Cool. I'm unfazed by it tbh, just think it's natural really for 19 to ride off the back of 21 to some degree. It would be weird if it didn't. Stores will have the two albums sitting next to one another, online retailers will suggest it too, in general many people will want some more Adele and it's available.

Adele is certainly unstoppable this year, no denying that.

Even TF has managed to shift something like 250k in the UK this year off the back of BTW.

Yeah, terrible time for being a Madonna fan.:sleep:”

For now, Gaga will easily over take her in every respect.

I sincerely doubt that. But if we could arrange a thread here for about 30 years from now, I'll be glad to celebrate if you turn out to be correct.

Until then, you'll just sounds silly, to be completely honest.

She won't need 30 years, she'll have overtaken her by the end of this decade.

Not seeing how that's ironic, and I may well indeed be biased but I am also basing my opinion largely on evidence rather than emotion.

And by all means take a course.”

So that's what the fuss about my post is about? Then I handing it to you then. You obviously took it much more seriously than I did as I failed to see the subtleties of the argument. Glad she has her integrity fully proven and restored...

I hope you're still on here next year so we can gloat at these ''claims'' once Madonna's new album and tour hits then

So much for the fans of HAS BEEN Madonna and their claims that albums don't sell anymore and its all about touring. I wonder what their excuse will be next year when Gaga's tour leaves Madonna's comeback in its wake LOL.”

I've been reading through this thread and the childish Madonna bashing is hilarious. I like both Madonna and GaGa, whats with the immature playground arguments. Jeesh!

i still thought that statistic was interesting and was something i was unaware of. adele in a way is doing the reverse of gaga. her début sold well. however, it wasn't a worldwide smash like gaga`s début. whereas adele now has a worldwide smash this year and her début album is picking up extra sales off the back of it.

btw is still doing extremely well whichever way people want to view it and this era is far from over.

It's more than interesting, it's actually almost unbelievable! No-one would have predicted such a happening just 4 months ago when BTW opened up with over a million copies sold. Maybe there should be a separate thread on it? Yes, I'm being sarcastic.

to be honest, i like the pair of them for very different reasons. i have the all the four albums mentioned. i give my original tf cd away, when she issued tfm. there is room for both artists and they are completely different in genres. only one will be the best album this year. however, they both have the potential to have long careers in the music business.

i have no interest in `fan wars`. personally, if i like something i will say so and wont be biased towards other artists. i did find that information interesting and thanks for posting those facts.

How will gaga take over Madonna ....are we talking record sales ? number ones ...tours ? what are you talking about ?

gaga will never sell as many records as madonna because times have changed ...while gaga claims to have sold seven million records herself with her second album ..madonna sold 20 million plus of her second album ...

how will gaga take over madonna ?

she is running out of steam and madonnas ideas

At the end of the day Madonna has classic records that people remember ..30 years later - gaga will never ever make a classic record especially a ballad ..she is rubbish at ballads ...i mean compare live to tell to you and i and what do you get ? enough said

Madonnas music is way better than gagas
