#JusticeForBedtimeStories: #1 on iTunes USA!

Maybe I'm being literal, but it's my job. As far as justice is concerned, M expressed very well what I mean in Killers Who Are Partying, those are the ones we should be asking justice for. The rest is marketing bs and upsetting rivalry between pop artists / their fans. I'm really not comfortable when a fundamental value is turned trite, even if it's for fun or for the sake of charting. Good job fans though.

yes but All I want for christmas has had a huge amount of streams because of christmas. 

Exactly. But in the end, sales score higher than streams, so if today's #1 means really A LOT of sales, she can upchart many recent issues, which are mostly streamed.

Technically speaking, 1250 streams equals 1 hard sale (source : https://completemusicupdate.com/article/billboard-decides-1250-streams-equals-one-album-sale-so-long-as-the-listener-was-paying/) It's all about revenue.

Then, I'm not sure how discounted back catalogue sales count.

i didnt realize it was discounted to 4.99, and all of sudden saw #justiceforbedtimestories yesterday.  i was confused what was going on, simple as that. when i saw a huge jump and commented earlier in this thread, i thought it was an odd album to suddenly spike. not taking it literally.  just didnt understand what was going on.  im all for whats going on. im glad to see it reaching #1. yeah!  :)

I mean... How many sells it needs to get a #1 nowdays on iTunes?:07:
I think it is a little stupid to celebrate that, people should be streaming her songs and adding views to her videos instead if they want to give her catalog "justice".
(And I feel a little ashamed for Madonna and Janet celebrating this as if it is groundbreaking. Sorry, they're so much more than that...)

I Think justice for EROTICA would have been better. The album was demonized when it was released. People thought she was losing her mind and instead she was just bringing to the surface things that are taboo or what people are afraid to talk.

I’d love that, but it’s not discounted 4.99 on iTunes, which is the reason for all this!

not sure that just offering a thanks to fans is "celebrating this as if it is groundbreaking".  im sure like many fans, Madonna didnt expect to see Bedtimes Stories to go #1 after all these years. yes, its just itunes but its not like its a small platform where music is sold and streamed.

But would an Erotica discount lead it to the top because the US after nearly 30 years now consider female sexuality to be a thing not to be ashamed of? I'm not sure about that, not even with a discount down to two dollars lol. It would be interesting to see though :silly: Unless it's only fans buying.

The reason why all this happened is because the album was discounted to 4.99!!! ❤️❤️?❤️???????
