Certifications announced on the BRITs Twitter account today:
SINGLES:
Avicii - Wake Me Up (6X PLATINUM)

Noah Kahan - Stick Season (PLATINUM)
Sam Ryder - Space Man (PLATINUM)

ALBUMS:

RAYE - My 21st Century Blues (SILVER)
3.6m units for Wake Me Up
interesting for Unwritten to go 2x plat (1.2m units) just as it gets a chart comeback whereas Murder only just passed 1m units.
I knew ‘Unwritten’ was likely quite comfortably passed 1m after seeing it was certified Gold in 2018 and Platinum in 2020. Much like ‘Murder on the Dancefloor’, I’ve noticed it’s been gaining relevancy again the past few years, ever since that video of that lad singing it in the car!
I’m of course thrilled with ‘Padam Padam’ being certified Gold! A shame it just missed out on a 2023 Year End Chart appearance.
Good to see 'SPACE MAN' go platinum!
Also finally for 'Padam Padam' too. Shame it was a couple of weeks late though.
Great for Unwritten to be certified 2x Platinum.
Someone please remind me: when was the cut-off release date for the original physical sales of older singles to be combined with streams for certification purposes?
Was it (Jan) 1989 or (Feb) 1994? I know, for example that the original sales of Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’ (1994) are added to streams for certification purposes, but not ‘Fairytale of New York’ (1987). Does anyone know whether the cut-off point is 1989 because of the change in sales needed for each certification, or 1994 when Millward Brown took over producing the chart?
And also, do you have a link to where this is explained? Thank you
^ The cut-off point is February 1st, 1994 as that's when Gallup stopped compiling the charts and the defined universe sales era started.
In 1994 Millwood Brown took over chart compilation, Their new technology meant that all shops would now get EPOS machines and more shops would be added to the panel. By the end of the decade the chart return shops accounted for circa 95% of the market.
That cutoff rule really discriminates against older artists. Surely modern technologies could retrospectively add in pre 1994 sales? It just means every Drake utterance that no-one has ever heard of nd that never made the top 100 gets certified multi platinum but pre 1994 songs that were top 10 smash hits that everyone can sing every word to fail to get the certification recognition they deserve!
'No one has ever heard of' except for, you know, the many hundreds of thousands of people that need to stream them for them to get those certifications
I'm surprised not to see Last Christmas or All I Want For Christmas Is You in the list. Do they take SCR sales or ACR?
I guess they’ve gone too far down the rabbit hole of not combining pre and post 94 to start now.
I think the “no one has ever heard of” line, while not true, does touch on something real. It’s possible to have huge hits these days by appealing to certain demographics while passing much of the population by completely in a way that it probably wasn’t last century.
Oh yes I do acknowledge that. Death of the monoculture etc. etc. But it's still easier for (current) songs that do reach a wider audience to get certified for obvious reasons. And increasingly streaming is adding more and more to the totals of the established classics. Fair enough that it's still an uphill battle for the slightly less monolithic but still well known pre-1994 hits to get to an appropriate level of certification though.
So there is an issue with the site that has been going on for a little while, where recent certifications don’t show up when you search by the song/artist name. Bar December 1st, all the December certifications currently don’t show up when you search by name.
The website was updating at least once a month to fix this, as October and November had the same issue, but December hasn’t been fixed yet.
It's also not listing the multi platinum number for those songs certified multi platinum as of certification date January 5th.
^ I’m sure they don’t count - if they did I reckon Now And Then would be silver by now.
Will need to see if Now And Then was certified last Friday. Counting ineligible sales, I have it at just over 200,000 sales.
They may be ineligible for the chart but they are recorded on the OCC database because Alan Jones gave us the sales figures. All sales should therefore contribute to certification. I'm sure this applies to other artists.
I would agree that the Beatles Thursday streams are lost forever.
That's a bit dramatic! Surely will just take it a few extra weeks, it's not like it's dropped to 0 weekly sales now (it was still top 100 in the first week of the year!)
Certs for singles now available at HAVEN foruns (care of UKChartsPlus).

