Posted August 4, 200915 yr From today's Daily Star: Will Young has announced the release of his first greatest hits compilation. The 30 year old is the only British male artist of the decade to have 4 consecutive platinum albums LRN, YG and all Wills classics will be sandwiched in the package out November 16th Now I have a sneaky feeling they have forgotten about our Rob :o I'm sure that he has out sold Will Young this decade :D
August 4, 200915 yr Oh, now. What counts as a platinum album these days? Is it still 300,000 sales? So what have we had this decade from our boy... Sing When You're Winning (2000) 2.4 million UK sales. Tick. Swing When You're Winning (2001) 2.1 million UK sales. Tick. Escapology (2002) 2.0 million (ish) UK sales. Tick. Live at Knebworth (2003) 600,000 UK sales. Tick. Greatest Hits (2004) 2 million+ UK sales. Tick. Intensive Care (2005) 1.5 million (ish) UK sales. Tick. Rudebox (2006) 600,000 (ish) UK sales. Tick. I make that 7 consecutive UK platinum albums this decade. :unsure:
