In the long history of North American music, single sales have never been able to compete with records, but even so, there are only two albums that have sold over one million a week in history. One is 1993 Whitney Houston. The original soundtrack of the same name sang for the movie "Bodyguard", and one is the album "Challenge" by the representative of the grunge rock band Pearl Sauce in the same year.

The Japanese music market currently sells more than two million albums in a single week. It is possible to count in detail-although there are not many, but unlike the Japanese market, the US market is not explosive enough, and more is the ability to continue to sell. From 1962 to 1963, the original soundtrack of the "West Side Story (west... held the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Albums Chart for a whole year. This ability is unmatched.

Therefore, in the North American market, there are not so many albums that have sold over 500,000 in a single week. As for singles, they are even rarer. Prior to this, no single in North America had a single weekly sales that could cross the 500,000 threshold. Whitney's theme song "Exhausted" sung for "Wake Up to Dream" is the current weekly sales champion. , When it was released in November last year, it achieved 410,000 sales in a single week.

However, now history has turned upside down. An unparalleled war of the century completely rewritten the history of the music market, just as "Independence Day" turned out to change the history of the film market.

"Young Volcano (. took only two days to become the first single in the history of North American music that sold more than 500,000 in a single week, and within a week it even increased the scale of this record to one hundred. Above all, this is almost an impossible benchmark.

Following the opening of a new chapter in the film market, a new era in the music market has slowly begun. The impact of "Young Volcano" in a single week of millions of sales will not be inferior to the power of "Independence Day" in a single week of box office. Stormy waves have been set off throughout the North American market.

As the creator of a new record, Glory to the death achieves the summit with a kingly position!

In the face of Hugo’s power, everyone has lost the ability to speak. Although people have always known that Hugo has made brilliant achievements in both singers and actors, at this moment-"Independence Day" has just been Breaking 500 million, the "young volcano" has just broken one million-people deeply feel the absolute dominance of the Uranus superstar. Almost all summer, from July to September, Hugo swept through North America with a destructive attitude. The market destroys people's ideas and refreshes historical records.

At this moment, even if compared to Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable, who starred in "Gone with the Wind" who changed the history of movies, even compared to Steven Spielberg, who was born with the "Jaws", Even if compared to Michael Jackson, who delivered 100 million-level sales with "Thriller", even compared to George Lucas, who filmed "Star Wars" to create a cultural genre... it is absolutely not inferior!

Everything is as expected by David Geffen. After winning Monday’s one-day sales championship strongly, he showed unparalleled momentum, not only because Hugo is now in full swing, but also because of glory to death. The spiritual core of this band has invisibly changed history and affected society. This is an unstoppable force in the wheel of history.

Although it is said that Tuesday’s champion was pulled out by Maria’s teeth, in fact, the strength of glory to death has maintained a frequency from beginning to end, unlike Maria and the Oasis band, which focused on one day to erupt with a terrifying force, and then began to force. exhaust. Maria and the Oasis band are drinking poison to quench their thirst, exploding their potential ahead of time, but Glory to Death is not. Their abilities have reached a sufficient height and continue to continue steadily.

Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Glory to Death always leads in single-day sales every day, Yiqi Juechen, and won the first battle of the War of the Century with an absolute advantage. On Monday, it was like Normandy in World War II. After being conquered by glory to the death, the victories thereafter were as if they were broken. Because Monday concentratedly embodied the powerful momentum of Glory to Death in North America - and even its power in the world. Even in the face of Maria, even in the face of Oasis, Glory to Death has a appeal that rivals cannot match.

1.07 million, a number that never lies, gives the most intuitive, effective and vivid answer. This is the epitome of the current glory to death's influence on the entire North American market.

But it is undeniable that the reason why the War of the Century is so exciting and the reason why the sales volume in the first week of Glory to Death was able to break the one million sky is because the competitors are strong enough, and the three pillars are combined with enough topical effects, which broke out. Such incredible sales data.

This is not only a glorious victory, but also a victory for Maria and Oasis, and a victory for the entire North American music market.

In the first battle of the war of the century, Maria showed strong combat effectiveness and even demonstrated the potential for dominance several times, allowing people to once again appreciate the power of "sweet day" sweeping sixteen weeks, "Sweetheart." Although the overall quality of this single did not bring surprises, relying on Maria's appeal, it still sold 790,000 copies!

