It is now their biggest UK seller, with I Want To Hold Your Hand on around 2.32m by my calculations. "Sun" now on 2.4m sales.

That would involve over 3,000 singles. When is the starting date? When BPI began in 1973 or OCC stats from 1994 onwards?

Look out Sgt. Pepper - Oasis are catching up fast on you. Probably less than 200,000 behind The Beatles. (Pepper is the biggest selling studio album)

Now 5.4m.

Abba GOLD now over the 6 million mark. I assume this is sales from April 1994 - the OCC era? Plus unknown sales from September 1992. BPI gives 22x Platinum on 16/1/25, which is 6,600,000.

Barrett Strong - Money (That's What I Want) - Silver He is outselling The Beatles cover version, from With The Beatles.

Yes - from HAVEN forum. Survivor - Eye Of The Tiger (4x Platinum) 888,628 pre-February 1994 units + 2,400,000 post February 1994 units = 3,288,628 total chart units!

A full list now up on the BPI site. Another platinum single for Elvis. Elvis Presley - If I Can Dream - Rca - Platinum - Single - 18.04.2025 - 15.11.2004

I use the Official Charts website with Edge browser on a DELL desktop computer (Intel i9) and have no problems. It never crashes my PC when I go to different tabs. Never had any problems in the past. I use Virgin Media broadband at 350Mbps speed.

49 58 Alex Warren - You'll Be Alright Kid (Chapter 1) - 42,000 So why is this album not at no. 26?

Thanks for this Top 99 chart. Great info there. The Beatles Red and Blue albums were always fairly close together in physical sales. But now there is an almost 200,000 gap due to streaming equivalent sales. Likewise it is sad to see the demise of 1 due to the way weekly streams are applied.

ABBA - Gold: Greatest Hits - 57,000 Queen - Greatest Hits - 41,000 Any chance of Abba overtaking Queen to have the top selling album of all-time in the UK?

Beatles - Yellow Submarine - Apple Corps - Gold - Single - 14.03.2025 - 16.11.2010 Beatles - Love Me Do - Apple Corps - Gold - Single - 14.03.2025 - 16.11.2010 Both these tracks were certified Silver on 30/10/2020. Now both GOLD. What a co-incidence! What is the statistical probability of that occurring?
