QUOTE 14 October 2016 Singles Will Young - All Time Love - Silver - Released: 2006 200k Albums Will Young - The Essential Will Young - Silver - Released: 2013 60k Just shows how music keeps selling. The last figure I had for the Essential in 2013 (32k) The last figure I had for ATL is 157k but not sure of the date. This post has been edited by truly talented: Oct 28 2016, 03:29 PM |

Thanks for the update TT.
 I'd seen the info for the Essentials album but the ATL figure is new to me. |

The great thing is particularly singles those sales are sold and not just shipped...
I can't believe how well The Essential has done! 60k is amazing with barely any promotion. That's almost half 85% Proof... Surely 85% Proof is at least 100k now.. This post has been edited by sajjadali: Nov 2 2016, 02:56 PM |

The album sales were 87k at the end of 2015 so I would think it won't be too far away from gold but may take a while to trickle sell to that milestone.

I'm a tad surprised to be honest as you'd think appearing on Strictly would make it sell a few hundred copies a week. 13k isn't a lot, but I guess leaving early didn't exactly help him. |

Is that on shipped or sales? Maybe it with downloads has done it? It's a brilliant album , should have sold at least that!

It's just as well Wills label took ages to apply for these things anyway... So it's not even sold 100k!  Wow. I really thought it had sold at least that considering the What The World Needs Now Is Love re-release...No wonder he had trouble with his Island deal..i know he is renogiating but that won't cover costs of 4 singles plus Like A River too. I thought Brave Man would help shift albums it never did same with WTWNNIL. A shame! Maybe he should have just stuck with Sony Music they knew what they were doing with him.

With no airplay or tv promo the re-release was never going to garner many sales. 85% Proof sold well all things considered. |

He did have Brave Man & What The World Needs Now Is Love.... I can't get over the fact that he had Love Revolution, Thank You, Brave Man, Joy not to mention a promo video for Like A River as well as WTWNNIL and he's only sold 100k...or not even that! He got 4 singles and not one was a hit What a shame.It's a shame radio wasn't supporting him this time round. |

He needs another hit like that! Any update on 85% Proof, can't believe The Essential sound almost equal or slightly less! Surely it must be close to 100k? |

85% proof is his best album by far - it should have sold a lot better.
