'Buzzin' going platinum yay for a certification for 'British Bombs' as well.

Thank you for the comments @Jade and @gasman449. It's been fun doing the certifications for 2025. I've now uploaded the first batch of certifications on the 2026 certifications thread if you want to have a look there and comment your highlights! 😊

My Highlights of course Band Aid and Chris Rea and Dead Or Alive ❤️

Dead Or Alive - You Spin Me Round (Like A Record) [2x Platinum]

484,942 pre February 1994 units + 1,200,000 post February 1994 units = 1,684,942 total chart units (or 1.685M)!

I wonder where that puts it in the all time list of Stock Aitken and Waterman productions?

Maybe second behind Rick Astley?

Actually, third behind Rick Astley & Robson and Jerome's "Unchained Melody/White Cliffs Of Dover" which last had a figure of 1,870,000 last year: Best Selling Singles Of The 1990s (Pure Sales)

I think I won’t count that as it was just Stock and Aitken 😁

Great to see Ava Max's Christmas song go Silver. It's a shame One More Sleep from Leona couldn't get a new certification though.

Tension II getting silver way sooner than I expected. Yay!

She always was the most certified albums artist in the UK. This recent cert only extends her lead further.
