Chapter 1285 1285 Four singles trend

Although Hugo is a well-deserved leader with additional influence today, Michael Jackson became the unique focus center in April this year, and the Chandler family's confession gave Michael a clean up, which really put an end to the farce more than 20 months ago.

After successfully clearing the grievances, superstar Michael Jackson released his new album "History". This is the most expensive and largest publicity campaign in history that lasted from May to September, vigorously announcing Michael's return.

"History" broke the record of the album "Dangero" with sales of 600,000 in the first week of its release, and easily landed on the Billboard's championship. However, the sales figure can still show the negative impact of the incident. You should know that the sales of "Bathing in the morning light" in the first week was 700,000, and the results of "History" still have a certain gap. Although people know that Michael is innocent, and although people know that he wronged the innocent, his inner guilt, shame, regret, and unwillingness to admit his mistakes have all had an impact on the album's sales.

Fortunately, at least the grievances were washed away, which is a good thing. Facts have proved that this is the case. The subsequent momentum of "history" is very brave, which cleverly coincides with the "dangerous" sales curve at the time.

"History" kicked off Michael's comeback journey with five consecutive championships in the US Billboard Album Rankings, but the leading single "Scream" failed to get a public resounding. The single still achieved brilliant sales, but the radio on-demand rate was not even able to squeeze in, so he missed the Billboard Singles champion, and his best result was only fourth place in a week.

The failure of "Scream" was valued by Sony Records, and Tom Streckler also truly demonstrated his outstanding abilities as an agent for the first time. After negotiations, the second single "You Are Not Alone" was officially released after only four weeks of separation.

"You Are Not Alone" quickly won the public's love with its excellent quality. With its impressive sales, the radio on-demand rate also rose rapidly. It officially topped the Billboard singles rankings five weeks after its release. Now this single has won three consecutive championships. In the face of the aggressive "apology" this week, although "You Are Not Alone" is far behind in sales, it still relies on the strong radio on-demand rate to complete the four consecutive championships!

At the same time, Michael's tour named "History" is also in full swing.

The trajectory of history has quietly changed. Not only did Michael wash away the grievances, but his physical health has not yet had any major problems. This has allowed the "history" global tour to unfold smoothly and continue to create history; and the new albums and singles have also achieved results that match Michael. Under Tom's oppression, Sony Records did not repeat the same mistakes.

Therefore, the first week of September is indeed of great significance. Not only does Michael and Glory's participation, but also the classic "Rose Kiss" and "Gangster Paradise", which also makes the competition on Billboard more interesting.

The following week, as the radio on-demand broadcast began to gradually rise, and the competitiveness of glory to death gradually began to show its power.

"Apology" won 190,000 sales this week, a little lower than the sales data in the first week, but the decline was very gratifying. More importantly, the on-demand rate of the radio station burst into huge energy, not only directly entering the top ten, but also reaching the third place in one fell swoop. This is really terrifying for a single that was released only into the second week.

Whether it is a radio host, a young volcano, or other ordinary listeners, the wave of support for "apology" is directly and vividly reflected in the data of the radio on-demand rate. Under such a push, the competitiveness of "apology" has further shown its strength.

In the end, the top five in the second week of September were still familiar faces, and the five singles from last week were still last week, but the rankings changed a little.

"You are not alone" demonstrates Michael's super high popularity and successfully completed five consecutive championships. "Gangs Heaven" relies on his super high popularity to resist the impact of competitors and continue to be runner-up again, which also made Curio's first peak in his singer career; "Apology"'s sales fell slightly this week, but relying on the advantage of radio on-demand rate, it rose to third place; "Rose Kiss" slipped into the palace, but the gap with the former is not big, and its momentum is still strong; "Waterfall" sticks to fifth place without any change.

In the third week of September, the top five still did not change. The only difference is that "Gang Paradise" ended the five consecutive championships of "You are not alone" and relied on the victory of radio on-demand rate to win the championship. In this way, "Gang Paradise", "You are not alone", "Apology", "Rose Kiss", and "Waterfall" ranked in the top five respectively.

But if professionals observe carefully, they will find that although the rankings of "Gangster Paradise" and "You are not alone" are exchanged, the gap is very small, and the later "apology" relies on the increase in the on-demand rate of radio stations to shorten the gap, infinitely approaching the top two positions, and the gap between "King of Rose" and "Waterfall" has gradually widened.

Such a subtle change makes people look forward to the Billboard singles chart for the next week.