No new Taylor Swift certifications for this week. If UltraCruelSummer is reading this post, you haven't updated the Taylor UK Certifications page in like... 2 months.
Oh yay Tomcraft getting that certification after all I was a little worried the new streams might not actually be counting towards its total due to the OCC database having the artist name wrong in the sales chart It has always seemed odd to me that it never managed to get certified before, fair enough that its sales at the time fell a bit short but I didn't think it was that forgotten of a song to have not been able to fill in the gap with streaming.
Also great to see Florence + The Machine trundling over the gold line with their brilliant latest album and 'No Idea' and 'Heart-Shaped Box' going platinum <3

Great to see the certifications for Lana, Lorde, Stromae and The xx ❤️
The Billie and Peggy songs were my two favourite hits of last year, so that is also most pleasing.
I completely forgot about ‘Suncity’, I really liked that at the time after not being too fussed about Khalid’s material up until then. Cool to see Empress Of grabbing a certification via that.
Oh amazing for Mary J Blige and Marina.
We love to see 'Angels' going gold + certifications for 'Chemtrails Over The Country Club' and 'Supercut'
Mother Mother silver certified *_* all the virality paying off x
Two platinum songs from the same Eurovision Song Contest for the first time ever - and both awarded within 4 weeks (I think) of each other.
What a random tune from The Little Mermaid to get certified (Alan Menken - Bedtime). Didn't realise it was a big streamer.
So pleased Primadonna has finally gone Platinum.
So happy for Marina!
I’m guessing this is her first Platinum single?
Marina having a platinum singles pleases me greatly!
Also yay for Troye (Wild) and The xx (Angels), two huge faves of mine from the 10s
Great stuff for Peggy, Tate, Taylor, Billie and Marina and also love that 'Maneater' is platinum too.. a classic!

'I Am The Walrus' and 'Surfin' Bird' silver back to back, iconic.
Huge week of good certifications for Lewis Capaldi.
62 singles this week (plus 5 albums and 1 video).
This is unexpected,
Trashmen - Surfin' Bird - Charly - Silver - Single - 08.03.2024 - 20.03.2006
Spent 4 weeks in the Top 100. Chart run (2/5/2009) 50, 79; then a year and a half later 3, 41. Unusual.
Their only hit. No albums.
It's a song from 1963, its first chart run was after being used in an episode of Family Guy and then the second run was a campaign for Christmas #1 (presumably inspired by said Family Guy episode). Was a top 5 hit in the US on its original release.

two gold singles for Mitski oh my! anyone caught calling her a one hit wonder is gettin decked
brilliant that Silhouettes has made it to Gold now, remains fairly underrated amongst Avicii's singles output
Just catching up on this thread, while its great to see 2 Unlimited get silver with no limit im totally shocked its not at least platinum as it was such a huge hit back in the day.

*_*
how did NFR manage to go Platinum!! Last I read it was on 147K
AGOG to hear that "Life" isn't already a million-seller
Oh MY at 'Crab Rave' being certified
New certifications for 2 Chase And Status/IRAH collabs in the same week *.* also hooray for the certifications for 'Love Don't Let Me Go (Walking Away)' (has this really only just gone silver or is that not counting its original run?) and 'Leon The Professional'.
Happy to see "Harleys In Hawaii" go silver! Should've been a massive hit. Glad to see it's trickle selling really well. Going to pass 500 million streams on spotify soon. May eventually overtake "Never Really Over" which has 680 million currently.

Good to see The Wombats' 'Turn' going Gold - a modern indie classic.
I wonder why that CoComelon album has only just been appearing in the charts the last few weeks - it's obviously been "selling" at a decent rate for some time if it's gone gold now.
'EARFQUAKE' going platinum *.* a good week for Tyler with 'Goblin' finally going silver too.
(btw assuming the silver album titled 'Crybaby' is meant to be Lil Peep?)
I’m surprised Endless Summer Vacation didn’t hit gold months ago. Flowers didn’t help the album that much but I suppose it also didn’t get much promotion.
Plus her spectacularly messing up the rest of the campaign (as per usual) didn't help.
Miley Cyrus isn't generally a big album seller and this is no different.

