Thanks to the blunderous tandem of Guy O. and Interscope! The true reason why MDNA fell-out of the US Top 200 during it's second week was the fact that almost ALL of the fans who wanted the album got it on: 1.) pre-order, 2.)bundling, 3.)normal retail & download purchase by the 1st charting week. Since MDNA was never promoted traditionally, casual fans and non-fans never bothered buying during the succeeding weeks hence the decline and lack of sustaining sales for the album. <br /><br />Give Me All Your Luvin' was within the Top 5 in about 13 countries (#1 in Canada)(Top 40 in more) and Girl Gone Wild peaked at #106 on week10 at the US Hot 100 and achieved modest Top 20 placements in about 10 countries (Top 40 in more). They're already forgotten in America but were loved in other parts of the world. Turn Up The Radio was severely overdue in it's release that all momentum and enthusiasm for the single had died in many parts of the world by the time it officially came out..

Sales fell big time in week 2 (really in DAY 2) and more in week 3 and more in week 4. For MOST weeks after the March release MDNA sold LESS than 500 copies a week meaning it was not even IN the Top 200 albums sold Billboard chart most weeks. Even now with our Madonna IN the USA her MDNA sales have been horrible. I just do NOT get it! Her GMAYL single tanked in the US. It got play from the sattelite stations her mgmt controls for 2 weeks but after they stopped playing it, the song died since other stations never added it. GGW peaked for 1 week at #108 so it never even got IN the Billboard Hot 100 and TUTR has not even Bubbled Under the Hot 100. THAT is unreal for a Madonna single with a video. Yes she got to #1 on the Dance Chart but that chart is foolish and any Madonna single will do that. Nearly any major artist gets one week atop that Billboard Dance Chart. Years ago that chart mattered when an artist needed to SELL the maxi CD singles and 12" singles. Madonna did that. Not it is called Club Play and it is really a tool for the music industry to manufacture these #1s. Anyway, the MDNA album is a damn good one and she is IN the USA working her butt off yet Americans are not buying her album. I find it rather sad if you ask me. Madonna deserves better!

Musically, MDNA is an 8/10. it's only the promotional aspect which brought it a notch down to 7. :-DMy Top Iconhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08384933556401560632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2775039895427167447.post-39394133424246349622012-05-26T23:50:23.945+10:002012-05-26T23:50:23.945+10:00you are optimist with score.

BIG hit siguro 'to kung pinromote niya muna ang album at singles bago mag world tour para naman makasabay sa mga kanta nito yung mga manonod sa concert niya. Sayang nga lang ang nagmadali siya sa rehearsals ng tour.Bb. Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07183877719410564521noreply@blogger.com
