Posted by: Harve 19th February 2009, 10:33 AM

They do but they're meant to be from xx01-xx10 because the first AD year was "1AD", the 10th year was 10AD, not 9AD. We celebrated the milleniums one year early .

Posted by: On The Hustle 19th February 2009, 10:35 AM

no because we were in the first year of the millennium in 2000. It's like I'm 17 years old but I'm in my 18th year of life.

you need to look at it like this,

1st Jan 2000 - 31st Dec 2000 = 1st Year

or

1st Jan 0000 - 31st Dec 0000 = 1st Year of that millennium.

The thing is, we use the Gregorian calendar, and that doesn't have a Year Zero: it went from 1BC straight to AD1. (Although how they when to do that is unknown.)

Posted by: drynet 28th February 2009, 03:17 AM

on the debate of where does the year 2000 fit in, think of it this way - if i was to say 'the eighties' people would think 1980-1989 right? not 1981-1990, because 1990 would indicate the start of the 90's (having a 9 there instead of an 8)

Therefore i would say the decade is 2000-2009

Posted by: Robbie 28th February 2009, 11:33 AM

just to confuse things further / add to the argument, 2000 was the end of the 20th Century (when you think about it it is obvious, a century is 100 so 20 centuries is 2000), 2001 being the start of the 21st century which will end in the year 2100. We did celebrate the millennium a year early but it was all overrated and expensive anyway, so who cares?!

A decade is simply a period of 10 years so the 80s are 1980 to 1989, the 90s are 1990 to 1999 and the noughties are 2000 to 2009. There is nothing that says a decade is a period of time that ends in an 0 (ie this decade doesn't run 2001 to 2010).

So this decade began in 2000 which was still in the 20th century

Thanks for the update.. do we know for sure that Alexandra has outsold Shane and Kylie to become a) the biggest selling X Factor single of all and the best selling female vocal song of the decade? Because the figure for Alexandra looks more accurate than the seeming estimates of the Kylie and Shayne figures.. if that makes sense. I'm sure this means she definitely will take both these crowns soon if she hasn't already, just wondered if it's confirmed!

That's total sales, they have carried some sales over from 2008. That was some debate over her total sales for Just Dance we came to a conclusion 2,000 sales are from last year, I've re-edited her total figure in the sales thread for this week, so 2,000 sales have to be knocked of from the previous sales threads.

total sales should be... for this year

So total should be 522,395 for the decade.

Gareth has as well, which is more of an achievement really, as back then they were all physicals, I expect Leona will end up being the biggest single seller in the UK now though, out of all the solo talent show contestants. Gareth doesn't release chart music anymore, Will is mainly an album seller now and doesn't bother the singles chart much anymore, I can't see Alex Burke or Shane Ward outselling Leona in the future either. I guess it all depends on who x-factor throws up next, it didn't do that well last year.

Posted by: spiidey 15th April 2009, 04:09 PM

It might just do it but it'll now need a big boost around the time of single/album#2 release as it is out of the top 200 and selling less than 1,000 per week.

If it can get back into the top 40 for a few weeks around single/album #2, it might just do it. Really want it to get a million this year, as I reckon she could have another million seller next decade and make it 2 decades in a row.

But there is no millennium ths time round so we won't be as hard done by.

Posted by: zeus555 19th April 2009, 05:58 PM

At the end of 2009, The OCC will give Radio 1, the Top 40 of 2009, AND the Top 40 of
the Decade - both will be broadcast. Indeed, the Top 100 of the Decade will be compiled,
but, it likely that Radio 1 will only make/find the time to play the Top 40. (The Top 100 of
2009 will be compiled too, & 'Music Week' will carry that. They may even carry the Top
100 of the Decade - Singles & Albums).

Posted by: spicefunk 27th April 2009, 06:49 PM

Still top 200 last few weeks, so i'd wager a few 1000 anyway. The best way to keep this list anything like up to date would be to add accurate estimates to the existing figures based on the top200 each week (like others do for the YTD singles/albums thread) because the way this is, only the favourites/odd MW figure for new stuff ever gets updated which is kind of a positive bias. Interesting read though, i realise that would require good knowledge of sales predictions and a lot of time

Hey, there was a show on 4Music today, using figures from the OCC. It was the 100 biggest selling US tracks of the decade (ie. UK sales by US bands). Its seemed pretty up to date but probably about a month out, e.g. Beyonce was 500k with if i were a boy, and GaGa was listed as 540k with Just Dance. Annoyingly i only caught the last 31 but they are probably the most use for this list anyway. Its more the older ones it'll be useful for where we don't get sales updates; some have went up a fair bit, i'll only list those which don't already have a higher (ie. more up to date) figure.

