Yes, the album is selling well and the single is absolutely massive. The exposure is there. I'm not sure the critical acclaim is though. It's hit and miss at best. All I heard from the point in time it was released through to when I listened to it was really, strongly negative reviews from both the press and people I know.
Some people like it, some people don't. I think it's rather arrogant to suggest that those who do like it will eventually snap out of it and come to their senses.

Actually, it's universally acclaimed by most critics.

I see your knowledge, honestly, but it's certainly no hit or miss. More hits out of the park then misses.