what's that Neil Horan-Heaven album?
Great to see that 'As The Rush Comes' is certified now, a mid-2000s dance highlight some justice for Southstar also *.*
'No Role Modelz' triple platinum without ever making the Top 100. Nice to see 'Not Nineteen Forever' double platinum and 'Rasputin', 'Never Forget You' and 'Buddy Holly' platinum.
Fun fact: After "Labyrinth" and "The Way I Loved You (Taylor's Version)" were certified silver this week, Taylor has reached 50 MILLION certified units in the UK. 43.4 million from songs, and the remaining 6.6 million from albums.
Technotronics pump up the jam classic finally platinum, only took 35 odd years.
'Labyrinth' getting its turn from the weekly Taylor certification grab bag <3
Nice at a few dance classics going silver this week, Motorcycle as already mentioned + Da Hool and Frankie Knuckles. Also Noisettes and Weezer going platinum *.*

Can't belive whitneys one moment in time is only going gold now as I was sure it was platinum..
Nice to see Beautiful South and Inxs go platinum.
It's 400,000 since 1994. Sales before that are never included in these certifications.
If we know that it sold 327k prior to 1994 why can’t the OCC just use that data? Do they not have all of the figures pre 1994 or something?

Will this be the week that a certain someone acknowledges and understands that certifications are based on sales from 1994 and beyond, i.e. not including sales from pre-1994?
Not sure who you’re referring to but I don’t see the problem with people wanting to ask questions or clarify things.
Apologies if this has been answered before, but is it easy to find pre-1994 sales numbers to combine them for songs that continue to be popular (Dreams, Don’t Stop Me Now, lots of Christmas songs etc.)

Thank you for bringing those to my attention!
Shocked Donna Summer - Hot Stuff is only gold as I thought it would be platinum at least. It was massive back in the day.
The reasons for not including sales from before 1994 are
1) These figures are estimates derived from sample sales and are not intended to be 100% accurate, just a best guess for public consumption, although they may be fairly close in many cases. Until 2013 certifications were based on copies shipped by record companies to the UK retail market. Such figures were known accurately to the record company making the application.
However, even from 1994 onwards retail sales figures were still estimates, but increasingly accurate. In reality what is being certified today is streams with an a reasonably accurate estimate of prior physical sales and download sales from 1994 included.
2) Even if a decision were made to include approximations from prior to 1994 the OCC would have to have estimates for everything ever released even if the single had only a few thousand sales prior to 1994, not just the big hits because so many songs are available to be streamed. Their database only debited in 1994 so that would be an impossibility.
'Low-Life' certified what an album - 'The Perfect Kiss', 'Sub-Culture' and plenty of... New Order-esque drums
Do you know if the same old pre-94 info is available anywhere for albums?

Great to see Hips Don't Lie continue to notch up sales. Always loved this, it’s possibly my favourite from Shakira.
'Let's Go Surfing' certified
It is a phenomenal effort just in the copying, collating, typing and posting these original chart Gallup/BMRB reports, and it should be clear for those interested in these over on UKMix but don't know the history that it couldn't have happened without three key chartographers of our time - Robbie himself who does the posting, KingofSkiffle who does the collation and database elements, and most importantly Kobyhadrian, who originally obtained all the reports from the BPI and spent Lord-knows how many man hours typing them up into a presentable form! They have between them summoned up a very thorough and as accurate as is available database of panel sales activity across almost two decades' worth of singles chart history, and the quality and consistency of the results now being steadily made accessible to us all can't be underestimated. I'm keen that fellow chart travellers on BuzzJack are aware of this if ever they investigate these chart reports and make use of them.
Yes, it still leaves us bereft of such detailed data for the three most recent decades since Millward Brown have been at the helm of official chart compilation, and of course the pre-1976 era when popular music as we know it truly established itself. But we've got to be grateful for what we get, and tolerate the reality that there'll almost certainly always be significant gaps where there is far less data, or none at all, accessible to us. Anything like exact weekly or monthly panel sales reports from the latter period probably no longer exist and the further one goes back, the less accurate any data becomes; as to the former, there will be much accurate and useful sales information stored, but unless we ever have the luxury of someone posting Millward Brown original reports, or somebody gets rare (and ludicrously expensive!) access to the OCC's database, one has to doubt that those decades will ever be covered in the same depth chart-wise as the 1976-'94 canon. So we're lucky even to now have that.
Does the record company have to request for certification, how does the process work?
No, not now. It is automatic. Sales come from the OCC.
Automatic since 22nd July 2013!
Kind of messy before then, with labels having to request it, and shipped physicals meaning that albums/songs could get certification levels above what it had actually sold.

