Madonna :: Charts & Sales History

[CandyShop]

Very good number for RH in USA considering the stage in her career

If only her next one could match those sales......

It's really great to see that it's all very mixed, when it comes to the time periods in which the songs or albums came out. It's not like you can say we love her old music better than the new. She's really proven you can transcend generations and music trends. Of course, I'm a Madonna fan, so I already knew this. But I've never really looked at the numbers like this before. Thanks. Great job!

They took my list which I recently posted on ATRL. If anyone wants to see the breakdown for Madonna:

United States: 12
Japan: 0
United Kingdom: 13
Germany: 4
France: 3
Australia: 11
Canada: 25
Italy: 23
Netherlands: 5
Sweden: 6
Spain: 22
Switzerland: 9
Belgium: 7
Austria: 2
Norway: 7
Denmark: 4
Finland: 14
Ireland: 8
New Zealand: 5

Those were the countries I used for my thread. 23 in Italy, 25 in Canada and 22 Spain is such an insane amount. What a legend.

Thank you!

In Germany, two of Madonna's albums are currently uncertified: 'MDNA' and 'Rebel Heart'. I have both albums' sales estimated at ~ 80k and ~ 100k, so 'Rebel Heart' should eventually reach gold there. When it comes to 'MDNA'... I don't see it happening anytime soon as the album is not really a catalogue seller. Maybe with a discount here and there in the looooong run...
