    "Holiday" is now certified Platinum in the UK! @Liam.k.

    It’s a shame that we have so many legendary artists who are under-certified because much of their sales pre 1994 aren’t recognised.

    It was 4th on her most streamed list in September 2023, compared to 8th and 9th for 'Like a Virgin' and 'Into the Groove'. It also had higher post 1994 sales in August 2019 (217k for 'Holiday', 197k f

Finally Madonna has a million 'seller'! She's on track to have four of them by Autumn 2021 ('Like a Virgin' is about 10 months away, 15 months for 'Holiday' and 16 months for 'Like a Prayer').

The list has really changed through the last ten years!!
Like A Prayer will become her biggest stellar in time !

Like A Prayer being her top seller over time would feel very right tbh!

 

It’s moved up the list a lot though I remember a time it was around 8th / 9th.

MATM was beaten to number 1 by Busted .

 

Not sure why this didn’t take off . It’s a decent song !!

I'm guessing it just didn't live up to the hype. It was still way bigger than any of Madonna's releases that year and performed in line with Britney's hits from her previous album.
Those sales are pretty abysmal for such a high-profile collaboration :( It's not a favourite song of mine tbh, but I still expected about 5 times as much in terms of sales!