'Raining Tacos' being a certified hit
'Nuketown' being certified *.*
Ew at Caity Baser but kinda funny that songs called 'Pretty Boys' and 'Pretty Girl' got certified in the same week.
And although I am mad at Taylor right now, lovely to see 'the lakes' joining the endless stream of new certifications for her. The other two new silvers I am not so thrilled about x
Loose must do quite decently over time, with at least 3 songs I imagine stream very well (Maneater, Promiscuous and Say It Right)
'Back To The Old House' certified the acoustic version on Hatful Of Hollow is one of my favourite non-charting songs
What a fabulous lot of 90's classics. Tbh I'm surprised Linger and Tubthumping wasn't already there. But I'm pleasantly surprised people are still listening to Runaway and Café Del Mar in 2024.
oh great for Nelly Furtado, last I had it on 1,090K so glad the album is over 1,200K now
Loose is such a classic album, the 4 singles are all classics
Rihanna - Breakin' Dishes (SILVER)
Not an album track from 2007 going silver. Great tune!

Kooks’ Naive selling over 3 million!! Didn’t see that coming!
'There'd Better Be A Mirrorball', 'Everything In Its Right Place' and 'marjorie' certified Nice at Modjo going platinum too.
'Beautiful Stranger' platinum
Struggling to understand how ‘Especially For You’ has gone platinum. Any thoughts? I’m sure it hasn’t been streamed enough for 600,000 since 1994 as it’s far from being one of Kylie’s most streamed songs.
Modjo appear to have been certified platinum twice, but with different record labels accredited. So I'd assume its actually done 1.2m minimum.

Pleased for Maisie Peters. It’s difficult for new (UK) artists to get a silver album.
amazing for Maisie she was not even on 30K when she left the top 100
Funnily enough I just stuck on Bubblegum Bitch by MARINA yesterday, fantastic to see that Gold; hope there’s some more certifications on the way for her!
Sexy No No No finally silver. Novcane, Candyman and Edge of Seventeen platinum. Someone Like You 7x P over 4 million sold!
'Sexy! No No No...' finally certified love to see it, also here for the 'Tainted Love', 'Live Forever', 'Zombie', 'Edge Of Seventeen', 'CHIHIRO' + 'Let It Happen' appreciation.
I wonder how long Justin Timberlake's 'Filthy' was sitting at 190k+ without being certified. Even as someone who thought it was a little bit overhated at the time... surely there cannot be many people going out of their way to listen to it in current year x
'Time' and 'Let It Happen' going platinum we love to see!

Great to see Alicia Keys - "Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart" platinum!
Also good two weeks for Dua with "Houdini" platinum and "Training Season" Gold.
Nice to see Celline's "I Drove All Night" now silver.
I'm surprised OneRepublic's "Secrets" is only just now gold. A great example of a song that always felt much bigger than what its chart performance/sales would indicate.
Amazing to see ABBA's "Don't Shut Me Down" being certified! It seems to trickle stream fairly well. Hoping "I Still Have Faith In You" may have a chance of being certified in a few years or so as well. It's currently on ~51 million streams on spotify vs ~81 million for "Don't Shut Me Down".
Nice at Gorillaz' Song Machine album being finally certified too (still waiting for season two x).
Also hooray for 'Harder Than You Think' going platinum, appropriate timing with it being Olympic/Paralympic season again!

