You were expecting 400k pre orders from iTunes when Red did 465k total digital copies first week

With pre-orders she should be easily doing more than Begin Again and IKYWT did 416K so its not like I was expecting something impossible from her.

Think with logic, her fans are pre-ordering the album, the same people who bought BA without pre-ordering RED, there are no reasons for her to do more,

can you see the pattern here?

Begin Again - 299k
Red - 312k
I Knew You Were Trouble - 416k

Pre-Orders are for fans, the GP waits for more songs to decide if they want the album or not

Are you talking about 1989 or OOTW cause I only expected 200K pre-orders for 1989. I was talking about OOTW which should have sales around 350K.

nnnnn I think the good cyster Dani meant the fans have already pre ordered the album so they're not going to buy the song. Pre order number + expected sales for Out of the Closet = 300k+ which is slightly more than the number of people who bought Begin Again on the first week where we can draw the conclusion that OotW has generated more interest for 1989 than Begin Again did for Red XoXtina

That's what I am trying to say too. I expected more because her performance on first day was better than Begin Again without pre-orders. Thats why I expected OOTW to sale around 350K.

OOTW is selling the album which is what a promo single is supposed to do. Wait for the official #s to judge its performance.

[atishvaze]

I think our preorder number are way off. She probably has less than 150K pre orders.

that's true but let s not pretend that OOTW makes 1989 reach IKYWTs numbers or at a lower level Begin Again. 1989 was above Jason Aldean who s supposed to do 90k this week with 40k digitally (the average physical/digital ratio for a country act). Florida Georgia line should do 190k(90k digitally)therefore 1989 does 40k at least and 90k max

edit:
it s good but I expected more assuming that 1989 has 175k of PR orders so far

So you think Red will accumulate 40 - 90K pre orders this week. Thats really good

[OnlyManInTheWorld]

200k is not bad. I was expecting 100-150k

Was Begin Again freefalling like this. If I remember correctly, It wasn't freefalling like this

None of her Red promo singles died as fast as Out of the Top. And they had no pre-orders.

They had no preorders thats why they didn't free fall.

Give it a break. 200K is good enough given the sales climate.

Why are bb and hdd mum on her preorder numbers? Do they hate her? This could explain why they changed the instant grats rule right before she releases her promo singles.
