October 17, 200618 yr I've asked on UKMIX and here is the answer i got :D Well he's now sold ~15m albums in UK. So x this be 3 & you've got his total worldwide album sales of ~45m, as recently reported in your source. So it's probably about the same UK vs ROW rate for singles : so ~5.450m singles now sold in UK x by 3 = ~16.350m singles sold worldwide (~10.9m outside UK). Then this = ~61.350m total worldwide record sales...& so pretty close to the 60m total also recently reported in your source. I hope he is right ^_^
October 17, 200618 yr Where do they get the 3x UK figure for the ROW? :unsure: Well he has sold 15m albums in the UK. multiply that by 3 and you hae the 45 million worlwide sales so they are guessing it's the same with singles. It's not hard to believe really. I mean nearly 5.5m singles in the UK, meaning over 10 million outside. Sounds reasonable enough to me :drink:
October 17, 200618 yr No. I mean how do they know to multipy his UK album sales by 3 to get a ROW figure? Why not multiply by 2 or 6 or 9? Why 3? :unsure:
October 17, 200618 yr Because he has sold 45 million albums worlwide and 15 million in the UK -_- 15 million x 3 = 45 million :smoke:
October 17, 200618 yr Oh. I thought they were trying to work out if the 45 million was a correct figure in the first place. <_<
October 17, 200618 yr No. They're is no denying he has sold 45 million :smoke: It's singles I was asking for. Anyway, someone should let Rob know he has sold nearer to 60 million then 50 :kink:
October 17, 200618 yr I think he has sold more than 45 million albums. He's been at 45 for about 2 years now. -_-
October 17, 200618 yr At Milton Keynes he announced the IC has now sold 7million copies to date. I don;t know if he was "going large" or not, but I believe everything he says :D
October 17, 200618 yr It was confired on EMI's site it had passed 6.5 million and that was a while back so him saying nearly 7 million would be spot on :D
October 17, 200618 yr I think he has sold more than 45 million albums. He's been at 45 for about 2 years now. -_- :lol: No, it seems correct enough. ^_^ -before Escapology EMI said he had sold over 22m -Before GH he has sold over 32m -before IC - over 38 million - Add IC's 7 million and you have 45m and of course the sales of the GH in the last year :D :drink:
