November 21Nov 21 I wonder if ‘I Want It That Way’ is the biggest selling boyband aong in the UK now? Unless i’m missing something obvious.
November 21Nov 21 Didn't realise I Want It That Way was 4x Platinum, that's impressive.Also Waka Waka being 3x Platinum is great. Love that song.

Unless i’m missing something obvious.One Direction - What Makes You Beautiful certified 4xPlatinum back in June! As things stand (based on how quickly both songs went from 3xPlat to 4xPlat), What Makes You Beautiful is on course to beat I Want It That Way to 5xPlatinum too, but only just. One Direction could do it by March 2028, followed by Backstreet Boys in April 2028.https://www.buzzjack.com/forums/topic/260475-boy-bands-bpi-certifications-singles-albums-including-duos-non-pop-acts/

November 22Nov 22 Aw that’s cool for Samantha Mumba. I’m a bit surprised as Gotta Tell You only went Good in March 2025 (if I am correct) and I would have thought it sold way more than Always Come Back To Your Love.Actually I thought Gotta Tell You might have been platinum by now!

I wonder if ACBTYL had a higher total than GTY over the years, but GTY clawed it back since streaming came into play?
November 22Nov 22 I guess of the two, I’d think of ‘Gotta Tell You’ as a classic - but not ‘ACBTYL’ - though I probably like both songs equally.
