We’re a 53 week year this week right, so 10 weeks to go not 9. That could make the difference for Rein Me In!

‘Golden’ becomes the third (and final) song this year to reach 1 million for the second year in a row.

'Lush Life' will become the fourth this year to reach 1 million for a second time, as it also did so in 2016.

From what I can tell, 'Perfect' had the previous highest total of anything in its second highest year with 1.218m in 2018, so 'Ordinary' has already surpassed that.

Great Expectation in and Go out this week!

Go-ing out

Mr. Brightside and Billie Jean both on over 700k...what's the record number of yearly single sales for a song that is over 20 years old? Or even over 40 years old?

Over 20 years old I think is still '(Is This The Way To) Amarillo' which sold just over 1.1 million in 2005, slightly more than the combined sales of 'Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)' in 2022.

Over 40 years old may well be 'Billie Jean' already - 'Dreams' did about 715k last year, which may have been the previous best.
