heartbreaking the way Headlines was managed. Such a beautiful song and still played loads by me. Wish they just did one release date and at least they would have gotten a #5

actually the whole reunion could have been managed better.

I am so thankfull to had the opportunity to see them live and get a GH to close their discographu with dignity but could have been done so much better

(Date = when the sales figure was revealed)

 

Pleasingly up-to-date! Nice to have all but one of their singles have a sales figure from within the last 12 months! All of them include streaming, apart from Holler and possibly Headlines, but I doubt the streaming contribution for either of these songs is particularly significant anyway.

Awesome, thanks!

 

Shame about Holler being so low. Criminally underrated.

 

And I feel like it will be a matter of time till Say You'll Be There AND Spice Up Your Life pass the million mark :wub:

 

Am I right to think that if that happens they will be the only group in history to ever get to 4 million sellers??!!

I can't believe that the GH album sold more in the first week then FOREVER .

Really surprised by this .

Awesome, thanks!

No the Beatles had 6:

1. She loves you (1.9 million)

2. I want to hold your hand (1.7 million)

3. Can't buy me love (1.5 million)

4. I feel fine (1.4 million)

5. Day tripper / Can we work it out (1.4 million)

6. Hey Jude (1.1 million)

 

They would be the only Girl Group in history to do it, no other girl group has had more than one million seller (I think only Atomic Kitten and All Saints have had million selling singles Whole again and Never ever), not sure if Little Mix have achieved any with the help of streaming?

Ps I'm gonna go download Say you'll be there and Spice up your lifeon itunes so give them an extra sale lol

 

26/09/2017 - 991,789 - Say You'll Be There

126/09/2017 - 910,001 - Spice Up Your Life

 

:P

2 become 1 should surely be certified 2 x platinum this Christmas. Its streams go through the roof over xmas and streaming is just growing and growing.

Jay Boy you lazy biatch get this thread updated! :funky:

I really need to!! Will try and find a moment asap *.*

Do you have the top 200 for England united single and It's only rock n roll?

Thanks

'Spice Up Your Life' is the Official Charts' Flashback this week.

 

The song opened to huge first week sales of 321,000 and finished as the 10th biggest single that year. Its total sales stand at 887,000 in the UK, while the song has been streamed 4.5 million times.

Total sales stand at 932k.

So SUYL has 'sold' 22k in 7 months. I guess we can assume SYBT has crossed the million mark now then.

:wub: Thanks for posting, Liam! That's a nice increase! I wonder when SUYL will become a "millionaire" - maybe in another couple of years at this rate?

 

So SUYL has 'sold' 22k in 7 months. I guess we can assume SYBT has crossed the million mark now then.

Obviously 910k and 932k are approximates, but it works out as SUYL selling roughly 102 sales per day since its 19th March update. If Say You'll Be There had also sold 102 sales a day since its last update (back in July), it would have become a "millionaire" this week. :o Maybe even sooner than that, given it most likely achieves higher streams than Spice Up Your Life (it's higher on Spotify). It'd be nice to have confirmation. It's a pity that it didn't do it in time for the OCC's published list. :(

We have a new total for Greatest Hits - 515,397 :cheer:

 

(Sorry that I've not fully updated this thread for months, it's a bit of a daunting task... I'll try and get it done, slowly but surely).
