Is I Gotta Feelin' the BEP's biggest selling single in the UK then? I think it's IGF 1st, BBP 2nd and WITL? 3rd. Although I think WITL? is close to 700k now and BBP is just over 600k. Not sure. :unsure:

 

I don't think BBP has outsold WITL yet.

 

I have a feeling MMH has nearly outsold BBP now, if not already outsold it. Not sure though.

 

IGF, WITL, BBP and MMH are def their top 4 in whatever order though.

IGF, MMH, BBP, WITL afaik. ;)

A bit off topic but looking at the sales for Elton's Candle in the Wind 1997, they are 4,860,000 do you think that he maybe has passed 5 million since then. Just out of curiosity.

Hang on, didn't Shut Up sell over 600k as well? Fergie arrived at that point. :wub:

'Shut Up' had 300k.

I don't think it's even sold 100,000 since 1997, it's hardly a classic despite being the highest selling song in the UK of all time.

 

I'd like to one day see Band Aid or Queen overtake Elton, but that's not exactly going to ever happen :lol:

I Gotta Feeling>>Meet Me Halfway>>Boom Boom Pow>>Where Is The Love>>Shut Up

 

in that order I think.

 

IGAF - 985K

MMH - 720K

BBP - 645K

WITH - 635K

SU - 360K?

 

I read in the top 200 singles of the decade that Shut Up got 360,000 copies sold. I'm pretty sure.

I gotta feeling is so close it the million and if it managed to stay top 50 for the next month it would pass the million. I love poker face aswell but im glad i gotta feeling has outsold it.

Hasn't Where Is The Love sold more than 635k? IIRC it was over 600k in 2003 alone (623k?), and must have sold over 35k in nearly 7 years.
