June 2, 20232 yr subtle definition, many debut albums would be a "compilation" of all singles up to the release. 'Without Fear' wasn't though.

June 2, 20232 yr Adele’s He Won’t Go reaching Silver is a nice surprise. Only two tracks left to be certified before the entire standard tracklisting has been certiifed - "Take It all" & "I'll Be Waiting". Funnily enough 25 also has two tracks left to be certified before the entire standard tracklisting is certified - "River Lea" & "Sweetest Devotion". 19 has 5/12 songs certified from the standard tracklisting. 30 has 4/12 certified currently (I believe "My Little Love" & "To Be Loved" will likely be certified in the next year, with the other tracks many years away unless some go viral on tiktok or something like "Love In The Dark" did or to a lesser extent like "Water Under The Bridge").
June 5, 20232 yr The BPI website has now updated with the 2nd June certifications. Nutbush City Limits has now been certified silver. Sadly it is the Ike & Tina version rather than her solo version, but still good to a certification has come out of the surge in interest in Tina's back catalogue.

June 5, 20232 yr 'The Essential Michael Jackson' must have been stuck just short of 5x platinum for ages while it was having no streams allocated to it I guess :lol: 'High By The Beach' being certified we love to see :heart:

I had the Queen GH on much lower, but guess it depends on counting those GH1+2+3 and all
June 7, 20232 yr The Queen Compilation has sold 6,574,000 UK copies since 1981. From 7,200,000 certified sales subtract the 626,000 'Extra Sales', that it was given in 2006. This consisted of 560,000 from 'The Platinum Collection', (2000), and 66,000 from a Double Queen Compilation, which was released in 1994. Some think these extra sales are continuing to be added, others say it was a one-off.
