Because it's a Tony Bennett duets album.

Should we not compare an artist to him/herself anymore and look at everything through a vacuum?

Yeah, but Tony has 50+ albums, why Duets II? That's kinda random. Why not compare it to his previous album or, even better, to his previous 2-artist collab album?

Another great week for Barbra!

Well you can't compare to something in another language so much.

Which "2-artist collab albums" have come out in the digital era aside from this?

This is normal for Gaga albums and it's still good for a jazz album. Cheek to Cheek is #7 on iTunes as we speak

Every week it's the same thing. These numbers will change as the weekend kicks in.. People have lives where they must work and not think about music until the weekend. Remember last Friday Tony and Gaga supposedly had no chance for number one. Barbara band wagon was rolling fast just like now. Until the final numbers came in - Tony/Gaga number one. Wait until the final numbers are in late Sunday.

PS: It's a great album. Best singing ever by Lady Gaga- Tony at his usual best.

Very bad numbers for Lady A
Their last era did great damages it seems, fyi Golden debuted at #1 on the BB200 with 167k sold but after the first single Downtown reached #1 they had a flop and rushed out a deluxe edition of the album which produced another #1 in Compass. I was expecting 120-125k for 747 but oh well.

Terrible numbers for Country Awards favourite Blake Shelton. His Last album opened at #1 with 199k copies sold and had like 5 #1s or something and went to sell 1M+. He's even ALWAYS on tv thanks To the Voice so kii.

Maybe the album is horrible

Frozen ahead of Tove Lo

So we're supposed to compare completely unrelated artists' albums to Tony Bennett's instead of Tony's to Tony's?

The Script

[Losing my ground]

Barbra

Tove Lo remains steady

So you can't compare to something that has a few songs in Spanish, but comparing to something that has 16 more artists is fine?

Meanwhile, C2C is up to #4 and #75 on iTunes
I'd at least wait until the numbers are in before dragging. Wouldn't want egg on your face for the 2nd time

I'd say Blake's new album is doing decently considering he only announced a single/album about a month ago

[Sept]

Only 90k for Blake

[Flawfree]

Welp, at least it's not Gaga's typical 85% decrease. Slay?

you're just desperately looking for any way you can say C2C is doing bad

Both of Tony's #1 albums feature Gaga. This is Tony's first 2-person collab album to go #1. It way outdid everyone's predictions just give it up

I wouldn't know, i don't care for that person there are far more talented male country artists than him, like Aldean, Keith, Luke so!