In fact, the billboard in the fourth week of September did not disappoint everyone! Because Mariah Carey's new studio album is about to be released, and the first single this week is officially launched!

With the strong rise of Glory to Death, the little thing between Glory to Death and Maria is no longer a secret. Although Henry Bloom is just an agent, the dirty conspiracy hidden outside the spotlight has attracted the attention of many people. Until now, the parties involved have not come forward to tell the story behind that passage. Henry is still extremely low-key, Maria is still disdainful, and Glory is still keeping her mouth shut until death. However, this does not affect people's positioning Glory to Death and Maria opposite.

Although glory to death is a new hope for rock recovery, and Maria is the new queen of R&B, and there is no chance of a head-on confrontation between the two, the media still habitually put them together for comparison.

This time, Maria collided head-on with the "apology" of Glory until death. It was obviously Mars hitting the Earth, which made countless people look forward to it.

Maria's first single "Fantasy" will be released in October, which is an epoch-making song. This fast-paced pop song truly integrates rap into the pop style for the first time, thus creating a new standard song for rhythm and blues singers that need to be matched with the rap part. Top superstars such as Beyonce and Rihanna are all representatives of this, and a group of rap superstars have also been produced, such as Pitbull, Nicki Mina (nicki.com) and others.

It can be said that "fantasy" is one of the important weights for Maria's music career to open up the times and a step that makes her truly comparable to Whitney Houston. This song not only made a huge breakthrough in musical style, but also played a vital role in the future development of rhythm and blues.

Similarly, "apology" is also a song that has had a profound impact on rock music arrangements, not to mention the meaning of Glory to Death as the founder of new metal music. Therefore, the collision between "fantasy" and "apology" is undoubtedly expected, and the pioneering and innovation of "fantasy" seems indescribable in the face of "apology". Many music critics believe that Glory to Death integrates diverse elements such as rap, pop, and soul into rock. This is the real pioneer. "fantasy" can only be said to be late.

However, this still does not affect the high evaluation of "Fantasy", and Maria Kalyn's super high popularity at this time is perfectly reflected. "Fantasy" grabbed 260,000 sales in one fell swoop in the first week. With other singles exhausted, this sales obviously has the ability to sweep the troops.

Previously, the sales volume of 250,000 in the first week of "apology" was only ranked fourth. This is because the sales volume of the top three still performed well, and the radio on-demand rate had the upper hand. But now it is different. The singles in the top five have been released for at least five weeks. "apology" has been released for three weeks. The sales volume of these singles are not violent, so naturally they cannot win the 200,000 level again.

This is a matter of timing. Just like the schedule of the movie, the albums and singles of the music also have a release schedule. Obviously, the "apology" schedule was not selected well, there were wolves in front and tigers in the back; while the "fantasy" schedule was perfect.

However, just as everyone thought that "Fantasy" would easily airborne the championship and become the first single for female singers to airborne the championship, "Apology" emerged and made great efforts, defeating "Fantasy" in one fell swoop, winning the championship throne in the fourth week of September! Only then did people realize that the success of the first week of "Apology" was just the beginning.

In the past two weeks, the sales of "apologies" entities have been slowly declining, but the on-demand rate of radio stations has been rising rapidly. Last week, it has become the champion of radio stations' on-demand rate. All these signs show that the market is accumulating momentum for the second wave of "apologies".

Sure enough, in the fourth week of September, the sales volume of "apologies" broke through the threshold of 200,000 in one fell swoop, and sold 220,000 in sales. It was still able to deliver such an answer in the fourth week of release and the fourth single "Bath in the morning light". This is so incredible that many people can't believe it.

But the facts are already in front of us. "Apology" actually burst out with sales data comparable to "Fantasy", while the radio on-demand rate of "Apology" is far ahead, and it has surpassed the "Gangster Paradise" with its absolute advantage, ranking high in the on-demand rankings of major radio stations; as for the "Fantasy" that was just released this week, it did not even enter the top 50 on-demand rankings. After the two data were superimposed, "Apology" successfully won the championship of the Billboard rankings.

This not only achieved the great achievement of the fourth single of the album "Bath in the Morning Light", but also won all four singles in a row. Such power is once again admirable. This time, it even more impressively made the proud Maria.

Stepping on the shoulders of the "fantasy" with a brilliant sales record of 260,000, and forcing the high heads of the uncrowned kings to "apologize" to push the chaos, ugly, entangled, and shame of the whole August to the peak!

This is indeed a moment worth remembering in history.
