Was Crush a commercial flop?? cause I was under the impression they did pretty well with that album.. It may not have sold 15 million copies but it got them some attention with It's My Life and I think decent album sales.
I know Bounce didn't sell that great but I think it sold a bit and I have no idea about TLFR
I can't imagine BJ will ever reach the level of popularity in album sales as they had in the 80's, 90's unless they manage to produce some big hit singles in the next few years. They had a minor hit with Misunderstood and my gf told me she liked that song before I'd even told her I liked BJ. So they still are getting some attention as far as the charts are concerned. Unless they strike some kind of musical goldmine however, I have a feeling it's all downhill as far as sales are concerned from now on.
Still, if they make great albums from now on then it doesn't make much difference to me. If TLFR had sold as well as Slippery, I'd just be worried that it will encourage them to make their next album sound like that...
good music + poor sales = good music...... and that's all that matters to me!
