Apples388 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 It's all been so low-key. I know the discussion at the moment is US-based, but it's even worse in the UK. At least the US had Superbowl (massive promo) and GMAYL went Top 10 (even if it was "bought"). In the UK GMAYL was a complete flop; no one saw the Superbowl apart from hardcore fans (1:00am on Sunday anyone?) and no one even knows she has a new album out. I was playing it today at work and one of my colleagues asked, "Oh I didn't realise she had a new album out." She did like "I'm Addicted" though.

erotica blu Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 It's going to be really embarrassing if she debuts at lower than two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, it's either M or InterScope/LiveNation to blame. I know she's busy with the rehearsal, but she should be put a week just to promote her shit. As fans, we did our best, i guess. Perhaps they already know the number of how many albums were sold and how far ahead from Lionel's new album, that's why they don't even budge. Trying to be optimistic here.

ashtangi74 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 when shes cashing her half-billion touring check I dont think she'll give a fuck! if that was her attitude than why desperately trying to score a hit single the last albums with 4minutes and gmayl and working with fresh young hip stars. i do think she gives a rats arse but thinks her status alone will be enough to give her a number one album in the us and uk. i hope so.. she promoted the hell out of her movie, she could ve done a little more for the album..

Butter9 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I hope she does get to Number 1 but it seems like she doesn't care. Just focusing on the tour. She knows she made a good album and that the majority of her fan ( apart from a few psychos who dubbed it " worst album of the year -and it's only MArch!" ) are very happy with MDNA. But to be beaten to number one by Lionel 'Hello is it me you're looking for' Richie ?????FOR SHAME ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erotica blu Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 when shes cashing her half-billion touring check I dont think she'll give a fuck! All of her studio albums from the previous decade were able to debut at number one. In the end she doesn't sell anymore except high front loaded debut week. Without it—what's the point?

Trying to be optimistic here. yeah it's strange they made it a point to say she was doing no promo during the Jimmy Fallon interview, I wonder if they know the numbers will be great and want to say they did it with no promo. They wouldn't have factored in Lionel Richie though, too late to do anything about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashtangi74 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 don't give up hope guys....she still can reach no. 1: she is battling with lionel on itunes.....there are other places where the album can be bought and that count for the bb hot 100.. i hoping she gets to number1!!

Did she even do any promo for W.E. in England like tv interviews? I'm surprised she's completely shunning the UK. Is this revenge cause of Guy? It's all so bizarre.

Guest Xanthium Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Does she know the UK loves her more than fickle America? She's an idiot if she doesn't realize this. I can understand her courting the US this era because she wants more success in America but to basically shun the UK, which have worshipped her and done right by her for so long, is just ridiculous. I mean, the US has been so shitty to her for so long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that's who she genuinely is and not some warmed over expat but...her focus on electronic music from European producers has served her well from Ray of Light forward. The fact remains she's a more artistically satisfying artist when she's indifferent to American trends and sensibilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ditaluver Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 i just dont think she cares if it hits #1. shes all about the touring. getting the album out and then touring. i hope its #1 I keep fucking buying it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernatural Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 What do you mean? No difference promotion-wise or how the countries treat her? No difference promo-wise. UK have always been better consumers for her, they usually support pop acts while it goes in and out of style in the US. Madonna is doing a ton of dates all over the US, superbowl was more a push for that than the new album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest groovyguy Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 read this: http://www.thegrio.com/entertainment/lionel-richie-has-going-country-resurrected-his-career.php Combined with his HSN blowout, industry experts are projecting that Tuskegee will sell 75,000 to 100,000 copies in its first week. i don't think the shows he has arranged for the rest of the week will spike his sales to at least 2 times more to beat out mdna. so we can heave a sigh of relief.

