Evan Bell, Chris Doughty, Akon, Fergie, Carrie Underwood, Five Cents and Justin Timberlake were in the top seven of the 2007 year-end album sales charts. , and all seven albums were released in 2005. Among the newly released albums in 2007, the highest-selling soundtrack was the "High School Musical 2" movie soundtrack, which ranked eighth in the year-end sales chart.
Last year, the "High School Musical" soundtrack ranked runner-up in the year-end chart with sales of 4.9 million; this year, although the "High School Musical 2" soundtrack only ranked eighth in the year-end chart, it was 420. Wan's sales are still not to be underestimated, which shows the extensive influence of the "High School Musical" series.
Linkin Park's new album "The Wake of the Last Day" ranked ninth, with sales of 4,000,800 and 80,000, especially after "Self Redemption (, weDane became the theme song of "Transformers". It was a huge hit, which brought the number of albums that sold more than four million in 2007 to "nine". The last place in the top ten is Beyonce, her album "Birthday" successfully entered the top ten with 3.9 million sales.
Outside the top 10, Kanye West, Kids in the Band (alFlaFlats), The Beatles Best Collection, Gwen Stephanie, Josh Groban, Nora Jones, Taylor S. Ten singers, including Swift, JayZ, and Times, and Magic Red, formed the second legion from the 11th to the 20th.
It can be seen from this that Studio Eleven has a total of five top-20 selling albums, including Evan Bell, "High School Musical 2" soundtrack, Taylor Swift, Cochran Times and Magic Red. . This is really a terrifying domination.
Among them, Taylor-Swift's album of the same name was also released last year, but this year it broke out the sales capacity of more than 2 million, and the battery life is also very good. What is worth mentioning is that the era of Gong Chahe, which only released the album at the end of the year, has such an amazing instant explosive power. Driven by the "apology", the album sales broke through the threshold of 2 million in one fell swoop, even surpassing the magic red band The second official studio album, released in the summer, was an unexpected result.
In addition, Chris Dotry and Kelly Underwood were born in "American Idol", and their record contracts were all signed under the banner of Warner Records, which also made Warner Records laugh again in the competition of the four major record companies. In the end, the reelection of the record market share throne was completed.
However, this time the entanglement between Warner Music and Sony Bertelsmann lasted until the last moment. In the end, the gap between the two was less than 0.5%. Such a small gap is actually just millions of album sales. The competition has completely entered a fever pitch.
What is disappointing is that the gap between Universal Music has been widened, and its market share this year has fallen behind Sony Bertelsmann Records by a full four percentage points. This is definitely not good news.
In 2004, Universal Music was still the dominant player. In 2005, Sony Bertelsmann Records emerged. In 2006, it became a three-part world.
More importantly, EMI has caught up behind, and the gap with Universal Music has begun to narrow. The global music market seems to be recovering, but the other three major record companies are booming, while Universal Music is regressing. This situation has also become a footnote in 2007 that cannot be ignored.
On the single sales charts, since "Me" was released at the end of the year, Evan Bell, strictly speaking, only released "American Secret (anret and "Firefly" in 2007. es two singles only.
The most dazzling single in this year's singles sales chart is newcomer rapper Akon. He has won a total of six number one singles throughout the year, three from his own album, and three for others. The song has undoubtedly become the king of newcomers. However, among the top ten singles sales charts, Akon is not the most dazzling existence, but Evan Bell.
"WaLadd" won 5.8 million sales in 2007 after 7.5 million sales in 2005, ranking first in the annual single sales chart. This is really an incredible thing, 2005 and 2007 albums, singles double charts are completed, this is definitely the first time ever. "Four" and "Life is a thousand years old" became works that go down in history.
While people sighed at Evan Bell's strong dominance, they also sighed at the low combat effectiveness of new music market works in 2007, and the double chart champions were reelected by last year's works, which is very important for the long-term development of the music market. It's really not a good thing. The newly launched music works in 2007 lack competitiveness, which is bound to be the biggest issue for major record companies in 2008.
And Beyonce's "Irreplaceable" single released late last year, which became the runner-up in this year's singles sales chart, is a continuation of this view. The competition between "Life is a thousand years old" and "Irreplaceable" has been entangled from the end of last year to the beginning of this year, and spread for ten weeks. As a result, at the end of the year, the two singles were still entangled, and the results remained the same. It is slightly better than "Life Eternal".
