'Vertigo' by U2 sold 51k when it went to #1 and that's 53% of its total sales - very interesting, and such a shame. We laughed last year at Cher Lloyd, JLS and Nero unlikely to make it to 200k, but some don't even make it past 100k!

 

It was actually a far bigger hit than those sales suggest. The fact that it was utterly dominant on the downloads chart back then shows where most of its sales went. Apparently when downloads were first included in the charts in 2005 total weekly sales doubled, so "Vertigo" probably would have shifted about 180k in total. Had those been chart eligible it would have been a pretty decent total for a #1 in those days!

ouch at the number 1s that haven't even sold 100k overall yet and got almost half of their total sales in their first week :o they really are the worst type of non number 1s, hopefully those days are over now

 

Do you not remember last summer lol!!

true, but I think all the number 1s last year at least passed 150k, which should really be standard for a number 1

 

so Pure Shores would be the lowest selling sales at number 1 for a million seller, by quite a bit it seems :o

Excluding a handful of songs which are million sellers with 0 sales at #1 :kink:
