US Hits of the 21st Century is in 4music atm. Eminem's Stan is at #24 with 880,000 copies sold. I'll update this post with each song from now on. Hope you find the list interesting and/or helpful.

 

#24. Eminem - Stan = 880,000

#23. Rihanna - Diamonds = 900,000

#22. Christina Perri = Jar Of Hearts = 900,000

#21. Black Eyed Peas - Where Is The Love? = 920,000

#20. LMFAO - Sexy And I Know It = 920,000

#19. Lady Gaga - Just Dance = 930,000

#18. Bruno Mars - Grenade = 930,000

#17. Katy Perry - Firework = 940,000

#16. Cee Lo Green - F*ck You = 940,000

#15. Journey - Don't Stop Believin' = 950,000

#14. Pitbull - Give Me Everything = 980,000

#13. Lady Gaga - Bad Romance = 1,000,000

#12. Kings Of Leon - Use Somebody = 1,010,000

#11. Fun - We Are Young = 1,050,000

#10. Gnarls Barkley - Crazy = 1,070,000

#09. Rihanna - Only Girl = 1,090,000

#08. Eminem - Love The Way You Lie = 1,130,000

#07. Lady Gaga - Poker Face = 1,130,000

#06. Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are = 1,190,000

#05. LMFAO - Party Rock Anthem = 1,200,000

#04. Kings Of Leon - Sex On Fire = 1,270,000

#03. Rihanna - We Found Love = 1,290,000

#02. Black Eyed Peas - I Gotta Feeling = 1,370,000

#01. Maroon 5 - Moves Like Jagger = 1,410,000

 

Surprised to see 'Where Is The Love?' so high up but I like that. A classic such as itself deserves sales of that caliber.

 

Looks like Bad Romance is only a few thousand copies away from being a million seller too, seeing as how they round things up on these charts and the OCC hasn't announced such a thing yet.

I did see this listed, but assumed it would be about their performance in America itself, rather that in the UK charts, so didn't bother recording it.

How do you define two hours worth of "should have been Number One" anyway?

 

They were just ones from the 21st C anyway.

 

It was old info anyway - the sales totals look to be from early Feb 2013. :(

I noticed they didn't include Carly Rae Jepsen on the Top 100 US Hits but when I watched the Top 20 she was at no.12 if I remember correctly.
I think the OCC must be goin for the >900k figure for Where Is The Love now, that's two rundowns now!
Carly RJ is Canadian, isn't she?

 

She is, but she wasn't featured in the Top 100 but was in the Top 20 :unsure:

Thank you for getting all of it! I only watched it from Stan onwards :) Interesting list :)

 

I'm sure some of these songs can be added to the 800k-900k section in the million sellers thread :)

Edited by Akaniero

Had no idea 'Fast Car' had sold so much in the download era! :o Was number 87 on the 1988 Year End Chart, so perhaps around 700k in total?

I have 522.4k as at 11/5, so around 539k now. I have no reason to think that this doesn't already include her 1988 sales.
