After "Almost Fame" entered in 1994, sales have ushered in a continuous upward curve. The suppression of "Music Box" has been completed for eight weeks. At the same time, the market's explosive performance has also been accumulating rapidly. The sales data of the album.

At the end of March, "Almost Fame" had sold 2.41 million copies this year. If we add last year's 1.22 million sales, this would mean "Almost Fame" was released. In four months, the total sales volume of the album reached 3.63 million. The stamina of the album is endless, which makes people see the powerful appeal of this album in the entire market.

"Music Box" surpassed "Almost Fame" again in the second week of March, and once again won the Billboard Championship after eight weeks, but this time it took the top spot to consume the last trace of the album's market energy. The album's ranking on the bulletin board dropped sharply, dropping directly out of the top five. Although relying on the album's excellent reputation, it still lingers in the top ten, but it no longer has an impact.

Under such circumstances, "Almost Fame" once again took the advantage of losing only a week in its hands, not only keeping its ranking in the top five on the bulletin board, but also leading the "Music Box" advantage. It's getting more and more obvious. With almost no one optimistic about it, an impossible task was completed.

Maria Kelly, who is in the sky, is facing the fledgling and controversial glory to death praised "Music Box" against the groundbreaking attempt "nearly famous". This is no simpler victory or defeat in anyone's eyes, but in a duel. At the beginning, everyone’s speculation was also verified, Maria’s "Music Box" easily led the "nearly famous" and no one even noticed the competition between the two albums.

But I guessed the beginning, but did not see the process, and did not expect the result. "Almost fame" then burst out with fiery energy, first for eight weeks, it suppressed the "music box" and the next week. Lax, let the "Music Box" complete the counterattack; but what followed was a long period of total suppression, and the "Music Box" was no longer able to surpass the "nearly famous" whether it was sales or on-demand. This also added a touch of tragic color to "Music Box"'s billboard album ranking champion in the second week of March.

However, "Music Box" still has a sufficient advantage in the total sales volume. After completing the five-platinum certification in January, it achieved the six-platinum certification at the end of March, and again exceeded seven million at the end of June, and obtained the seven-platinum certification. This also means that "Music Box" only achieved less than 3 million sales in 1994, and was "almost famous" to complete a full overtake; but in terms of total sales figures, "almost famous" in a short time It is still very difficult to complete transcendence within.

Of course, Maria is only one of the rivals in the glorious to death music market, not the only competitor. Therefore, with the "almost fame" in Vietnam, the "tragic showdown" that the media continues to hype has gradually faded out of sight. The outstanding performance of "almost fame" has attracted more and more multimedia attention.

After March, the sales of "Almost Fame" not only did not show signs of decline, but with the advancing of time, whether it was Hugo news or band news, the publicity has always continued, making the band and the album's recognition constantly In the gradual rise, the sales volume also fluctuates with the change of the propaganda strategy.

"Almost Fame" stayed in the top five of the Billboard Albums chart until the end of April. It stayed in the top five for a total of 19 weeks, and nearly two-thirds of it was in the top three. After the album fell out of the top five, he stayed in the top ten until the third week of September, stacking the cumulative weeks of his top ten on the Billboard Albums chart to thirty-nine weeks; and in 1994, the remaining weeks During the time, this album remained firmly in the top 20 position, extending its strength from the first week of 1994 to the last week.

When "Don't Mind" turned out in 1991, the performance on the Billboard Albums Chart was compared with "Almost Fame". The data has its own advantages and disadvantages, but on the whole, the two sides are still on the same level, but "Don't mind. "This album has a data that cannot be surpassed by "almost fame" at present. This album has stayed in the top 200 of the Billboard Albums chart for a full 252 weeks. This data can be ranked in history. Among them, it ranked in the top 20, and it was not until May 1996 that it fell out of the list. "Almost fame" has a long way to go before reaching this data.

But in addition to the number of weeks of stay on the Billboard Albums Chart, the multi-faceted data of "Almost Fame" can already be compared with the miracle that "Don't Mind" created at the beginning.

"Nearly Famous" achieved a total of 5.33 million sales in 1994, and the cumulative sales since its release has reached 6.55 million, and it has easily obtained the six-platinum certification.

