Where did you find the top 200?

It was mentioned in ChartsPlus, in the week that it charted!

OCC have just revealed Emma Burton's Top 10 biggest singles: https://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/e...-the-uk__32251/

Nice to see that the OCC has given us updates for WTYSL and What I Am but it would be nice if they actually listed all of the sales, there’s only 10 to post

I guess What Took You So Long? will be passing 300k this year since it's "sold" 5k since May 2020. Still a long way to Gold though (200k).

 

What I Am has done around 2k in the same period of time.

Thanks Liam! :D

 

I wish they had given us more sales than her top 2 too, but it's interesting to have the split in pure and streaming info for WTYSL and WIA:

 

Emma's only chart-topping single in her own right, What Took You So Long? is her most physically purchased and streamed song, racking up 295,000 combined sales, split between 270,000 paid-for sales and 2.9 million streams.

 

Prior to What Took You So Long?'s release, Emma dipped her toe into solo territory, featuring on electronic duo Tin Tin Out's What I Am in 1999. Famously released the same day as Geri Halliwell's solo single Lift Me Up, Emma ended up in the runner-up position that week, and What I Am also ranks second in her solo best-sellers. What I Am has notched up chart sales of 234,000, which includes 225,000 CD and download units, and one million streams.

 

The Top 10 list is still the same order as it was based on the May 2020 sales we got. I wonder if Baby Please Don't Stop has overtaken All I Need to Know yet? They had sold 6,691 and 7,668 respectively by last May.

100k to go gold its 400k gold.

 

Nice to know WTYSL is ticking over some ok sales now.

 

WTYSL does ok with streaming actually, for a medium size hit that doesnt get much promo or radio play, or much playlisting. There is clearly some demand for that track at least
