Chapter 857

Six consecutive weeks of billboard album champion! Six weeks in a row, sales exceeded 200000! Top topics list for six weeks in a row!

Such achievements, even Kanye West, even the flamethrowers, even Taylor Swift, even miss Gaga, even Rihanna, failed to create such feats in 2011; Even in the 1990s, Bob Dylan did not achieve such market recognition.

In addition to Adele and Bruno Mars, Langley hall is the third.

But Don Quixote is a Folk Album!

Such contrast is enough to clearly feel the incomparable influence of this album. On the Internet and in our daily life, bit by bit, word of mouth, about this album gradually began to spread

Don Quixote would not have been released without George strand's desperate efforts, because Langley believes that such an album is impossible to be recognized in the contemporary music market; In the process of making the album, George strand and Herbert Jones were worried and argued about the repertoire of the album, and even gave up two masterpieces.

Including a number of independent record companies, in the face of "Don Quixote" this album has played a retreat, and finally 11 studio took over, otherwise the album could not be released at all; After the official release, studio 11's publicity budget was too tight to carry out relevant publicity, so it's inconceivable that the album "Don Quixote" has not been officially released.

At the beginning, the birth of "Pioneer Village night" was not a coincidence, but because "Don Quixote" was brewed and born there; What's more, Pioneer Village is the most important promoter of the whole album's production, production and promotion. There, a group of real don Quixotes always gather and stick to a spiritual paradise.

……

With the advance of time, March has passed, April has passed, spring has gone and summer has come.

The popularity of Don Quixote has slowly subsided, but it has not completely disappeared. Little by little, the details have been added. It flows slowly in the long river of time, just like the waves scouring the sand. The onlookers who blindly follow the trend gradually leave, while the loyal listeners who stick to the original place find more and more details, and the whole album becomes more and more complete, more and more vivid More and more profound, so, more and more love.

Gradually, people have come to understand why this album is so special, why this album has been widely sought after since its name disappeared, why it seems that there is no context but it is so natural, why this album can get Grammy Awards, why the media think that the choice of Grammy is an important reform of the industry, and, Why have all the audience who have watched "one man's concert" become supporters of lanli

"Don Quixote" is never an instant amazing album. What it needs is the precipitation of time and the polishing of time. Only by calming down and listening attentively can we get a glimpse of the soul and truth hidden behind the melody. Grammy's three gramophones only opened a door, and countless people poured in, but only a small number of people stayed.

In a short period of six weeks, Don Quixote has sold 1.53 million, and the cumulative sales since its release will exceed the threshold of 2 million.

Miracle, this is a real miracle; But when we think about it, it is not a miracle, but a journey: in the increasingly fast-paced modern society, there are so many don Quixotes hidden, waiting, waiting and insisting quietly until the appearance of Don Quixote.

Even if we look back ten or twenty years later, there is no stage, no music video, no publicity, "Don Quixote" from conception to creation to distribution, to brilliance, and finally to the casting of classics. This journey is not slow, not arrogant, not arrogant, not arrogant, not arrogant. In the erosion and precipitation of time, it has opened up a road of its own.

Unique and irreplaceable.

In the fifth week of March, Bruce Springsteen's new personal album "drop hammer crusher" airborne billboard album ranked first, ending the sixth consecutive title of "Don Quixote" and breaking the joint blockade of "Don Quixote" and "21". However, the popularity of these two albums is still not reduced, just falling to the second and third place correspondingly.

After that, the competition of the billboard album list reopened. The champion of the list changed almost once a week. After you sing, I came on the stage. It's not that the competition is too fierce, but that the competitiveness of the newly released albums is not strong enough. After a week's outbreak, they began to weaken. This is the status quo of the whole market.

Among them, "21" and "Don Quixote" are more difficult and valuable.

After the fifth week of March, "21" stayed in the top three position for 13 weeks, and then returned to the champion. After only one week, it fell back to the runner up again and continued to dominate the table. There was no decline at all. The explosive power of the follow-up has completely made the language useless.

