Total worldwide sales : 3.5 million
The album made the no.1 spot in the folowing countries:
Brazil / Canada / Estonia / France / Germany / Greece / Hong Kong /Italy / Lebanon/ Mexico Norway / Sweden / Switzerland / South Korea / Taiwan
Madonna's electronic / acoustic album released while the world was at war got shoved to one side, on initial release it was no.1 around the world but sales dried up fast and the singles from it faried only reasonably well, the album as a whole does not focus on the war but it was perceived as doing so because of the lead off single 'American Life', she was seen as anti-bush / anti-america and so the US turned their back on her.