Flip The Switch Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 By Lauren Kreisler Madonna's MDNA leads the charge for Number 1 album Her twelfth studio album has seen the Queen of Pop collaborating with top flight dance producers including William Orbit, LMFAO and Benny Benassi, and features single Girl Gone Wild, the video for which harked back to Madonna's classic Erotica days. MDNA is looking like a solid Number 1 for the 53 year old pop icon this weekend, and leads today by a cool 29,000 copies. New entries and climbers The release of the Complete Confection edition of the Katy Perry's sugary-sweet Teenage Dream album has bounced the album 29 places skywards to Number 5 today. Noah Stewart's debut album Noah Stewart is on track to enter at Number 10. With his sportsman-like good looks and sharp dress sense, Noah Stewar appears every bit the pop star. However, while you could easily mistake the Harlem, New York native for the lead singer of a boyband or a soulful, R&B crooner, he is, in fact, a classically trained opera star. Noah released his debut, self-titled album yesterday (Monday, March 26), so officialcharts.com decided to get him in for a chat to find out how he is managing to balance his career as an opera singer (he is currently performing at London's Royal Opera House in Judith Weir's Miss Fortune) with being a rising chart star. Madonna's MDNA leads the charge for Number 1 album A further flurry of new entries litter the Official Albums Chart Update Top 40 today - Iron Maiden's En Vivo (11), Shinedown's Amaryllis (14), Alter Bridge's Live At Wembley European Tour 2011 (15), All American Rejects' Kids In The Street (21), Karl Jenkins' Peacemakers (29), Mars Volta's Noctourniquet (31), Blood Red Shoes' In Time To Voices (36) and Madonna's The Complete Studio Albums completes today's albums rundown. The full Official Albums Chart Update Top 40 is as follows: OFFICIAL ALBUMS CHART UPDATE TOP 40 01 MDNA - MADONNA 02 NOTHING BUT THE BEAT - DAVID GUETTA 03 21 - ADELE 04 OUR VERSION OF EVENTS - EMELI SANDE 05 TEENAGE DREAM - KATY PERRY 06 WHO YOU ARE - JESSIE J 07 SONIK KICKS - PAUL WELLER 08 IN MY DREAMS - MILITARY WIVES 09 MYLO XYLOTO - COLDPLAY 10 NOAH - NOAH STEWART 11 EN VIVO - IRON MAIDEN 12 BORN TO DIE - LANA DEL REY 13 + - ED SHEERAN 14 AMARYLLIS - SHINEDOWN 15 LIVE AT WEMBLEY - EUROPEAN TOUR 2011 - ALTER BRIDGE 16 WRECKING BALL - BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN 17 SORRY FOR PARTY ROCKING - LMFAO 18 MAKING MIRRORS - GOTYE 19 GEMS - THE VERY BEST OF - MICHAEL BOLTON 20 HOME AGAIN - MICHAEL KIWANUKA 21 KIDS IN THE STREET - ALL-AMERICAN REJECTS 22 DOO-WOPS & HOOLIGANS - BRUNO MARS 23 19 - ADELE 24 UP ALL NIGHT - ONE DIRECTION 25 EL CAMINO - BLACK KEYS 26 HANDS UP - THE ALBUM - JUSTIN FLETCHER 27 CEREMONIALS - FLORENCE & THE MACHINE 28 STEREO TYPICAL - RIZZLE KICKS 29 THE PEACEMAKERS - CROWE/HANSLIP/BELL/LSO/JENKINS 30 IN CASE YOU DIDN'T KNOW - OLLY MURS 31 NOCTOURNIQUET - MARS VOLTA 32 TALK THAT TALK - RIHANNA 33 NOEL GALLAGHER'S HIGH FLYING BIRDS - NOEL GALLAGHER'S HIGH FLYING 34 PORT OF MORROW - SHINS 35 WATCH THE THRONE - JAY-Z & KANYE WEST 36 IN TIME TO VOICES - BLOOD RED SHOES 37 PINK FRIDAY - NICKI MINAJ 38 SECRET SYMPHONY - KATIE MELUA 39 THE COMPLETE STUDIO ALBUMS 1983-2008 - MADONNA 40 FALLEN EMPIRES - SNOW PATROL © 2012 The Official Charts Company http://www.officialc...r-1-album-1308/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