'Ride' is still my favourite Lana song happy it's gone gold!
Nice to see Bon Jovis greatest hits go 5 times platinum and it should eventually manage 6.
Hard to believe help by the Beatles is only gone platinum now feels far bigger and very happy to see Alishas Attic and the Beautiful South on the list.
Same comment different week
Go on Justin Fletcher
Mr. Tumble stays winning
what's incredible about Bon Jovi going Platinum x 5 is that their first GH is Platinum x 6
so would be Platinum x 11 (3,3 million) combining the 2 GH
Because of You and Ride!
Just testing a new format. Do you guys prefer the original one, or this one? Multi-platinum songs and albums will have extra info like (2x), (3x), etc.
Think the new format is great! And thanks for posting the info so promptly every week.
But we don’t know what pre-1994 sales were for many records, only some record company shipment figures.
I got an email from BPI several years ago suggesting they were trying to add pre-1994 sales to present day digital sales but found it too difficult due to large amounts of missing “sales” and record companies no longer in existence. This idea was therefore abandoned.
Doubt if we will ever get complete sales figures.
The 1994-1997 situation applies also to album sales. (but probably worse than singles). The OCC said a few years ago that the 1994 Beatles album, Live at the BBC, sold 480,000 but other sources at the time said it had shipped around 800,000 copies. A great under-estimation.
Loving the new format! Thanks for your updates every week
Great new format, easier to read, thanks Daniel
The new format is a big for me to look at. It's very well thought of.
I like the new format too. Great work!!
Nice to see Just Be reach Silver for Paloma Faith.
Wasn’t expecting that at all.

(or more realistically the new Deadpool movie)
Deleted.
'Baby Cakes' going platinum 20 years to the week it reached #1 *.*
G.R.L going 2 x Platinum with ‘Ugly Heart’ - what a girl band anthem
Salt for Ava Max reaching Silver is quite the surprise.

Rep her 3rd triple platinum
I’m just baffled that, out of all her albums, Reputation is one of her most successful ones. It’s almost unanimously agreed to be her worst, and in the US it’s certainly her least sold album bar Evermore

In what planet Reputation is unanimously her worst lol
You need a reality check
Wait and see how the TS is gonna do and see if no one likes it
Great to see Olly’s album reach 5x Platinum.
Also great to see Never Ever reach 3x Platinum, even if I did think it had sold more for some reason.
If we're going by critics, 'reputation' has had a reappraisal in recent years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reputation_(album)#Critical_reevaluation
As for fans of Taylor, from what I read on forums/social media it's become one of her most revered albums! It has a couple of particularly popular/fan favourite album tracks: Don't Blame Me and Getaway Car (the former has actually become the most streamed track on the album). So it doesn't surprise me that the album streams consistently well and has made its way to 3xPlatinum.
Tbf Reps initial success was seen as a massive come down from her 1989 era , it has become more successful overtime,
Also if you hyperthetically combined TV with originals Red and Fearless would still be significantly more commercially successful (as of now)

Great to see Try Everything for Shakira go Platinum. I feel it often gets forgotten amongst her singles.
Octopuses Garden ❤️
It seems that practically all songs get silver certification sooner or later lol. They really should either remove the silver certification completely or make it like:
Silver: 400k
Gold: 600k
Platinum: 1 million.
^ Still waiting for when a Dannii Minogue single goes Silver!!!
She fits into the "later" category
oh didn't realise The Secret of Us album was about to go Silver
I think having as low a bar as possible for certifications is a good thing as it’s one of the only tools for knowing sales of a track.
Frank Ocean’s Seeet Life finally silver!

Finally a new certification for Janet
Great to see Pumps by Amy Winehouse go Silver. I played that so much back in 2007/08.
Pink Pony Club silver!!
Weird seeing Avril’s What The Hell as platinum status.
‘Pink Pony Club’ going silver the week is hysterical. And just as I was wondering whether it was going to eventually become A rare song to be one of the 100 biggest selling singles of the year without ever charting.
Can anyone think of any previous examples of a song being one of the 100 biggest songs of the year without having any chart history?
Some interesting certifications this week! Love seeing Janet getting a new certification. Hopefully the UK tour dates result in some other tracks getting a boost.
Agree with the sentiments of What The Hell going platinum seeming weird. Based on Avril's certifications, I make that her 4th biggest song here ahead of songs like I'm With You and When You're Gone which I would have thought of as more well remembered.
Aaliyah getting her 4th single certification is great to see. Wasn't expecting it to be Back & Forth, but admittedly don't know how well it sold on initial release + it has the benefit of being on the one album that was available to download/stream well before the rest of her catalogue was made available.
Also hadn't realised Kate Bush's Army Dreamers had gone viral this year. Suppose it is quite fitting given the state of the world right now.
