Madonna :: Charts & Sales History

[MadNuno]

The 5.9M number for 21 was a typo in the OCC article, they omitted the 0, the exact number is 5.09M and that number is pure sales, without streaming. All the numbers for albums in that article are pure sales

Thanks for clarifyng! That makes total sense now.

[Hijakint]

So "21" still wasn't certified for 5.4 million sales and award certifications are automatic.This means the album didn't sold the 5.9 million the Official Chart Company says it did. Certifications also take streaming into account in UK. Unfortunally Offiicial Charts company mixes up the sales figure often very badly (for all artists) even stating different sales for the same artists records time and again. A total mess.

paramount is bigger in europe than usa?

It won't play on Paramount in Europe and other countries where Paramount doesn't exist. It will be broadcast by MTV which is bigger as they will certainly have promos during at least 1 or 2 weeks promoting the show.

paramount is bigger in europe than usa?

Nope, it doesn't even exist in most of the countries but I definitely think that MTV is bigger in Europe than Paramount+ is in America.
Even though MTV's ratings are very bad in Europe now, the effect on the sales will all be on the same day (after the broadcast), while Paramount's effect will be more spread out since people will be able to watch it whenever they want.

paramount is bigger in europe than usa?

In fact, according to Wiki, is only available in Nordic countries in Europe since March 2021. It’ll be launched in 2022 in some other European countries.
So, no, Paramount+ is not big in Europe at all.

Hi everyone, please stream True Blue this week!

[mdna87]

Really hoping to see Madame X rising on iTunes next month. I know it won't sell thousands but I'm still excited to see if MTV showing the concert will have an impact. I don't think Paramount+ will have any impact in the US but I still have faith in Europe.

Also hoping they release a song from the show on YouTube soon, hopefully one from Madame X!

Did the cover of ‘Material Girl’ by Idina Menzel in the new Cinderella movie had any impact on streaming/YouTube views? The movie is free on Amazon prime.

It had a very small effect but it still had one.
YouTube views this week were higher than the week before, and there was an increase from the date of release (September 3.) It’s getting around 7-10k more views every day than before.
Nothing spectacular but still enjoyable!

No idea about Spotify!

Not sure why but in US it's almost always 80's Madonna that sells... they should really put some of her 90's and 00's biggest hits on some high profile movies right now.
In most European countries it seems Madonna best selling albums on iTunes are mostly all since COADF but Madame X is nowhere to be seen. I really hope this MTV broadcast can add it "Madame X" to the mix. Also "Rebel Heart" really is a strong catalog seller (is her only album inside Brazil TOP 100 too).

9. Human Nature

Not sure why "Rescue Me" and "Human Nature" are now TOP 10 in Finland iTunes but it's nice to see that.

Not sure how streams are put "Celebration" got its second platinum in UK back in 2017 already. The almost 700k Sales figure we have is from 2019 so I believe that is safe to say that during this decade this album will become another million seller album for Madonna in UK for sure. Depending on promotion (and if Warner releases any more GH packages) it should get 3rd Platinum Award before 2025 as it keeps being a steady seller (despite not selling much it's mostly inside UK iTunes TOP 500 almost everytime).

2012 Super Bowl Halftime Show just hit 15M views on YouTube

In 8 months. Imagine if it had been on youtube for 9 years. Put it in the folder of botched business decisions of the 2010s.

Good. Madonna must be mortified MG is one of her most streamed songs

I wish BIM would hurry up and get to 100m streams. It should do it the next four years, but it would be great to see her have one song per decade hitting 100m streams.

That's would be amazing! But I think PDP, CFY and ITG will get 100M Spotify plays before BIM.

[MadNuno]

It looks like "Celebration" must be with a promo price on iTunes in some countries also as is climbing on iTune charts (like TIC):
