It's now only behind 'Every You Every Me' which is also gold certified, with 'Nancy Boy' and 'Pure Morning' silver.

Great to see Cassie's 'Me & U' double platinum 🎉 The OG viral hit from the queen of MySpace

Time to take a look at the certifications!

Wow Everybody’s Fool must’ve sold like nothing in 2004, that’s impressive to be certified today.

Good to see Weezer's Island In The Sun go platinum, great track for the current weather conditions! Also like the two gold certifications for the Beatles this week

Oh lovely to see the understated beauty ‘Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)’ certified gold, one of my favourite Beatles songs.

‘House of Balloons/Glass Table Girls’ is a big highlight from The Weeknd’s catalogue too 🖤