Although "Nearly Fame" could not complete the overtake of "Music Box" before the end of 1994, the whole situation is already very clear at this time. "Nearly Fame" has been in the top 20 of the Billboard Albums chart. It stayed until the last week of 1994, when the "Music Box" was already hovering beyond thirty.

If this continues, the gap between "almost fame" and "music box" will become smaller and smaller. Perhaps the exchange of positions will be completed one day in 1995.

Even in 1994, "Almost Fame" failed to complete this feat. People have already seen the victory and defeat of Glory to Death and Maria. "Music Box" is Maria's third studio album, and it is also Her best-performing album so far is also known as the "top work"; and "nearly fame" is only the first album of glory to the death, and the performance has made the entire music market impressive and more important. The thing is, this album is an important presence throughout the history of rock and roll.

Stand on top of each other. Obviously, Glory To Death turned out to be a proud newcomer, and he stood in the ranks of the first group overnight, gaining a strong advantage. Henry Bloom's insight has been verified once again. And Henry, who successively unearthed the two top singers of Maria Kelly and Glory To Death, has become one percent of the existence of the music agent field.

Such brilliant results achieved within a year in 1994 also made "almost fame" successfully stand on the shoulders of history, although there is still a long way to go from sales of 10 million, and from 6 million to 1 This distance of tens of millions may be more difficult than any previous week, and may never be reached, but at least from the outstanding performance of the whole year in 1994, we can see the great influence of the band Glory to Death on the entire music scene.

The total sales volume of 6.5 million copies is not worth mentioning in the long river of history if only the sales are calculated, but the important thing is that this is not only the sales of an album, but also the glory. Death caused waves and shocks to the entire rock music industry.

From the performance of "Almost Fame" in one year and one month after its release, it can be seen that a large number of alternative rock, represented by the Glory to the Death, Pumpkin Broken Band, have brought great strength to traditional rock and grunge rock. A powerful challenge. Sales are the most direct manifestation of the music market. You can clearly see the earth-shaking of the entire music market, and you can also see the audience’s direct response to this change. In this case, Alice Prisoner, Pearl Sauce, Nirvana Although the grunge rock represented by the nest band is still in full swing and not inferior, it has been unable to stop the reshuffle of the rock pattern.

If 1993 was the year of rock revival and the rise of the crowd, then 1994 was a year when rock and roll blossomed and the market presented a brand new pattern. From the beginning of rock and roll, the music situation of the past three years was completely disrupted, plus rhythm and blues and hip-hop. The emergence of the music market has entered a golden age.

Up to now, although "Almost Fame" has a long way to go to break the historical record of "Don't Mind", although the album "Almost Fame" still has a lot of controversy, although people are still enthusiastic. Discussing "Alternative rock represented by emerging forces such as Glory to Death gradually substituted popular commercial elements into rock..." Is it a good thing or a bad thing, but there is no doubt that the market has changed and the change has come, whether you like it Whether or not, the facts have already been created, there is no way to reverse time, and changes have already taken place.

So, whether this change is good or bad, whether this change can last for a long time, or is it drowned in history after a flash of light, is this change a mark on the entire history of rock music or an addition of a category? It can only be proved by time.

Therefore, there is no doubt that the "almost fame" that is so glorious to death has truly become the "Don't Mind" in 1993. After its release in December ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, the whole world was turned upside down. When people again tried to follow the pace of "pop", the world had completely changed.

Although Glory To Death did not hold this lofty power when releasing the album "Almost Fame", they just wanted to make their own music, just want to be a part of the entire rock age, for Hugo This is even more so. He has no idea that his small step, a small step to death, will actually become a big step in the entire history of music; but history is created unintentionally, just like Nirvana. At the beginning, I didn't expect the glory of "Don't Mind", and the same was true of glory to death.

The Glory to Death, Broken Pumpkins, and Tool Band represent the new American metal rock forces, and the British rock revival forces represented by Goatskin, Shen Yun, and Blot have rewritten the world's rock map. At the same time, the rock revolution led by Glory to Death started in 1993 and began to spread gradually, changing the entire world rock and roll pattern in the 1990s.

Compared with history, this is just a small step for the giant.
