New analysis coming soon ?
Yes, Old Blue Eyes is coming very soon.
Congratulations and thank you all for the teams’ efforts. Sinatra must have been an absolute nightmare to compile! Looking forward to this one!
Is there an ETA on when the Kanye study will be released?
Really interested in where kanye will land. Hoping Julio iglesias will be next too
Can’t wait for Sinatra’s article. I expect him to be above the 200 mln mark and be in a position between #5 and #10
After the new year.
What year ?)))
In the year 2525
)
I wouldn’t call myself a Sinatra super fan but it will be really interested to see this one. I have a feeling his results will have a similar pattern to Elvis just with fewer EAS. Lots of albums with middling results and a large orphan album.
I reckon around 200 million EAS if I were to hazard a guess. I have no knowledge of his back catalogue outside the high profile big hits though so I’m not sure if I’m just being guided by the scale of his fame rather than his actual success?
Suppose we will find out shortly!
I’m also looking forward to seeing his results. I want to see if he sold more or less than Barbra Streisand.
Please make CSPC for Sheryl Crow
Her debut album is a best seller in the 90s in the United States
second, third and fourth release are eligible to multi platinum certification
Today, it has become known that Pierre Kartner,
AKA Father Abraham, singer/composer best known for his song Smurf Song, has passed away at 87. Dutch media claim this song sold about 25 million copies, which seems like a classic exaggeration. Do you perhaps know how much they’re wrong?
