Based on initial sales reports collected for Sunday, the diva sold about 150,000 digital albums and songs in the U.S. on Feb. 5 -- an increase of a little more than 1,000 percent compared to the previous day, when she sold around 15,000 digital albums and songs. 

 

 

Also impressive: On Super Bowl Sunday alone, Gaga sold more songs and albums digitally than she did in the entire week ending Feb. 2 -- across both physical and digital formats. In the week ending Feb. 2, Gaga sold 30,000 albums and songs, of which 26,000 were digital. In total on Sunday, Gaga sold over 125,000 song downloads -- up about 960 percent compared to the previous day (a little more than 10,000 sold). Her biggest-selling song on Feb. 5 was “Million Reasons,” which sold more than 45,000 downloads -- up nearly 900 percent compared to the previous day (about 5,000). Further, with just one day of sales, “Million Reasons” scores its best sales week ever. So far, the song -- which was released last October -- saw its best sales frame in the week ending Dec. 8, 2016, when it sold 44,000 from all digital retailers. On Super Bowl Sunday, Gaga also tallied big gains with “Bad Romance” (up 1,525 percent to over 13,000 downloads), “Born This Way” (up 2,202 percent to over 12,000) and “Poker Face” (up 1,217 percent to 10,000).

 

“Million Reasons” is from Gaga’s most recent album, Joanne, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart dated Nov. 12, 2016. Joanne was Gaga’s biggest-selling digital album on Super Bowl Sunday, with over 12,000 sold. Gaga’s second-biggest selling digital album on Sunday was The Fame Monster -- home to both "Bad Romance" and "Telephone" -- with about 6,000 sold (up from nearly nothing the previous day). Overall, Gaga’s catalog of albums sold more than 23,000 downloads on Feb. 5 -- up 1,395 percent compared to the previous day (nearly 2,000).
