I think you're focusing too much on playlists, Metallica or Zeppelin fans are mostly into albums, not playlists. Metallica for example : Master Of ...

Yes, these rankings I mentioned might be misleading because, just like MJ and Madonna, he's another American superstar who actually had more success i...

The Beatles have released more songs than AC/DC : Abbey Road 27m Revolver 15m Rubber Soul 14m Magical Mystery Tour 14m Let It Be 14m Sgt Peppe...

Much more than I expected, 185m albums sold is insane considering he started his career like 10 years before albums were even a thing... In the US...

Eminem peaked in the early 2000s, when album sales were literally ten times bigger than during the 1960s... You can go on and on with these comparison...

Well, don't trust Buzzfeed articles I guess 😉 The TikTok phenomenon started in early february, about two months before the premiere of Bridgerton'...

Yeah I don't think Bridgerton has much to do with Material Girl's success, the main things that happened are a resurgence in 2019 thanks to Stranger T...

I'd say a little over 17m, i.e. the third best selling album of the last 20 years (just above Evanescence's Fallen).

Nice, I don't expect a Kate Bush-type phenomenon here though, Never Let Me Down Again is far from being their catchiest and most popular song... Bt...

Man, how big is Youtube in Latin America? 😮 Six latin acts in the top 10? Most of them only having like 7 million Spotify followers, compared to 24m ...

Mr Brightside essentially made their career in the US, before that (early 2005) their album had sold about 700k thanks to Somebody Told Me, and a few ...

I assumed it had something to do with Stranger Things, but apparently it's just another TikTok phenomenon according to this article.

What I meant is that the "most streamed albums" tool does not include Careless Whisper (700m streams!) in Wham's album while this article does... I wo...

The problem with this kind of lists is that you end up saying things like "Ringo Starr sold more albums than Elvis"... If you're wondering who are the...

The peaks would be around 40m (MJ, Whitney Houston, Céline Dion...), although that's not including the Titanic soundtrack for Céline, which sold over ...

54m, they probably have about 1m of catalog sales since the last update.

Céline Dion sold over 60m albums in Europe, the Stones around 69m. Dan's list is missing a bunch of acts indeed (Dire Straits, Johnny Hallyday...etc.)...

About 68m (top 20).

ABBA would be #6 with around 70m albums sold (Pink Floyd sold 82m), U2 sold maybe 67m, less than the Stones.

Yes, just above Madonna, who obviously sold much more singles.

Actually I can't think of a pre-2010 album with its least streamed song at 50m+, there's definitely one in 2010 (Kanye's Twisted Fantasy, 65m).

Also, Nevermind's least streamed song (On A Plain) just reached 50m streams, the only pre-2000 album with more streams being of course Dark Side Of Th...

High (2018) has 76m streams. From the 00s he also has Are You Ready For Love, a 2003 remix of a 1979 song, and a close one with the Blue version of So...
