Chapter 1620: Crushing Momentum
72_72291 Four hundred and thirty thousand!
"Young Volcano (young. voloes)" not only made history with this single, but also made history by three or four times the all-time sales in a single day, and in just one day, "Young Volcano" set a record that no other single could set in a week - including glory to death itself.
This record caused an uproar almost throughout North America, just as people could not believe that the film market could make $36 million at the box office in a single day, and it was hard to believe that the music market could produce 430,000 sales in a single day.
Fans of glory to death, the young volcano, relied on this battle to truly make a name for himself. Although the rebellion during the filming of "Death Row Walk" last year had already brought them into the public eye, this single battle was the moment when they really shined.
Young Volcanoes not only made North America aware of the unswerving followers of Glory to Death, but also clearly witnessed the miracle of rock 'n' roll devouring the mainstream music market, as the lyrics of the song "Young Volcano" say, "Just tonight, the fox will go hunting hounds, and every qiē will end in this moment...... Wild us, like a young volcano, full of potential and explosive power! ”
The rebellious power in the depths of the bones, the desire for faith in the depths of the heart, and the dream light in the depths of the soul began to rise strongly, detonating a revolution in North America. Life! In a trance, it really made people think that the rock movement that broke out around Woodstock really reappeared!
The strong support of the young volcanoes burst out with unparalleled explosive power, and 430,000 singles were bought on the first day of singles sales alone, which not only rewrote the new history of the North American music market, but also rewrote the mainstream map of the North American music market, making people feel that the rock force led by glory to death has become a force to be reckoned with in the mainstream market.
Four hundred and thirty thousand, the numbers never lie, but the cold number jù brought the most powerful impact, making people deeply feel the majesty of glory to death in North America today.
What's even more terrifying is that this is just the number of sales that are glorious to death!
In this battle of the century, the reason why people are discussing the heat so crazy is because the three sides of the battle are not inferior, and it is not lively for you to fight for me. In fact, before noon on the 23rd, the difference between the three can be said to be completely proportionate, and there is no clear trend of victory or defeat at all, although in the end glory to death won the victory, but it can still be imagined that this is a hand-to-hand combat with bayonets in full swing!
This was also proved by the results, and Maria's "Sweetheart" also exploded with 370,000 sales on the first day, which undoubtedly followed the Glory to Death and set a new record. If there was no "young volcano", then this is the moment when people witnessed the history of "Sweetheart", but on the other hand, "Sweetheart" would not have exploded into such a strong sales figure without the competition of Glory to Death and the Oasis band.
But no matter what, Maria still made her own history, and the sales of 370,000 also made people clearly feel her strong momentum as a diva now. It's a pity that the better Maria's results are, the more the power of the single "Young Volcano" is brought out - even if Maria is as powerful as Maria loses, the glorious victory to death can definitely be said to be well-deserved.
Although 370,000 vs. 430,000 seems to be a relatively large difference, in fact, Glory to Death only relied on the final moment of the sprint explosion, which completed the narrow victory over Maria. This victory was definitely not as easy as it seemed.
"You know what I mean?" In the North American market, it brought out 290,000 sales, which not only set the best sales of British singers in the North American market in ten years, but also allowed the Oasis Band to defeat competitors such as Radiohead, Goatskin, and Stain Band, and successfully took the lead in the North American market.
However, Oasis's performance is undoubtedly much inferior to the two competitors, although the 290,000 sales still beat the single-week sales of countless singles - including Maria's "Sweet Day" and "Wonderwall", which made Zào history, but everyone knows that the reason why the music market exploded so strongly this week is because of the battle of the century. Therefore, the 290,000 of the Oasis Band cannot be compared vertically, only horizontally - in other words, the Oasis Band failed miserably!
It can be seen from this group of numbers that although on the morning of September 23, the Oasis Band still tightly bit Maria and Glory to Death, but this is North America, this is the home of Maria and Glory to Death, this is the land that witnessed the rise of the Queen of Heaven and the Heavenly Group, and the appeal of the Oasis Band quickly fell into a slump in the afternoon after the outbreak in the morning, and was finally thrown out of more than one street distance by the two rivals.
