Don't know what Queen's award is. Was already 22 x Platinum on 10/8/2020. Is it now 23x Platinum?

Sgt. Pepper was already 18 x Platinum on 10/8/20. Clearly a mistake.

Bob Marley Legends was previously 13x Platinum

Simon & Garfunkel Bridge over troubled water was previously 11x Platinum

didn't realise Pixie Lott's debut is now 3 x Platinum

BPI have made some adjustments to their awards. The following have been removed. (duplication)

 

Beatles - Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - Apple Corps - Platinum 18x - Album 26.11.2021 - 09.09.2009

Bob Marley & The Wailers - Legend - Tuff Gong - Platinum 13x - Album - 26.11.2021 - 08.05.1984

Simon & Garfunkel - Bridge Over Troubled Water - Columbia - Platinum 11x - Album - 26.11.2021 - 20.08.2001

 

But this remains.

Queen - Greatest Hits - Virgin - Platinum X - Album - 26.11.2021 - 03.01.2011

I assume it is now 23 times platinum i.e. 6,900,000. The number is not visible on the BPI web site.

if last summer it was platinum x22, makes sense that is now platinum x23

it's already done more than 200K this year and could well have done 100K in the 2nd half of 2020

Queen now officially confirmed as 23 times platinum by BPI.

Soon, it’ll be the first album in the UK to have sold 7 million copies.

The Music Chronicle 1981 explains, over two pages, with a year-by-year breakdown, how Queen's Greatest Hits has sold anything between 5,375,000 copies and 8,475,000 in the UK, depending on what you include and what you don't.

Santa Baby! :yahoo:

Looked at the BPI website & saw it went silver on 22.12.2017, gold on 20.11.2020 & now Platinium, seems like it could be a million 'seller' in a few years!

The power of Christmas eh.

 

Not sure why it's listing the label as 'Rhino' though :unsure:

 

 

didn't realise Pixie Lott's debut is now 3 x Platinum

 

That was a surprise to me too. I forget how big her first album was.

Pixie Lott’s album has been close to 900k for years, obviously selling very slowly.

That makes so much more sense now. For some reason I had the singles certification criteria in my head. I was thinking 1.8mill was a lot. Haha

Think it went Gold in 2019?

 

Edit…no you’re correct, it was November 2020.
