Streaming Part 4
And Winter Came… also looks solid with over 79,000 equivalent albums sales and with three tracks surpassing the 10 million mark, and a clear winner in the form of Trains And Winter Rains.
Dark Sky Island registered equivalent albums sales of 93,000 units but this is her only studio album so far falling into the streaming era, so these cumulative sales aren’t particularly great when we come to think of it.
Hi MJD, can we get a breakdown for The Very Best of Enya? It’s the only major release that is missing :))
pleased to know her sales in Ireland!
Hi MJD!
I was just looking over all the estimates and found a calculation error in the album sales total concerning her Asian sales.
Adding all her studio album plus PTSWS compilation, the total for Japan adds for a little over 6m, while sales outside Japan in Asia is over 5m. But in the page where the total album sales listed, her Japanese sales total a 7,26m, leaving just over 4m for the rest of Asia! I hope you’ll correct this soon!
Hi Raffi!
I have some identified Asian sales in my sheet (Shepherd Moons 320k in SK, 225k in Taiwan, The Memory of Trees 250k there, etc), they got ignored from the total! Now fixed 🙂
Did you include the frog prince (French Lesson) soundtrack from 1984?
I looked it up and it was Enyas first project. She wrote 9 instrumentals for the soundtrack.
I would think that should be included
Hi Nathan!
Actually, I didn’t even wonder if that should be included or not for her since I found no sales at all about it. The album wasn’t even released outside Europe and then it was reissued on CD in 1999 on budget label Spectrum in the UK / Germany and both times it had no impact at all – at best it sold a few thousands!
Not a fan of Carribean Blue. Orinoco Flow should outsell it someday, soon
Damned she’s sexy too!
Never in a million years, would I have thought she would’ve had a higher album sales than Britney Spears. But unsurprisingly she have lower CSPC than Britney.
I knew she had great sales, but I didn’t expect her to be this global! She’s one of the few females who truly made it big everywhere – North America, Europe, Oceania, South America and Asia, with the last two being quite hard to crack for most artists!
