Hi Gui!

I actually had "California Love" as an orphan, as it was released 2½ months before the album - and the original version wasn't even on the album, only a remix. Maybe that's unfair of me.

Indeed Thomas, I think it's a bit harsh 😉

The song was used as the lead single of the album, no other song was sent to radio until 3 months after the album release. In the traditional singles history listing of Wikipedia you can see all dates!

Thanks. I've updated the lists. "Only God Can Judge Me" is now 5th on the 5th biggest track race. Very close to 100M. Huge album!

Is 'Off The Wall' eligible for 9X-PLATINUM (or even DIAMOND) yet?

Can I know how much has We are the world sold worldwide? is it possible to know it? Also why isnt it included in his sales if its his song technically?

Do you know if Number Ones passed 20M ?

Seems unlikely. After 3 years its impossible to think it sells 8 million albums at a time when album sales are so weak. These days, even new release from a top selling artist would struggle to sell 8 million physical albums, let alone an album that was released 17 years ago

It's credited to USA for Africa, not Michael.

You are finally getting what you deserve, congrats to MJD and all the ChartMasters team🥳.

I thought Dangerous and Heal the world would be higher because these are are the favourites among Chinese fans.

The Estate said "Michael" album sold 5M+, what do you think ?

How did Madonna issue albums in a much more favourable era?

She had her peak with him and they both released albums in late 90s and early 2000s, Madonna released more.

Hi Jake!

The Stones too released albums in the 90s / early 00s, it isn't that much relevant when we look at the sales environment they had. Invincible is far and away Jackson's weakest album. What makes a difference is the period when an artist enjoys his hey-days. He peaked (obviously) in 1983 and the barycenter of his success through the years isn't that much later. Madonna's one is 6-8 years later, and the market in early 90s was already way bigger than in mid-80s.

What are MJ's digital singles/ringtone sales now (Sept 2020) Vs. Queen?
Are digital singles still selling anywhere around the world?

Guinness book of world records don't track sales ..Elvis isn't anywhere above Mj
