No way has Desiigner's flop (or is it?) 'Panda' follow-up gone Silver :lol:

 

Nice to see 'It's My Life' get certified following the lead singer's death, it must've sold a fair amount in the 80s too pushing it towards 300k total?

 

Vengaboys getting a second Platinum single (alongside 'Boom Boom Boom Boom')! *_* Though it really should be three - 'We Like To Party' seems to have been certified Gold twice for some reason (in 1999 and 2013), surely that's an error and it's meant to be Platinum now?

 

Great to see 'Just Got Paid' and 'Giant' go Gold already too but that was inevitable.

Not got any info but yeah it must be at ~300k in total. #46 in 1984, #93 in 1985, then #13 in 1990.

 

'We Like to Party' has been certified Gold twice but I don't think the second certification was meant to be Platinum. The second certification comes from the big July 2013 update when the BPI changed the rules to allow any song to have its certification updated as soon as it passed the threshold and I think they just overlooked the first certification due to the titles being different (one has 'The Vengabus' in brackets whilst the other doesn't). I am surprised that 'We Like to Party' hasn't been certified Platinum since, though. It sold 475k in the 90s whereas 'Up & Down' sold around 400k - 'We Like to Party' is surely the more popular song, no?

'Tiimmy Turner' was a fairly big hit in the US (obvz nowhere near the level of 'Panda' but still) so not surprised that it's eventually trickle streamed its way to silver here.
Great going for Wretch 32's "Tell Me" - I wonder how many other singles of his (e.g., "Hush Little Baby" with Ed Sheeran; "Blackout" with Shakka) are close to their first certification too.

'No Woman No Cry' reached #22 in 1975 and #8 in 1981. Total sales must be over 600k.

 

'Holding Out for a Hero' entered at #96 in 1984 for one week before reaching #2 upon its re-release the following year. It also reached #69 in 1991. 80s sales were an estimated 389k which would put its total at nearly 800k. In August 2012, the OCC revealed its sales to be 550k.

 

'Gasolina' sold 59k in 2005; 141k sold since.

 

'(Something Inside) So Strong' sold around 200k in 1987; 400k to date.

 

'Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'' missed the Top 100 1983 End of Year Chart, at a guess it sold around 150k, which would put it on 350k to date.

 

'Wonderwall' sold 653k in 1995 and 270k in 1996 (923k in total). Those are the figures used at the time and they have since been revised. This certification for sales of 2.4m use the revised sales, however the OCC seem to jump between the original and revised figures. For instance, the September 2017 'Millionaire' update used the original sales. The total for 'Wonderwall' using those original figures now stand at over 2.7m.

 

'FourFiveSeconds' sold 817k in 2015; 383k sold since.

 

'Maggie' May' reached #1 in 1972 when it was released as a double A-side with 'Reason to Believe'. It also reached #31 in its own right in 1976. It sold an estimated 658k in the 70s; 1.058m to date. It had sold 1.028m by September 2017.

'Praise You' sold 268k in 1999; 332k sold since.

 

'Collide' sold 138k in 2011; 62k sold since.

 

'The JCB Song' sold 295k in 2005 and 147k in 2006 (442k in total); 158k sold since.

 

'We Will Rock You' becomes the 4th non-Top 100 Platinum song, 15 months after being certified Gold.

 

'Intro' is officially the best selling song by The xx which is pretty impressive for an instrumental!

 

Relapse sold 421k in 2009; 179k sold since. It was on 591k in October 2018 which works out at 300-400 copies a week.

 

A Day Without Rain sold 418k in 2000 and 115k in 2001 (533k in total); 67k sold since.

Insane that 'Intro' has passed Gold over all of their actual singles but its use on lots of TV shows/adverts/etc must have helped it gain popularity. It's their #1 most streamed on Spotify by some distance too.

 

Great to see Avicii have another certified single although 'Collide' is one of my least faves of his hit singles (not to mention it was ripped off from another of his own singles). 'Panic Room' going Gold / 'Praise You' and 'In My Mind' going Platinum are pleasing also.

Intro is the best instrumental EVER!!!! <3