Although the fourth week of September is only just over Monday, it is certain that the top three players on this week's Billboard singles chart are these three players, but the only uncertainty is: will the suspense between the three players change in the long week that follows?
Regardless of the week's wins and losses, the three groups of competitors joined forces to contribute one million and nine million sales in a single day, and the crazy sales of zào in a single day undoubtedly refreshed the history of the North American music market again, and what is even more commendable is that this competition has led to the prosperity of the entire music market, in addition to these three groups of singers, the sales of singles and albums of other singers have also risen, with a single increase of up to 56 percent, and the album has also brought an increase of 31 percentage points, It was almost the most prosperous day for the entire North American music market ever.
This competition is worthy of the prestige of the "Battle of the Century"! Not only because this is a duel close to the millennium, but also because it is one of the most eye-catching duels of the past century, and thanks to the maturity of the music market, this duel has set a new level of sales records, media coverage records, and public attention records.
"Glory to Death vs Maria vs Oasis Band", and finally came to the conclusion of "430,000 vs 370,000 vs 290,000", the three groups of singers teamed up to crush the entire music market, detonating an unprecedented sales frenzy, and Glory to Death stood out in this thin ice victory, and won this battle of Tianwang Mountain with enough sales numbers to completely blow up the opponent!
As the most important music market in the world, North America is also the birthplace of the battle of the century, and the victory of glory to death is undoubtedly of epoch-making significance, for rock, for the North American music market, for the mainstream market structure of music, for the listener's musical aesthetics, for the regeneration of faith...... have immeasurable long-term implications.
No one can know what will happen in the future, but at least, with the arrival of the "young volcano" on the stage of history, a seed of faith called neo-metal rock is quietly taking root on the North American continent, and with the help of the power of the battle of the century, it has begun to drill out of the soil and slowly sprout. As for whether this seed will eventually grow into a towering tree, or whether it will wither and die early, only time will tell.
But the battle of the century is not over yet, as one of the world's most important music markets, the UK market will only reveal the answer at the last minute! In the British Isles, although the sales explosion is not as explosive as Japan's, and the sales durability is not as strong as the United States, no one can deny the important position of the British music scene in history, which is an indispensable part of the global music market, and the battle of the century has been sought after in this soil, even surpassing the United States, because this showdown awakens the long-dormant rock dream in people's hearts and makes everyone crazy.
In this land that once gave birth to countless classic rock 'n' roll, Oasis Band reached an unprecedented high after defeating Stain Band last year, relying on home field advantage, and finally won a rare victory in this battle of the century!
The UK's September 23 singles sales champion was "You know what I mean? "- From the Oasis Band!
The Oasis band achieved 310,000 one-day sales here, breaking last year's taint band's "Country Cottage (try. house)" achieved a good result of 270,000 in a single day, becoming the most purchased single in the British Isles on this day. It is also a testament to the current popularity of the British people for the Oasis, a commoner band who, as countless critics have said, recreated the glory of the Beatles and has been enthusiastically sought after by all classes.
This time, however, the Oasis Band's victory was not so hearty, because the glory to death carried Hugo's strong momentum, and the "Young Volcano" swept the sales of 300,000 and 3,000 copies on the 23rd, only less than 10,000 copies behind the Oasis Band, and was the runner-up.
This is a new page in the history of British music, after last year's Oasis and Stain Band both handed in 200,000 sales on the first day of their singles, this time Oasis and Glory to the Death dedicated a more exciting showdown - the first day sales both crossed the 300,000 threshold, which is absolutely incredible!
Maria's popularity in this land is far less than that of Japan, although the sales of 180,000 in a single day are already very good, but they are far behind by the two competitors, and they are not at the same level at all. Of course, there were three singles that sold more than 100,000 on the same day, which is also a new history for the British music market.
Perhaps this battle of the century can be divided into winners and losers, and winners can be found, but there are no losers, because each group of singers is stepping on the shoulders of their predecessors to create zào history, and in just one day they have refreshed the music history of various countries around the world, so the momentum is incomparable and unrepeatable.
The Battle of the Century! Become a classic and go down in history!
