Great to see ABBA in the top three of all time, having Eurovision after winning Melodifestivalen, there's hope for Loreen yet :w00t:

It's strange to see The Beatles have just one entry in the entire top 40 (well, 2 but only one studio album) considering what an iconic and all-conquering band they are. Made even more bizarre by the fact that that one studio album is the highest selling studio album of all time full stop. Elvis Presley is also curiously missing from this list.

 

SPLHCB is of course a complete classic and the ultimate example of an album that everyone knows even if they haven't listened to it.

Let us join together and listen to the masterpiece that is "A Day In The Life". :D

It's a fantastic track! :wub:

Agreed. :wub:

Abba Gold :wub:

 

What a fantastic album, every single song is amazing - one of the best Greatest Hits collections ever!

01. GREATEST HITS- Queen

RELEASED: 1981

PEAK POSITION: 1

WKS ON CHART: 496

 

Naturally the best selling album of all time in the UK is this greatest hits set from the one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Some sales are culled from the combined package issued in 2000 which saw sales move over the 5 million mark in the noughties, it was also the 4th biggest selling album of the 80s, the 40th best seller of the 90s and the 195th of the 00s (as a standalone product).

 

Did everyone enjoy listening to "A Day In The Life"? :D

Disappointed they didn't play Bohemian Rhapsody. :(

Thanks everyone for your company through the thread which was dramatically underprepared!! :D :o
As I said earlier, not a fan of Queen. Bohemian Rhapsody is obviously one of THE greatest rock songs ever, and a classic song full stop - one of those songs EVERYBODY knows!

As I already said in this thread, I prefer the tracklisting of this to that of GHII. I assume Radio 2 must be playing Bohemian Rhapsody? It wouldn't make any sense to play anything else :D

 

EDIT: Oh, they're not? Hmph.

Where was jagged little pill, I thought that would be near come on over on the list?

 

 

 

It went out, It had sold 2,600,479 on the Chart updated in June 2009

It was No.31 in the 2006 list so must have been outsold now by 10 more albums.
