Agree. Tapestry is a timeless classic.

I alternate between it & Dusty in Memphis on my old school cd alarm clock and never tire of either.

Didn’t notice Pulp’s Babies had hit silver last week. Guess it didn’t sell much on original release and not sure how much of ‘The sisters e.p.’ if any, contributed towards classification with it being released in 1994 the year the charts started counting properly.

Snaps to Wanbabe & Gimme More too

That’s ridiculous considering it didn’t make the top 40! I hate people complaining about ACR but… this is evidence that ACR is faulty 😂

'Beaches' certified

'Let The Light In' gold, great song from Lana and (the uncredited?) Father John Misty

"New Religion" going silver quicker than I thought it would! Future platinum top 50 hit!

‘Vroom Vroom’ certified

Highlights: Ghetto Supastar, Black Beatles, What's Love Got To Do With It, Duvet, Get Low, Nuthin' But A G Thang, Hail Mary, Witchcraft, Leader Of The Pack, I Thought I Saw Your Face Today and The Hand That Feeds.

My Favorites

Father Figure(1xP) from George a timeless Masterpiece well deserved ❤️

Also Hall & Oates MANEATER (2xP) and

Tina Turner What’s Love Got Do Do With It (2xP)

❤️

Little Mix - Cannonball

This has been one of the slowest climbs to platinum of a 2010s number one right.

465,000 pure by January 2012, 566k by December 2012. If my math is right, ever since then it averaged out one 57 sales unit every week for the past 14 years.

'Headphones On' being a certified single now is excellent news 🩷

Amazing to see 'I Love You' certified platinum as well *.* neat timing when Fontaines have just started teasing a new era.

Highlights: Heat Waves, Africa, California Dreamin', The Best, I Love You, Obsessed, The Safety Dance,, All I Do Is Win, Killing Me Softly With His Song, Poundshop Kardashians and Love Is Only A Feeling. Also loving Their Law certified again for the Prodigy! Ice Cube's "You Know How We Do It" is missing from the platinum section.

Flopnight being certified double plat we love to see 💪

Glad cannonball finally got platinum even if the girls arnt keen I still love it 🩵

Yay Headphones!! Now hopefully Aquamarine also gets there eventually + the album Gold and Fame is a Gun goes Platinum ❣️
