Do the Circus sales include the live version or just the original release?
The Dream of Christmas has very underwhelming sales.
Original, I imagine. The live version was a DVD release only.

The unplugged version I'm almost sure is double platinum which was counted separately to the original album.

It will be fantastic when Beautiful World finally goes over 3 million and becomes 10x Platinum. The equivalent of Diamond in America and Canada. (10x)

I would love Take That & Party, Nobody Else and Wonderland to all creep over into next sales certification as I believe all three should be higher. For the first two they were succesful by the standards of the day. I just think they should be higher to fall more in line with their post reunion sales.

I think what would help both 'Take That & Party' and 'Nobody Else' is if they put the hit single versions of 'Could It Be Magic' and 'Never Forget' in place of the original album versions.

Get the albums pushed on vinyl would be a big help.

They really should start working on that as I think they would grab decent vinyl sales.
Maybe it will happen for anniversaries.

Rule The World is now their most succesful song in the UK having crossed into 3x Platinum and 1.8 million sales.

The song which kept it at number 2 for weeks, Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis is on 2 million UK sales. Another case of Band Aid and Last Christmas!

UK Singles - Platinum+

Take That:

Triple Platinum: Over 1.8 million copies sold.

Rule The World (2007)

Double Platinum: Over 1.2 million copies sold.

Back For Good (1995)
Patience (2006)

Platinum: Over 600,000 copies sold.

Babe (1993)
Never Forget (1995)
How Deep Is Your Love (1996)
Shine (2007)
Greatest Day (2008)
The Flood (2010)
These Days (2014)

Tally: 4 (90s), 6 (00s)

Are there any other Take That songs you feel should be Platinum?

I would say based on longevitiy:

A Million Love Songs (1992)
Pray (1993)
Relight My Fire feat. Lulu (1993)

Out of interest, here are all the boyband singles (New Kids onwards) which have gone Double Platinum or higher in the UK.

UK Singles - Platinum+


Triple Platinum: Over 1.8 million copies sold.

I Want It That Way (1999) Backstreet Boys.
Rule The World (2007) Take That.
What Makes You Beautiful (2011) One Direction.

Double Platinum: Over 1.2 million copies sold.

Stay Another Day (1994) East 17.
Back For Good (1995) Take That.
Everybody (Backstreet's Back) (1997) Backstreet Boys.
No Matter What (1998) Boyzone.
Keep On Movin' (1999) Five.
Uptown Girl (2001) Westlife.
Patience (2006) Take That.
Glad You Came (2011) The Wanted.
Little Things (2012) One Direction.
Story Of My Life (2013) One Direction.
Night Changes (2014) One DIrection.
Steal My Girl (2014) One Direction.
Drag Me Down (2015) One Direction.
History (2015) One Direction.
Reggaeton Lento (2017) CNCO & Little Mix.
Sucker (2019) Jonas Brothers.

While One Direction has sold a lot of singles (14.4 million to Take That's 12.6) they are far behind on album sales (4.4 million to Take That's 14.4 million)

Overall UK sales currently are:

Take That: 27 million.
Westlife: 22.3 million.
One Direction: 18.9 million.
Boyzone: 14.3 million.

These are the only four boybands currently to have cumulatively crossed 10 million sales in the UK. Take That and Westlife being the only two to have gone over 10 million in both albums and singles separately.

Take That with 27 million is incredible and they will hold top position for years to come.