Comparatively speaking, Don Quixote ', Hovering in the top ten rankings temporarily slowed down the downward trend.

Although it can't be compared with the adverse "21", at least Don Quixote stayed in the top five for 14 weeks, and after 14 weeks, he still stayed in the top ten, with no sign of avalanche.

No matter what the subsequent momentum, "Don Quixote" has become the most popular folk album after Bob Dylan and the most popular one since the 21st century. Such achievements are enough to go down in history. After that, every step of "Don Quixote" is to refresh its own record and create its own history!

"Don Quixote" album sales burst, naturally also promoted the performance of the single, especially the six consecutive weeks of sales of more than 200000 performance, can be called a wonder after the beginning of 2012!

In the third week of February, the week after the Grammy ended, all the 18 singles of Don Quixote's album are on the billboard singles list! A total of 18 songs, no omission, all into the list!

This performance, with a single week album sales of 450000 results, amazing! At the same time, it also created a new history of billboard: the singer with the most songs on the list at one time! At the same time, the singer with the most songs on the list! Also, the singer with the longest interval between album release time and single entry time!

Of course, among the 18 singles, 15 capitals are in the range from 50th to 100th, and as many as nine capitals are densely distributed behind 75th; And a week later, more than 11 capitals directly published the list, and the remaining four longest songs only stayed for four weeks.

Overall, the single score is not so brilliant, the highest ranking is "time", 53rd.

In addition, "Ophelia" is to re-enter the list. After hovering for 68 weeks on the billboard single list, she fell out of the list. The record of consecutive weeks on the list suddenly stopped and temporarily ranked fourth in history.

It's worth mentioning that Adele's "falling into the abyss" failed to surpass "Ophelia", and the final number of consecutive weeks in the list was fixed above 64 weeks. However, this single won seven weeks successively, which is naturally not comparable to the low self-esteem of "Ophelia".

After two months, "Ophelia" entered the list again, temporarily ranked 57th.

"Cleopatra" is still on the top of the list. Last week, it fell to No. 94 and will be released soon. This week, with the help of Grammy's momentum, it is back to No. 66.

So far, the number of weeks of this single has reached 90, far exceeding the 76 weeks of the original record holder "I'm yours", setting a history that can hardly be surpassed.

After that, "Cleopatra" stayed on the list for another three weeks and officially came out of the list. The historical record of the number of weeks in the list was set at 93 weeks, drawing a successful end to this journey of making history.

Of the 18 singles, only three are in the top 50.

"Beast", "believe in it", "your bones".

The first is "your bone". Since the "Ellen show", the spread and popularity of this single has always existed, but it has not been able to ignite. With this Grammy award ceremony, Ellen DeGeneres mentioned it in the program again, so the download data of digital audio source soared to rocket.

In the absence of any publicity, not only for the first time among the billboard single list, but also ranked 41st, with remarkable results.

The second is "no doubt". With the hit of "crazy love", the highest ranking of this single has come to the second place, which is also the highest ranking record of ballads since the millennium. However, the endurance of the single is average. After reaching the peak of the second place, it only stayed for three weeks, and then slowly and slowly declined all the way.

In the week before Grammy, "firmly believe" temporarily ranked 37th on the list. Compared with Cleopatra's and Ophelia's incredible ability to count the number of weeks on the list, "firmly believe" is only the 15th week on the list, and its stamina is not on the same level.

However, this week, "firmly believe no doubt" to re-enter the top 20, back to the 14th, the performance is not bad.

Finally, "the beast", a single that has never been included in the list, has become popular overnight thanks to the classic moment of the award winning speech of the annual album. It has occupied the number one spot of the real-time download charts of iTunes for five consecutive days. Moreover, the number of listening times in spotify has also increased exponentially, which has also made the single score soar to the top and directly parachuted to the fourth place in the billboard single charts.

A year ago, the best score of ballad single in the millennium was only sixth; A year later, the two singles "firmly believe" and "beast" broke such a high level.

Just "Don Quixote" this album, creating records and writing brilliance, is enough to go down in history!
