The Beatles April 4, 1964
in the world there are a lot of good artists/rock bands who have done masterpieces called albums, the Beatles just make songs to call'em albums, if you hear a Beatles? album it's just has 2 or 3 good tracks but if you hear a gnr's one it's full of masterpieces so there's something called corruption , that's what the cute Beatles have bein' doin' since they were made up to sell their faces n' lyrics when they didn't make good music before, their company records spends too much money to keep the Beatles alive to date, so no matter what gnr do the Beatles will be the number 1 wrongly!
you need to get laid or take a chill pill. damn your obnoxious!lol

The overal best selling debut album comes from Alanis Morisettes, by far... 'Jagged Little Pill' has sold over 30 million copies.
Source: wikipedia
Can't be. As JLP wasn't Alanis' debut album. She released some teenypoppercrap earlier. I don't even wanna hear it. I do love JLP though!
Shows how reliable wikipedia is...
EDIT: Source:
http://www.geocities.com/alanisdisco/albums.html
I did a search now myself and as you say, she released some albums before.
But she is in the Guiness Book of World records for having the biggest selling debut album. Guess they are talking about international debut albums. Remember 'Live Like A Suicide'...

LLAS was an EP. That has always been differentiated from an LP, i.e. a full album. Alanis, however, has two(?) full albums to her name prior to JLP. Guinness can suck my ass!
If an album is good it'll always be picked up for international distribution. At least pop albums. So IMO the worst way to define the record is by the geographic target area or distribution. If her first would've been JLP it would have been an international release eventually. But it wasn't. It was crappy teen pop. But a full debut album nonetheless.
Now that I've dissed Wikipedia:
Show's how reliable Guinness Book of Records is...

Didn't they also hold a "longest rock concert" record at least for a while?
Gn'R's longest concert was 4 hours, so if thats an unbeaten record thats pretty sweet
Ill have to go check my old Guiness books.
Pity Axl didn't feel up to it in Montreal.

Axl can damn every other artists/musician/celebrities just cuz he knows he's the best one ever!, GNR was the only band to produce greatest hits, other bands just make crap to call it music, someday would someone make a song like Sweet Child o'mine?if you say "yes" so step down n' see a good psychologist
, the Guiness world records just suck for me cuz it never tells the fucking truth anyway

LPs (Long Play) are albums. The term is mainly used for vinyls.

Considering you're only 15, it's not odd at all. Vinyls must seem like prehistoric objects to you
