Damn you even woke the old ModGas up with this one.

So it didn’t spend more time in the top 10 than any Gaga album? Why is this thread still open. The bias towards Gaga on ATRL is getting ridiculous.

Longevity in album charts back there was quite impressive as it was all from sales.

*besides her debut, The Fame

I'm Breathless was released in May 1990, eight years into Madonna's career. Some consider it her fifth studio album or her second soundtrack, but it's her overall 7th major release. The album barely got any promotion and consisted of little cute jazz-inspired tracks and only had two singles. It was released two months after Vogue was released at a time when albums were released three weeks after their leads, and was replaced by The Immaculate Collection, leading to its short chart run. Yet, the album has spent more weeks in the top 10 on the Billboard 200 than any Lady Gaga album besides her debut album, The Fame. The question is, why? Why did Madonna's little side album, sandwiched between the massive albums Like a Prayer and The Immaculate Collection, out perform every Gaga album?

 

I'm Breathless: 3-2-3-3-3-2-2-4-5-8-9 (11 weeks)

 

The Fame Monster: 5-OUT-9-10-6 (4 weeks)

Born This Way: 1-1-2-4-8-OUT-8 (6 weeks)

ARTPOP: 1-8-7 (3 weeks)

Joanne: 1-5-OUT-2-8 (4 weeks)

Chromatica: 1-2-6 (3 weeks)

 

Great.

No one cares or remembers ‘im breathless’ …you’re talking about an acclaimed actress and vocalist, show some respect and please don’t embarrass yourself

Gaga had TWO albums with over 25 weeks in the Top 10 (The Fame and ASIB) out of six original albums. No shade to Madonna but your thread is a flop. 

She didn't sing on all the ASIB songs, so it's not entirely a Gaga album.

Madonna's Like a Virgin album spent 33 weeks in the top 10. She also had the biggest selling album of 1986, 1989, and 1990.

Gaga only has one on that list, and that's The Fame. ASIB was the 8th best seller of 2018.

ASIB has 19 songs total (not including dialogue tracks)

 

Gaga is a singer on 14/19 songs

a writer on 13/19 songs

and a producer on 16/19 songs

 

so she’s a lead singer and writer on the majority of the albums songs and provided enough content to constitute a traditional full length solo album. it’s also officially credited under her name, unlike most movie soundtracks which are credited as “various artists”. which is why Billboard, RIAA, The Grammys, and every other established organization in the music industry classify it as a Lady Gaga album just as much as they do her studio albums. the only group of people who don’t count it as “her album” exist on ATRL exclusively.

 

also Madonna’s stats are undeniably impressive and there’s a reason why she’ll always be the standard, but bringing them up doesn’t change or even address the fact the OP built a thread around a statement that is observably false, which is why they are rightfully getting dragged.

"I'm Breathless: Music from and inspired by the film Dick Tracy"

 

It's connected to a film, so then why are you excluding ASIB?
