Last sales update from 2 years ago for Wannabe in the US were 6.8million. Maybe about 7.5 million now! That's both physical and downloads/streaming sales.

Sonny and Cher were certified as Gold as well with the single with I Got You Babe

Apparently there's about 18 more singles/albums certified, BPI are having issues uploading them

US sales Let Love Lead The Way: 13,000 Tell Me Why: 11,000 Voodoo: 10,000

Headlines - 41,000 sales in the US

US (Albums w/TEA w/SEA) - 12/11/2020 : - Spice = 7,998,797 (7,493,124 physical) - Spice World = 4,332,166 (4,186,046 physical) - Forever = 233'104 (214,696 physical) - Greatest Hits = 791',344 (148,109 physical) Greatest Hits doesn't include Victoria's Secret Sales so would be at 1.4 million up to 2020.

Pretty sure the same user who has been posting the US sales for the singles on another forum posted the sales last year for the Greatest Hits. A large chunk of the sales are from streaming, as yeah it only entered low on the album chart. I was surprised too at how high it was.

Oh dear, didn't realise it was that bad!

Pretty sure the last update for the Greatest Hits album in the US was just over 1 million sales and that doesn't include the 600k sales from Victoria's Secret. So their album sales could be close to 14 million now.

Did they perform Holler on any American show? I'm sure they performed on the MTV Europe Awards but didn't think they ever went to America as a four piece to promote Holler/Forever. It's not the most memorable Spice song so makes sense why it sold less than 100k.

Let me rephrase that, One of Us was one her best recordings in years, that's what I meant to say. There are some good songs on the album (SOS, Fernando, One of Us, Chiquitita) and others that could have been redone (Mamma Mia, Winner Takes it All). But on a whole it was a decent album. But we've all got our own opinions. Yes I think they're talking about Cher's Christmas album not Emma's. It made sense for Emma to do the Christmas album last year, it's a bit too little too late. I hope she doesn't do another Christmas show, I had tickets for Birmingham last year and was gutted when she cancelled.

No it wasn't, yes some of the production wasn't the greatest but it was a commercial success and her highest charting album for 26 years! One of Us was one of the best songs she's ever recorded.

Not really, it didn't chart in the US, so it's sales are good. Remember Viva Forever is on 128,000 so 86,000 for Holler is good.

Thanks for explaining how it works Jay, will be good to see another certification hopefully sooner than 2026 for Mama.

Could Mama and Who Do You Think You Are both reach Silver for individual sales anytime soon? I know they will reach it eventually but any idea when that could happen?