Steve can you let us know what Take That are with RTW now. Two weeks ago their (almost) exact figure to that date was 632,500 - but with the tour - I know its sold a lot more as it was up into the 50's on iTunes during last week. I'm assuming it may be near 640,000 or thereabouts. I know Shine, Patience and Greatest Day were all inside the iTunes top 100 even now - as RTW still is.

Posted by: MFR 21st June 2009, 08:23 PM

You are quite right. It had sold something like 338,000 by the end of 2001.

Posted by: Andy70 22nd June 2009, 02:53 PM

I only have the Tweenies on this

Tweenies - Number One 287000, I shall check the end of year sales for when it charted...

Posted by: Andy70 22nd June 2009, 03:01 PM

Just done a bit of checking, it sold 286k in 2000, and in 2001 did not make the T200 year end chart, so sold less than 56k.
It charted on 11 Nov 2000 and charted T75 for 23 weeks, so some of its chart run would be in 2001 as well. I think from #16 onwards would be sales in 2001? Maybe say it sold 15k? Unless someone knows better, so 286k + 15k = 301k? Maybe round up to 305k?

6-{5}-7-8-10-10-9-8-12-16-27-39-45-44-48-61-68-70-73R(2)-74-72-74-73->23

I think Leona is the only one to surpass her first single in sales.

Posted by: spiidey 26th June 2009, 11:15 AM

She is indeed. None of the others (of those that have won to date) ever will , even GA's The Promise won't overtake SOTU.

Gareth, Will and Leona have all performed admirably with subsequent singles.

And Hi, not seen you around for a while, hope you are keepign well.

Posted by: Eighth Day 26th June 2009, 11:26 AM

If my maths is correct and this list covers all songs from 2000 onwards then we have had 10 years worth at the end of this year and in those 10 years 200 songs have sold 300K plus. Thats an average of 20 per year making the top 200. This year however we are only just half way through and already we have 43 entries in there. This surely reflects the upturn in single sales as a result of itunes (and related sites). Or just how poor sales were just a few years ago !! Or it could be that the music is just so much better now.... but somehow I don't believe that

yippee 100 posts !! Only a few thousand more to catch up with some of you guys.

Are you sure the figures for Take That songs are correct? I would have thought that over the last few weeks (given the number of times it has re-entered the top 100) - that RTW would have sold more than any of their other songs. If this is right - then since three weeks ago (the last note I had) then RTW has been outsold by Patience, Shine and even Greatest Day?

Unlikely but if it gets back in the top 40/75 for a few weeks when Album #2 is released and can hang in the top 200 for a bit then it might just make it. More likely it will cross it in 2010 though, pity I was hoping for Leona getting a million seller this decade and next

GaGa and KoL are getting very close together on the charts each week. GaGa will no doubt get another sales boost from the 'best of 2009' sales boosts at the end of the year, but I could see KoL overtaking (or getting very very close to) GaGa in coming weeks.

I wonder if out the top 20, she has the most weeks on the chart? Suprised she is still in top 40 charts

BL should be decade #11 in two weeks max... almost certainly this week I would think?

Posted by: spiidey 18th August 2009, 04:31 PM

Its sold an average of 488 copies per week for the last 4 weeks so should hit #11 next week (assuming the Atomic Kitten track's sales aren't moving).

Posted by: Adam 18th August 2009, 04:40 PM

Do we think Alexandra will make the top 5? She's still a few k off but what with her about to blow up properly (Hallelujah sure to be used on her X Factor montage and the like), she could do it, right?

Any up-to-date figures for all the TT entries here. I'm assuming RTW has at least sold a few thousand more as someone said Leona's BL has been shifting almost 500 a week for the last five weeks or so - and as RTW has been constantly ahead of it in all the download charts I'm assuming it has sold more. Cheers!

Exact figure up to the last chart for 52 weeks of Sex On Fire.

completely down to singles selling more again

the songs around it such as Madison Avenue - Don't Call Me Baby, Toploader - Dancin In The Moonlight, Outkast - Hey Ya!, P!nk - Get The Party Started, Britney Spears - Toxic are/were much bigger songs. Just they came out in years when the singles market was dying.

