Madonna :: Charts & Sales History

[MadNuno]

Her team really need to figure out how to boost Erotica, Bedtime Stories and American Life - it’s going to take the best part of a decade before they see 100m streams.

Yes... they need to do something about it.
The only thing needed would be to have a song from each of those albums heavily featured on a A-list serie or movie.
"Material Girl" literaly exploded after being featured on "Stranger Things".

"Rain", "Deeper and Deeper", "Bad Girl" or "Erotica" could work great for Erotica.
"Secret" or "Human Nature" would do wonders for Bedtime Story
"Hollywood" or "Love Profusion" would increase American Life album streams.

This would also help YouTube streams for these songs audio, videos and remixes.

[Artoo]

there's a way to boost not only erotica but her whole discography, her fans need to start streaming them, that's how you do it, isn't just a team problem at this point

It’s mostly playlists that have increased her other albums streams though. ‘This is Madonna’, for example, only has one song from the Erotica album and Bedtime Stories album, almost 50 songs deep into it. The first ten songs from that playlist are all in her top 11 most streamed songs (in the list above).

Like a Virgin has over 420 million streams but almost 400 million of that come from Like a Virgin and Material Girl alone. So her team absolutely need to do more to give her streaming visibility.

Exactly, I'm a regular at Pulse Music Board and there are at least 5 Madonna fans there, if not more, that don't even stream, and they follow the charts. It makes no sense to me.

^Why is up so much one week and down the next week?

Growing inpatient at how long it is taking "Madonna" to get to 100 million. HURRY

Do you mean 200?

^Let the fans buy the digital EPs if they want to. Some like to buy. Some like to stream.

This keeps Madonna's name out there when she is not releasing new music.

Exactly! This keeps her older hits being talked about and listened for the very first time by many people (mostly under 25yo). This is a great way to keep her name going. Besides all these songs sold/streamed are being added to her grand total single sales/album sales (when it's the album version streamed/sold). Also these sales and streams will help a few songs to be certified/re-certified sooner in some countries too.

[paperinobz]

I think fan shouldn't buy her digital EP or they will continue dropping an EP remix every month. In 2030 they stll wouldn't have finished.
wouldn't be Better to let all of her discography being available on Spotify and iTunes?

[Artoo]

I don't get it, is she not releasing her old music videos in HD anymore? I can't believe she didn't release Express Yourself nor Beautiful Stranger…

I think they will be released, but they’re just taking their time and spreading it out a bit. One a month shouldn’t be too much of an ask though.

In the UK, the general public only saw Madonna perform Future - I love the song, but a heavily panned performance of an album track was never going to sell albums.

[Paulmark]

When Madonna had huge success on the past 25 years she did promote the lead singles and other singles singing them on TV many times. Madonna should have performed a couple of songs to promote the album and not just that chat on MTV, Graham and Ryland (and Jimmy Fallon). It's also her fault the songs didn't have more promotion as she didn't expose people to her songs on those shows and only to herself. She didn't even bother to promote them (she sang lead single once at Billboard Awards and an album track at the Eurovision - weird promotion that did little for the album on the long run).

Agreed!!

[MadNuno]

I guess the lack of air play on the radio didn't help with the singles/album. At least she did do some promotional interviews with Graham Norton & Ryland to promote Madame X. I think on the Graham show she did come off a bitchy .

What's more shocking is the different releases of the album still haven't got the album to Silver status.

I can’t believe it either. Criminal! I assume most of her fanbase bought the album, so her streaming points must not be adding to much in the end. I hope it isn’t too far away from those 60k copies.
