Chapter 1286 - Stepping on the Big Cards

"Step on the shoulders of Mariah Carey and climb to the top, glory to death to interpret the best of the day!"

This is a summary of the singles charts in the latest issue of Billboard Official Magazine, and there is no doubt that Billboard has praised Glory to Death in the most gorgeous words, and the rock band that has created countless miracles in the past two years has once again seen the years when Elvis Pressley broke the ground, the Beatles swept through the army, and Woodstock led the carnival.

"Bathing in the Morning Light" has once again created countless glories after "almost becoming famous", but more importantly, glory to death re-shows the scene of rock singles in the 60s and 70s can also be strong to win the championship. During the "near fame" period, glory to death consisted of a single "Don't. look。 ba。 anger)" won the championship, but entering the period of "bathing in the morning light", glory to death is to release three consecutive singles to win the championship, and now the fourth single "apologize" has reached the top again, creating an incredible miracle.

The record for the highest number of top-winning singles on an album is currently held by Michael Jackson in Billboard history, and the album "Bad" has five singles topping the Billboard singles chart.

Now, "Bathing in the Morning Light" is also infinitely close to this historical record, strongly demonstrating the popularity of glory to death.

It is definitely not the weak who wins to the death, but Mariah Carey, who occupies a place in the entire history, or the "fantasy" that opened up a new history of rhythm and blues, and the first week of sales of 260,000 super high number jù, the success of "apology" is definitely worth mentioning.

Not to mention the string of names behind Maria, Michael, Mario, Sill, TLC, these are all important figures who occupy a place in their respective music categories, and the quality, sales, word-of-mouth, and popularity of "You Are Not Alone", "Gangster Paradise", "Rose Kiss", and "Waterfall" are also worth mentioning in the long river of music.

This qiē makes the success of the "apology" even more brilliant.

The headline of Billboard's official magazine made this situation clear, and Maria, possibly one of the greatest female singers of all time, became the highest honor to witness to her glory to death.

Maria, who has always been arrogant, domineering, and strong, obviously has a hard time accepting such a situation, and when Maria was promoting the new album in New York, during the media interview, someone mentioned it, and Maria's polite smile on her face could hardly be revealed, and she could only pretend to be nonchalant and say, "My single is loved by the audience, and this is the most important thing." Even such a painless polite remark made Maria grit her teeth when she said it.

Later, there were rumors in the circle that Maria had set fire to the Four Seasons Hotel where she was staying in New York, smashing everything that could be smashed in the room. However, this rumor has not been confirmed, on the one hand, the Four Seasons Hotel has always been praised for protecting the privacy of artists, and on the other hand, because the Hugo incident in August has caused the paparazzi to shrink their hands. The latter, in particular, stops this rumor at a rumor.

In the face of such a situation, Henry Bloom was still unhurried and lazy in an interview, and said lightly, "The music of glory to death can be supported by everyone, which is the greatest affirmation of Hugo and the band, which is the most important thing." ”

Almost everyone, after hearing Henry's official answer, couldn't help but feel the urge to burst into laughter. It can only be said that Henry, the old fox, "is beautiful in black!" ”

The song "Apology" is stimulating the nerves of reporters, although no one takes the initiative to mention it, but the streets, radio and television can feel that this song is everywhere, and it is constantly fermenting the sensitivity of reporters all the time.

In this case, Maria became the scapegoat for the journalists' diversion of targets - if it weren't for Sony Records' deep roots in the media, it is estimated that this time Maria would have been disgraced and thrown home. But even so, the media kept preaching "how rare and important it is to step on Maria's shoulders to create a zào miracle in glory to death", which simply made Maria feel painful.

In the first week of October, Maria's new album "Daydream" was officially released, and in the first week of release, it landed at the top of the Billboard album chart with a devastating momentum, making many media shout "Maria's fanatic effect is going crazy again", and the powerful momentum directly shrouded the North American music market, showing Maria's confidence and strength.

But to everyone's surprise, this week's Billboard singles chart champion is still "apology", and "fantasy" can only stay in the runner-up position aggrievedly, which almost makes all the media explode directly, which can be called the hottest and hottest music news in 1995, and even surpasses the fifteenth consecutive crown miracle of "Wonderwall"!