Is there anyone who can update Take That's figure for RTW (and some of their others if possible). That figure of 657,574 has been stagnant for about three months now and I know they have sold more. I'm sure the picture will be the same for a few artists around there too ... especially Rihanna.

I think she could do it, 35k in 10 weeks. Thats 3.5k per week, with the extra exposure Leona gets this time of the year and with Lloyd covering it on x-factor last week it could just make it.

Nooo Why did La Roux have to overtake that CLASSIC BEP song

Posted by: spiidey 23rd October 2009, 12:59 PM

Its going to be tight.

It's at #118 in the midweeks so will only sell around 1.8k this week.

It will probably sell around that value (or less) until Happy/Echo is released so will need to reverse what it has lost c/w the 3.5k in the remaining weeks post Happy's/Echo's release.

Probably needs to get back into the top 40 for a week or so, and then hang around the top 75/top 100 until the end of the year to make it.

I reckon it'll probably fall just short, which really sucks, and pass the 1 million in the first 4 weeks of next year.

I really want her to have 2 million sellers in 2 separate decades too

Posted by: 6weeksatnumber7 23rd October 2009, 07:26 PM

The big question: will Leona's Run and Black Eyed Peas' Boom Boom Pow both top 600k by year's end, making them the only two artists to have three platinum singles in the 2000s?

The 1990s best sellers list is similar - most of the tracks are from the late 1990s, the earlier years didn't sell much at all. 1990-1993 in particular barely appear at all in the top 100!!

The summer of 1994 is the turning point, after Wet Wet Wet there's suddenly loads (All 4 One, Whigfield, Pato Banton, East 17 etc) and from 1995 things just explode.

wow your list is a lot better than mine.

Do you mind if I paste it all onto the first post?

Posted by: Andy70 30th October 2009, 09:04 AM

No probs, as long as you give Haven some credit

Posted by: Just Plain Steve 30th October 2009, 09:31 AM

OK thanks.

Posted by: Grami© 30th October 2009, 09:50 AM

Am I the only one who thinks that the records from 11-20 below should be in the top 10 instead? That top 10 just sucks
I doubt any of that list will be remembered in 2019 by the general public other than Kylie.


3. Gnarls Barkley - Crazy 967,000
4. Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love 967,000
5. Atomic Kitten - Whole Again 961,000
6. Lady GaGa – Poker face 832,175
7. Kings of Leon – Sex on fire 831,900
8. Enrique Iglesias - Hero 819,000
10. Eminem ft Dido - Stan 770,000

Posted by: RobSummers 31st October 2009, 10:46 PM

Wow no MCR and they were no.1 for a few weeks. I'm sure they would've sold enough to be top 350

Posted by: Andy70 3rd November 2009, 08:24 AM

What year were they #1, and I'll check the sales database, have a feeling they had lowish sales...

Posted by: Adam 3rd November 2009, 07:14 PM

Is it Tony Christie that has moved down for Alex and Band Aid 20 to move up a place? Why so?

Posted by: Just Plain Steve 3rd November 2009, 07:15 PM

You'd have to ask Andy

Posted by: Andy70 4th November 2009, 10:06 AM

Alex Burke has climbed above both of them, plus Band Aid still sells a few at Christmas, with the Tony Christie song, you have to take out the 1970s sales for the original, it has sold 1,197,000 in total, and 1,137,000 in the 2000s, as far as I know

Posted by: robbie83 4th November 2009, 04:50 PM

Hi, just noticed there are two Rihanna Unfaithful

302. Rihanna – Unfaithful 255000
225. Rihanna – Unfaithful 299000

One of them must be Shut up & Drive?

Thanks.

Posted by: Adam 4th November 2009, 07:22 PM

Aha, thanks so much!

Posted by: Andy70 6th November 2009, 08:39 AM

I'm not sure how much shut up and drive sold, I assumed I'd put the same song twice and have since deleted the lower one, I will look into it, cheers.

Posted by: Grami© 7th November 2009, 11:51 AM

MCR must be close! Had 2 weeks at #1 and didn't ever sell more than 40k in a week I don't think.
Anyway by the end of 2007 they were on 225k.

Posted by: Andy70 8th November 2009, 08:19 PM

Shut up and drive did less than 200k, so would be unlikely to be on the list, as for MCR, they could be on 250k, I just dont know, there will be a few songs lower down that I dont know about, but I'm hoping the higher end of the chart will be fairly close to the end of decade one

I would if Frankee's FURB managed to push 250,000 eventually?

