How come I only discovered this forum now!
I am super thankful for all your work @mjd Guillaume on those figures. If you are willing to do an update, we might find some interesting recent figures, particularly on streaming platforms which is not expected from 90's bands so much.
Since Dolores' passing, it seems their views and spins on YT, Spotify have exploded, particularly in the last couple of years!
Linger made it to the 2024 end of year top 100 singles in the UK at number 97. In 6 months, Linger scored an extra 200 millions streams on Spotify when Zombie earned another 140 million spins.
The low key and cheap greatest hits Dreams (not Stars) has also been selling quite well. It got certified Gold status in 2019 in the UK.
A cute little story. I went to Mongolia with a group of 14-16 year old students. I played Linger and the whole group of 18/20 kids sang the song out loud. It was so touching! Their music does not get old 🙂
Peace out,
Stéphane