In just one week, 790,000 copies were sold. Even the album sales are enough to make people smile, let alone singles. "Sweetheart" not only became the single that sold more than 500,000 in a single week in the second week of music history, she surpassed her powerful competitor Whitney in one fell swoop and became the most popular female singer in the North American market. The ability to challenge Whitney.

At the same time, the popularity of "Sweetheart" has pushed the combination of pop, rhythm and blues, and hip-hop to a new peak, officially marking the American music market's acceptance of this new attempt. Since then, R&B has truly entered the mainstream stage, and it can be said that it has directly opened up a new genre. Since then, many excellent ones have emerged including Mary Blige, Mother of Heaven, Alicia Keys (.keys), etc. Female singer.

However, although "Sweetheart"'s sales of 790,000 copies were appalling, compared with "Young Volcano"'s one-week sales of 1.07 million, it was suddenly overshadowed. Only on Monday, the gap between "Sweetheart" and "Young Volcano" is still within reach. Maria even completed a counterattack on Tuesday, but who can predict the final weekly sales of the two singles? There will be such a big gap.

"Young Volcano" can be said to have completely exploded its competitors without any suspense. The sales gap of about 280,000 is a gap that can never be crossed for the North American music market-many singles cannot be sold for a whole week. With a sales volume of 280,000, almost all singles that can get such a result can win the championship smoothly, and this is just the gap between the two singles.

It is truly shocking and vividly interprets the phrase "where there is a comparison, there is a gap."

As for the Oasis band in the away game, the overall weakness can be seen from their sales trajectory. In addition to the Monday where the energy is concentrated, there is also the Thursday where all the forces are concentrated to achieve a counterattack. For most of the past week, the Oasis The band is in a state of struggling to catch up, and the three-legged stand that people originally hoped is more like a duo of Glory to Death and Maria.

Of course, this is unfair. "Do you know what I mean" sold 510,000 copies in a week. This is not only the best performance of foreign singers in the US market, but also surpassed most American singers to become the first in history. Three singles with a weekly sales volume of over 500,000. This achievement alone is enough to justify the name of Oasis.

The cruelty of the war of the century is that the three competitors are strong, and the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road. This is an eternal law. This has been vividly demonstrated by Oasis Band. Although it has achieved a record-setting weekly sales record of 510,000, it has greatly compared the British competitors such as the goatskin band, the radio commander, the Shen Yun band, and the stain band. Leaving behind, even touching the height that the Beatles had not been able to reach before, it deserves to be called "the greatest band after the Beatles" by the British media; but even so, in front of Maria, in front of the glory to death, The Oasis band still ushered in a fiasco, a fiasco without any room for quibble.

"Do you know what I mean?" A total of 280,000 less sales than "Sweetheart", such a gap-still irreparable, let alone compared with "Young Volcano": "You know mine Do you mean?" The sales volume of "Young Volcano" has not even reached half.

This is a massacre, a massacre without a doubt.

The Gallagher brothers of the Oasis band have been clamoring, provocative, rampant, and jumping But all their previous actions today look so ridiculous and sad, as if Like a juggling clown, full of ugliness. The original curses and swear words of the Gallagher brothers have now become evidence of their embarrassment, and they can only make them feel ashamed.

However, the tenacity of Oasis has far exceeded expectations. As many people have said, this is the best performance achieved by a foreign singer in North America. This data alone is sufficient to prove the current popularity of Oasis; Maria’s strength is even greater. It was to make this matchup exciting. Although the suspense was not maintained to the last moment, the glorious victory was definitely not easy to come by.

It is precisely because of the outstanding performance of the three parties that this makes this century's war so beautiful. Whether it’s the glory of a strong victory to death, whether it’s Maria who regrets the defeat, or the lackluster follow-up Oasis, this is a war where the winner is decided but there is no loser.

Now that the Normandy landing has become a thing of the past, the long journey has just begun. The next two and three weeks...there are three singers’ official albums, which will continue this war of the century until Truly decide the final outcome.

However, before the end of the Normandy landing, in addition to the North American market, there were duels in other regions of the world, and the first battle was also decided!
