Pretty sure the same user who has been posting the US sales for the singles on another forum posted the sales last year for the Greatest Hits. A large chunk of the sales are from streaming, as yeah it only entered low on the album chart. I was surprised too at how high it was.

US (Albums w/TEA w/SEA) - 12/11/2020 :

- Spice = 7,998,797 (7,493,124 physical)

- Spice World = 4,332,166 (4,186,046 physical)

- Forever = 233'104 (214,696 physical)

- Greatest Hits = 791',344 (148,109 physical)

Greatest Hits doesn't include Victoria's Secret Sales so would be at 1.4 million up to 2020.

That is amazing if so, not sure how though when it had 1 week on the US chart at #93 and then has never been seen on there again since? There are #1 albums from that same year like Britney's Blackout which have only just sold 1 million over there, and that certainly enjoyed more recognition over there than the GH.


I think its down to the streams Wannabe has amassed. Their calculation of streaming seems a bit different from the UK, so it's not like they'd have sold physical/downloads of the GH...

Yep US album sales have a formula that basically includes everything down to even individual track downloads. So Wannabe will help the GH much more over in the US than the UK where they are much more tight on these things and even Wannabe's streams are downweighted.

The GH could easily be over 2m in the US now given how much streaming has grown in the 3 years since the last update.

Thank you! What a smash kink.gif

So in summary...

6,800,000 - Wannabe
1,722,000 - Say You'll Be There
1,400,000 - Spice Up Your Life
1,136,000 - 2 Become 1
910,000 - Stop
828,000 - Too Much
683,000 - Goodbye
222,000 - Who Do You Think You Are
128,000 - Viva Forever
86,000 - Holler
41,000 - Headlines (Friendship Never Ends)

The non-Wannabe songs listed above have barely outsold Wannabe combined cry.gif (they add up to 7,156,000).

It's interesting to see which singles have sold more in the US than UK, and which have sold less. Less in the US: 2 Become 1, Goodbye, Holler, Headlines and of course WDYTYA and Viva Forever.

Just short of 14 million singles over there then and 14 million albums so about 28 million records, not bad really.

I always wonder why they didn't tack on 'Mama' to the US single of 'Say You'll Be There' as it dropped on the same week as US Mother's Day.

I don't think double a-sides were a thing in the USA.

Frankly, the US market was already labelling them as a 'kids act' so releasing Mama would have been even worse for that at the time.

What they should have done was release Who Do you Think You Are as well, for sure!!

Interesting, wonder what some of their popular album tracks like Love Thing, Move Over and NGUOTGT have sold in the US if Voodoo and Tell me why have done 10k.

I think it’s pretty impressive that streaming has increased Spice’s sales in the USA by nearly a million copies. You can start to believe the 30million worldwide sales they were claiming!

Thanks for the update. They would be mad not to at least update Spice cert in the US when it hits 10m copies as that is Diamond and a huge thing in the US. Especially if the Documentary and possible tour makes it happen sooner than expected.

Do we have a GH update too?
