This is great, considering how she's an indie artist who took four years off, has literally no hit supporting it, and Jimmy Fallon is her one and only promo slot. 

 

With the buzz and great reviews, I do hope that the album will sell consistently.

So the #1s have been Hopeless Fountain Kingdom, Witness and now Melodrama? I love this.

Not that trash. :fish2: 

I mean it was at no.3, so it would have been blocked by the no.2 album at the time anyway hadn't he released at the time. :'(

Great numbers for her, honestly.

 

I hope anyone don't try to say "underwhelming!!1"

 

1st of all she don't have a huge fanbase

2nd she didn't had a hit this era

3rd her long break

4th the album is not generic/she's not a "main pop girl"

5th it's 2017

 

Pulling almost 100k considering all of this, she slayed. I was expecting 70k SPS but 90k is excellent :clap3:

Why are y'all like "ooooooooh thats low"?

 

This is more than Pure Heroine, and Pure Heroine had Royals to back it up.

I was expecting higher numbers, especially in streaming, but these are pretty good considering she's been gone for awhile and Green Light wasn't a big hit.

Why people consider GL as a flop?

 

Top 20 single is not a flop.

It didnt have charting longevity. It debuted and peaked?

It's pretty good. We've known she's on a sophomore slump and she has nothing playing on the radio right now, so this shows she can sell on her name. Important

 

Seriously though, why did her label mess her up? Green Light peaked 2 months ago. There are at least 3 songs on the album they could have launched in May. Instead, they pushed the album back and had her perform a dead song at the BBMA's

Pure Heroine did 129k but I agree that these numbers are quite good for her given the circumstances