Posted by: jamiehutton 29th November 2009, 12:04 AM

I Gotta Feeling should be above just dance

Posted by: LL1 29th November 2009, 12:45 AM

Leona's Run is in the top 40, its sold over 600,000 now
Thats 3 singles over 600,000 sales, INCREDIBLE.

^ 3 Platinum singles for Leona in less than 3 years (!! )

Posted by: spicefunk 10th December 2009, 05:48 PM

is this thread dead now? not updated for a while...?

Posted by: Just Plain Steve 10th December 2009, 05:55 PM

Yeah I'm leaving it till the official one is published now so we have it's more of a surprise.

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 10th December 2009, 08:55 PM

Does someone have the up-to-date figure for Take That's RTW. It sold around 5,000 last week alone and has been inside the iTunes top 150 for months now ... so it must now be more than the figure on the front page.

Thanks

Posted by: jamiehutton 13th December 2009, 03:01 PM

119. Lady GaGa – Paparazzi 414,205
120. Beyonce – Single ladies (Put a ring on it) 414,405

How come 120 is higher than 119??

Posted by: tonyttt31 15th December 2009, 07:40 PM

Is there an update of this?

sorry...just saw this.

Posted by: Irishguy123 15th December 2009, 10:43 PM

Wow at the sales of Sex On Fire, if only they had made their comeback at the beginning of 2008, they could well have had the best selling single of the year.

Posted by: Sharpshooter 22nd December 2009, 01:44 PM

Does anyone know the current sales of Sex On Fire? If it is likely to surpass 860k? Number 14 is going to be really close with Gaga and Leona lewis.

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 22nd December 2009, 01:50 PM

RTW sales are now past 700K

Norma

Posted by: BrayFish 22nd December 2009, 02:07 PM

I'd estimate it is still selling a good few k per week, so I'd guess they're nearing 900k now. Probably a trickle-sale mill seller.

Posted by: ChartBuster 22nd December 2009, 02:24 PM

Update anyone?

Posted by: Snowball Steve 22nd December 2009, 07:09 PM

Posted by: AH Gold 13th January 2010, 08:01 AM

Any news on an update?

Posted by: LL1 13th January 2010, 04:53 PM

Leona Lewis - Run is at #40 i think, sold over 600.000 now. Downloads alone.

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 13th January 2010, 07:28 PM

Anyone got any figure for Take That's Rule The World. I've calculated it must be well over 700K.

Thanks

Norma

Edit .... its currently on 711,622 Cheers Ry!

any update on the full listing?

Posted by: adancing 22nd April 2010, 08:42 AM

actually if anyone noticed, Victoria Beckham is there in the top200 of the decade @135!
One of the most bashed singers of our time charting better than many respected and critically acclaimed acts!

Also, some people were asking about total sales of Kings of Leon - Sex on Fire and Take That - Rule the World, I try and keep on top if those sales each week, and have a list of the biggest selling singles ever

108 SEX ON FIRE – Kings of Leon (2008) 968,425

RULE THE WORLD - Take That (2007) 736175


Anything else on the overall biggest sellers list, just let me know, obviously Lady GaGa and Black Eyed Peas continue to go upwards...

For the Leona fans, I have this...

BLEEDING LOVE – Leona Lewis (2007) 984,000

Posted by: X gunners X 23rd April 2010, 12:14 PM

WOW Alex's sales are amazing.

Posted by: Steve's A Mess 23rd April 2010, 02:50 PM

I'm sure About You Now was above The Promise and both were in the Top 100 in the previous list given sometime in January.

Posted by: Braysayer 23rd April 2010, 03:44 PM

Sex On Fire should pass the 970k mark this week with luck then

Posted by: Norma_Snockers 23rd April 2010, 06:28 PM

On Take That - I find it strange that the pretty mediocre Greatest Day is only 19,000 sales behind the brilliant Shine.

I wouldn't have expected Will's E/G sales to have increased much, if at all, but they seem to have gone down since your last official update in October last year

Good to see increases on his others though.

Posted by: Crowan 24th April 2010, 09:47 AM

I vastly prefer Greatest Day to Shine

Posted by: Andy70 25th April 2010, 07:11 PM

I think there were a few incorrect Top 100s put out there, this Top 200 comes from Chartsplus.

And the reason for Will Young's figure going down is an official figure from mw or some tv prog, so I downgraded my own figures.