You know, in the first week of the release of "Daydream", it sold 430,000 in the U.S. market, easily winning the championship with nearly double the runner-up, and at the same time won the championship in Japan and the United Kingdom with an absolute advantage, which is also the first and only album in Maria's history to win the championship in the first week of the three major markets at the same time, with more than 800,000 sales in the first week worldwide.

But it is precisely behind the glory of "Daydream" that almost everyone thinks that "Fantasy" will easily win the championship and achieve Maria's Billboard double chart, but the result is a shocking "upset", when everyone sees that the Billboard album chart leader and the singles chart leader are not the same singer's name, their jaws have been completely shattered.

Even if the glory to death defeated Maria, it would definitely be an upset in such a situation!

Driven by the strong release of "Daydream" in the first week, although the sales of "Fantasy" have declined, it is still within the range of controllable, with 200,000 sales in a single week, and the radio on-demand rate has soared directly to the top five.

But the Billboard singles chart clearly shows that this week's top-winning single is an "apology" from glory to death, not to mention Maria's fans, which even makes many media begin to question the correctness of Billboard - isn't it that the statistics are wrong?

Billboard's official statistics agency also had to publish official statistics jù to show their authority and fairness, which showed that "Apology" won 230,000 sales this week, and the radio on-demand rate accounted for an incredible share of 6.3 percent, which can almost be said to lead all singles, and lead the second place "You're Not Alone" by a full four percentage points.

After seeing the number of jù, everyone was once again stunned and speechless, and this time even the eyeballs had to be found on the ground.

"Apology" has not fallen but increased sales this week, and after its fifth week of release, it still has such a strong explosive power, the whole development curve directly blinded the eyes of reporters, and the unity of the young volcano made this single glow with an absolute advantage comparable to the previous four singles of "Bathing in the Morning Light".

The reporters all knew what this was for, but they were dumb and ate coptis, so they could only be silent.

What's more, this song has actually been loved by the majority of listeners, Hugo's soul into this song has awakened the sad memories in the hearts of many people, and it has become the first choice for the soundtrack of many series and movies, including "Happy Family", "Seinfeld", "Friends" and other popular dramas have chosen this song as an interlude, and it has been widely acclaimed.

The unbeatable on-demand rate of radio stations is not only due to the factors of radio hosts and young volcanic belly spoofs, but also the support of the vast audience base, otherwise it would be impossible to have an unnatural on-demand rate of 6.3 percent.

Driven by the "apology", the sales of "Bathing in the Morning Light" picked up again this week, and it actually broke into the top 10 of the Billboard album chart again. This can definitely be said to be a model for further tapping the potential market, and the powerful influence of glory to death has been enhanced.

It is in such a strong position that "Apology" not only won the championship in a row, but also had a momentum like a rainbow, both in terms of sales and on-demand rates, and won the first place without any suspense.

Is this unpopular? Or is it a matter of course? At this moment, no one knows how to judge.

But that didn't matter, as "Apology" won his second straight week by a landslide, while "Fantasy" had to stay in second place, and similarly, there was no change from third to fifth, with "You're Not Alone," "Gangster Heaven" and "Rose Kiss" holding on, with only "Falls" in sixth place reversed with Jenny Jackson's "Runaway" in seventh place last week.

Under the strong attack of "Daydream" and "Fantasy", "Apology" brazenly won the championship for two consecutive weeks, which also made the competition between Glory to Death and Maria white-hot, or is it a strange situation, next week, should everyone continue to believe in Glory to Death? Or continue to believe in Maria?

It seems that either choice is the right one, and it seems that neither choice is safe.

This is the power of glory to death, a year after the release of "Bathing in the Morning Light", the fourth single is still unbeatable, forming a strong confrontation with the new album and new single that has just been fully released, and it is not left behind. This is the dominance that Nirvana did not show at its peak, but now Glory to Death has done what Nirvana Band cannot.

An era of glory unfolding unfolding unfolds before our eyes!
