Well I thought I'd create this thread because there's not a Calvin Harris forum and I've noticed an increasing number Calvin fans on BuzzJack quite recently and I for one am very impressed with his latest album and its extremely smart singles choices and can't wait to see what he does next. I'm also curious, I was wondering if anyone could tell me the sales for '18 Months' and all of its singles including 'We Found Love' please?

 

Let the Calvin stanning begin.

Sales taken from vidcapper's year to dates and that list of the biggest selling dance songs of the 21st century that was put up some time ago.

 

641,600 - 18 Months

 

1,288,400 - We Found Love

500,000 - Bounce

480,000 - Feel So Close

450,000 - Sweet Nothing

419,000 - Drinking From the Bottle

380,100 - I Need Your Love

350,000 - We'll Be Coming Back

340,000 - Let's Go

??? - Thinking About You

Good to see the worst two singles as his lowest-sellers from 18 Months, but I'm disappointed that the third worst is essentially the highest-seller! :( "I Need Your Love" and "Sweet Nothing" are miles better than everything else from the album, excluding "We Found Love".
I'm surprised that Bounce is the biggest selling song (excluding WFL). It just didn't feel as big as I Need Your Love, Sweet Nothing, Feel So Close and Drinking From the Bottle were. But I'm not complaining as Bounce is my favourite :D
Bounce has NOT sold half a million copies, has it? I'm sorry, that's just utterly absurd.

Excuse me, Bounce is the best from this era!

I think the quality of the music has always been consistent with Calvin, I think the strength of this era was the release strategy by releasing the singles made and then making the album into a solid collection of all the tracks! I doubt he will ever be able to replicate this success but I'm excited to see what he does next, I think he should stick to the collaborative formula especially if the new Alesso track is anything to go by!!

We'll Be Coming Back

Bounce

I Need Your Love

Awooga

Feel So Close

Thinking About You

We Found Love

Sweet Nothing

I saw him live (before he gave up singing) just after he released Ready For The Weekend and I have to say it was one of the best gigs I've ever been to. I hope he returns to singing again for his next album as well as doing the collaborations.

Nothing beats Sweet Nothing for me. His best from this era and only behind I'm Not Alone and Girls from his overall catalogue.

 

He cannot do wrong, though. I love every single he's ever released.

 

He's Godvin Harris for me :lol:
