Yes, it's a completely different platform and will have it's own numbers. That 920m is solely streams on Spotify. Unfortunately Amazon Music (which I also use) just has popularity bars, so there is no way of directly telling exactly how many streams a song or artist has on that platform.

To work around this, an equation has been developed to calculate streams from platforms that do not give streaming numbers for song and artists. This allows us to gain a comprehensive worldwide streaming total, based on market shares etc.

If you check the most recent Frank Sinatra streaming masters article https://chartmasters.org/streaming-masters-frank-sinatra/ you can see the equation is listed. Also if you look at the figures in the tables, you can see the Spotify total is then followed by a comprehensive total. So the first track "You Go To My Head" has 7.3m streams on Spotify but once the equation is used it gives us a comp worldwide total of 13m.

For an act that formed in the early '70s Queens' streaming performance is absolutely out of this world. There are a lot of newer acts that would kill for those numbers...

Yes, their numbers are very, very impressive for such an old act. I think the remaining members have been very astute in keeping their music alive, helping it grow and promoting it to new(er) audiences, through various avenues such as Bo Rhaps inclusion in Waynes World, the We Will Rock You musical, continuing to play their music live, lending a lot of their tracks to advertising and obviously the insanely successful movie.

Queen now have eight albums over a billion streams. Ridiculous numbers for an act that debuted in the early 70's...

Impressive but not as much as The Beatles, who in the next month or two should have 9 albums over 1b, not to mention the 2b streams from "orphan" songs (Hey Jude...etc.), their late arrival on Spotify (12/2015), their last album recorded in the 60s...

Absolutely. The Beatles numbers are also outstanding. Of all comparably sized discographies, they probably have the most consistent back catalogue in terms of hits per album.

As it mentions on one of the pages, before people even knew a Queen movie was going to be made, this website mentioned that Queen would overtake Madonna, even if she released another album. So it wasn't only about the movie. They would've overtaken her anyway.

Looks like Queen are selling their music catalogue for around 1 billion dollars.

Queen's Greatest Hits has just received its 24th Platinum Award in the UK for sales in excess of 7,200,000. It is widely accepted that GH had its sales inflated in 2006 with 560,000 and 66,000 (626,000) sales added from The Platinum Collection and GH1&2 respectively.

However people are now stating that GH's continues to have additional sales added to it from TPC. I was under the impression that the added sales was a one off event and no further sales have ever been added from either of the aforementioned releases.

Can anyone confirm this? even with the 626,000 sales taken off GH still remains the UK's biggest selling album ever.

Best selling albums in the UK according to Chartmasters :

ABBA - Gold 5.80m
Queen - Greatest Hits 5.37m
Adele - 21 5.27m
Oasis - What's The Story 5.12m
Michael Jackson - Thriller 4.76m

In all honesty I've completely lost track of what is included in it's total and what is not. The OCC, especially with albums that featured in the 2006 Best Selling UK albums list, have made such as mess of things over the years, which has unfortunately also filtered through to the BPI and their automatic certification process.

Did they sell 206 million or over 300 million records? Cause every source says something different.

Chartmasters Queen 278,487,000 most accurate figure worldwide. 4th biggest selling artist worldwide and 2nd Biggest ever selling Band, only second to the Beatles.

So that means that Taylor Swift sold more than them? Well, damn. What a let down.

A few page said 315 million though.
