Oooh happy to see that!

So it took 87 weeks for it to sell the 40,000 copies required to make the jump from silver to gold. That's an average of around 460 copies a week.

So only another 435 weeks and it will be platinum! 😁

That means it should be certified Platinum in 2033

Steps's 2022 greatest hits album, "Platinum Collection", is now certified Gold in the UK.

@-Jay- @Spiceboy @Lee_his_cheeks

Thank you for letting us know! 😍 I wonder how long we will have to wait for What The Future Holds to get it's gold certification? It must be annoyingly close by now surely?

Can’t come quickly enough!

Thanks for the update @DanielCarey !

Hopefully WTFH pt2 will be next with a silver certification.

Why does it say "Tragedy" is now certified Gold? I thought it was 2x platinum...

I believe this could just be downloads/streaming purely going towards Tragedy as its own separate entry?

I had suspected for a while that Heartbeat/Tragedy as a Double A Side had downloads/streams of Heartbeat adding to that single's sales, and that this would be a reason why it took so long for the single to reach 2xPlatinum (this only happened last year).

I'd previously wondered if Tragedy would ever certify by itself, yet that Silver certification never came. But based on this Gold certification, it seems it must have gone Silver years ago, but BPI didn't add it on their database for some reason?

A bit weird and funny at the same time!

Also, it explains why the the double version took so long to get to double platinum.

The chart nerd in me is busy trying to figure out an indication for Steps their single sales from their new era. For now we have:

200.000+ Scared of the dark

? Story of a heart

? Neon blue

? Dancing with a broken heart

? What the future holds

? Something in your eyes

? To the beat of my heart

? Heartbreak in this city

? Take me for a ride

? The slightest touch

? A hundred years of winter

? Hard 2 forget

Can anyone see the streams of these songs at their laptop? Because 100 paid streams = 1 sale/600 unpaid streams = 1 sale. I think most streams are from the UK so we can make an indication. I’m also wondering which versions of a song count towards it’s total sales?
