To be fair, flowers is probably one of the best songs out this year in what has been a pretty lacklustre year so far!
Stayin Alive by the Bee Gees has been certified double platinum. I wonder how many copies has sold in total including Physical Sales. ( My estimate for Stayin Alive are 400.000 copies)

I wonder how is it possible for Westlife’s Uptown Girl not being certified 2x platinum yet…. It needed 86k 18 months ago and that year it was shifting ~7k every month… since then they released an album and went on a long UK tour including Wembley and xmas concerts…

^ In the Westlife thread there's figures of 1,060,000 in March 2021 and 1,100,000 in November 2021 for Uptown Girl. That would be a little less than 1.1k a week by my reckoning, which would take it to about 1,177,000 by now. So based on that it would reach 1.2m by September 2023. It really depends on if it's selling faster, slower or about the same since then, but I would be surprised if it doesn't go 2xPlatinum at some point this year.

Yes to all these *_* P!nk getting a 3rd certified single from the Hurts 2 Be Human era. :wub:

I wonder how close “Stay” by Shakespears Sister is to Platinum or at least millionaire status. It was on 305k post-1994 sales in 2019 which put it at just shy of 800k in total.

Based on that it does seem like it's overdue going 2xPlatinum by now, but maybe its UK streaming slowed down for some reason :thinking: Hopefully it'll manage it soon!

'Fitzpleasure' and 'Spanish Sahara' both getting certified together *.* yay for 'West Coast' going gold too, and 'Praise The Lord (Da Shine)' and 'Slide' both going double platinum this week.

James Bay - Hold Back The River (4X PLATINUM)

 

Happy to see this still doing so well. I saw him sing this live once and it was amazing. A shame he hasn't managed another top 10 hit since.

 

Natalie Cole - This Will Be (GOLD)

 

For a #32 hit back in 1975 this must get a decent amount of streams (has ~291 million on spotify actually!). I wonder how big of an impact Dida Ritz's amazing lip sync to the song on Rupaul's Drag Race had on the song's streams. I assume it must've helped it quite a bit.

 

P!nk - Never Gonna Not Dance Again (SILVER)

 

Another silver single for P!nk. Hopefully "Trustfall" will follow soon.

 

Miley Cyrus - Midnight Sky (2X PLATINUM)

 

Happy to see this pass 1.2 million now. I thought it must be getting close. :wub:

That and it's been used in a lot of advertisements and movies, like in The Parent Trap.

 

Kelly Clarkson, Sugababes, Christina Aguilera, Little Mix & P!nk ass getting single certifications is great!

 

Same with Ella Henderson’s album.

Sure Trustfall will follow suit very soon for P!nk.

 

Amazed at the success of LMOLM for Little Mix despite never being a single, one of their best ballads.

 

Surprised Ella has only just got silver for that album.
