It's a bit of an odd one really because it sort of is a quarter of a greatest hits in that the a lot of the earlier versions are single or video versions. Those are the ones I'll be going back to most, and where most of the streaming sales are coming from, looking at the stats.That's superb for a remix album (even if some people think they're getting a greatest hits)!
11,192 sales. Last week that would have got her #2 in the final chart but this week looks more competitive.
This is what I'm interested in, in as much as I don't imagine Madame X sold that well outside the hardcore fanbase either. But I guess there is more reason to stream or buy an album of new material compared to mixes.That's actually not that bad considering Madame X opened up with 27,227 and it was a new album.
6LP version has now arrived![]()
Have you played it yet? I'm halfway through the first side of the first disc and the mastering is appalling. I want to make sure it isn't just me but the bass throbs (I don't know how to describe it) are distorted and render it unlistenable. I'm going to need to play it on my other player to check...
Not played it yet - will do when I get back from work - I'll let you know how I get on ..Have you played it yet? I'm halfway through the first side of the first disc and the mastering is appalling.

Yes and instead that Remix which sounds a bit “off key” to meHold on, they didn’t bother using the video mix of Fever?
NULL AND VOID
Imagine if she was #1 at the same time Kate Bush was #1 in the singles chart. What a time to be a middle aged Australian gay.No.1 in Australia (her 12th)
No idea but Germany has been pretty much over her since Confessions. Lots of negative press (even worse than the UK). And I know because my sistahh lives thurrr. So a top 10 debut is still FINE with zero promo and zero new material (did I say that already ? OK)Weren't they anticipating a more successful debut in Germany, as their chart is based on revenue, not units?
Kate Bush hitting number one is amazing. In the same year, Madonna having high first-week sales/streaming is the sign of a still-present fanbase kicking in. Olivia dying is a tragic loss. 2022 has been quite the year of extremes.Imagine if she was #1 at the same time Kate Bush was #1 in the singles chart. What a time to be a middle aged Australian gay.
Well, apart from Olivia dying.
How about the UK? Seems like the Steps No.1 has been announced already
