??? 2.91 million, 2.91 million, 2.91 million...

In an endless loop, this set of data that looks ordinary and unremarkable is the same as the sales data of "Thriller" of 104 million (1.0 billion (for more exciting online novels, please visit Xianjie Novel Network) 0.4 billion), eternally Recorded in the annals of history, it has become the most important set of numbers in the history of world music.

At this moment, even if someone yells, "Honor to death has reserved a seat in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in advance", they cannot express people's respect for the glory to death. Because even the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is not enough to describe the crazy sales in the first week of "Blurry Rain", nor is it enough to commend the contribution made to the North American music market to the death of glory.

The 1.83 million sales data of "Stay at this moment" is insignificant. I can only watch "Blurry Rain" Yiqi Juechen, and I can't even say anything to complain, Brother Gallagher His silence is the best proof. Even the football hooligans, in the face of such a glorious situation, can only hold their tails in a dingy manner and remain silent.

The 1.98 million sales data of "Butterfly" is not worth mentioning. The huge gap is like a ditch. In front of Maria and Glory to the death, the sales gap of 930,000 in a single week is simply impossible to surpass. In the history of obstacle music, albums that have sold more than 930,000 in a single week can be counted with one hand. Even if it is as arrogant as Maria and arrogant as Maria, he can only stubbornly turn his head away and silently swallow the bitterness of failure into his stomach.

In the face of absolute strength, all words have lost their effect. Even if they are unwilling to admit it, they know deep down: This is an irresistible opponent, this is an unsurpassable achievement, and this is worthy of the whole world. The result of cheers.

Five bodies cast the ground, worship, and respect. Perhaps, at this moment, only applause for the opponent is the most correct choice, at least it can prove that he has the courage to admit defeat.

Behind the incredible achievement of 2.91 million in a single week in the "Blurry Rain", it is everyone who has witnessed the enthusiasm of the young volcano. Before Thursday, this ultimate showdown was still full of suspense, especially when Maria won the championship on Wednesday and the Oasis on Thursday overtook it. It was accompanied by an unstoppable decline in glory, which made people more embracing the weekend's battles. Much expectation. But the result...

As a result, within three days of the weekend, young volcanoes occupied every corner of major cities in North America with a prairie fire. In fact, not only young volcanoes, but many people who have no interest in music at all, will produce a glorious album. Interest. Whether it’s Hugo’s appeal or the rave reviews from the tour, the final showdown has fermented a strong fragrance, attracting countless people to the record shop and purchase the "Blurry Rain". Albums.

In the end, "Blurry Rain" won a strong sales volume of 1.42 million over three days on the weekend. This also means that the average daily sales per day is as high as 470,000 copies, which is comparable to Tuesday’s single-day sales. It will pull the two competitors far away and beat the audience in seconds. .

Until November 5th, the Recording Industry Association of America released a three-day single-day sales chart for the weekend. People then understood why the Recording Industry Association of America abandoned its daily sales data release on Friday.

Originally, people thought that it was because they wanted to keep the suspense until the last minute, making the weekend sales disputes more suspenseful; but the fact is not like this: on Friday alone, the number of "hurricanes and showers" erupted 530,000. The sales volume, two hundred and eighty thousand for "Butterfly" and two hundred and thirty thousand for "stay at this moment", directly widened the gap between the three parties, and then completely killed all suspense. In the remaining two days, Maria It is basically impossible for the Oasis Band to overtake the glory to death.

With 5.3 million sales in a single day, it became the runner-up on the single-day sales charts in the history of music. It surpassed the results achieved by "Butterfly" and "Stay in This Moment" on October 28, and only lags behind "Butterfly". "Rain" himself set a record on the 28th. This ability to drive sales can be called a spike in the audience.

In other words, as early as Friday, November 1st, the Recording Industry Association of America already knew that the first week of this ultimate showdown that attracted global attention had already been divided.

Facts have also proved this. On Saturday and Sunday, the sales momentum of "Blurry Rain" not only did not fall back, but it still maintained a high level of vitality, refreshing its own records time and time again, and finally brought the cumulative sales volume a week to two. A height of 1.9 million.

There are two sales data statisticians from the Recording Industry Association of America. After seeing this result, they fainted because they were too excited and sent them to the emergency room of the hospital. The rest of the other statisticians were not much better. The whole office fell into a dead silence and then into a carnival. They couldn't believe that history was created in their own hands.

