Don't agree LYTLM was a quick song, mostly pushed by hype (and her begging the fans) as you said, it was dead on arrival..but for the whole era..no one was here for it after they heard it Scarlet, PTTR was big..but she also had Agora Hills which also did pretty good numbers (and is deemed as the official 2nd single) For Bey, both did around the same level for their respective format don't think one was bigger than the other Unapologetic did good? It was the 9th most successful album WW that year maybe D and WFL was too huge tho, for it to be able to keep up.. but being Top10 isn't bad (for someoneon who has been deemed so many times a bad album seller and just a singles artist)

I guess I meant that the singles totally overshadowed and outperformed the album to an almost absurd degree. The album was basically DOA (for multiple reasons) with these walls being the only song to generate ANY buzz post release and that was mainly bubbling under iirc. Felt like that fit OP's parameters
