monster went #1 at different times. Thus if The Fame went #1 a year later when The Fame Monster went #1, it obviously goes to TFM because that's why the sales were coming in the first place.
