V1 :

YTD Sales : Please read these guidelines before you request sales estimates, it makes my task a lot easier (apologies to regulars for the repetition).

1. Remember to check the thread before requesting estimates - they may already have been answered. Also, no more than half-a-dozen requests at a time, thanks.
2. Please be specific - name the artist and title for each entry you'd like an estimate for.
3. If a song/album isn't in the current Top 100, I won't be able to give a up-to-date estimate until C+ arrives (usually on Tuesday).
4. I only track singles/albums that have charted in the current year, and are/or in the top 200 sellers of the year (based on my estimates).
5. Please note my figures are combined sales & streams, and since I have no way of separating them, I cannot provide a split.
6. I keep a log of old sales totals from MW and elsewhere. Please PM me if you want to see it, or to report any errors you spot.

Thank you.

Years & Years just loosing out on that T10 placing at the last minute

Posted by: mdh 2nd January 2016, 11:00 AM

I'm happy Justin managed to sneak in to the top ten at the last minute (albeit twice, but still...), if he had missed the top 10 EOY it wouldn't really have justified his chart domination. Looks like Sorry and WDYM? will both be million sellers before we know it. And I wouldn't be surprised if Love Yourself manages to break the mark soon. ..and also WAYN? will eventually reach 1 million. so proud

Posted by: Dan_ 2nd January 2016, 11:11 AM

wow at Justin set to score four million sellers in one era (I know WAYN isn't really his song but it's on the album). Very impressive by anyone's standards.

*.* bieber gatecrashing the top10, twice, in week 53 ~ looks like both 'what do you mean?' and 'sorry' will join the million club this week~

8 million sellers within 2015 is mightily impressive, not to mention the top19 all clearing 800k ~ chart sales bonanza

It is interesting that one direction have their lowest selling album this era yes i know lower album sales but with all the hype around the split/ break id have thought that might counter balance it

However it is fantastic to see little mix getting their besy selling album and even sweeter to be selling better than oned direction thus far
