'Black Magic' has pretty much doubled 'Wings' sales lol. As for 'Black Heart' I'm not sure, but I think that might have sold less.


I meant 'actual sales' (no streaming).

Black Magic sold 600K+ with no streams. Work From Home is just around 450K or something - it's yet to cross Platinum in pure sales lol.

Do you have a source for those figures?

Well I just divided the song's total UK streams by 100 and then subtracted it to the latest figures. I don't know if it's correct but I checked ATRL and I think I did it right laugh.gif

How do you know the total streams though? It just seems like a lot of guesswork to me.

I don't think Black Magic would have quite made 600k pure sales. More like 500 - 550k. WFH is probably on around 450k pure sales.

Kworb only has Spotify streams. It doesn't have streams from other streaming services.

It’s reached 1 billion views!
Great feat. The song did really well. I can’t believe it’s 8 years since it was released.

Finally!
Happy for them.
Wish it was another song with that popularity though. Black Magic is so teen pop, and so Little Mix will always be seen as a teen pop act by the general public, even though they have songs Woman Like Me, Sweet Melody, Move, Confetti, etc.

I'm not really sure I'd consider 'Woman Like Me' a better representation of them than 'Black Magic'.

The song is an iconic classic and still beloved today, but they have many well-known songs so it's not as if they'll be exclusively regarded as a teen pop act just because one song was the first to achieve a billion views on YouTube.