However, compared to the miserable album sales chart, the single sales chart is obviously much more energetic. The third song is the work released this year, from Rihanna and JaqZ's "Umbrella", with a proud score. ranked third.
Gwen-Stephanie and Akon's "ame" took the runner-up spot.
Evan Bell's "American Secret" was slightly less explosive, ranking fifth; after that, Fergie's "Girls Don't Cry (BgGrlry, Carrie Underwood's "In His Deception" "Before (heats, "I Want to Love You (IWanndLxeeYau by Akon, "Apologize" by Coch and Times, "GMarmarauu" by Fergie occupy the remaining five positions in the top ten .
It can be seen from this list that singers such as Taylor Swift, Linkin Park, and Magic Red have performed well on the album chart, but they cannot be seen on the singles chart. This is also determined by the different nature of the singles chart and the album chart, and it is even more difficult for Evan Bell to be able to win the double chart championship.
In the annual singles chart, the three singers Evan Bell, Fergie and Akon joined forces to complete the reign, and the three people and six songs firmly occupied the top ten, which can definitely be said to be a strong force. strike. Akon is a newcomer, and Rihanna has achieved such impressive results with only her second album, adding fresh blood to the American music scene.
In addition, Gong Chahe Times relied on a song "Apologize" to occupy a place in the album and single double chart, and it can definitely be said to be the most dazzling newcomer, and now they are promoting it by touring. , presumably the development of the return will be more and more smooth. And Evan - Bell's other single "Firefly (s ranked twelfth, not outstanding, but still performed very well.
Outside of this list, Katy Perry's single "Hello Girl" can definitely be paired with the phrase "talking about", which has won quite a few online for its mischievous lyrics. It attracted attention, and later attracted the strong recommendation of the big sister Madonna, which made Katy Perry a hit at the end of the year, and the trend was bullish.
In general, Eleven Studio has gradually begun to exert its strength in the music market. All singers have their own market. Tee-Perry has all won a good reputation and attention. Among them, the latter three have easily achieved such impressive results as newcomers, which is indeed eye-catching. Except for Katy Perry, who debuted a little later, Taylor Swift and The Age of Commonwealth have all been shortlisted for the 50th Grammy Rookie of the Year competition next year. This is definitely a huge happy event. Regardless of whether they can win the award in the end, there is no doubt about the strength of Studio Eleven in terms of music.
Of course, when it comes to the rise of Eleven Studios, the network field has always been an aspect that cannot be ignored. The release of Phwne at the end of June instantly pushed forward the process of the Internet age a lot, and Eleven Studio, which is one step ahead of the cooperation with Apple, relies on two social networks, Yahoo and Facebook, to easily Take the lead in the online world. ˇ
Before the end of 2007, YaTube resisted wave after wave of Hulu, which gradually slowed after its first six months of development, although most sponsored ads were renewed for another six months. Month - After all, the resource advantage of the Opposition Alliance can never be ignored, but at present Hulu.com still does not have much room for development: the living space exists, but the development space is very limited Now, the opposition alliance has stumbled through 2007. As for what will change in the new year, it is still unknown.
Before Christmas, Facebook surpassed Juyou.com. It overtook Juyou.com in terms of number of users, daily visits, and active users. It became the largest social network in the United States. Now Mark Zuckerberg has begun ambitious plans for the next step for Facebook.
In addition, it is worth noting that Eleven Studio has signed an exclusive cooperation agreement with a website called TwUtter, not an acquisition, but a cooperation agreement, which is really intriguing. This website, which claims to "change the world with one hundred and forty characters", has not yet shown much specialness, and has not landed on the iPhone platform for the time being. But this cooperation agreement was personally discussed by Eden Hudson, and everyone knows that this must be Evan Bell's idea, so Twitter's development curve is also worthy of attention.
Steady and steady progress in the field of TV dramas, solid accumulation in the field of music, coupled with the consistent strong momentum in the field of Internet, Studio Eleven's 2007 can definitely be called a full bloom, but the development of the other three parts is faster than the rise of the film field. , are still not bright enough. The most eye-catching achievement of Eleven Studios in 2007 came from the film department!
