😂😂 actually Martin I think this RLAAMJR dude is a Spammer and a Spanner, with the rubbish he writes on here.
Why bring that onto the Queen page? If you're gonna go there, The Beatles are at the top in terms of historical commercial success and impact and influence, by far.
These days, Jackson is down at 102nd on Spotify, while (keeping on topic) Queen are the most streamed legacy act.
I think this is the most disliked message ever posted in all ChartMasters HAHAHAHAHAHAH.
stream is about the music, not the person. its queen's music that got remembered
Ok, this will be my last coment in this Quenn thing.
Now with my comment, what the fuck.
If Queen's music is remembered and has more fame, it should be the same with the artist, don't joke.
The only thing that makes posible what you just said is that someone downloads playlists already made and that this playlist has a Queen song and this person (somehow) doesn't know or doesn't care that is done by Queen. This a very, very small minority of the general monthly listners of Queen, 32 million.
Also, this happens with all artists, no exceptions.
Time always tells the truth? Time is showing you that people are actually appreciating Queen’s music more as time goes on. Queen’s music are studied at schools and universities for their complexity, key changes and interesting usages of notes. I am highly doubtful that anyone would be studying Madonna’s music in 40 year’s time.
This is why those equivalent sales means nothing. All Madonna studio albums from the 80s sold more than any studio album released by Queen at the same time, True Blue (over 22kk), Like a Virgin (over 21kk), Like a Prayer (15kk), Queen best selling studio album sold around 11 million copies and is from the 70s . Even her compilation The Immaculate Collection sold more than all compilations released by Queen, if she had another compilation with the same success of TIC she had beat them in those ridiculous equivalent sales. So Madonna albums sold more than Queen albums from the 70s, 80s and 90s, but they're are more successful than her? No way.
Your argument is utter rubbish, Madonnas had her day and Queen are still ploughing ahead and are far more popular with the younger audiences. Queen are standing the test of time far far better than old Madge.
oh, sure you're absolutely wrong. If MJ movie will filmed (as great as BR) his numbers will much higer then Queen's. Don't know what you mean about theatre productions, but Jackson's shows always sucessful. WWRY a song from famous advertisment... Not everibody even know whose it.
There are some incredible figures being reported on the Haven forum by Shireblogger with regards to Queen's UK single Sales.
Reported by Shireblogger May 27th 2020.
In last year's thread I described how "Don't Stop Me Now", "We Are The Champions" and "Under Pressure" had joined "Bohemian Rhapsody" as millionaires. By the end of this year, Queen will have ten tracks into seven figures in the UK, and will overtake Coldplay as the band with the most millionaire tracks.
The 2018 movie has undoubtedly introduced Queen to a generation of new fans. This level of success is not solely down to unimaginative oldies streaming Dad Rock through their Alexas. Queen sold over 4,000,000 singles in the UK last year - more than they sold in the whole of the 1970s.
Towards the end of this year "Bohemian Rhapsody" will become the third track in the UK to pass 4,000,000 sales + streaming equivalent sales, a few weeks ahead of Band Aid, and therefore joining "Candle In The Wind" and "Shape Of You" in the stratosphere.
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody :: 4,000k (December 2020)
Queen - Don't Stop Me Now :: 1,425k (April 2019)
Queen - Under Pressure :: 1,100k (February 2019)
Queen - We Are The Champions :: 1,000k (February 2019)
Queen - I Want To Break Free :: 1,160k
Queen - Somebody To Love :: 1,140k
Queen - Another One Bites The Dust :: 1,120k
Queen - Radio Ga Ga :: 1,000k (in September 2020)
Queen - Killer Queen :: 1,000k (in October 2020)
Queen - Crazy Little Thing Called Love :: 1,000k (in December 2020)
Truly indebted to SB for this information, SB will hopefully address Queen's UK single sales towards the end of 2020 but as he states it would be best to look later in the year as Queen's sales are still very high at present.
