January 23, 201213 yr Bruno Mars had quite a successful year! Surprised that Adele is "only" 5th. I guess if it was January - December though there would be a huge chunk off of Bruno Mars' top 2 songs.

Selling over 25million worldwide I am guessting when you combine The Lazy Song in one year. Just The Way You Are must have also sold a couple of million in 2010 also!

Just The Way You Are must have also sold a couple of million in 2010 also! Well, 29.2million is the total when you combine JTWYA, Grenade and The Lazy Song. Add in Marry You and It Will Rain and I'd imagine he's well over the 30. 35 million seems plausible? Huge year for him, I'm really surprised. I'm also vaguely surprised to see Moves Like Jagger "only" on 7 million.
