  2. It would only work in Murica. I remember that Robbie Williams was at least selling his underwear. US European know how it's done.
  3. In 1995 Janet was voted the most popular female artist by the BRAVO Magazine (Germany's biggest youth magazine that had a weekly circulation of 1,5 million copies at the time). She won over Mariah / Madonna / Whitney etc. I often bring it up bc I was a hardcore stan of that magazine and people today do not know that a magazine like BRAVO was everything for teenagers in the 70s, 80s and 90s... it was our only source for celebrity news... or stars we cared about. Magazines played a huge part in celebrity culture before the internet. BRAVO was its entire empire... with music compilation albums, all of which (even the 2026 ones) reaching #1 on the Germany charts, some even sold a million copies or more here. The magazine also had its own TV show (every Sunday) and live concert events that were televised. People may ridicule me again for bringing all of this up, but if you didn't experience celebrity culture before social media and the internet, you should not judge what those who experience those times in real live, experienced. janet was a major, major, major hardcore mega-uber star in Germany in the 90s. She won the following BRAVO Awards: (voted for by the readers of the magazine): 1990 - Bronze 1993 - Gold 1994 - Silver 1995 - Gold 1997 - Bronze Once more, Germany had no MTV back in the day... not MTV for German people at that. MTV Germany launched in 1997. And I don't know if ATRL knows this, but English is not the first language of Germany. So, MTV was completely irrelevant for most German teens back in the day due to the language barrier... and I mean MTV's news programming or documentaries about our most popular acts. This whole Janet is unknown narrative is so annoying.

    I'd rather buy lube.
  5. I don't. Swift behaves like Trump.
  6. Preach. Also CM: 1986 - 7m USA - 2,2m Intl - Control 1989 - 8m USA - 2,8m Intl - Rhythm Nation 1993 - 8m USA - 4,6m Intl - Janet 1995 - 4m USA - 4,3m Intl - Design of a Decade 1997 - 3,8m USA - 3,65m Intl - The Velvet Rope 2001 - 3,3m USA - 2,6m Intl - All For You Those 6 albums shifted 34,1m in the US and 20,15m internationally. Janet gets hate, but sold twice as much internationall as J.Lo or Xtina. I mean... make it make sense.
  7. sth like that has never happened. If you're selling 10m in the US, you automatically sell albums in Canada, UK, maybe Australia too. People called this local: 6,400,000 - USA 665,000 - UK 340,000 - Japan 325,000 - Canada 190,000 - France 145,000 - GER 130,000 - Australia 90,000 - Brazil etc. (more sales in basically all music industries that have a chart). Your example is just too extreme, it never happened in the real world. Just bc someone sells more in individual countries, does not mean that the statistic above does not represent a global reach. The global / local claim is even weirder today with streaming, which is way more globally distributed / accessible than sales ever were. Also perceived local acts from Japan or Korea or other territories who are selling in a dozen countries, must be considered global... because how are we to say that certain countries weigh more than others... if you're selling well in China, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Phillippines, Thailand, Taiwan etc... how is that less global than someone who is selling well in UK, France, Germany, Netherlands, Italy and Spain? It does not make sense. ... and we have to always factor in that there are more official charts and official charts companies today than there ever were in the history of recorded music. Someone in the 70s (a western act) had no access to the Soviet markets, China did not have a viable music industry until idk the 2010s, a Soviet act was not selling in the western world... Germany for example created its nationalized music industry / chart in 1965 (and revamped it in 1977 to what it is today). Yes, the big western music industries established their charts between 1958 - 1970s. So, was Ella Fitzgerald therefore local? I think we need music history education, so that we can have in depth and context based discussions and not these "I feel like..." convictions passed off as reality.
  8. It's mostly Madonna fans, not even Xtinct or J.Lo stans. IF the 3rd best selling female albums act in all of music history is not global... then what does that make the lower ranked girls... I often asked myself.

  9. U forgot to mention, that Christina debuted at the alltime sales peak (1999-2003).
  10. Glitter was a #1 smash in Japan, selling more there than Taylor's entire discography. Sometimes things perceived as successful, really are not. (CB is home to Mariah's 5th biggest hit on streaming).
  11. ... Carey also had a mega smash hit single in 2003 (pre Emancipation). And CB opened with her 2nd biggest debut ever at that point (2002).
  12. That's indeed mega weird. If streams can be reset to 0 what does that mean for the charts?
  13. He could have added, that the USA loves bombing schools with children in them. (Girls, preferably). U know, school girls between the ages of 6 - 12 have always been the most dangerous enemy of the United States (and to world peace) - Republicans.
