Greatest Works of Art (Шаблон:Zh) is the fifteenth studio album by Taiwanese singer Jay Chou, released on 15 July 2022 by JVR Music. It is Chou's first album since his fourteenth studio album Jay Chou's Bedtime Stories and was preceded by six singles released from 2018 to 2022—"Waiting for You" with Gary Yang, "If You Don't Love Me, It's Fine", "Won't Cry" with Mayday vocalist Ashin, "Mojito", and the title track. The song "I Truly Believe" was released in 2019 as the theme for the 2019 Chinese action film Skyfire. The title track and "Still Wandering" also had music videos shot for them, which were released in July 2022.[1]

The album was the best-selling album of 2022 worldwide,[2] and holds the record for highest first-week sales, selling five million copies upon release in China in July 2022.[3]

Background

The album, named for its title track, is an homage to modern European art and culture; Chou himself is an avid art collector.[4] Prior to its release, Chou said the material would be "old sounds recorded with vintage instruments".[1]

Greatest Works of Art attracted attention due to users leaving low ratings for the album on Douban prior to its release, which Douban later removed and apologised for allowing in a post on Weibo.[5]

Promotion

Chou first released the album in June 2022 in a vlog filmed in Paris, where he also shot the music video for the title track.[1] The album was promoted on Spotify billboards in New York City, Toronto and Taiwan, with Chou also releasing a track-by-track commentary edition of the album on Spotify.[6]

Commercial performance

According to a report released by the IFPI in March 2023, Greatest Works of Art was the best-selling album in pure sales worldwide in 2022 with 7.2 million of copies sold.[2][7][8] The album sold five million copies in China in its first week, the highest first-week sales for an album worldwide, a record previously held by Adele's album 25, which sold 3.38 million copies in its first week of availability in the United States in 2015.[3] It also sold 200,000 copies in Taiwan in its first week.[3]

The album also became Chou's first album to chart in Australia,[9] where it debuted at number 29 on the chart dated 25 July 2022.[10]
