January 31Jan 31 I hadn't checked the thread for a while so only just noticed Solange - Losing You certifying Silver. Also interesting that Steps - Tragedy went Gold by itself (while not previously having been certified Silver - I wonder why BPI missed that?)Mis-Teeq - All I Want certifying Gold A banger!
January 31Jan 31 22 hours ago, DanielCarey said:"reputation" and "folklore" by Taylor Swift have got all of their songs certified.Arctic Monkeys’ debut and ‘AM’ spring to mind too, as does George Ezra’s ‘Staying at Tamara’s’.It’d be a pretty interesting list!

February 1Feb 1 Am I right in saying that the "new look" BPI certifications website seems to have lost all its history?As far as I can see, is no longer possible to view all the certifications for a particular song, just the most recent?

February 6Feb 6 Wow this was a really good week! "Hot Dog" silver is hilarious, I performed that as Fred Durst at a Halloween party last year 😂 also "The Fox" gold! In terms of great songs tho my favourite certs are "Billie Jean" 5x platinum, my birthday number one from the Arctics and "She Moves In Her Own Way" 5x platinum, "Dancing In The Dark" 4x platinum, "Loser" and Muse's version of "Feeling Good" platinum, "Get You Down" gold and the 2 EsDeeKid certifications. Would've been enthusiastic about "All Summer Long" being 2x platinum if Kid Rock wasn't such an idiot Edited February 6Feb 6 by gasman449
