I'd hazard I guess that it's sold over a million copies.

Given it has sold 1.8 million copies, it is there as a million seller.

Yes but it's a novelty song and even though I bought it, for my daughter, it stands out like a sore thumb there.

Its one of the biggest selling songs ever, and million sellers are not about perceived quality, more popularity.

Why should novelty tracks be excluded? The track I think stands out as the weak link there is Impossible.

The Elton John track only sold millions because it was coupled with the Diana tribute track.

The song there that absolutely didn't deserve to sell a million, imo, is Cheryl Cole. It's an okay song but just that.

Yes was announced by the OCC a couple of weeks ago.

There is a Now! Music thread in Pop to discuss this so I am closing it.
