So she's still consistant with the decline in sales 
These are still bad for her but with Katy Perry you have to think in the long run, so it will be fun to bump this thread at the end of the Olympics

Mine aren't debut singles as you can see...
Mine are best selling songs in a week.

I would be expecting more from Katy since she's a HUGE force, but considering the sales decline over years and the fact that Roar was much more powerful and catchy this are still good numbers. Congrats girls!
P.S. Slay Sia, go get that #1 on Hot 100

This is the healthy way to look at all of this, music in general. I have to disagree about the quality of the tracks, though, Make Me is alright, but Rise is an absolute dud.
I'm just happy that the best track, "Cheap Thrills" is winning this battle, the song, and Sia, deserve it so much.

No, Taylor is obviously the real digital queen. And yes, time is the ultimate truth teller, and time is telling quite an ugly truth about the state of Katy's career right now.

Considering this is likely the most Rise will sell in a single week, your list is more relevant.

The fact that everyone thought Sia might never get close to Chandelier's success again

Sia has both a remix and the orginal song charting and they're counting it as one...let's not act like its such an accomplishment.

She's coming for that billboard #1! And no one deserves this success more than her, especially with everything she's been through in life and the fact that she's been pumping out high quality music for over a decade now, and has only started seeing big success in the last few years. I just hope they pick the right follow up single after "Cheap Thrills" to keep the momentum going and to get her another hit. I'm thinking "Reaper" might be the best choice.

Your post makes no sense.  1.1M was BTW's album sales, 219K was Applause's sales.
