March 23, 20178 yr Heroes is platinum!! :wub: Is this Tove Lo's first platinum single? I think Stay High is still at Gold. Edit: Just realised that Years & Years' 'Desire' has gone platinum. This features Tove Lo so will she get credited for that? Her first two platinum singles in one week! :o Edited March 23, 20178 yr by cqmerqn

Her first two platinum singles in one week! :o I don't think it will, most of its sales were obtained through the original and it doesn't even register in her chart history as far as I know?
March 24, 20178 yr :o at the Dappy album randomly going silver 5 years after release, and love that 5,6,7,8 by Steps has gone gold :wub:
March 24, 20178 yr I don't think it will, most of its sales were obtained through the original and it doesn't even register in her chart history as far as I know? I thought the Tove Lo re-issue sold more?
March 24, 20178 yr I thought the Tove Lo re-issue sold more? Nope, it was on like 400k at least I think by the time the re-issue came about! It doesn't count as a hit for Tove as it was basically just a remix unfortunately.
March 24, 20178 yr From BPI, We have lots of multi-Platinum awards to give out today! 1 album is going 11x Platinum!!! Who could it be? I bet that it is Beatles 1.
March 24, 20178 yr Just been confirmed. 3.3 million sales for @thebeatles' compilation album '1' means that it is now 11x Platinum in the UK! Amazing!
March 27, 20178 yr I would love to see the breakdown in sales-per-year for 'Desire' and 'Eyes Shut' if you have them!
March 27, 20178 yr Desire is now only the third song to go Platinum without making the UK top 20, I believe. First was Dog Days Are Over, followed by Summer of '69. Edited March 28, 20178 yr by JCM20
March 27, 20178 yr Desire is now only the third song to go Platinum without making the UK top 40, I believe. First was Dog Days Are Over, followed by Summer of '69. It peaked at 22!

'Another Love' sold 241k by the end of 2013; 359k sold since. It had passed 400k in April 2015. I would love to see the breakdown in sales-per-year for 'Desire' and 'Eyes Shut' if you have them! I don't have exact data for 'Desire' so I had to make estimations from what is available: Desire 2014: ~50k 2015: ~200k 2016: ~320k 2017: ~30k Eyes Shut 2015: 223k 2016: 356k 2017: 21k

At a guess, 'True Faith' sold ~220k in 1987, putting its total at ~420k to date. The Silver certification should include the ~100k that the 1994 re-release sold. 'Smile Like You Mean It' sold 29k in 2005; 171k sold since. 'Jealousy' sold 270k in 2011; 130k sold since. Viva la Vida... sold 1,087k in 2008, 198k in 2009, ~50k in 2010 and 71k in 2011, meaning it had just passed 1.4m by the end of 2011 and has sold 100k in the past 5 and a bit years. Celebration sold 318k in 2009 and 121k in 2009, putting its total at 439k by the end of 2009. It had sold ~530k by the end of 2013 and ~575k by the end of 2015. I assume the 2x Platinum for In Utero only dates back to February 1994, meaning it has sold 600k in that time. Unsure what it sold in 1993 and January 1994, but I'd guess its total is now 800k+. 1 sold 1.850m in 2000, 402k in 2001, 105k in 2002 and 110k in 2003, putting its total at 2.467m. It passed 2.5m in 2004, 2.6m in 2005, 2.7m in 2006, 2.8m in 2008, 2.9m in 2011, 3m in 2012, 3.1m and 3.2m in 2015.
March 28, 20178 yr Desire 2014: ~50k 2015: ~200k 2016: ~320k 2017: ~30k So the Tove Lo version sold more
