Impressive for Alan Walker considering the song's Spotify weekly chart run of 197-176-172-161-xx - where did that 200k come from? ohmy.gif

Mariah's Butterfly randomly passing 300k 22 years after release cheer.gif

Maybe Rainbow could be next, though I have no idea what its sales are, but it can't be that far off Butterfly.

Just shows once again that Spotify is not as dominant as everyone assumes.

To be fair, we only know of its top 200 Spotify chart run - for all we know it could've had a long and healthy run outside the top 200, but we just didn't get to see it (well, obviously). It was released four years ago after all.

What are its numbers on Spotify in total?

Back when the OCC still compiled a main top 200 Singles chart, 'Alone' by Alan Walker spent just two weeks on the chart. Entered the chart published on 20/01/17 at number 195, climbed to 193 the following week and then dropped off the chart.

Guess it’s just been steadily accumulating then! I think its chart run would have been longer if it wasn’t for the Christmas songs in its opening weeks as it was released in early December. Anyhow, seems to be a much more popular song than its chart performance suggested! wub.gif

'Wish You Were Here' is another addition to the list of platinum songs that never went top 40 (I thought it would have been another one that never even went top 100 but it did have a week at #68 in 2012, same week the cover by Ed Sheeran et al. from the Olympics went top 40).

Happy to see 'Give It 2 Me' finally pass Silver, not appearing on Celebration has really hindered its streaming.

'Hometown Glory', 'Outside' and 'Who Knew' all receiving updates. wub.gif

'You're So Vain' sold 320k in 1973. Adding the first few weeks of its chart run from 1972, the 1988 live version that charted and 1991 re-release, I'm guessing sales are around 400k, so ~800k sold in total.

'Heroes' sold 55k in 1977; 655k sold in total.

'Crazy Little Thing Called Love' sold around 460k in 1979/80; around 860k sold in total.

'Listen to Your Heart' sold ~150k in 1989/90; ~350k sold in total.

'Sir Duke' sold 305k in 1977; 705k sold in total.

Former Dotmusic poster and sometime Haven poster Chartfacts compiled a detailed list of Beatles singles sales back in 2002. The article is still available to view at beatleslink.net where it was re-posted by Wolf (another former Dotmusic poster).

http://www.beatlelinks.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1351

Sales for 'All You Need Is Love' from back in 1967 are given as 550k to 560k and around 560k to 570k to 1987.

BPI award today.
Beatles - Abbey Road - Apple Corps - Platinum 3x - Album - 06.03.2020 - 09.09.2009
Sales (physical, downloads, streams) from 1994.
But it should be 8 times platinum (or 2,400,000) for sales from 1969.
