An album or a single can be a smash in terms of sales by two means: longevity (racking up sales thru accumulation over a period of time but never hitting #1 in charts) or huge first week of sales (#1 debut) (racking up almost 70% of the entire sales during the first week). Which is the more relevant? Discuss.
I don't know about M-D-N-A he is part of this blog and I can't understand his actions as well, the fake stans we have detected are madonnas and Dullenlightment,
Happy, free, confused and lonely
Happy = definition of gay. Free because 22 is the time to explore your sexuality. Confused about Her sexuality. Lonely because She doesn't know who She can talk to about Her desires. :jonny:
longetivity. even albums with not great debuts (Teenage Dream) managed to get decent total sales due to it, while you have albums like Electra Heart and Trespassing (which both are great) that debut at #1, but just can't keep it up.
It's always a nightmare, it's never a dream, the promise we make to kill the days between Miss Jay Pierce'sDemos! My last.fm!
I'd say longevity prevails a huge debut, but it depends on the artist. Madonna, for example, is long past her peak but was able to have a huge debut for MDNA, which is very impressive in my books, despite the album sadly falling thereafter.

Mariah had both. One Sweet Day debuted and peaked at number one, and stayed there for an astonishing 16 weeks.

But I had to choose one, I would choose longevity.
