Hi Chartmasters! First of all, thank you for all your hardwork in doing this. So I was just wondering. I noticed that why is Womanizer only 3.2 million in your singles CSPC list when its digital sales in the US alone are at 3.5 million. I haven't looked at her other singles in the list yet cause I'm not familiar with all of her digital sales but I know for a fact that Womanizer stands at 3.5M in the US alone. Am I missing something?
Hey Stephen I was wondering if Britney is gonna be updated soon by any chance? This may seem highly unlikely but I used the discogs method from one of your articles to check her Album sales and I’m not sure if this is correct in the zone is listed in the US at 3,335,000 Million but when I used discogs the US Owners are at 1,483 and I compared The Evanescene Album “Fallen” from 2003 because you recently studied that one and it’s from the same year anyway that had 4,051 owners in the US against 1,483 owners for In the zone factoring in the discogs methods I got 4,350,000 Sales for in the zone in the US because 1,483 and 4,051 creates a 36.6% gap in sales while adding the fact that Britney’s album is collected 0.47 times more on discogs I got my result, Am I missing something? Or is Britney Album sales severely underestimated? It’s weird because I’ve seen so many correct sales reports from you guys but discogs says another story for me, could someone please help on this one on what in the zones current US sales are please? The discogs method is pretty confusing sometimes I’m sorry
I wonder how many albums she sold in 1999 and 2000 WW. She was certified 13x plat for BOMT December 2000 The same month oops it was certified 8x plat. BOMT came out January 1999 so that means Britney sold over 21+ million albums in America in under two years. Besides Mariah Carey with Music box-Merry Xmas-Daydream and Celion Dion with Falling into you- Lets talk about love I don’t think any other female artists Have shifted so many album units and such a short amount of time Compared to Mariah , Celine , Britney.
Hi Chartmasters! I was wondering if you had any official sources regarding Blackout and Circus Italian sales because I wanted to update Britney’s Wikipedia page. I only found Musica&Dischi 2008 YEC where they stated that Circus had sold 40k copies https://archive.ph/20120906225443/http://www.musicaedischi.it/notizie_dettaglio.php?id=2599 so I guess that it sold about 15k more in 2009 considering that it was still charting. But I cannot find anything else. Thanks in advance! And great job by the way! Keep up the good work!
singles CSPC means singles and albums Equivalent units. 3.2 million single CSPC means the single sales were turned into album Equivalent units alone with the single strength from the orginal album sales also with some stream Equivalent units
Did you add her REMIX albums? Can we have a breakdown by market/country??
You said you do have a screenshot of the tweet,So you did the screenshot by yourself Whats the original account or archive?
And how can it even be an official statement from Jive when the text says the label closed and that she is now at RCA? Whats the original account?
On the 20th year anniversary of oops I did it again billboard released a statement that Britney sold 150 million albums to date. Could you please explain the discrepancy between your stats and billboard, which is a very credible source?