Afterwards, for fear of data errors, the Recording Industry Association of America worked six hours of overtime late on Sunday night to collect data from all over the United States. After repeated verifications, the list of sales data for "Blurry Rain" has been repeatedly confirmed up to fourteen times. , And finally came to a unified conclusion: they are not crazy, and the data they collected are true.

In the face of absolute strength, Maria's propaganda battle with Oasis can only be said to be futile. Of course, it is a bit of an exaggeration to say that it is "futility", because their raging propaganda war has become the help of the album's history. The weekly sales of "Butterfly" and "Remain in This Moment" may not be as good as "Blurry Rain", but It is still an insurmountable peak for other opponents.

The only difference is that the "storm" is Mount Everest.

When seeing the sales data of "2.91 million", many people will only lament the incredible sales, and only marvel at the glory to the death to climb to the peak of their career, but they can't see that behind this album, the glory The journey to death was hard. In fact, after many years of in-depth research, someone came to the conclusion that the reason why the "storm" can make history, the concert tour that has been ignored by people has played a vital role. EMI Records seems to be unintentional. The propaganda strategy exploded with amazing energy.

During the production of the album "Huge Storm and Rain", Glory to Death really experienced the storm and rain. It can be said that each song truly shows the band's struggle, pain and confusion. Glory to the death on the crucial three albums, did not choose to stand still like the Oasis band, but boldly and bravely showed their trueness, especially the title song "Navigation (, which is definitely a masterpiece of Hugo. As a result, the gust of wind and rain along the way was vividly revealed.

Of course, everyone knows clearly that "Blurry Rain" can become a classic handed down. The quality of the album itself is one aspect that cannot be ignored, and the B-side recorded in the outdoor studio is the other half of the success. Through this experimental recording method, the band fully demonstrated the band's drift and wanton unrestrainedness, and almost every song has become a classic.

In a survey ten years later, as many as 80% of the audience who liked the B side of "Blurry Rain" had an absolute advantage over the 20% of the audience who chose the A side. This shows that the B side was successful.

The concert tour held at the same time is precisely the stage to fully show the strength of the glory to the death live singing. It complements the B side of the album and completes the glory of the rock spirit and thoughts. Those who participated in the concert tour may not be able to understand the significance of this event at the moment, but after the years have passed and their age has grown, they suddenly discovered that they have become a member of the "Blurry Rain" world tour. One of the most important moments in their lives, which has almost changed the lives of countless people in the future, and the far-reaching impact is beyond description.

So, the album of "Blurry Rain" and the tour concert formed a complementarity, and finally, stimulated by the ultimate showdown, the endless potential broke out, and this created a brilliance of 2.91 million. History is often created by accident and following an inevitable trajectory.

It can be said that Glory to the death stepped on thorns all the way, **** put the crown on the head, achieved supreme glory, truly became the top rock band in North America, the momentum even surpassed Hugo itself, in the whole No one can match the North American entertainment industry.

The first week of the final showdown finally came to an end. "Butterfly" swept 2.91 million sales, making the voices all over the world disappear instantly; "Butterfly" grabbed 1.98 million sales. , Has achieved the best performance of a female singer in the history of music; the 1.83 million data of "Stay in This Moment" is amazing, not only creating a new high after the Beatles, but also reviving the British rock power.

The winner is the glorious "storm and rain", but it is all the listeners and the entire North American music market.

Within a week of the fifth week of October, the North American music market delivered 6.82 million sales, of which the troika of the ultimate showdown accounted for 6.72 million , The market share is as high as 98.5%. This week has also become a moment in the annals of history. It has been called the "ultimate showdown at the end of the century" in the long history. Until half a century later, no one can replicate such a miracle. This is also the history of North American music. No one can surpass the true peak of the market.

After broadcasting the sales of the three albums, David’s pounding heart still did not return to calm. In fact, for a long time, he could not restore his calm. "Wow, I... I can’t believe it. I’m witnessing the birth of history. I believe that at this moment, many people are just like me. It’s hard to calm down because just now, just five seconds ago, all of us have become part of the historical moment, or more accurately. Some, we have created history together. It is our honour to be a witness and participant of this history, and to be a part of this history. This is our honour, the supreme honor."

At this time, only David’s voice was reverberating. The members of Backstreet Boys were completely sluggish and unable to make any response. Even if this is a live broadcast, “What’s more rare is that it’s just It's just the beginning of this ultimate showdown. How many surprises are waiting for us next? This is the most beautiful and happiest thing."
