January 25, 20205 yr Impressive for Alan Walker considering the song's Spotify weekly chart run of 197-176-172-161-xx - where did that 200k come from? :o
January 25, 20205 yr Mariah's Butterfly randomly passing 300k 22 years after release :cheer: Maybe Rainbow could be next, though I have no idea what its sales are, but it can't be that far off Butterfly. Edited January 25, 20205 yr by tommie
January 26, 20205 yr Impressive for Alan Walker considering the song's Spotify weekly chart run of 197-176-172-161-xx - where did that 200k come from? :o Just shows once again that Spotify is not as dominant as everyone assumes.
January 26, 20205 yr Just shows once again that Spotify is not as dominant as everyone assumes. To be fair, we only know of its top 200 Spotify chart run - for all we know it could've had a long and healthy run outside the top 200, but we just didn't get to see it (well, obviously). It was released four years ago after all. What are its numbers on Spotify in total?
January 26, 20205 yr Just shows once again that Spotify is not as dominant as everyone assumes. just shows the opposite, it's from just being outside the top 200 on spotify sure it's not iTunes sales
January 26, 20205 yr Back when the OCC still compiled a main top 200 Singles chart, 'Alone' by Alan Walker spent just two weeks on the chart. Entered the chart published on 20/01/17 at number 195, climbed to 193 the following week and then dropped off the chart.
January 26, 20205 yr Guess it’s just been steadily accumulating then! I think its chart run would have been longer if it wasn’t for the Christmas songs in its opening weeks as it was released in early December. Anyhow, seems to be a much more popular song than its chart performance suggested! :wub:
January 26, 20205 yr 'Wish You Were Here' is another addition to the list of platinum songs that never went top 40 (I thought it would have been another one that never even went top 100 but it did have a week at #68 in 2012, same week the cover by Ed Sheeran et al. from the Olympics went top 40).

March 7, 20205 yr The Beatles - All You Need is Love - Silver - Released: 2010 Any idea of total sales since 1967?Former Dotmusic poster and sometime Haven poster Chartfacts compiled a detailed list of Beatles singles sales back in 2002. The article is still available to view at beatleslink.net where it was re-posted by Wolf (another former Dotmusic poster). http://www.beatlelinks.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1351 Sales for 'All You Need Is Love' from back in 1967 are given as 550k to 560k and around 560k to 570k to 1987.
March 9, 20205 yr BPI award today. Beatles - Abbey Road - Apple Corps - Platinum 3x - Album - 06.03.2020 - 09.09.2009 Sales (physical, downloads, streams) from 1994. But it should be 8 times platinum (or 2,400,000) for sales from 1969.
