The new RIAA certifications are great but there are still unanswered questions! The sales for the We Will Rock You Edition of Greatest Hits are allocated to which release?
The Platinum Collection is strange as well, it's allocated 2 different release dates and so has 3 platinum awards in total. Does this allow for the multiple disc format in the USA or not? Has The Platinum Collection sold 3 Million copies (9 Million discs) in total or is MJDangerous correct. Lots of information to find out.
Would love to hear form Hernan, Ed Wood and MJD on these new RIAA certifications, you've all been quiet on this thread for a while!
also made in heaven riaa gold certification but 350.000 sales according to chartmasters
queen online store says made in heaven sold 20 million. that's number too exaggeration
Taylor co-wrote One Vision and Innuendo with May and Mercury (both are credited to being written by Queen, but Deacon had little to do with either). Songs he wrote himself that were hits include Days of Our Lives (as you noted), Radio Ga Ga, and A Kind of Magic
Innuendo was really written by Freddie. Roger only supplied a few lyrics.
Queen Bohemian Rhapsody gets Diamond status in US.

That bloody song, is a beast. The most popular of the 20th Century...certainly is at the moment....nothing touches it.
Queen greatest Hits has been in the UK top 100 Albums chart for over 17 years!
queen ranked #13 at best selling acts of 2020 in ifpi, do you have an estimate of their cspc now? also the same for the beatles at #20
a day at the races became recently the seventh album of queen to cross 1m equivalent album sales in streaming 🥳🥳
(sheer heart attack coming to be the 8th as it should 💅🏻)
I am curious why the Cosmos Rocks album with Paul Rogers was not included? Will the Live Around the World album with Adam Lambert count?
