Hi Nathan! There is no doubt that CITW is Elton's song at 100%. While slightly different, the 1997 release can be compared to U2's album Songs of In...

Hi again Nathan! I agree with everything you said - just a small comment on Miles Davis, I'm sure his CSPC total would be at the very least 40 millio...

Hi Nathan! His cumulative tally is obviously good! The disappointment is more about status vs real sales. I posted Avril Lavigne right now: they both...

Hi Dan! Avril Lavigne is the next one (coming very soon!) since no female has been posted since November, then AC/DC will follow 😉

Hi Lavigner! I'm not comparing Britney with Justin, I'm precisely saying that their careers / periods / pace of release is so much different that it ...

Hi Lavigner! While I agree that JT is someway weaker than what he is supposed to be, this comparison isn't really fair. Britney / Janet / JT started ...

Hi RLAAMJR! How can it not be extraordinary? It isn't enough to pile albums to reach 200m. To get up to 35 albums you already need to be a legend. It...

Hi Michael! Results of switch from teen pop to more mature look / sound are often not that good, but the real question is how would it have gone wi...

Hi QueenBarbra! Come, let's get real, nobody really serious credits Titanic as a Celine Dion album. The BMA are no authority and the Billboard themse...

Hi Pat! Correct, CITW would add roughly 8,9 million. Correct too for Elvis, he should be the last one to get into the Top 10!

In a couple of hours at most 😉

Hi Daydreamer! Careless Whisper is one of the very first songs they have written when they were teenagers, so indeed the process was less professiona...

Hi Martin! Figures of Candle in the Wind will still be provided inside the article. The Lion King figure isn't since as I explained Elton only sings...

Hi Rell! People was definitely not listening to Elton John while playing the Soundtrack! Actually, the version from English-speaking countries is t...

Hi Daydreamer! The more it goes the least I'm tented to include Soundtracks into artists' discographies. Unless the Soundtrack is promoted as a new a...

Hi all! Feels good to be back. I left 6 days to Kenya, got blocked during my trip back to DRC (lasted 36 hours overall) and then I returned home in...

Hi Lin! Thanks for spotting out this error! I have now fixed the article almost completely, Anthony will adjust the Songs chart at the end and then...
