It’s only a matter of time before Zombie tops 3 million digital sales. The band fell into obscurity two decades ago but this track remains a stand-out classic. Both Linger and Dreams, well over 1 million each, are also still popular to this day.
The rest of the band’s catalog is far less shiny nowadays, bringing their cumulative to date downloads and ringtones total to only 8,2 million units.
