Hello all, quickly made this account to say hey! I am said friend of @BigMixers, I made this just to say I'm glad you're all enjoying the stats! It's sooo exciting to be able to see all this info and share it with other fans of my favourite artists. I plan to have updated all of Kylie's stuff over the year for you guys, but in terms of being active on here I probably won't be massively, I'm trying to cut down screen time as it is. But whatever era's you guys want updated just let @BigMixer know and they can forward it all onto me and i'll give them the stuff to give to you guys. Enjoy! ^_^

 

Welcome and thanks for the info - always amazing to get updated stats! :cheer:

I think the OCC are wrong there. I've always took issue with that number.

 

Actually the database I use is curated by the OCC, so strange for conflicting figures to exist from the same source

Great stats, thank you both for sharing and posting. Us chart addicts love updated sales figures.

 

Oh...Golden era update next, pretty please.

And the Deconstruction albums please (Including Hits+) :wub: :wub:

Thank you for this info! Great to have some updates. I Believe In You is so close to Silver!

 

Hopefully it’s inclusion on SBIT will speed up its silver certification!

Good to see her 2002-2004 singles making up a little for the big drop in CD single sales during that time.

Oh...Golden era update next, pretty please.

 

The update I posted was the previous decade (2000s), so we should continue era by era starting with the 2010s and the Aphrodite era.

 

Gonna make a list of all singles & albums and send it to A.J., so he can post it himself or send it back to me whenever he has free time :)

 

 

Yippee, thank you BigM and AJ.

Body Language has sold quite well considering how the singles performed.

Interesting how all the singles from the Light Years era outsold the Fever singles with the exception of the lead single. Just proves what kind of an impact one huge single can have.

Edited July 31, 20195 yr by BigMixer

The importance of a strong lead single should never be under estimated.

From reading your post i tallied up the singles from Light Years and Fever (not including the leads).

 

Light Years accounts for 592,521

Fever accounts for 553,697.

Yes but singles sales quickly declined year on year from 2000....The 2nd and 3rd Fever singles initially did better than the LY ones though Kids/ OANLT seem to be doing as well as or better with downloads and streams.

 

2003/4 were particularly terrible years for single sales. IBIY/GYU suffered the greatest.

@BigMixer send me the list whenever you want, however, I need to let you guys know that for anything before 1994, my figures will be off. I noticed when looking for Madonna's older hits that a lot of them had very low units compared to OCC articles, and it was the same for pre-1994 songs by other artists like Kylie and Whitney. I emailed OCC operations and this was their response:

 

Hi,

 

Ah yes, this is because the data on our system only goes back to when the online was first created – Week 4 1994.

 

Unfortunately it is very tricky to find data before this date as we used to record chart metrics/figures on paper before this. So the article which was published last year would have combined all these figures+ to get the total DUS.

 

So you won’t be able to find overall totals combined on the OCC online, you will just have to run a bespoke chart for all commercial models to find the physical, digital and streaming since 1994.

---

I checked for Kylie's older stuff e.g. Better the Devil you know and the numbers were indeed a lot lower, so I can find all SPS from 1994 to today, but before 1994 will probably be only from OCC articles

 

 

Oh. That's a shame, but that's still plenty of numbers since 1994.

 

Just sent you the list!

Yeah unfortunately the OCC only have post-1994 data in their archives, however, I do have access to lots of estimates for Kylie's pre-1994 singles based on things like Year End Charts so it is possible to work out reasonably accurate overall totals. But anything you can supply is much appreciated indeed! Looking forward to the next list!

Can’t wait for the next set of stats - thanks for doing this :cheer:

Seems like someone was too eager :yahoo: Can we get to the next page please?

Bring.

It.

On.
