People are so concerned with success here. I would rather have Gaga release some mind blowing experimental stuff and flop then release a boring dance album.

And Someone Like You has already outsold it in the UK as well.

Going 4x platinum back then is WAY more impressive than 5x now because digital is steadily growing more popular, but you know that already.

As an artist I would rather release one mind blowing album and then fade rather then roll out mediocre album after mediocre album.

So you'd rather be a One Hit Wonder remembered as an artist couldn't live up to the hype of their first album as opposed to someone who moves several million with every album and still sells out tours despite having minimal promotion?

Cute for you.

Worldwide All-time Track Chart:

#28 Bleeding Love - Leona Lewis / Syco Music - 2008 - 10.420.000 points

#76 Rolling in the Deep - Adele / XL Recordings - 2011 - 8.689.000 points

"Bleeding Love" hit #1 in 17 countries; "Rolling in the Deep" hit #1 in 9 countries. She was a one-hit wonder though.

Rolling in the deep still banks 130k a week, and don't forget the incoming grammys & after xmas digital boom week. I think 10M points will be accumulated by next year. Not sure after that. If it wins Record of the Year, then i'd say it'll go over Bleeding Love in no time as long as it can stick to top 40 ww for a while.

But generally speaking, Bleeding Love was better known, at least in the younger circles.

Seriously? Bleeding Love and RITD were both absolutely huge, about equal on the smash scale, but let's not forget about the fact that Leona Lewis barely managed to keep interest going long enough for her second single to do decently, while SLY and SFTTR are worldwide hits and Adele manages to pull BOMT album sales in a Teenage Dream-era of music.

Where is her 20 million? GIRL

Bentley, I'm not quite sure what you're asking.

By irrelevancy, do you mean not being in the public eye as much, taking a break in between albums, continuing to make music yet remaining low-key?

Or are we talking about a complete and total flop that people don't want to hear anymore?

He isn't even making sense. And the examples he are using aren't making sense either.

So what was your post to me just about?

[Amaru]

As much as I do not like some of the choices GaGa has made this era.

Some of ya'll are delusional to think that she is going to become irrelevant next era. She is about to embark in a monstrously succesful world tour, she's had the 2nd best selling album worldwide and was this years Forbes most powerful celebrity.



Gaga is here to stay and she remains unbothered. You will all DEAL

IWG failed to chart in the UK and was one of her lowest peaking singles in many other countries. TTWE didn't do much better outside of its first week.

Ugh...who cares? The uk is NOT the only country outside the us. Britney's singles have done well in other countries...

TTWE hit the top 10 in 17 countries and IWG in 10, it did really well in korea (where it's sold 600K alone), south america, oceania and several countries in europe.

right now it's Beyonce. Her latest album and singles sales are HORRIBLE.

I would rather release one album that changes the landscape of music, sells 10s of millions and is critically acclaimed like Jagged Little Pill rather then release a bunch of forgettable but sellable albums.

I can't even take this post seriously, especially with that signature and screename.

How is Alicia irrelevant? Her sales have always been consistently well.

Beyoncé & Britney hit a bump 10 years into their careers and people are yelling "irrelevancy" yet most of the gerls who are supposedly "outshining" them hit bumps on their debut and sophomore album.

Hilarious.
