Oh djdj, give it up mate, you lost this argument weeks ago, Madonna will never be as big as Queen ever again😎
You know Queen outsold and outstreamed Madonna on a daily basis long before that movie even was announced right?
These figures are all given by these CSPC articles, you can check one by one. I never twist figures.
They did outstreamed but I dont know they outsold. I mean, Madonna released tons of new albums, Queen's catalog did sell that well before the movie?
Rolling Stone IS most reliable music magazine in The world. They are Pro. We are amateurs.
Did Madonna’s performance at Live Aid got as much recognition as Queen’s performance? Everyone knows the answer. No. Talking about EAS sales, even though Madonna has 202 million sales and Queen has 192 million sales, Queen has more EAS than Madonna, and why? Because of its singles. As you said La Isla Bonita has 500k daily views, now, tell me more songs. Queen has most Youtube views and that’s it, and from many songs, not just 1 song. A last thing, the 5 cities where Queen obtains more listeners in Spotify are not from the US, and y’know Madonna is also in the same situation, but with the difference that Queen doubles Madonna’s numbers in each one of the cities.
Madonna has the luck of still being alive and she has the opportunity to release more albums and songs. Freddie Mercury, and as a consequence, Queen have not the same luck. Madonna WAS more popular than Queen, but now we are in 2020 and not in the 80’s. Queen has simply aged better than Madonna and that’s a fact. Madonna had better sales than Queen, and even though, Queen outsold her.
Queen surpass Madonna because of streams instead of singles. Those Spotify listeners only proove that Queen is popular in recent years. Madonna not only peorformed at Live Aid but also Live 8 in 2005 and watched by 2 billion people. The video is still getting millions of views on YouTube.
are you crazy "had better sales" then "outsold"? In 2020 Queen is even more popular than the Beatles and Elvis and Michael Jackson on streaming platforms. No need to compare them to a female singer.
That is what i’m saying. Madonna was more popular and had better sales than Queen years ago. Now we are in 2020 and Queen has outsold Madonna and has more impact that her. Also, if you say Live Aid, literally 99% percent of the people will say Queen first than Madonna, and that’s it, no place for discussion.
And yes, streaming=sales in this moment. I do think you know that the album with more pure album sales is Lover, with 1 million. And even though When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? is the best selling album of 2019 with 4 million album sales. We live in a world that now streaming is very valueable, and those 4 million sales that Billie’s album has, more than the half are streaming. Queen has outsold Madonna and by now, they have more impact than her. And yes, Madonna WAS more popular than Queen and had better sales.
Stop using the word "impact." Check Madonna.'s cultural impact. Queen do not even have a Wiki page like this
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_impact_of_Madonna
Queen do is more popular than Madonna at present, but it sometimes thanks to the movie. When you are speaking about historical place, time will tell the truth I dont want to speak anything.
Madonna also performed at Live 8 and watched by 2 billion people. her performances totals tens of millions of views on YouTube. In 2020 Queen is even more popular than The Beatles and Michael Jackson, but 50 years later 100 years later we dont know.
Now your quoting Wikipedia, oh my!, your in a sorry state djdj , trying to clutch at straws using that old out of touch and inaccurate media, nobody trusts wiki anymore is so shit.
Just get over it Queen are bigger than Madonna end of.
